Chapter 269: When her energies react, people should stay back
Elliana stood there in shock as she noticed Marcus swinging his sword at Sebastian again and again, which he was barely dodging.
"Mr. Marino, what are you doing? Defend yourself and attack back," Elliana shouted, her hands getting sweaty as her palms itched to do something.
If it was in her hands and she didn’t have the fear of risking it all if she used her powers, she would’ve broken that hand that was using the sword against Mr. Marino long ago.
"I am trying, Princess. I am too tired right now. The game will only end until one of us is down on the ground, but there is no way I am bowing in front of anyone," Sebastian said, and Elliana bit her lower lips.
It was as she had thought. He was tired. She glared at Prince Marcus, who was attacking Mr. Marino again as if he was taking some kind of anger on him.
It was clear.
If she wanted to help Mr. Marino, there were only two options left. Either she picks a sword and defends him against Prince Marcus, which would be really tough seeing how he is overpowering even Mr. Marino. The second option was to use her magic and crush that sword and control Prince Marcus’s movements.
Both the options have their demerits and can turn everything against her. If she used a sword, Mr Marino would confirm that it was her that night, and if she used her magic, they’d be suspicious that some witch was lurking around them.
There was no other choice left.
Her gaze settled on his sword, and she was about to do something when her gaze met with Stephano who was standing at some distance.
He wasn’t just looking at her. He was observing her. Elliana blinked her eyes twice, noticing how almost everyone was observing her.
