Jaws dropped all around, and the brief silence that ensued Aldrich's retort was choking the breath out of almost all the Dreamers.
There was a slight smirk on Trifon's face, and just a few steps ahead, Drago was letting out an exaggerated smile. But none had the time and presence of mind to catch the pair of father and son. All were looking at Aldrich as if seeing a dead man standing in front of Death itself.
When the shock retreated out of the Dreamers' minds, an uproar originated among them. Three swords materialized in the hands of Vivi, Sonja, and Enok, and they lunged at Aldrich. Even the fourth girl took a step forward slightly, but it lacked the intensity of other threes.
Aldrich, seeing the powerful bursts of Mana coming towards him, didn't move. Instead, an evil smile came upon his face which, and from the characteristics of his mask, this smile could be seen by all the Dreamers near or far.
Humph!
Thump!!!
