Afterwards, Fenix let go of the middle-aged man and approached the young man, who had been retreating further, using his hands and feet on the ground as he was terrified when he saw that his guardian was suppressed so easily by Fenix.
Fenix then approached the young man slowly with a wicked smile and looked at the young man as if he was going to kill him using his cold glare.
Fenix was pissed off because he was being disturbed while in the middle of refining the medicinal liquids Cain had ordered him to do so.
Even if the materials were nothing in Fenix's eyes, as an alchemist, Fenix naturally had some respect to utilize every material and not waste them as best as he could.
But with this accident, his refining process immediately failed, and the materials had just become a waste.
When Fenix arrived in front of the young man, he smiled and reminded him, "In the future, don't be an arrogant stupid motherfucker who's always looking at everyone as if they were beneath you."
Fenix then grabbed his face and smashed it on the floor less hard than the middle-aged man since he was weaker, and Fenix couldn't kill anyone as Cain ordered him to do so.
Boom!
Subsequently, Fenix let go of the young man and walked towards Cain.
When the middle-aged man saw Fenix ignoring them, he immediately went towards the young man and fed him a pill. "Young master, are you okay?"
"W-who are you?" The young man asked, as he was still in a shocked state and saw that the one who appeared in front of him had a big hand-burned mark across his face.
"Let's get out of here first, young master." The middle-aged man said before he immediately helped the young man to get up and walked towards the stairs with a quick step.
After their figures couldn't be seen anymore from the sixth floor for a few seconds, everyone heard the young man's scream.
"Ahhh… My Face!"
Everyone shuddered when they heard it before shifting their attention towards Fenix, who was walking leisurely towards the young man who slapped the arrogant young man just now.
However, they quickly continued their own things when Fenix tilted his head and swept his gaze towards everyone.
The boy was stunned when he watched everything with his own eyes.
Instead of feeling scared or something, the boy was rather impressed by the strength Fenix displayed.
Because he thought that if he was as strong as Fenix, he wouldn't need to fear everyone and would be able to protect his little sister more confidently since strength was what mattered the most in this cruel world.
"My lord, can you please warn me before summoning me next time?" Fenix asked as he scratched the back of his head and smiled.
"Okay, from now on, I'll remind you first." Cain nodded before waving his hand and putting Fenix back in the beast space.
Cain then removed the barrier and patted the little girl's head. "Little girl, you can open your eyes and ears now."
The little girl opened her eyes and removed her hands from his ears before looking around and finding out that they were already sitting at a table by the window.
"Huh? Are you okay, mast–I, I mean Big Brother Cain?" The little girl stuttered a little bit, as she was shy, and this was the first time that she acted casually with another person other than her brother. Read exclusive content at empire
"Of course." Cain said it proudly as he hit his chest lightly with his fist.
The little girl felt relieved when she heard it, as she was afraid that Cain would abandon both her and her brother because they could only bring troubles to him rather than being of any help.
"Don't worry. None of this was your fault. That ugly guy was just jealous I had a cute little girl with me." Cain reassured her as he pinched her cheek with a smile.
"Hehehe, thank you, Big Brother Cain." The little girl giggled and hugged Cain tightly as she really felt grateful to him.
Cain hugged the little girl in response and stroked her back softly.
"By the way," Cain said, settling her beside him, "we haven't been properly introduced. What are your names?"
"My name is Ayla." Ayla introduced herself excitedly before she pointed at the boy. "And this is my big brother, Elion."
"Hello, Big Brother Cain." Elion greeted Cain with an expression that was full of admiration.
Cain only nodded in response before glancing at the little girl and smiling. "My name is Cain Frostbane, but you can just call me Big Brother Cain from now on."
"Okay, Big Brother Cain." Ayla nodded cutely.
Cain smiled and ruffled her hair before flagging down a waiter as he wanted them to eat to their heart's content.
A beautiful woman in her early 20s immediately walked towards Cain with a little bit of a fearful expression as she watched the previous scene with her own eyes.
However, before she arrived, someone passed her and arrived in front of Cain in an instant.
"Hello, sir. I'm the manager of this place. I'm sorry for the previous inconvenience." A thin man in his late 30s dressed in a black suit with a long mustache bowed at Cain.
"Why are you here? I didn't call for you. Send the waitress back—I don't need you as my server." Cain waved his hand and said in a displeased tone, as he was dissatisfied that his beautiful waiter was changed into a man.
"I'm sorry for disturbing you." The manager bowed again and cursed in his heart.
'Wtf is wrong with this young man? How can he not follow the usual template reaction?'
The manager then tilted his head and gave the beautiful waitress a look as if she would be in trouble if she made Cain unsatisfied.
Because he noticed that the strong man was just this young man's subordinate and it would be a terrible idea to offend this kind of person.
