'This isn't a fight that we can win,' Noah thought as he stared at the lightning storm surrounding Great Elder Diana.
The Royals took a few steps back, but Noah promptly warned them with his cold gaze. They had to remain there and help him in case of need.
Elder Regina wanted to get close to her Matriarch, but Noah shot a cold glance at her too. Great Elder Diana wasn't in a state where she could recognize her.
Great Elder Diana didn't advance, but she kept her eyes on Noah. She seemed set on making him the target for her anger.
Noah didn't have to guess why he was in that situation. Great Elder Diana had become addicted to the raw laws, and seeing him eating them had triggered her anger.
'I can't escape either,' Noah accepted in his mind as he evaluated the situation.
