The man hesitated, seemingly intimidated by that piercing gaze, and took a step back. Then, after exchanging glances with his companions, he quickly changed his tone.

“Ahem, well… We’re leaving. I think there’s been some misunderstanding. We were planning to head down too.”

His voice had lost its previous arrogance, now laced with meekness. Bowing slightly, he mumbled under his breath before hastily leading his group away.

However, Karon was still glaring at their retreating figures.

“Lady Salvia, if you wish, I can take care of them right now….”

“No, there’s no need.”

I wasn’t particularly furious with them. I was more surprised to find that this world had its own brand of annoying troublemakers, just like back on Earth. It made me contemplate the ‘Law of Conservation of Idiots.’

If I had truly been angry, my personality wouldn’t have allowed me to just let it slide—I would have already demonstrated the power of ‘violence and fear’ by now.

“I really mean it,” I emphasized again.

Only then did Karon’s expression soften.

“Yes! In that case, let’s hurry down too!”@@novelbin@@

He beamed brightly, as if the previous moment of tension had never existed. Seeing that cheerful face, I decided against telling him that his personality seemed to have changed a bit.
