Kapitel 1591: Catch [1]

Grand Duke Maveth never once approached the action.

He was the first to sense Damien, as he was the current strongest Noble. However, even then, he remained hidden behind countless walls as if he was the weakest.

Why?

Was it because his mind was better than his strength?

No.

Maveth did have a great mind. He was able to create technological systems like the drones that blanketed the world in search for Damien after glimpsing similar technology in the True Void Universe.

The Sacred Abyss Universe didn't have anything of the sort as precedent, so Maveth could only be considered a genius.

Still, his strength was his best asset. Maveth trained from his youth as a warrior, not an intellectual. His mind was just an added plus, a talent he could use to further boost his true power.

But that left the question unanswered.

Why did Grand Duke Maveth seem to fear direct combat in this instance?

The truth was, he didn't.
