After the body was enhanced.
Ronald's sense of sll beca very sensitive.
So at that mont, he detected a sudden stench around him. As for its source, naturally, it was the noble lord who had been clamoring just a second ago.
Faced with the blade suddenly flung by Kaya, this guy reacted quickly enough, plopping down onto the ground, barely avoiding the attack.
However, the life-threatening spell appeared suddenly in front of him.
This guy was obviously scared to the point where even his pants beca damp.
If not for the fact he wore thick clothes, the situation here could have been worse.
"You... you lunatic!"
"You actually dare to attack a lord? Do you know what you're doing?"
Sitting on the ground, the noble demanded in a trembling voice.
At the sa ti, he recalled the ice blade and nervously glanced behind him.
"Hiss—"
Looking back.
The scene that t his eyes chilled his heart further.
Although he dodged the attack, the flying ice blade did not halt, and the soldiers behind him, re ordinary people, had no ability to dodge such an attack.
Thus, Kaya's ice blade.
Coincidentally struck the chest of a trusted soldier behind the noble.
As for the result...
The oasis lost a living person and gained an ice sculpture.
Kaya's spell wasn't re physical cutting but used the fast-flying ice blade to inject extre cold magic power into the enemy's body, freezing them directly into ice.
A living person beca like this in an instant.
Many ordinary people in the area began to fear Kaya's ability.
But at that mont, the elderly caster cald herself and with slow steps walked to the noble lying on the ground:
"You... you, I..."
The noble on the ground was speechless.
Whether to plead or threaten as before, he was unable to form words.
Faced with a life-threatening crisis, his reaction was genuine.
"..."
Just looking at his miserable state.
Kaya suppressed her anger once again and spoke in a deep, authoritative voice:
"Lord of Leersanya."
"I know your city-state's rules and understand your actual capabilities."
"On your own land, acting according to your rules is of course acceptable."
"But I ask you, do you really know who you've offended?"
"..."
The noble lying on the ground didn't respond imdiately.
It wasn't until he realized the aning in Kaya's question out of fear that he trembled as he responded:
"This, this, lady."
"I was just expanding territory according to city-state rules; what happened just now was fully traditional!"
"I..."
"Alright, we will handle this matter here." The noble's self defense did not end before soone else intervened.
The one who spoke was naturally Zeno.
Seeing the dramatic turn in events.
Zeno and Shiva, who had been passive and neutral, stepped forward and boldly positioned themselves between the lord and Kaya.
Two city-state inspectors.
At this mont, Zeno, as the representative, spoke:
"Sorry, madam, I must interrupt you both."
"While Lord Donster's attitude may have been aggressive, it was indeed within his rightful authority granted by Leersanya. As a formidable individual, you could indeed use force, but as inspectors of Leersanya's city-state, we cannot rely stand by in face of such provocation."
"..."
Faced with Zeno's comnt.
Kaya's gaze was sowhat grave.
During her active years, Leersanya's city-state conglorate had already ford a certain scale, so Kaya naturally understood what the identity of city-state inspectors truly ant.
These people were the emissaries of city-state rulers.
Besides helping coordinate information between city-states, they have the natural mission to preserve Leersanya.
In terms of strength—
Kaya was confident she could defeat all these people before her.
But as a forr scholarly leader, her thought process was notably strategic, considering the bigger picture.
Even if the earlier actions had offended Costate.
Considering there were only a few mbers in her team facing a city-state conglorate in the future...
Kaya pondered for a few seconds.
And chose to control her emotions.
"I know how you Leersanya people conduct yourselves, so today indeed..."
Kaya's stance was ready to calmly resolve the issue.
But precisely because of that.
Looking at the elderly caster's back, Ronald approached and gently patted the lady's shoulder:
"Madam Kaya, you don't need to do so."
Kaya turned her head, looking surprised at Ronald.
Ronald rely responded with a composed expression, soon shifting his focus to Zeno and Shiva before him.
"Gentlen, I don't care how Leersanya rules work."
"Just regarding what just happened here, I have a few simple questions for you both."
—Not with kind intentions.
Ronald's motive for stepping up at this ti was evident.
Though posing a simple inquiry, Zeno cautiously responded to his question.
The two city-state inspection group mbers were acutely aware that the man in front was a strong caster, with almost no chance of countering him.
Moreover, it was crucial.
That his companions might also possess considerable power.
If the opposition intended to act violently, the likelihood of returning alive might not be great.
Faced with such danger, Zeno's mood plumted to the depths.
Yet he maintained outward composure and responded:
"Mr. Ronald, please ask away."
"As long as it's sothing I can answer, I'll truthfully convey."
"Good!" Ronald at this mont completely dominated the dialogue, and he nodded lightly like a host before continuing, "In fact, before landing, I saw what happened below from the air."
"When Lord Donster gathered his soldiers and surrounded the expedition team, you seed inactive; now, with circumstances reversed, why have you suddenly interjected and interrupted our 'friendly' negotiation between us?"
As Ronald's gaze grew cold.
His tone with the final question was already pressing them:
"Do not tell —this is what Leersanya considers rightful conduct!"
