??? was sitting in a chair, hands folded together. He had a smirk on his face and looked quite satisfied. "What's the situation?" ??? asked.
"Complicated," Lucius answered.
"I see. It's good enough," ??? said, his crimson eyes glowing in the dark room. "I suppose you should make things...less complicated."
Lucius slightly narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"
"You know the plan. You know what to do," ??? said with a slight smirk.
Lucius slightly bowed and said, "It shall be done. However, won't this plan affect Kael falcon, your subordinate?"
"It will affect him," ??? said, "that is the exact reason why I'm doing this. He'll grow with this plan. He'll get stronger."

Meanwhile, Ronx and Kael rushed at the barber. Kael launched a few fireballs while Ronx sent a few flying slashes towards the barber. However, the barbers simply deflected all of the attacks with his comb. "Come on, you have to do better than that, Ronx falcon."
Ronx sharpened his eyes and created massive amounts of blood and hardened them, shaping them in such a way that they became blood soldiers that could move on their own.
These all charged at the barber with their blood swords and spears, however, they all got slashed in the very next second. Even Ronx didn't see when the slash happened or when it even came, all he knew was that his soldiers got absolutely destroyed. "Ronx falcon, I didn't think of you as the type to hide behind your little summons," he said, calmly brushing his stand of hair with the comb.
Ronx's eyebrow slightly twitched. "Fine, I'm going all out," he said, appearing in front of the barber and launching thousands and thousands of different attacks in seconds. He continuously switched between weapons like Whips or swords, creating many different attacks that were so fast that it would be impossible for any normal person to dodge.
In fact, the attacks didn't stop there as Kael also attacked the barber by launching several fireballs and even his fire dragon. All of this made it incredibly hard for the barber to dodge, causing him to get decently damaged. Though, it wasn't nearly enough to defeat him. "Not bad, I'm starting to like the father and son duo," he said, unusually calm.
"But that's enough," the barber said, getting serious all of a sudden.
As soon as he did, he disappeared and before Ronx or Kael could realize it, Ronx felt a sharp pain, extremely sharp pain coming from his stomach. And as he looked down, he noticed a giant blade coming out the other side that was from the barber's giant scissors. "What..." Ronx said, vomiting blood in the very next second.
"I was getting bored," the barber said with a devilish smile, his voice dropping low to a whisper, "so I ended this quicker than I would have liked...you should be grateful that I didn't stab you in the heart. Now you have a decent amount of time left before you die from blood loss."
The barber hoped for despair, however, Ronx simply let out a small laugh. "Blood loss? Out of all of the people, you think I am the one going to die from blood loss? You might not know me so I'll let you in on something, you fucking barber."
"When I was just a teenager, I fought someone who removed my heart from my own fucking body. And guess what? I was completely fine because my ability did the job of the heart for me. That's how strong I was and am," Ronx continued, kicking the barber away from him, getting out of the giant scissor that had pierced his body.
"But you think that I'll die from blood loss," Ronx said with a slight smirk. "How very funny."
"I can't keep up with them...!" Kael thought, who was frozen. "And this is the first time I have seen my father act like this..."
Ronx sighed and took out his ultimate weapon, the gun that was given to him as a reward after he defeated Jackson Kalen, Chronobreaker. "Guess what? You damn barber...I wasn't even serious up to this point."
"The gun that I'm holding ignores time itself and can destroy multiple buildings at once," Ronx said. "You can't dodge it."
Kael's eyes widened as soon as he saw the weapon. "Is that...the gun that he used on me?!"
The barber smirked, his smile wider than ever. He opened his arms wide and said, "Bring it on."
