Chapter 152: Time Limit.
*STAB*
Ichiro's spear-like arm pierced through Avery's left arm.
But Avery's used his right hand and chopped towards Ichiro's shoulder.
*PFFT*
Avery's hand pierced through Ichiro's shoulder all the way down to the bone.
''Ah…'' Ichiro grimaced in pain.
He couldn't put his muscles to block the attack in time because he concentrated his muscles on his Iron Lance.
Avery bit his lip, which caused his lip to start bleeding.
He felt Ichiro's hand touching his bone, which wasn't a pleasurable experience.
Ichiro removed his hand from Avery's hand, and he did the same.
Both of them retreated some distance away and tried to stop their bleeding.
Ichiro used his muscles and closed the wound forcefully.
Avery looked at his arm and grimaced.
He clenched his left arm, and the wound started slowly closing in.
The feats they are doing like it was nothing is in the realm of the supernatural!
Ichiro took a large step forwards.
[Iron Destruction!]
The wind gathered around his fist, and the moment he unleashed his punch… A sound of boom happened.
If this was the strength of his punch when he was doing the punching strength test…
Instead of getting a score of 14k… He would be getting a score of 50k!
Avery put his arms as block and lowered his stance.
*SMACK*
The punch hit the block, and Ichiro's muscles were bulging like there was no tomorrow.
This was his all-out punch!
Avery felt the strength of the punch, and he definitely can't block it.
But once the punch hit his block, he started spinning, redirecting the impact of the force away from him.
But that wasn't all.
Once Avery stopped spinning, he unleashed a terrifying back kick, which hit Ichiro's torso.
''ARGH!'' The kick sent Ichiro flying a few hundred meters, and his chest had massive leg print.
*CRACK*
Ichiro crashed on the ground, but he quickly stood up.
*SWOOSH*
Avery wasn't done, and he immediately appeared in front of him and started raining punches!
[Steel Edge - Lightning Hindering!]
Ichiro quickly used his signature move and started redirecting Avery's every punch.
Avery's eyebrow started twitching, 'This move again!'
With anger, he unleashed a straight punch, but that was what Ichiro wanted him to do.
[Steel Edge - Universe Stop!]
He put his palm forwards and stopped the incoming punch.
While Avery was still astonished, Ichiro unleashed his own straight punch and hit Avery in the face, which sent him flying few hundred meters.
*BAM*
Avery's body pounced from the ground few times until his body's momentum stopped, and he could stand up again.
[Iron Burst!]
Ichiro moved like lightning and appeared in front of Avery!
[Ironing Ridge!]
He used his elbow and attacked Avery's stomach!
But Avery quickly put his arms as a block and blocked the elbow, but it still made him grimace in pain.
But then…
[Iron Style's Double Combo Move - Ironing Ridge + Iron Hand!]
Ichiro used his backhand and hit Avery in the face.
''PFFT!'' Avery's nose broke, and blood started flowing without stopping.
He angrily glared at Ichiro, but then Ichiro grabbed his collar and threw him to the ground!
[Iron Style's Triple Combo Move - Ironing Ridge + Iron Hand+ Iron Throw!]
Avery's head crashed on the ground again, and the previous injury which Sariel caused made the pain even worse.
Because there was still a wound on the back of his head, and it crashed with the ground.
[Iron Style's Quadruple Combo Move - Ironing Ridge + Iron Hand + Iron Throw + Steel Smash!]
Ichiro slammed his fist onto Avery's face.
''PFTT!'' Blood started covering Avery's vision.
Ichiro quickly mounted Avery and started smashing his fist onto Avery's unguarded face.
*SMACK*
*SMACK*
*SMACK*
*SMACK*
*SMACK*
Avery's handsome face started slowly disappearing, and only a bloody mess was left.
''KYAA!'' The female population in the audience screamed with horror.
''WHY IS HE SO RUTHLESS TOWARDS OUR PRINCE?''
''ARE YOU BLIND SLUT? AVERY TRIED TO KILL OUR LOVELY ICHIRO!''
A battle between two female populations started.
One side cheered Avery, and the other side cheered Ichiro.
''GO, ICHIRO! FUCKING KILL HIM!'' Rafael shouted with bloodshot eyes.
''COME ON, ICHIRO!'' Richard cheered as well.
Giron stayed quiet, but his blood was pumping.
''AVERY!'' Seiji and Daiki looked pale.
…
In Nightside Residence.
''COME ON, ICHIRO!'' Aether cheered loudly.
Abyss had a calm smile, but he had a feeling that Avery won't go down this easily.
…
In Sunlove Residence.
''KILL THAT BASTARD!'' Lily and Amy cheered loudly.
Solar's body was trembling out of nervousness, it wasn't the first time when Avery seemed like he lost, but in the end, he won.
Luna in her room also had the widest smile she ever had.
''Not so cocky anymore, huh? Where is that face you are so proud of, eh?''
She smugly looked at her laptop and saw all the people praising Ichiro.
She felt incredibly proud of that, even though they didn't talk about her.
…
''AVERY!'' Avron shouted with bloodshot eyes.
First, Avery revealed their highly guarded secret, which he planned to reveal only when they fight against Royal Family, but now that was revealed.
But Avery still can't win!
The Elders looked pale.
They felt like the heavens were falling down.
…
''MMM!'' Avery used both of his arms and pushed Ichiro away with pure strength.
Ichiro stumbled a few meters, but he quickly stabilized and went after Avery.
''AAHHHH!'' Avery screamed madly.
Half of his teeth were missing, and his nose was twisted at a weird angle. There was no sign of his previous handsomeness anywhere.
[Ultimate Moon Technique - Moon's Depart!]
Avery used his two fingers and pushed them forwards towards Ichiro's eyes!
Ichiro quickly tilted his head and barely dodged the fingers.
'He tried to destroy my eyes!' Ichiro now knew that Avery wasn't playing around.
Avery… Tries to kill him from now on.
[Ultimate Moon Technique - Moon's Revenge!]
Avery again tried to use his hand and pierce through Ichiro's body.
But…
[Steel Edge!]
Ichiro quickly used his palm and redirected the attack.
[Steel Smash - END IS NEAR!]
Avery put his arms as a block, but Ichiro's punch sent him sliding a dozen meters.
Ichiro was about to continue attacking… But then…
Something which he didn't want to happen… Happened.
His muscles didn't listen to him anymore!
His time limit is closing in!
'Fuck…' Ichiro grimaced and felt his muscle mass decreasing.
'Should I use it… No… I don't want to win like that! There is still time left!' Ichiro had no time to waste.
So without further ado…
He attacked!
