Nobilis of War novel Chapter 11

Darren had to be cautious because he lacked the battle experience. He had not been able to properly train and use his power in account of him having just reached the seventh stage from the third stage within one day.

"The power of his fists is indeed strong."

Darren dodged and avoided Marvin's attack.

But as soon as Marvin's fist failed to land on Darren, another fist quickly followed. This time, he used all the force he could muster.

Seeing that he had nowhere to hide, Darren clenched his hand into a fist and punched back.

Boom!

The impact created by both of their fists was too powerful that Darren was thrown several strides backwards and Marvin a few couple of paces opposite.

"I haven't expected that you've already reached the peak of the seventh stage! That's great and all, but there obviously still is an impassable gap between our stages, and you haven't been able to defeat me. Now, let me show you how powerful I am."

Marvin felt much relieved after having witnessed Darren's real strength. The difference between the seventh stage and the eighth stage seemed to be little to non-existent, but in reality, there was still an immensely large disparity between the two stages.

"He is in danger," Elsa stated, accompanied by a worried scowl on her face.

But Darren was composed. He knew that the difference between him and Marvin was not impossible to overcome.

He was just learning how to adjust himself to the fight, that's all.

"I will kill you!" he shouted. Marvin started to storm towards Darren again. He extended out his fists and took a hack at him. The attack was so powerful that it felt as though his fists alone could break the mountain into pieces.

Darren dodged the attack as much as he could. Although he was not stronger than Marvin in terms of strength in the battle, he had enough wits about him to remain unhurt by Marvin's barrage of attacks.

Even at the eighth stage of the Primary Realm, Marvin still hasn’t succeeded in trying to defeat Darren.

The fight dragged on and before they knew it, half an hour had passed as they arrived at a deadlock.

Marvin's initial anger morphed into shocked frustration after he came to the realization that even though Darren has just reached the seventh stage, he still was not able to defeat the boy. He started to get fatigued and he grew more exhausted with every second that passed. He kept thinking that things would have been a lot of easier if he had used his full strength from the very beginning of the fight.

"He quickly gained experience in the battle. He is such a fast learner," Elsa remarked. She felt a sensation in the pit of her stomach as she stood beside them.

She was astounded by Darren's ability to learn so much in just a short amount of time. Even though she herself was at level nine of the Yellow Degree, it took her a while and experienced difficulty in achieving it. Theoretically speaking, it should have been more difficult for Darren to do that when he was inferior to others in stage.
