All the officers in Jax's team moved.
The tent was suddenly filled with different color arrays as they roused their magic.
A few of them took out their staffs, while the others took out swords, spears, or crossbows. All of them aimed their weapons at Cade.
Jax, on the other hand, did not move and only glared at Cade.
Similarly, Cade was not bothered by all the weapons aimed at him. His eyes were fixed only at Jax.
As the next Regis Patriarch, he obviously knew who Jax was. He was also aware of what type of magic he had and his level. And to be honest, Cade would just be bullying them if he made a move. He did not want to do that.
He requested to handle the situation because he sensed Jax had purposely let them know the army's movement. If this was true, then there was room for negotiation. The other elders would be able to handle it; however, in their current situation, if they wanted to negotiate, the talk must be between two representatives with authority to decide.
