Capítulo 167: A New Dawn for Lunan

The duel was over but neither side made a move.

Baldwin remained kneeling even after recovering enough to realize what had happened, the man remained on his knees knowing his life could be taken in an instant if Julius wished it so.

Behind him, he could feel the anxiety of his men knowing that what happened next depended more so on them than on what he himself did.

Meanwhile in front of him when his eyes were raised he could see the awaiting legionnaires were just as anxious but never lowering their guard knowing full well that if the Germanics abandoned their Honour they'd need to rush forward to protect their lord, as great at fighting though he might be against an army he could not survive for long even with his mana arts.

This tense stalemate seemed to last forever, till Julius's blade was remove from Baldwin's neck.
