Volume 27: Sudden Storm Arising, Chapter 4: Killing to No Avail

When the thick and heavy Dragon Spear wrapped in fierce qi energy swept over, the Dwarven Obese Knight realized that his opponent had already entered combat mode, completely disregarding the normative code of knights—this strike was a classic example of a sneak attack!

Whether it was a sneak attack or a fair fight, at this point, feelings like anger, annoyance, disdain, and hatred could not change the current situation. Shatima was quite smart to a certain extent; Solonberg's failure had deeply affected her, and she didn't want to end her journey in Marco as disgracefully as Solonberg had. Unlike the knights, she did not have their painstaking hesitations. To defeat her opponent, any means were perfectly acceptable. The human tendency to judge by appearances was not a problem for her. For Shatima, a lethal strike was indeed the most appropriate outcome.
