章節 253: Shepard's Counter-Attack

With her decision, Cordelia's intentions were obvious. She aimed to keep his talentled disciples for herself by forbidding his intervention.

"You'll regret today's decision dearly, arrogant brat," Shepard spat, his veins throbbing in anger.

Most rulers' behavior infuriated him. That's why he stayed away from politics. Yet, if lowly adepts thought they could play with his nerve safely thanks to the archmages' rules, he would show them how wrong they were.

"Do your worst, puppet," snorted Cordelia, unafraid of his threats. The arcanist couldn't do anything alone, and even searching for his disciples wasn't enough of a reason for him to kill her soldiers.

Without a word, Shepard spat on the ground to show how disgusting he found her before returning to his college. Then, he set the coordinates of the empire he wanted to visit the least on the planet through gritted teeth.
