Bab 286: Night Raid (1)

"You're bluffing!" Erik roared in denial as the heroes in the crowd subconsciously began to back away from Kace's imposing figure.

"Do you really want to try me?" Kace's voice sounded menacing as he practically dared them to put him to the test.

A tense standoff occurred as the two figures attempted to stare each other down. Erik was frantically trying to figure out the odds of Kace telling the truth with his threat. Whereas Kace himself was silently hoping that he would not be forced to reveal his hand to the heroes so soon. Basically, Kace's threat had created a situation where neither of them could genuinely afford to back down.
