The tip of Aurelius' sword sat less than one centimeter away from Izroth's neck.
Just now, Aurelius' motion in drawing his sword was so fast and effortless that if there were any onlookers, it would have seemed as if the sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
Those around had not yet noticed Aurelius had drawn his sword. Otherwise, the other gate guards would have reacted immediately and surrounded those present.
Izroth, however, remained unmoved by Aurelius' actions as he maintained a steady expression.
"That may be the case for others, but I hold no such sentiments," Izroth replied calmly.
