Chương 45: The Final Pearl

"That guy's doing fine," Stark was relieved, if Orasio had died, then he would have had to fight the fake Stark, which was a game over, yet now there was no way he could lose since he could just use [Block] forever.

But Stark failed to take something into account: that the shadow was smart enough to know that too.

And so sensing that it was about to lose, it did something they hadn't expected: it rushed at Stark, abandoning its fight with Orasio.

"Huh?" Stark saw it coming thanks to the upgraded [Focus] and was able to block the attack by crossing his arms.

"-321!" he received minimal damage, and then he kicked the air in the creeping shadow's direction, but it just backed away.

Stark was surrounded by the two shadows now, behind was Orasio's, which just had its shield positioned to block, and on the other hand was Stark's, its eyes burning with an extremely familiar determination.

It was almost as if the shadow was a real being.
