"That was quite the display out there," Enigma said, walking beside Adams and the rest of the women, including Inara and Akira. "If I may ask, what was his offense?"
Inara nodded in agreement, her curiosity piqued. She, too, wanted to know what Mael had done to provoke such wrath and receive such a severe punishment.
Akira, on the other hand, seemed absorbed in her own world. She conjured a mirror, her reflection captivating her attention. She had always found her transformed appearance strange and mesmerizing, and as usual, she murmured to herself, "I can never get used to this."
Adams sighed before looking back at Enigma. "Mael harbored evil intentions towards Elamenor. After witnessing Elamenor's display of incredible strength, Mael dared to contemplate kidnapping him. His plan was to experiment on Elamenor to uncover the secrets behind his power—how someone without any cultivation could possess such formidable strength, rivaling that of seasoned cultivators."
