Emery, with a calculated certainty, believed that the Kronos faction wouldn't risk causing significant harm in a city as close to Golden City. His intentional taunting of the grand magus was a deliberate move to assess the grand magus power. However, keen on preventing any collateral damage and ensuring the safety of the others, he chose to transform the situation into a one-on-one duel between them.
Surveying the sizable holes in the castle walls caused by their clash, Emery turned his attention to the imposing figure of the elderly grand magus before him. With a wry smile, he remarked, "Amazing, powerful enough to break some walls."
The irritation in the grand magus expression deepened, and he retorted, "I want to see your face after I break all your bones." As he spoke, the grand magus channeled magical energy into his fists, ready for a devastating assault.
