The Man’s Decree – Chapter 5528

Cormac thrust both palms outward, his shield ballooned, slamming into the incoming sword-light.

The collision detonated with a cannon, blast boom, a shockwave rippling out in a perfect circle. Ancient oil lamps along the walls fluttered madly, their sickly green flames sputtering, ready to die at any moment.

Jared twisted mid-air, sliding past the worst of the concussion.

Before the echo faded, he was already upon Cormac again, Dragonslayer stabbing forward like a serpent's forked tongue, aimed unerringly at the hollow of the man's throat.

Cormac's reflexes matched the speed of his fury. He pivoted, shoulders slipping clear, and hammered a fist encased in swirling celestial energy toward Jared's chest, the kind of strike that could turn a mountain into gravel.
