An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1817

Just when Ignatius got ready to speak, he pointed to a direction while narrowing his eyes and shouted in surprise, “Look! What is that?”

The others looked in the direction he was pointing. They saw a dark object in the sky heading straight down, and it crashed in the middle of their troops.

The explosion was deafening, and everything quaked as dust rose. There was a gigantic wave of energy spreading outward from the point of explosion like tsunami waves.

The energy wave left a trail of destruction and painful moans wherever it passed. This attack killed and wounded at least a few hundred soldiers.

“The fuck! What the hell was that?” Draven squinted his eyes. He couldn’t see what attacked them due to the thick clouds of dust.

“Could it be a meteorite?” Atticus sounded a little confused.

“A shooting star? How could there be such a coincidence?” Mortimer refused to believe it.

“I can see it clearly now! It’s a person!” Ignatius had good vision and pointed at where the object fell. Then, he shouted, “He’s charging toward us!”

As soon as he said that, a dark shadow emerged from the clouds of dust and was running toward the Four Sovereigns.

The dark shadow held a black sword and was moving very fast. He was unstoppable and was undeterred by the obstacles on the way.

The fully armored soldiers were nothing to him as he defeated them easily. There were suddenly a lot of casualties.

“An assassin! Quick! Stop him!” Ignatius came to his senses quickly and gathered the royal guards as he charged toward the shadow.

“Hmm! He’s only one, and we have thousands of soldiers to protect us! He might be able to fly, but he’ll never get to us with the number of soldiers around us!” Draven said haughtily with a cold look.
