บท 735: Them

"Are you trying to piss me off too? What was that for?" Maxim snapped with an absolutely disgusted look on her face. She was so mad at the sudden lull after Skullius' attack that her Genuine Incarnation collapsed, and she began to take eager steps towards Skullius.

He looked to be minutes away from dragging Skullius off to a dark cave, and dissecting him, given the way he was staring in wonder.
