บท 71: How Can I not be?

Lyon retracted his weapon and glared at the head of the clan. This battle was supposed to be a life and death one, what did it mean to stop it just before he finished the opponent?

"What is the meaning of this?" asked Lyon despite his fatigue. The sword had taken so much of his vitality, so fighting another battle was almost impossible. Even so, he didn't worry about what's gonna happen to him. He knew Ryona would do something before anything bad happen.

The head of the clan looked at Lyon calmly despite his tone. She was really calm and collected through in and out. Nobody could guess what she was thinking. Especially with those snake-like eyes, people could feel the cold radiating from it.

The crowd was also eager to know what was going to happen next. The head never goes back on her words before, so this outcome really surprised them. What was going on probably deeper than their knowledge?
