Chapter 146: Sariel's Edge!
[Wyrward Family Technique - Ten Punches!]
Sariel's arms became blurry, and it looked like ten fists appeared in front of Avery!
Avery simply moved his body slightly to the left and dodged the punches.
*SWOOSH*
Avery's arm became blurry, and his fist appeared in front of Sariel's face.
*SMACK*
Sariel's head was pushed backward, and his nose started bleeding.
Sariel quickly jumped backward, and because he did that. Avery's incoming punches missed their marks.
Sariel wiped the blood from his nose.
The punch that hit Sariel was only a simple jab from Avery, but even that made Sariel's face numb from pain.
Avery started running towards Sariel— he raised his leg and kicked towards Sariel's neck.
Sariel quickly put his hands as a block, but he was sent flying, but gladly the edge of the arena is much farther because the arena is much larger than before.
He landed on the ground without any significant injuries, except the stinging pain on his arm.
'This insect is a tough one… Good…' Avery grinned viciously.
'Maybe crippling his leg will make him feel despair after knowing that his future is gone?' Avery thought with an excited face.
Sariel didn't know what kind of wicked thoughts were going on in Avery's mind.
He simply started strolling towards Avery.
''Hey.'' Avery opened his mouth.
''What?'' Sariel raised an eyebrow.
''Which leg is your favorite?'' Avery asked curiously.
Sariel didn't answer— instead, he appeared in front of Avery and kicked towards Avery's torso.
''Hmph.'' Avery snorted and dodged towards left.
'Fine… I will cripple both of your legs.' Avery thought menacingly.
In the Coldland's team stands.
''Why isn't Sariel using his throws?'' Rafael asked curiously.
''Avery won't let him get close.'' Giron said, ''Sariel was trying to use his punches as a decoy to grab Avery's clothing, but he didn't fall for it.''
''I see…'' Rafael nodded.
'Even if he is arrogant… He isn't stupid.' Giron thought.
He felt like this match became so much harder.
It would be easier if Avery was blinded by his arrogance.
But he isn't a stupid individual.
Of course, he isn't… Otherwise, the Royal Family of Marq would have found out about Avery's wicked actions.
And Avery has an excellent reputation with common folks because of his remarkable intelligence and acting skills.
The reason why Avery is wasting his time with common folks is because… He wants to be the Emperor!
Common folks' help is crucial, and that's why he is acting like Saint in front of them.
But he couldn't care less in front of some Nobles.
Moonstar family is big enough to face Royal Family and big enough to suppress other noble houses.
The reason why the Moonstar family is trying to get the Nightside family as their ally is because Abyss is incredibly valuable in the fight against Royal Family and the noble houses.
But why did the Royal Family accept Avron's request?
The Emperor knew that Avery can't be defeated there and that the Moonstar family will only grow stronger.
Avron was sure that the Emperor didn't know the real reason why they were going there.
But he knows.
The reason why he accepted is because…
Abyss.
Abyss called him and told him the reason they are going to Arya.
The Emperor wanted to reject that request instantly, but Abyss wanted him to accept
The Emperor was shocked and wanted to know his reasoning.
Abyss with a calm voice said…
''Avery, will lose.''
The Emperor was shocked and doubtful.
Everyone knows the terrifying prowess Avery holds.
Especially with Moon Techniques.
Avery has mastered 60% of Moon Techniques! And he is only 16 years old!
Avron is close to his 40s, and he has only learned 80%!
That says a lot about his terrifying talent.
''Trust me… Avery will lose.'' Abyss said with certainty.
The Emperor decided to believe him.
After all, he is childhood friends with Abyss, and he would never lie to him.
The Emperor accepted the request but also told Avron that if Avery loses, he isn't allowed to return to Capital City ever again.
That would mean that Avery can't become Emperor.
Avron with his arrogance accepted.
There is no way that Avery would lose.
In some sense, that is true…
But they have forgotten one very crucial thing…
The Kings of High School of Fighting doesn't have the nickname of Undefeatable for no reason.
…
''RAA!'' Sariel shouted and started exchanging punches with Avery.
Avery's punches was easily stronger, and Sariel was being pushed backward after every exchange.
*SWOOSH*
*SMACK*
Avery's punch hit Sariel in the cheek, which made his neck stretch in an uncomfortable way.
*SMACK*
Avery's second fist hit Sariel in his abdomen, which made a slight cracking sound.
Sariel's face morphed into pain, but then Avery's third fist hit his face.
''PFFT!'' Sariel's face was pushed backward, and his nose was broken.
Blood left his nose and his mouth.
The audience went silent.
Avery was completely dominating the match!
No one thought this was possible, but it is happening.
''AVERY!'' His name echoed in the stadium.
Everyone felt excited after seeing dark horse defeating one of the Kings!
''GO, AVERYY!'' Seiji and Daiki shouted with excited faces.
Sariel's face was becoming blurry, and then another fist hit his face.
Avery had a disgusting grin on his face, and he kept pummeling Sariel's face until it was a bloody mess.
Then he looked at Sariel's legs.
''You don't need those anymore!'' Avery shouted and kicked towards Sariel's knee.
Attempting to cripple him.
Sariel only watched with hazy vision as the kick was coming closer.
But he didn't feel pain or fear.
He felt calm.
A certain memory surfaced into his mind.
A figure showed in his memory… That figure was… Ichiro.
In the memory, Ichiro used the mysterious technique to redirect and deflect every move his opponents make.
Rafael hated that technique with passion.
It was so annoying to fight against!
Michael hated that technique as well. He once fought a sparring match against Ichiro, and he had no way to attack Ichiro while he was using that technique.
But what Sariel thought about that technique…
He was amazed.
That technique became his obsession.
After training hours were over. He stayed training for another 3 or 4 hours.
But, he only trained one technique.
He trained Ichiro's technique.
At first, Sariel couldn't learn that technique no matter how hard he tried.
That made him more excited.
He learned Wyrward Family Techniques with ease, and it became boring.
But Ichiro's techniques were on a whole new level.
He kept training and training.
Until one day… He succeeded!
Avery's kick was only an inch away from Sariel's knee.
But then… Sariel's palm appeared in front of his knee.
Avery snorted, 'You want your hand to be broken as well? Fine by me!'
Sariel smiled and touched Avery's leg.
