So what if you're the demon king? I'm Ben Faulkner
It wasn't as easy for Anos to kill Philips as he made it look.
In reality he was feeling dizzy and slightly disoriented after launching that move, however, he did not let it show on his face, which made Duke Nico mistake him for a Grandmaster level fighter, after all only a Grandmaster level fighter could beat a master level fighter in one move.
However, the truth of the matter was that it wasn't Anos who was a Grandmaster level fighter, but the move that he unleashed that was extremely powerful, however, with his calm demeanor, he made it look like the move was nothing special, while he was the real deal.
"The attack that the human unleashed was quite strong…. Heck I might have even died if I was the one facing it–"
"Only our King can defeat a powerful move like that as if it's nothing. After All, he is the one who managed to tame the mighty black dragon Drogo"
