An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 2078

Marco stomped forcefully on the ground, causing multiple cracks to form. He then propelled himself forward like a released arrow, charging at Dustin with a vindictive glare.

In the first two battles, Marco refrained from making the first attack, allowing his opponents to showcase their skills.

However, Dustin's words ignited his fury, leading him to desire a swift and brutal end to the duel as a warning to all martial artists in Dragonmarsh.

Midway, Marco suddenly drew his sword and executed a horizontal slash.

The next thing they knew, Marco's Demon sword emanated a brilliant crimson glow. An eerie blood-red sword light whistled through the air, slashing toward Dustin at the speed of light.

Along its path, the very air seemed to distort, and the ground was left with a deep, scorched gash as if it had been seared by flames.

"What remarkable speed!" Quincy's eyes narrowed in astonishment.

While Marco's maneuver appeared ordinary, in reality, it was exceptionally swift and brutal, surpassing his previous attacks by more than tenfold.

In other words, Marco had been restraining his full strength from the start. It was only when he grew furious at Dustin's provocation that he chose to unleash his true strength.

This spelled trouble!

At that moment, Quincy wasn't the only one feeling anxious, the majority of the crowd was worried for Dustin.

Even though they looked down on him, he was ultimately a Dragonmarshian. Regardless of the circumstances, they hoped he wouldn't die at the hands of the brat.

"Puny skills." In the face of the blood-red sword light, Dustin stood firm. Raising the tree branch in his hand, he swung it gently from top to bottom.

A crescent-shaped, white sword light burst forth, meeting Marco's blood-red sword light head-on. Marco's sword light had burst forth horizontally, while Dustin's descended vertically.
