The barrier absorbed the impact of the attack before it dissipated into fragments of light.
Garrett snorted, silently cursing Hervy's powerful family. If not for them providing Hervy the Artifact, his attack would have taught him a good lesson to keep his mouth shut.
"Go back to perving."
Without turning his eyes away from the fantastic view, Hervy replied, "It's called appreciating worldly affairs."
Just then, Lily said via Voice Transmission, [Thank you, Hervy.]
Startled, Hervy raised an eyebrow.
[Hmm? Why are you thanking me for?]
With a blush across her cheeks from the earlier intimate display, Lily replied. [For distracting my brother.]
