Chapter 793 – Impulse [Part 3]
Lux Shadow Stepped.
Vanished.
Reappeared behind Arctyros again.
Threads deepened.
[Motor Override Potential: 41%.]
Arctyros spun aggressively, fury creeping into his movements now.
Pride did not like loss of control.
His spear came down in a crushing vertical strike.
Lux lifted one hand.
The threads pulsed.
Arctyros's grip faltered for half a second.
The spear's angle shifted.
Instead of cleaving Lux in half, it embedded into the stone at an awkward diagonal.
Lux stepped forward.
Placed his hand lightly on Arctyros's shoulder. "Relax."
Threads tightened.
Harder.
Arctyros's arm jerked against his will.
His posture straightened unnaturally.
The spear slid from his grip.
The audience gasped audibly now.
[Velvet Marionette Dominion: Active.]
[Control Strength: 63%.]
Arctyros's body moved.
But not by his choice.
His hand lifted.
Waved.
Like he was greeting someone.
Lux tilted his head slightly. "Good afternoon," he said casually.
