Chapter 231: Merciless (II)
Cain’s blood tainted the ground beneath his feet, and a sense of utter shock filled the hearts of all the soldiers and students as the Ego Wave vanished from the battlefield. Even in his weakened state, Cain could use his Free Ego, but the wound appeared so dire that he could not even think.
That scene paralyzed everybody except for the one that orchestrated the entire thing.
Dominic showed a vicious smile as he saw the blood falling into the ground. For the last few months, he had been training Cinthy in the art of deception and even went to the extreme of obtaining a robe that could hide things from Ego Wave.
Everything the scion did was calculated considering every possible factor. He even tricked the students by his side, all to allow Cinthy close enough to land a lethal blow to Cain.
The fact that losing your sword in this dimension left you in an extremely weakened state was just what Dominic needed.
Dominic was ready to carry on with the next phase of his plan, taking advantage of the soldiers’ shock to kill everybody and take control of the student force, when a voice echoed.
"Is this the best you have?"
That voice was so cold that it made Dominic, the scions, and even the soldiers tremble.
It had no rage or anger, the opposite. There was a lack of emotion in it, so disturbing that the willpower of those youths present could not tolerate it.
"So disappointing."
If the others were shocked, one could not even imagine the terror flooding Cinthy’s heart as she saw two red eyes focusing on her.
Cinthy’s body began to tremble, and her instincts screamed for her to run away, but she could not move due to the hand holding her short sword.
