CCVII. The Encouragement

None of the warriors who had witnessed the battle uttered a sound. Everyone was waiting for Dag's answer, trying to metabolize what had happened a few moments earlier.

Gridd looked at his brother, fearful that he could reveal the true nature of his powers, which would cause havoc among his people.

"I don't know yet, Master Dargeon. What I do know is that now I can finally control my strength and I can dose it to my liking. Your shield is certainly the toughest thing I've ever hit, I think I was just lucky... maybe I hit a particularly vulnerable spot..." Dag answered, lying about his dark powers and the fact that, if he wanted to, he could reduce that shield to a thousand pieces, using his full potential.

"So! You said you wanted a fight between Masters, right? Here you are satisfied! Now you know the power of the new Master Of Offense! I advise you not to anger him!" shouted Egill, trying to distract the crowd of warriors, from the questioning expression.
