""PLEASE ALL OF YOU STOP"" Ivy screamed at the three men, who were already baring their fangs towards each other.
She could only scream to gain their attention, if both sides fought, the casualties would be irreparable, and she would be affected by any part who lost or won, she wouldn't be happy.
The men looked at her, only Shadow had no idea who she was, he could only vividly remember her from the incident that occured in the golden turtle.
"Ivy how did you get over there, where you captured?" Valdmir spoke in rage, he totally forgot about his daughter earlier and was so focused on the fight, if they were to capture his daughter, when he was concentrated on the fight, there was nothing he could do.
Derrick looked a little confused, he already thought that the girl was captured by them, but he never knew they knew each other, if it was a trap before, he would have fallen in.
"Father enough, keep those things back, you are gonna die if you continue like this" Ivy regained her strength and walked into the middle of the fight between both parties and faced her dad, she wasn't confident on stopping Derrick and Shadow, without stopping her father first.
Valdmir looked at his daughter, that he had spoilt rotten, why was she acting this way was confusing for him, he knew his daughter very well and usually never acts out of place.
"But pumpkin, my money, I haven't gotten my money from them, it's a whooping 1000 gold coins, should I just forget about such a huge amount of money?" Valdmir said indignantly, the reason he was out here was because of the money to be exact, but it looks like he wouldn't get his money or new slaves, he never expected someone as strong as Shadow to be here, who wasn't only strong but skilled, his fighting techniques and style of sword was higher than his, he was only buying time to his doom, ever since the fight started.
"Is enough father, even thou you killed one of them after taking the pill and using the weapon, the remaining one would definitely kill you, so father please just let it be" Ivy went ahead and hugged her father in a bid to stop him, he softened and stroked her head and sighed, she is the only one he got after her mother died years ago, and him dying here wouldn't bode well for her.
"Alright I would do as you say, but I can't leave without getting anything in return, can I?" Valdmir was still trying to get something from this encounter, he felt like going home like this was a loss to him, and therefore he needed to go back with his head held high, even what he took back was inconsequential or wasn't important, he didn't care.
"""Father""" Ivy called out fuming, but she knew her father had made up his mind and there was nothing she could do anymore, so she changed her direction to Derrick and Shadow.
"Derrick please could you stop, if this fight goes on, it would definitely end badly for both sides, is there anything you can part with" Ivy said looking at Derrick with puppy eyes, this made Valdmir open his mouth agape with surprise, 'is this still my proud, snobbish daughter' he thought to himself, but he decided to ignore it and see the reaction of the duo.
'Why am I in this position, I am suppose to be sleeping in the castle and not facing this kind of mess, well I was about to pay 50 gold coins for Ella before, so there is no harm in dropping it now' Derrick thought to himself after studying the situation, but Shadow beat him to the punch and gave out a scroll.
"Woah is this a magic scroll? hahaha you would have given me this earlier" Valdmir took it with greedy eyes, he folded it and turned to leave, but he was stopped.
"Aren't you forgetting something, as we have given you something, we deserve something in return" Shadow said, not caring about the looks he was receiving.
