There was no sound of explosion, for mana was ultimately just a form of energy.
No shockwave exploded all over the hall, for it was directed straight upwards. No blood splattered either, as the prince's head remained perfectly intact as if nothing had ever happened to it in the first place.
That is, for the three seconds before a small stream of blood started to trickle out of each of the holes in the man's nose. Then, his eyes grew bloodshot, before tears of blood started to ooze out of their corners. Finally, his body seemingly turned all weak, losing its cohesion with all of the man's joints failing.
"You…"
No one in the hall ended up learning what the prince considered Leo to be. Be it Leo himself or any of the nobles, they simply stared at the prince and waited for him to finish, only for a mouthful of blood to spill out of the man's mouth as he could no longer hold it closed.
Thump.
