An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

“No way! That priest looked ordinary and didn’t seem like a threat,” Aurora said, puzzled.

Given Fenley’s skills, he was among the best in Dragonmarsh. So, she figured he had no reason to be afraid of those three Strequans.

“You can’t judge a book by its cover. Among those three, the priest is the strongest. If you ever run into him, avoid him at all costs,” Fenley warned earnestly.

If he had been alone earlier, he wouldn’t have been concerned. But with Aurora and Alicia by his side, he had to be cautious and couldn’t fight freely.

He knew Jeremiah could distract him if they fought while Bill and George captured the Marshall sisters. With the sisters’ lives as leverage, the other party could turn the situation in their favor.

So, Fenley decided to let the matter slide for the sisters’ safety and stop pursuing the matter.

“Okay, I understand.” Seeing how serious he was, Aurora nodded.

“Fenley, those people mentioned about competing in the Combat Tournament tomorrow. You might faced off with them, so be careful,” Alicia reminded him.

She knew Bill was strong, but Jeremiah’s strength was an unknown factor. Until they had a clearer picture of their opponents, being cautious was the safest approach.

“These people aren’t here with good intentions, so we should stay alert,” Fenley said, nodding.

“But don’t worry. Our nation has plenty of hidden talents. If we faced off in the battle ring,
