An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 2197

When the shadowsteel whip was swung, it crackled with power and delivered precise strikes that were impossible for anyone to dodge.

Despite the strength of Number 33's opponent, he was forced to retreat and unable to close the distance.

In mere minutes, the opponent endured a relentless barrage of lashes. His body was marked with bloody welts.

He gritted his teeth and persevered for another two minutes before being knocked off the battle ring by Number 33's whip.

The sight sparked cheers at the betting tables as many people jumped up excitedly.

"Haha… I won! Number 33 is the winner!"

"Heh… Awesome! I finally picked the right horse!"

"Damn it! If I'd known, I would've gone all in. This measly payout is hardly satisfying!"

Number 33's win had the whole crowd cheering and celebrating. Most of the gamblers were thrilled by their newfound winnings.

But for some, there was a pang of regret for playing it too safe. When they held the celestial stones in hand, that regret only intensified.

They could've hit the jackpot if they hadn't been so cautious. It was a missed chance that stung.

"Sir, you're awesome! You said Number 33 would win, and he really did. You're our lucky charm!"

"Hell yeah! From now on, whoever you bet on, I'll follow. Anyone dares to doubt you, I'll smack them!"
