Loralie suddenly raised her head and let out a hiss. Her fins suddenly tightened. With several cracks, the chain around her arms was broken. She landed on the ground, jumped up violently, and pounced on Cassidy.
Cassidy quickly retreated. Just as Loralie pounced on her, a figure flashed in the dark. An old man suddenly appeared. He pointed his right hand forward, and with a swoosh, a sword radiance suddenly formed.
With a dull sound, a bloody hole appeared in Loralie's chest. She fell backwards and the light in her eyes quickly dissipated.
"There was no need," Cassidy sighed. Cupping her hands, she said, "Thank you, Mr. Chasten."
"This way please. Young Master Hsueh is asking for you." The old man turned around and walked out with his hands clasped behind his back.
After hesitating for a while, Cassidy followed him and left.
