Lucien nearly bit his tongue in anger as he unleashed a torrent of curses, immediately rushing toward the kneeling figure before it was too late—before Zephyr lost all control.
Because if he truly did—it wouldn't just be City M—the entire Eastern Continent would be gone, erased from existence. And Lucien wasn't joking because Zephyr was the first and only SSS-rank Esper alive.

Not even the protagonist would be able to stop him.
Even if this side character was blind, his power going out of control would bring a great disaster Lucien could not afford!
Of course, the memory of being intensely kissed until he blacked out—was still fresh in Lucien's mind, but with the dire situation before him, he couldn't even grab the culprit by the collar and demand an explanation, prompting another angry curse to slip out.
