Chapter 23: Does Satoshi Have Any Trump Cards?
Shinsuke never expected to hear such an unfamiliar phrase from Satoshi's mouth.
Although this kind of duel had not taken place in a long time, every core member of the Three Great Families was aware of the custom—Zenin Shinsuke included.
What he couldn't understand was why Satoshi would invoke an Imperial Duel over something so trivial.
He acknowledged that Satoru was incredibly powerful, his speed and the sheer strength of his cursed energy earlier had surpassed his own in every aspect.
However, Satoru was not the one who initiated the duel.
It was Satoshi.
A six-year-old boy with Heavenly Restriction, someone incapable of using cursed energy, had actually challenged him—a Grade 3 sorcerer to a duel?
Shinsuke's face twisted in anger.
This was an insult.
"You have no cursed energy. If I accept this duel, it would be nothing short of bullying you."
Despite his arrogance, Shinsuke carried the pride of the Zenin clan.
