Chapter 68 – Michael

Soran took a deep breath to calm down.

"Then why didn't you use your sword?" he asked.

"I did," Shang answered. "Without it, I couldn't have created an opening."

"This is not what I meant," Soran said with a frustrated voice. "You used a sword, yes, but you didn't use it to win."

"Yes, I did," Shang answered. "Without it, I couldn't have created an opening."

Soran's right eyelid twitched as Mervin began laughing.

"He did use a sword to win," Mervin commented from the side with a smirk.

Soran threw a threatening look at Mervin, but Mervin didn't care.

"Why didn't you use your sword the entire time? Don't you know that throwing your weapon away is basically suicide in a battle?" Soran asked with furrowed brows.

"How is it suicide when I won?" Shang asked.

"There could have been other opponents around, and after you took down your current opponent, you might not have the time to retrieve your sword," Soran said.
