Since he was a child that he was taught to be a ruthless and cold-hearted man, Liu Myung only knew that this world was harsh and filled with hardships, a world where the strong dominated the weak, in such an unforgiving world, he was taught to be unforgiving as well. Brought from an orphanage at the age of 4 to join the sect that served the Frost Tear Kingdom, he was taught to be a cold warrior that would protect the nobles and defeat any enemy. He grew slightly more deviant as he fought against many people, realizing his own strength, and abusing it to receive more praises from his master, torturing and overpowering his fellow sect disciples for mere praises.
Eventually, he saw such things as good behaviors, and grew up with that in mind, he realized this world was about who could abuse their own power better, even the nobles were no different, they had both strength and money and dominated everything, the royal family of the Frost Tear Kingdom was like this as well, using money they employed the sect and raised strong warriors to protect him. It was a fact of this world, and he embraced it happily instead of cowering in fear in a corner of his room.
He was taught to be ruthless and unforgiving, because this was the best way to live in this world, even as he saw many people living leisurely, or the adventurers who sometimes could be as strong as sect disciples living on their own and unchained, he despised such people, and wished everyone could understand such discipline and philosophy. Over time he was taught many things by his masters from the sect, the topic about the lizardmen had reached them over time, as he was told that lizardmen were not people, but monsters that had to be slain at sight.
But this.. wasn't without proper reason behind it.
"Long ago the lizardmen attacked a village named Damascus Village, where there were many blacksmiths, they massacred the people there because they infiltered at night, and because there were no strong people there to defend the village... It was wiped in just a night."
His master spoke to him about what had happened many years ago, when monstrous lizardman with giant claws and jaws massacred a village next to the Orange Village, people was massacred and devoured... Devoured. This caused Liu Myung to begin to see lizardmen as beasts. They didn't just killed them but most of the people there, all those innocent citizens were all eaten, most of the survivors reported that these savages devoured children alive.. And this was one of the major reasons that lizardmen were called "child eaters".
Of course, what the sect didn't knew back then was that these lizardmen belonged to the extinct tribe of cannibals, highly aggressive carnivorous lizardmen that devoured the other tribes, one of their groups had ended escaping from the massacre going on inside the jungles where their tribe was exterminated, and they ended massacring this village to find enough food to sustain themselves, after that, they ended going back to the jungle and vanishing, until they were caught by Larzak and his men and slain for good.
However, because of this action, the lizardmen were badly seen by most people, but over time people's hearts change, their minds change as well, and new generations, unaware of such things emerge, who lack the prejudice of their ancestors because they didn't experienced the same things as they, nor they saw what they saw.
However, Liu Myung continued with his mindset even as he grew into a young adult, and frustrated over the lizardmen trying to become citizens, he plotted the assassination of the chief that could speak common tongue, stopping negotiations and once more reinforcing the idea they were all wild and unintelligent monsters as people could not understand them anymore when their only common tongue speaker was slain.
The language barrier was a very big thing they couldn't easily surpass, and the lizardmen were discriminated once more and thrown into the wild jungles to fend by themselves, only a few steps from becoming people as well.
Liu Myung felt disgusted now that they had once more attempted to become their friends, and had used helping them against their savage versions as an excuse to have a reason to ally them, which he found as complete bullshit... Despite having been saved by the lizardmen a couple of times through the entire battle. He found completely disgusting what Hector was doing, and he wasn't going to let him go around leisurely saying that it was okay for lizardmen to be friends with the people.. He found this disgusting, unforgivable, and that needed punishment.
"Hector, I won't let you talk back to my fellow sect disciples so rudely, challenge you to a duel, do you accept or are you too cowardly?" Asked Liu Myung.
"A duel?" Asked Hector.
"If I win you're going to leave that abomination of a monster and stop your wicked sexual deviation... If I lose, I'll let you be and I won't bother you anymore... nor the lizardmen." Said Liu Myung.
Of course, this was obviously a trap, this man was incredibly strong, challenging Hector like this most likely meant he would win anyways, there was no other way around it. Hector wasn't strong enough, even at Rank 2, to defeat him...
"..Can I use armor or weapons?" Asked Hector.
"Heh, fell free, you're a soldier after all, that's what you're better at, isn't it?" Laughed Liu Myung, mocking him for requiring armor and weapons unlike him, a man whose magic could overpower any sort of armor defenses or weapon's strength.
"Then I accept.” Said Hector, walking forward while holding into the Light Spear.
"W-Wait, Hector!" Said Miminga. "You're still wounded, you can't..!" Miminga tried to stop him, but Hector held her hand and smiled back at her.
"Miminga, I won't let anybody insult you." Said Hector, with a fiery expression on his eyes.
