Before Matias could even look up and glare at Kyran, the wooden staff in Kyran's hand shifted and the top of Matias's head.
"Pipe down," he told Matias and hit his head one more time.

Even Mimi, who initially did not view Kyran favorably for taking her sister's opportunity to become Chairman Noir's disciple, was now looking at him in a different light.
On the other hand, Millie's eyes sparkled as she looked at Kyran. She initially jumped to his defenses to appease the crowd's opinion about him and, at the same time, divert Matias, who was backed by the Lumley Family, attention at her. At least, if Matias's attention were on her, as a member of the Courtenay Family, any exchange between them would not escalate.
