As Dronvet grappled with the situation, Atticus' mind was far calmer. He observed, countered, and moved to kill. That had been his strategy this entire fight.
Unlike High Marshal Dronvet, he knew exactly what was going on. The people of Surnix Hold had far more variations of power than he had expected.
They could control the elements and many other forces using their mastery over mana. It was intriguing, but Atticus buried that curiosity and focused on the battle.
Unfortunately for the High Marshal, their variations weren't enough.
Every attack Dronvet sent had been met with a perfect counter, putting the Marshal on the brink of death numerous times.
However, Dronvet always escaped with a new trick. But right now, Atticus was working out a way to make escape impossible.
'Our wills are on the same level.'
During his battle with the twins of Bloom and Blight, Atticus had overwhelmed them due to concept matchup.
