A menu materialised before Zafron's eyes:
[Heart rate increased]
[Qi output dangerously high]
[Berserker mode activated ]
Zafron's vision began to swim but through it all, his eyes continued searching for Matilda. But he couldn't see her, which caused his blood to run cold. She wasn't where he'd last seen her. Instead, she stood near the edge of the arena, and beside her...
Zafron's eyes narrowed as he recognized the figure next to Matilda. The Governor. Anger bubbled up inside him, threatening to overtake even the Berserker Mode's influence.
"What the hell is he doing here?" Zafron growled, his fists clenching at his sides.
[Oh lovely, another complication. Shall we add a rampaging herd of elephants to really spice things up?] Calista quipped.
Near the edge of the arena, Matilda struggled to maintain her composure as the Governor stood uncomfortably close.
