บท 197: A Black Swan God

Lovushka grinned wider. "I'm not the God Musae. Just like how the puddle of wax was no longer a candle."

Ronin gripped him tighter. "Don't give me lies. It's your nature as the god of art to embellish stories."

"Embellish, yes. Beautify them. But I never lie." He smiled. "That's something you do, Lord of Darkness and Deception. Even to yourself."

And then.....

He took off his necklace, aiming to bash it to the ground!

Ronin reached out and yelled with his One Word Command. "Stop!"

But it did not work on him, and he simply gave a ballerina spin to kick Ronin in the face as he reached for the falling pendant!

"Oh, pardon me." He placed a hand on his lips, giggling like a schoolgirl. "Force of habit."

Ronin did not care that his tooth got chipped by the kick and he earned a bruise on his skin. He spat out the broken tooth and blood, holding the pendant.
