[Listen, all of Oz's emotions are Big. He could be so much more disgusted than he was at the spider.
In any case, yes, of course, he finds this treatment of the Great Sphinx to be beneath him. On the other hand, there isn't much to be done when the creature itself is playing a part in it. Arthur's removed the pressing issue, which frees Oz to scoop the cat up lest it ingratiate itself further with this Foreign King. The animal lets out a startled noise, but then seems to decide that Pharaoh's Arms are just as good of a place to be.]
... As you say. Even if it is a grave insult that Abu El-Hol has been reduced to this size, it is not the sort of beast to be defeated by such a thing. [He shifts Awlad to the crook of one arm, so that he can point at Arthur. This would be more dramatic if the other king wasn't crouching on the ground.]
But make no mistake! Should you challenge me again with that holy sword of yours, I will oppose it with all the divinity I still hold in my person!
