Chapter 91.8 - Duels [2]

As the words left Vincent's lips, the amphitheater erupted into a cacophony of surprised exclamations. The audience, who had been convinced of Lucas's impending defeat just moments ago, was now grappling with the sheer skill and strategy they had witnessed.

"Unbelievable!"

"Did you see that? He played him like a fiddle!"

"Lucas Middleton is a genius. That was a masterclass in swordsmanship."

The fact that Lucas had completely dominated the duel and won in a mere five minutes was a considerable achievement. Typically, duels between berserkers and speed types dragged on, each combatant exploiting their respective strengths. But this time, it was as if Lucas had been several steps ahead of Vincent from the start.

In the stands, the reactions were varied. The vassals and the allies of the Middleton family turned all their attention to the person whose opinion was most valuable.
