[Filler Chapter]
Leonel, Isolde, Roz, Avaris, and Lethargia
=======
"I'll be on the sidelines, cheering you on, of course," Avaris replied with a nervous laugh. "Not like I'm scared or anything, but I have Lethargia to worry about. She's asleep, and she needs me in case something happens."
The others looked at him with a mixture of disbelief and suspicion.
"Why are you a warlord if you're scared?" Leonel asked bluntly, his tone accusatory.
Avaris frowned, his pride wounded. "How rude! I'm a warlord because I'm strong, of course. One of the strongest demons in the entire Netherworld!"
"If you're strong, you can take care of this demon yourself, then," Isolde challenged.
Avaris looked away, muttering under his breath, his facade crumbling under their scrutiny. "I'd like to, but as I said, I need to take care of Lethargia."
