With a sly smile that was slowly creeping to the sides of her face, curving with satisfaction as she saw Midas completely silent and wary after showing that stunned expression, she could not help but continue chuckling.
"Oh my god… you should have seen yourself, Midas. Bearer of an Authority, Clan Leader… For someone so smart, you looked so stupid. You know I saw that and I couldn't help but think, finally, the great Midas, silent at last."
