Contrary to Pedro's expectation, Arvedar flinched out of fear and was about to cast his gravitation skill. However, Pedro seemed like he had thought two steps ahead as his pen-knife shot towards Arvedar's neck, only stopping when its tip pierced through his skin.
As blood drips from Arvedar's neck, Pedro said coldly, "I am approaching you out of goodwill. But if you try to harm me, I won't have the second thought to kill you all. After all, I can easily do it without moving a muscle."
The pen-knife pulled away slowly from Arvedar's neck. Then, it rotated around Pedro and made an after image like the ring of the planet Saturn.
"P-please spare us, sire! We are just humble adventurers trying to escape to the Kingdom by the sea!" Arvedar pleaded as sweats started to drip from his forehead.
"Kingdom by the sea?" Pedro asked, astonished. Then, he frowned and asked, "Do you mean the Naga Kingdom?"
"Ye-Yes!" Arvedar and the two men answered, seemingly relieved.
