An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 2080

"I didn't expect Marco to be the successor to Jump Force. Dalen, it looks like your friend is in danger!" Crystal's gaze hardened, and she grew particularly solemn.

Luca had a widely renowned reputation, even in Dragonmarsh. If Marco had direct knowledge of the skill, he was basically already in part a Sword Sage.

It was obvious that he had visited Dragonmarsh and called for a public duel to make a name for himself.

"No wonder he's so formidable. It turns out that he's a disciple of the strongest Sword Sage in Kimboku. It was reasonable that I lost." Miles straightened his chest, appearing proud.

If he had lost to an unknown person, it would have significantly impacted the Sword Union's reputation. However, it would be a different story if he lost to Luca's direct disciple.

Luca's prowess was equivalent to Dragonmarsh's top ultimate grandmaster, and his influence was comparable to the Sword Union's leader, Cyrus Hadley.

Since Cyrus's direct disciple was Glenn Hadley, Marco's opponents were formidable figures like Glenn. Miles losing to Marco was understandable.

"Jump Force is indeed powerful. But with how calm Dustin is, perhaps he's already found a way around it," Dalen commented calmly.

"Hmph! Calm my foot! He's either completely clueless or scared out of his wits," Ruby sneered.

"Dalen, have you known Dustin for long?" Crystal asked out of curiosity.

"Today is the first time we met," Dalen answered truthfully.

"You just met him, and yet you have so much trust in him. Why is that?" Crystal was puzzled.

Everyone had doubted Dustin from the moment he issued a challenge, and Dalen had been the only one consistently supportive of him. She couldn't fathom how Dalen could put so much trust in Dustin.

"It's just a feeling." Dalen continued frankly, "I possess a strong sixth sense, and I have a feeling that Dustin is no ordinary person."
