The Sooner You Go The Better!

"Uhh…"

Invidia groaned before opening her eyes. 

William's deadly punch scared her witless and, before she knew it, she had lost consciousness.

Invidia's first thought was to back away, but then she found herself unable to move. The Half-Elf was firmly holding onto her waist, preventing her from moving, which made her feel anxious.

"Ha… hahaha. I was just joking earlier," Invidia said as she tried to pry William's hand from her waist. "You know, Superbia and I were just testing you if you are worthy to become our leader. I wasn't really trying to kill you or anything."

"Right," William replied. "Anything else?"
