@IMACOP it was stated it was liquor from the start, then mixed with "poison". The dude knew it was his lost the moment he drank the liquor and did not let his daughter finish the "poison".
Pretty sure the doctor said either he had high external force or was from the metal clan.
So he is not outta trouble yet by just claiming he got a couple hits in
He has to explain how he survived getting smacked when the sword masters quite literally got one shot.
@NP-3228 actually there is a surprisingly few cases of popes being assassinated. At the peak of Christian power, Kings merely disagreed or refused to accept a pope. Even when Christianity was being split up and filling Europe with wars, the pope wasn't killed and just had his influence...
Hahaha, its even worse. Upon rereading this chapter, the "rival" pushed his cuties back a bit to safety when the MC charged him.
Even worse, if you make the MC the villian, the MC is mad that the "rival" disrespected his family, "his noble blood", and makes a deal with the devil to make him...
This isnt even the classic noble retard versus commoner issue since the dude notes his "rival" is actually the top. The "rival" even lets the MC off easy when the MC swung a sword at defenseless him, lmao. The dude even accepts a challenge.
