Dominic didn't notice the Fiend's peculiar expression. But when he saw Nathan, he let out a grin and said, "Haha, Nathan, you always come looking for death, don't you?"
"The Fiend, the man I want you to kill is standing right in front of you. Go ahead, kill him now so I can watch his death through live streaming. How exciting, hahaha," he then said to the Fiend.
The Fiend didn't respond to Dominic. Instead, he gave Nathan a death stare as if he were facing his greatest enemy.
Nathan, however, maintained his composure and told the Fiend calmly, "Since you slit Zayn's throat with a knife, I'll also strike you once with a knife. If you manage to defend yourself, you can leave Summerton in one piece."
Right after he finished speaking, he grabbed a fruit knife from the coffee table.
The Fiend licked his lips when he heard Nathan's words, gripping his dagger tightly with a grin on his face. "If I'm not mistaken, you're a big shot, and you won't break your word for sure," he said.
Nathan responded in a cold tone, "Take your shot!"
"Alright!" the Fiend yelled.
Like a leopard hunting its prey, he charged violently towards Nathan in a flash.
Likewise, Nathan raced toward him like a racehorse.
The two crossed each other at the speed of light, and they landed with their backs facing each other.
Dominic, who was still on the video call, widened his eyes and watched them anxiously.
Nathan and the Fiend crossed each other so quickly that Dominic couldn't tell who won and who lost.
A moment later, he saw Nathan putting down the fruit knife and telling the Fiend, "Like I said, I will make one strike. Goodbye!"
Right after that, he left with Colin.
Dumbfounded, Dominic turned to look at the Fiend.
Clang! The dagger in the Fiend's hand dropped onto the floor.
Lowering his head, he looked at his chest and struggled as he said, "This person is indeed terrifying..."
