บท 586: Fighting Constructs

Dekai stared down at Atticus and the others from the fifth summit with a narrowed gaze. One of the sanctum instructors stood bowed behind him, having just explained something to him.

'I didn't think it was that bad,'

Dekai had orchestrated the situation intentionally. Everyone knew about Cerron's interest in Joana and his hot-blooded personality, making Cerron the perfect candidate for Dekai's plan.

Before Atticus left the fire sanctum, and he was sure it would be very soon, he wanted the boy to experience a real battle using just fire. This was where Cerron came into play.

However, Dekai had miscalculated the extent of Cerron's history with Atticus. The instructor behind him had just informed him about Atticus's connection to the decline of Cerron's family.

'If I hadn't acted immediately, he would have cut off his head. Is this really a 16-year-old boy?' Dekai was left feeling utterly baffled.
