Marcus couldn't escape from Deus' grip and frowned when he realized he could only do one thing. Hopefully Meruin spell would be activated before Deus slit Marcus's throat. With the room he had Marcus, which he truly regarded doing, tossed Cornelia as hard and as far as he could away from him and Deus. He elbowed Deus in the stomach and and stood in an defensive stand facing him. Marcus was tired and knew he was not gonna win this fight. But that didn't matter he has to protect the person he loves. Marcus persuade Deus throwing countless numbers of punches. His fist were moving quite fast but it was probably slowler than the movement of a snail in Deus' eyes.
