'He's level three, not bad for a kid. Pretty impressive,' Hendrix thought as he casually threw the grown-up to the side and rushed towards Nox with a blinding speed that frightened the latter to the core of his bones.
All he could see was just a blur!
"Oh no, not little Nox, someone protect him!" The onlookers couldn't stand it anymore when they saw their beloved Nox rushing to fight the big bully because he had disrespected the citizens of the Barony, and they were touched in their hearts.
His grandfather, his father, and he were cherished by the town a lot!
They didn't want such a good heart and promising future to be brutally crippled, so they threw themselves in the way hoping to stop the white-haired boy. Even the women didn't slack.
However, they were all blasted away with just one attack from Hendrix. Bodies flew in the marketplace, stalls and carts were destroyed, and foodstuffs spilled everywhere.
At the same time, Hendrix had already grabbed Nox by the head. Because he was older than the latter, he was much taller and bigger. His hand simply covered all of Nox's face.
An audible bang resounded as he directly smashed Nox's face to the cobblestone ground. The impact was fierce, and a slight crater appeared on the cobblestone with Nox's bloody face buried deep.

'That hit took three-quarter of my HP,' Nox thought as he resisted the urge not to cry due to the blinding pain that shot up from his face. 'I thought I got stronger, so why... why... one hit... it was just one hit and I can't even move. I hate this feeling.'
'I hate this feeling!'
The onlookers who saw this scene were heartbroken at the fact they couldn't help the young lord. They couldn't even move a muscle due to the attack from earlier. How strong was this boy? A kid possessing such power was simply unheard of.
Bang!
Under their helpless gaze, Hendrix was about to smash Nox's face into the cobblestone ground once more. However, he soon felt a deadly aura from beside him.
Looking, he found a white cat staring at him in anger as if he had killed someone very close to him.
Without hesitation, Fluffington leaped up, his claws poised for a strike. How dare this boy beat up Nox! Seeing Nox like thie hurt him. He didn't want to see the boy like that. To do that, he needed to get rid of the boy!
"Fluffi—"
Nox weakly watched as Hendrix unleashed a barrage of punches specifically targeting all of the cat's weak spots. The attacks were fast and were done in mid-air in a span of a few seconds. The cat collapsed and weakly fell to the ground, blood coming out of it's mouth.
'Why, why does this scene feel so similar? Yes, it happened back in the temple, I was helpless just like this.'
Inside the beast taming space, Thirteen was desperately trying to come out, but Nox kept him in check. Thirteen was only a cub. If Fluffington could be defeated like this, the panda woundnt make any difference and only get itself hurt.
At that moment, Hendrix felt deadly killing intent from the side again. This time he looked and saw a girl very identical to the boy in his grasp.
"How dare you!" Nyx was practically seething with rage, seeing Nox's disfigured face. A teardrop fell from her eyes... She'd only learned of what was happening from Matt and had hurried over. They wanted to report it, but her grandfather and all the important people in the town were in a very important meeting.
Closing the distance, Nyx kicked Hendrix in the stomach, sending him skidding back ever so slightly.
"I'm the only one allowed to hit him! Nobody else. How dare you lay your filthy hands on my brother?"
'Interesting, classless yet she could land a hit on me.' Hendrix smiled as he stood up straight and started approaching slowly. His walk was calm and leisurely.
"Since you like your brother so much, why don't you die close to him!"
Nyx's eyeballs constricted. It had happened so fast, one moment he was approaching with a bit of distance, and the next she found her head perfectly wrapped in his hand, approaching the ground at a rapid pace.
Then…
BANG!
Her face was smashed to the ground beside Nox.
Nox eyes went bloodshot when he saw Nyx's bloody face that was very close to him. He felt a pang seeing his sister like that.
In front of him, her face was smashed to the ground once again.
"Don't lay your hands on her!!" Nox shouted. He could see Nyx struggling to catch her breath. He had to admit this boy was just too strong for them. "Don't hit her!"
Hendrix only smirked in response. "I'll pass on that offer—"
"Enough!"
Just when all hope was lost, the familiar bony sight of Nathan along with everyone walked into the crowd.
