Now he had expected a reaction from Ruby, that much was clear. But not such a fiery and, quite honestly, hurtfully accurate one! The jackal merely floated a foot or two above the ground as he listened to the girl going off her britches as she yelled one accusation after the other, some of which stung a bit too close to home, making his eye twitch.
However, the talk of being ‘defeated’ seemed to touch a nerve, even if he had no idea what she was talking about. Him, ‘defeated’? The battle had just begun!
“What are you BABBLING ABOUT, you delusional brat?”
His voice reduced to a feral snarl, Infinite would land on his feet as he’d glare daggers at the girl.
“You’ve got some nerve, by the way... saying that your existence MEANS something. Your existence should never even be valid. You are nothing but a faux image of desire. A fictional figment of a pathetic man’s desire to have something he can never truly achieve.”
A flash of red, and Infinite was now aiming to quickly grab Ruby by her throat, lifting her up if the grab succeeded. And as he’d hold her, the Ruby on his chest glowed a brilliant blood-red, his eye lighting up as well as his grip almost felt... burning to the girl. As if searing through her skin.
“I am as real as can be. You? You’re nothing but a manifestation of the Ruby’s powers. That is to say, MY powers... the Ruby is what made you. With its powers... I can UN-DO YOU. So if I may advice you, brat... Don’t. TEST. ME. Are we... clear?”
