Axel looked at the prince with suspicion, "Your Highness? Why are you here?"
This bastard prince just teleported into this place out of nowhere. Wearing the usual smile, and the very moment Heinz exited. Axel recalled the servant's words: Lucien had only allowed Axel to enter this place.
Lucien sighed, "Don't you think you're overthinking things a bit?"
"What do you mean?" asked Axel skeptically.
"I can almost hear your brains turning. You're not that good at hiding your expressions as much as you'd like to think, Axel," said Lucien.
Axel did not respond, simply keeping his gaze on the snake-like prince's expressionless face.
Lucien laughed, "You're too tense, Axel. It's nothing much really. I was just intrigued by how easily you handled Heinz. Of course, in a full-on death battle, things would be much different. Even so, I must say your battle awareness is amazingly sharp."
"So, let's have a small fight ourselves…shall we?" proposed Lucien.
