An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1691

At that moment, Alaric felt a mix of shock, confusion, and sheer panic. He couldn’t figure out how Seth mastered astral projection, but one thing was clear-it was a bad omen!

This technique bypassed physical defenses, energy barriers, and all forms of protection and struck directly at the soul. It was a force that defied resistance and left no room for defense.

Apart from Arion, no one else in the world could withstand such a formidable assault.

As Seth’s spirit projected, blood started oozing from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. His skin even cracked, showing how much this technique took a toll on him.

For a person to employ such an extreme measure before attaining the realm of terrestrial immortality would inevitably result in irreversible damage. This explained why Seth had only resorted to this desperate move at the eleventh hour.

“Alaric! Your unilateral decisions, causing harm to the innocent-today, I’ll be the one to guide you to the afterlife!”

Seth’s projected astral floated toward Alaric. As it advanced, the turbulent waves of energy dissipated.

The Dragon Sparrow Sword and the Inferno Fury Spear stopped shaking, just hanging there in the air. Everything around them-the dust, the fallen leaves, even the breeze-froze.

It felt like time had stopped.

“No … Stop!” Alaric screamed inwardly. He struggled to break free but found himself completely paralyzed. His limbs, eyes, ears, mouth, and nose- everything was beyond his control.
