But if we’re heading into unknown territory, wouldn’t it be smarter to go together? Even for just a little while.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eira looked down at the rocky path silently. Her icy white hair fluttered with the wind, and her pale fingers curled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ulgar instantly snorted at his words. His huge shoulders rose, then dropped as he stomped toward Lucas like a bear about to charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you deaf or just stupid?” Ulgar growled. “I don’t take orders from some polished golden boy with a stick up his ass.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he uttered those words, his fist shot towards Lucas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas caught the incoming fist with his blade’s hilt, sliding one boot back across the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re attacking me now?” Lucas frowned, voice lowering. “Is this really how you want to handle this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You talk like you’re some saint,” Ulgar spat, eyes glowing red. “But I can smell the arrogance from here.
