Sylus monitored his mother and Erica for a while.
Seeing that they were still conscious, he turned his attention back to his father, who was standing a short distance away from him.
Even though she was frightened by the presence of the king, Zani did not back down; she still stood in front of Sylus, willing to protect him at all costs.
Martin examined her.
An insect.
Sigh.
"Alfred, get rid of her," he ordered.
"As you wish."
Alfred wasted no time.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Zani and grabbed her by the neck.
Of course, Zani fought back.
She spat in his eye, causing Alfred to stumble backward and release Zani.
As soon as she touched the ground, Zani wanted to zoom forward, only for Sylus to hold her by the hand.
He pulled her close and immediately covered her eyes, then whispered something to her.
Midway, Alfred was already back on his feet and was heading towards Zani.
Until Sylus uttered,
"You are deep in slumber."
