Chapter 67: (LXVII) Challenge

"Why are you interfering with my challenges!" Elissa shouted, exiting her office and beating on Zuk's door. 

"What are blabbering on about now?" The wart-faced goblin shouted, swinging his door open and jabbing her in the stomach, which was his eye level. 

"Don't play stupid! Why did you challenge Jackson?!?" She yelled, grabbing Zuk by his long, elastic ears and raising him into the air. 

"Oy! Oy! Oy! Put me down!! I didn't do it!" He cried, struggling to escape Elissa's grasp.

"You lying sack of shit!" She growled, slamming him back against the wall and pinning him there.

"I swear I don't know what you're talking abo—"

"It wasssn't Zuk; it wasss me." A hulking lizardman said, stepping forward. He was tall and muscular, his broad shoulders towering over all other Floor Guardians. He had a long face with tough, interlocking scales covering his body.
