Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 2724

Bathed in the winter sunlight within a weather-beaten courtyard in Skargness, Rocco spoke in a calm yet chilling tone, "You've disappointed me."

Despite the tranquility in Rocco's voice, his underlings standing behind him were soaked in cold sweat. The calmer Rocco seemed, the more palpable his simmering rage became.

"The Goldfin Blade is ruined. The precious concealed weapon I painstakingly procured is now squandered because of your incompetence. And you inform me that Solon is still breathing? What use are you?"

Rocco's grip tightened around the teacup in his hand, causing it to shatter with a deafening crash. The sound echoed across the courtyard, compelling his subordinates to kneel in terror.

Thorin Wells, their leader, begged for mercy in desperation. "Master Rocco… please, spare us. We didn't foresee Matthew concealing his prowess so effectively. His longsword is extraordinarily sharp, and his swordsmanship is formidable!"

Rocco's eyebrows lifted, a spark of intrigue flickering in his eyes. "Elaborate!"

As Thorin recounted the battle, Rocco maintained a steady rhythm by tapping the armrest of his chair. Each tap instilled fear in his underlings, making them shudder in cold sweat.

"I underestimated Matthew. He deviates from the norm, retreats to advance, and skillfully distances himself from the heart of the conflict."

Impressed by Matthew's tactics, Rocco didn't exhibit anger. Instead, a glimmer of anticipation appeared in his eyes.

During the Dewsbury battle, Rocco had held back, not unleashing his full might. However, he hadn't expected Matthew to hide his abilities so profoundly.

"Indeed, he is a formidable adversary. As for all of you..."

Rocco paused, then, with a swift hand gesture, pointed toward Thorin. Despite the distance, Rocco's motion sent Thorin sprawling several feet away.

"Now, here's your final opportunity. Eliminate Solon. Fail again, and you'll face the repercussions."

As long as Solon was eliminated, the relentless Durham Family would not relent. When that occurred, the unrest in Seraphis was bound to intensify.
