Chapitre 170: Establishing Authority

True to his aim, Marcius's sword penetrated the throat of elder Khalid and got out from the other side. Then, with a twist of his hand, the champion of Sol swiftly cut off the head of the elder in an efficient manner.

The duel was over.

And Marcius Aemilia was victorious.

He looked down at the separated head and body of elder Khalid as he flicked off the blood from his God Sword. His sentient sword did like killing, maiming, and violent in general, but it was also very picky about being left in a bloodied and dirty condition for a long time.

"The… the duel is done." It was the female elder who acted as the referee of the duel who spoke up first. "Marcius Aemilia is the winner."

There was no cheer or clap for the supposed victory. The people of the village were still reeling from the fact that a very young man without much battle experience had just managed to kill off an elder of the village, a pillar of the region.
