"Is it customary to sit with your harem during an official operation with high-class officials?" Salkey asked in annoyance.
Marie, Charlotte, [and] Riley turned murderous gazes to the man.
Salkey trembled reflexively.
Helix chuckled and patted Marie on the head.
Then he gave the man a mocking smile.
"Surely you jest, Chief Salkey." Helix chuckled.
"This is not acceptable by Earthian standards.
However, yesterday, four soldiers tried to kill me in [your] jurisdiction."
Masov and Salkey's eyes widened in surprise.
"Chalk it up with a Thymian Knight, five guards, two nobles, and a dozen people have tried to kill me in three days." Helix said with a slight smile.
"Eight of those happened before my address, and I was asked to be held in confinement on treason charges.
Forgive me if I want to keep my overpowered partners from getting moody on our way to show you our power."
