No More Holding Back!

Chapter 272

Sera's expression slowly shifted, the playful amusement in her gaze fading into cold detachment.

A mask.

A carefully worn one, but beneath it—

Rage burned.

Right at this moment, despite her mocking words, despite the smirk curling at her lips, the truth was that she was seething.

The earlier incident was still fresh in her memory—that humiliating moment when she had been tricked, led by the nose, caught off guard by a mere boy.

And he had escaped.

A human child had humiliated her, an inquisitor.

Unacceptable.

It was a massive dent to her honor, her pride, her very existence.

She clenched her jaw.

Imagine surrounding a weak chick with a pack of wolves—only for that small chick to outwit the entire pack, making fools of them, leading them in circles as if they were nothing but obedient dogs.

Nothing could be more shameful.

And yet—

It had happened.
