Unexpected Revelation
Sunny did not have much of a reaction to that statement. Hearing a terrifying existence like Beastmaster contemplating the murder of one of his close ones… was certainly a chilling experience. However, the person in question was Neph. So, the feeling was not novel.
Someone was always trying to kill her.
'I'd like to see you try.'

Beastmaster seemed slightly surprised. The arch of her eyebrow was so exquisite that even Sunny's shadow was momentarily mesmerized. Luckily, he had sent the gloomy shadow to spy on her — that guy was not easily phased. The shadow quickly regained its composure and continued to listen.
"Too many resources? But she is just a Master."
