Quito pliantly relinquished his grip on Lyanna while his eyes remained transfixed upon her.
“Do you fancy me?” Lyanna asked as she cast a furtive look in Quito's way.
“Yes...” The mesmerized Quito nodded his head dully.
“If you do, then listen up. Go and kill the one who had captured my friend,” said Lyanna as she pointed at Catur.
“Of course!” With that goofy expression seemingly melded onto his face, Quito turned and made his way toward Catur.
“Quito? Hey, Quito.” Sensing something amiss, Catur called out twice at Quito when the latter came toward him, but the fifth guardian continued to advance as though oblivious to it.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Quito threw a punch at Catur. The immensity of the power he put behind it raised a billowing squall that exploded through the air.
Still clutching onto Lizbeth, Catur dodged out of the way of Quito's attack.
“Have you lost your freaking mind, Quito?” Catur cussed aloud.
Quito, however, did not stay his hand and continued to slug away without letup.
Left without a choice, Catur could only cast Lizbeth aside in order to guard himself against Quito's relentless assault.
“Are you all right, Lizbeth?”
Lyanna went up quickly to help Lizbeth to her feet.
“I'm okay,” replied Lizbeth as she shook her head.
Altan, who was engaged in battle with Josephine, roared in fury in reaction to Catur and Quito getting into it with each other. “Fighting over women? Have you two bloody lost your minds?”
He was under the impression that the pair had come to blows over a dispute over their spoils.
“I have no idea what's gotten into him, Altan. I don't understand why he's attacking me either!” yelled Catur as he desperately sought to fend off Quito.
