Raising the Stakes (Part 5)

Step.

Nirosh lunged forward, grabbing Adam by the collar. He was ready to explode with rage, his dream was ruined because Adam agreed to help Osana.

"Right, nothing can be changed now, you've already used The Rule of Power, but... I promise you, when it's over, your life will be hell!"

Crackle.

Zarot squeezed Nirosh's wrist and tossed his son aside.

"F-Father?" Nirosh muttered in confusion. He thought Zarot would back him up, or at least not interfere, but he certainly didn't expect Zarot to protect Adam.

Zarot waved his hand.

"It is already too late. Your fate, and Osana's, will be decided on The Rule of Power."

Zarot said menacingly, before, turning to Adam.

"Adam Vinter, leave, you have no reason to be here now. Next time I will see you on the battlefield. Me as a spectator and you as one of the two fighters."
