Reaction

Soon enough, it was Damian's turn on the stage, and his opponent was the Rank 28th student.

Unlike Asher's fight, Damian's duel lasted a good 28 seconds.

Damian was a Shield User, so in a duel, he was naturally at a disadvantage. However, instead of being defensive, Damian was extremely aggressive, which threw his opponent off.

After the fight went on for a bit less than half a minute, the opponent made a mistake by trying to use a feint attack. Damian noticed a gap in his footwork, providing an opportunity for him.

'His son is quite good as well,' Alfred thought as he watched the match.

Damian's ability to react to any fighting style was so impressive that Alfred could discern where he had learned it.

David Seymour was a great fighter himself and one of the few Hunters who fought barehanded and didn't use any weapons.

"It's a pity he's using a shield," Alfred said.

"It's their choice; we can only guide them," Farnus replied.
