The power of Madam's voice

"Wha…?!" the golden man stumbled when he climbed high up the hill enough to come face to face with Madam. "It's you? But… Why? How?" 

Despite seeing the man for the very first time, my opinion of him instantly took a massive dive. 

'Is this how a leader of the army on the brink of a battle should act?'

I squinted my eyes and turned around, hooking my hands on the gun that I held on my back. And with this disrespectful, relaxed pose, I stared at the man as his eyes moved from Madam to Karlan… and then, to me. 

"You? Who are you?" the golden being squinted its eyes, only for them to expand under the exploding wrath. "HUMAN?!"

"Calm down," Madam spoke out and even reached out with her hand… But she underestimated her ex's outcry. The man shrouded in a golden aura simply stepped past her hand and then past Madam herself. 

"STAY!"
