Scarlet was a prominent figure in the nation, establishing herself as a potential leader in the political

“Why are you silent now? Weren’t you showing off just now? If you’re brave enough, then fight me.

Let’s see your abilities,” Scarlet jeered, shifting everyone’s attention to Zachary.

“Step aside for Marquis of Riaz’s eldest son-Mr. Schmid!”

The three successive shouts were deafening, rattling the scene and instilling fear in everyone.
