"Kneel before Emperor Callant!" One of the higher-grade imperial guards ordered as he slammed his staff on the ground.
At that moment, everyone knelt, except the half-wolf. His gang members were confused by this lack of obedience, and the occurrence made the Emperor arch his eyebrows briefly.
"Luke, what are you doing? Kneel down." Amelia whispered.
"Kneel down? Why would I kneel? At the moment, it is the Emperor who owes me something." Luke stated.
Ayumi Yamazaki's heart raced as if there was a lion stalking her, but she didn't think to turn around to question the half-wolf's attitudes.

"What! Insolent man, put yourself in your place!"
"Downey, calm down, let's hear what he has to say." said the Emperor with an overbearing smile.
