Kyle was a man from a high lineage within Ivanov's city; his life had been smooth sailing ever since he was born and had been identified as crucial family talent, eventually leading to his successful recruitment and rise as a Peak Class Three Squad Captain.
For this very same reason, few would dare to offend him, even more so after learning of his most entertaining hobbies to capture beautiful women, a habit trained only after joining the infamous Rose Picker Battalion.
Marius felt the tension in the air and saw the looks of disgust on some of the women's faces when they stared at Kyle's back. He had already inferred the necessary information needed for the man that arrogantly sat before him and his family. Still, as if he didn't care, he merely smirked and awaited him to speak.
Kyle took note of Marius's indifference, but he didn't take any offense to it as he was a proud man. One of his most fun hobbies was to break down a foe mentally before finishing him by letting him live a life no worse than a living hell. He would then take his wife and children and transform their lives into utter chaos.
When he thought of the following scenes, even more so as he could see the Ria's fine temperament at Marius's side, he couldn't help but feel a tinge of excitement in his heart. Not daring to waste another moment, he calmed himself and began to explain the trouble that had befallen Marius.
"While I would like to tell you that everything will be alright, I'm sorry to say that your son has made the biggest mistake of his entire life, pal. Do you see this symbol on my armor, the pattern of the rose? It signifies the connection to a battle of the dynasty's army. While my subordinate might have only been a Class One Squad Captain, he was directly under my charge as I myself am a Class Three Squad Captain. The army has many rules, but the most important ones are never to have anyone offend its dignity, by showing force to those of battalion, even if it were an ordinary soldier, you have done nothing but brought a disaster upon yourself."
Marius made a curious look as he spoke in a calm tone, "Oh, if it's like that, then it would seem my son has brought quite the danger upon us, but it's odd; why are you telling me this? Shouldn't your job as an army elite be to enforce punishment on us infringers?"
The audience shook their heads at Marius's words, wondering if he lost his mind; he should have known what Kyle was trying to lead the conversation towards.
'This handsome mister, what's he relying on?' Liola thought as she stared at Marius intently, noticing his composure, even the middle-aged man from the other table had a pensive look.
Kyle didn't seem to mind Marius's directness; he smirked and spoke in reply, "You're quite direct, that's good; I also like wrapping things up quickly. Of course, you are correct in your statement as that's how it should have been, but I'm feeling a tad bit generous today, rather than taking you to an execution platform. I want to offer you and your family a way out. The price will be simple, so long as your wife becomes my partner and your and son chop of a single limb, I will be generous enough to no longer press any charges against you in the military name. However, if you refuse to do so, then I'll have to ask you to contact your backer right now, for they are the only way you'll be able to escape with some charges."
