While the fight between Melinda and Cornelia went on, Hal had been engaged in a battle with Atricia Evgeny who was the leader of the Sensual Guild.
It did not take long and more than the first serious second-hand force for Hal to know exactly what her rod was capable of and he began to avoid getting hit by it.
After the moment he had been smacked away by the force before he could really process the fact that Atricia was a member of Elsa's clan, Hal decided to table all thoughts and all processing of information and strictly focus on delivering an ass-kicking.
Atricia was confident and she kinda had a right to be confident just by her strength and her wielding of the large rod but she was only about to learn that, as a lady who was a realm above Hal's cultivation, she was in the worst possible matchup.
