An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori novel Chapter 2186

At that moment, the man in black wasn't the only one surprised. All the spectators fixated on the first battle ring were also shocked.

Nobody had anticipated that Number 6 would wear such heavy armor.

The darksteel armor that weighed several thousand pounds was typically used for weight-bearing training. Even for the Divine-level martial artist, wearing it for just ten minutes would be taxing on the body.

Even the most skilled martial artists would wear it for only a few hours. Yet, she wore the dark steel armor as if it were nothing. She even wore it into the battle ring to fight.

Wasn't her decision to wear this armor during the fight foolish?

"You… you've been wearing this while fighting with me?" The man in black couldn't believe his eyes as he pointed at the darksteel armor lying on the ground.

"Yeah, what about it?" She stretched her neck and hips as she gradually moved her lithe body. Once the armor was removed, she felt much more agile.

He couldn't help but ask again, "How long have you been wearing that armor?"

"Every day," Number 6 replied.

She added earnestly, "My mentor instructed me to wear it at all times unless I'm in danger. So, even when sleeping, I have to wear it. It's been several years, but it wasn't this heavy initially."

"Uh…" The man in black's mouth twitched. He was momentarily at a loss for words.

He couldn't believe it when she mentioned wearing the armor daily for years. It made him question if this was how she lived her life.

The man in black stumbled backward, and his hands trembled from the impact as his staff hummed.

He was taken aback and murmured, "She's so fast! And so strong!"

He had previously thought Number 6's movement was somewhat sluggish, which made her relatively easy to handle.

But now, without her darksteel armor, she moved with newfound speed and agility. And with her inherent strength, her increased speed posed a far greater threat.

His arm was still numb, but Number 6 swung her halberd again.
