Dominic did not seem to care at all if his attack might attract the monster roaming the wilderness , his posture relaxed, his eyes bright, and his carefree laughter returned in a slower rhythm, as if he was enjoying the way everyone's breathing had changed.
"Hahahaha," Dominic laughed, then looked directly at Gabriel with bloodshot excitement that did not match his calm tone. "Broken Heaven, stop standing there like a statue. You came to conquer a camp, right? Then come and take it properly. Or is your entire faction just good at hiding and killing people who cannot fight back."
His words were meant to stab morale more than flesh, because anyone watching could hear what he was trying to do. He was trying to drag Gabriel into anger. He was trying to force a mistake. And he was trying to make the soldiers think their leader would either charge foolishly or retreat and look weak.
