For the first time in years, Marcus felt… Alive.
Even as he set his eyes on his opponent, his entire life started to flash in front of his eyes, almost as if this was the moment that would give meaning to it all, or also make it all mean nothing, thereby relegating him to endless regret.
He could tell that his opponent was quite startled by how the situation had changed. But instead of seeing him as her main problem, the first thing she was doing was evaluating methods that she could use to escape.
The reason behind this was quite obvious: from his appearance, it had been exposed that this cavern was not as secure as she had thought it to be. If he could come in, couldn't her other enemies also follow her to this place? If so, wouldn't it be easier to leave?
We;;, Marcus wouldn't be giving her an option in that matter.
