Meanwhile, Herman knelt down in front of Bai and his grandson, and remained silent for a long time, his dead, empty eyes staring at the floor. He was hoping he could handle the shame, but he couldn't. He was losing it.
The patriarch whispered barely audible:
«I… I apologize… for…»
«Stop mumbling like a little girl! Apologize properly, lying scum!» – Kyon interrupted him with undisguised scorn. He would never miss an opportunity to get some darkness in his nucleus.
Gloating laughter rolled down somewhere from the Stone zone.
A corpulent spectator in the stands didn't only weigh but also laughed for ten people.
Herman couldn't breathe, he wheezed as if struck by some terrible disease. His face took an unhealthy shade of grey, his bulging eyes popped out of their orbits. Suddenly, everyone with cultivation at least a stage stronger than Hernan's could feel that he had become a stage weaker. It was so humiliating that patriarch Brown felt like he had soiled his pants in public.
