"Argh… no, I'm not here for that but I still think you're cute though when you're angry." Joren lightly laughed as his chest was slightly caved in him while his two forearms have been thoroughly crushed.
Allecto was speechless due to both the reasons that Joren could still talk in his situation and also, to still call her cute after all that.
"Don't… don't think I'm that naive!"
She shouted before flusteredly rolling her eyes away. It took a moment before she raised her fist and threatened.
"Don't make me any angrier, you're not my target."
"But how is Nebarius your target then?" Joren asked which makes sense in the big picture, "Is there a need to kill him?"
'Is he seriously trying to protect Nebarius?'
Not just Allecto but others as well were confused by this. They couldn't understand Joren at all. Not only did he interact with Nebarius far shorter than anyone else in the palace, but Nebarius himself also looks at Joren with contempt.
