Without a single hint of reluctance, Chief Brog took a full swing at the bars in front of him as the two first year prodigies braced themselves for an attack.
However, to Satsuki and Jax's surprise, the jail cell remained tightly shut. They both squinted perplexedly at the massive Orc behind the bars, who was chuckling at his own delight.
"These bars are made of magically infused 'Emeraldine' metal..", remarked Chief Brog with a satisfied smirk on his beastly face. "Even the most powerful weapon wouldn't be able to break through."
Jax raised an eyebrow before he almost popped a vein in fury. "Then, what the hell was that for, you pigface?!"
"That was clearly a threat, ossan..", stated Satsuki as she sheathed her overly deadly sword to safety. "That can add up to your crimes, you know.."
The Orc chief simply nodded while keeping his beaming expression on him. "My apologies.. I'm merely showing you that you have nothing to worry about even if I have a weapon in my possession.."
“Through his actions alone..”, Jax continued. “I saw that being the best is not just about getting stronger than everybody else.. but it’s about being the best so that I can show those who’re weaker than I am how to be stronger. In that way.. I can protect as many as I can by teaching them how to fend for themselves when the time comes they have to.”
