"I was about to kill someone. If Aldrich hadn't stopped me, I would be the one responsible for her death" Carl sat next to a tree near the Arena, trying to process what had happened during the match.
"But she called my mother bitch, then, sudden rage took over me" he closed his eyes as the bloody figure of Millie kept popping up in his mind.
"Was it the shield?" he remembered that his mind had gone blank as if his emotions had been cut off, and all he could feel was rage against Millie.
"I know I absorbed the shield, but can this shield resist anything? Even emotions?" Carl had only used the shield as Aldrich had told him, as he knew nothing about how to use the shield.
"We could kill the girl for you", a tall and young man walked towards him. It was the leader of a prominent guild, trying to rope in Carl to utilize the shield for the guild's benefit.
"No need. I don't want any unnecessary blood on my hands, and she has paid for what she said."
