The surrounding crowd instantly descended into chaos after witnessing the Overseer being completely erased. Several priest-like figures in white robes collapsed to the ground, their faces deathly pale as they trembled and pointed at Marquis Voban:
"Y-You actually dared to kill the Overseer."
"He's mad! He must be mad!"
"We'll die! Everyone will die!"
One elderly priest screamed hysterically:
"Do you know what you've done?! The Overseer has fallen, and Heaven's Punishment will surely descend! This world will be destroyed because of you!"
Marquis Voban slowly turned his head, a trace of impatience flashing through his clouded wolf eyes.

His voice was low and cold, as though it came from the depths of Hell.

With a backhand chop, another person's head flew high into the air, blood erupting like a fountain.
In an instant, everyone who had witnessed the Overseer's death became mangled corpses.
Marquis Voban stood
