Chapter 197

They were in a daze, and they didn’t expect to be able to see such an exciting battle. Also, they somehow started to doubt whether Tsukasa was really someone without a blessing or not since fighting a Level 5 adventurer until now wasn’t something that someone without a blessing could do.

Still, even so, they must admit Tsukasa was strong!

However, the audience who were sitting nearby suddenly felt something warm and wet hit their faces.

“What is this?”

They wondered whether it was raining, but when they wiped their faces, they were dumbfounded.

“Is-Is this blood?!”

“Blood?!”

Whose blood?

They became dumbfounded when they knew the source of the blood.

“He-Hey, isn’t this getting dangerous?”

“Yeah… should someone stop them?”

The people became panicked when they saw Tsukasa’s state since his state was so bad!

His body was full of blood, his arms turned purple, and many could see his bones from his arms.

On the other hand, Tiona wasn’t much better since many parts of her body were slashed by him.

Tiona, who fought Tsukasa, had changed her opinion about him. Before, she might just want to mate him, but now, she saw him as an opponent since she could feel she was in a pinch, and if this continued, she realized she could lose!

But how could she lose?

“Haaaa!!!”

Tiona knew Tsukasa wouldn’t give her a chance to use her magic again, but it didn’t really matter since her strong point wasn’t her magic. Instead, it was her skills!

Tiona had two skills: a berserk and a backdraft.

The berserker allowed her to raise her attack power every time she took damage. Meanwhile, the backdraft raised her power exceptionally high in a pinch.

Two skills enhanced each other, and the more damage and the more dangerous the situation was, the stronger she was!

Tiona became stronger and stronger.

However, Tsukasa’s situation became worse and worse.

“Captain…”

The employee of the arena looked at Shakti, waiting for her decision.

Shakti looked at Tsukasa with a complex expression since she just wanted to enter the arena and save him, but she had a feeling he would scold her and hate her if he did so.

This was a battle between two warriors.

The arena had become a sacred place where Tsukasa and Tiona decided the victory and the defeat!

“Let’s wait,” Shakti said after a moment of hesitation, and her decision was right since Tsukasa also grew stronger and stronger.

Tsukasa realized that his ability to learn anything was stronger than he had thought. Also, it wasn’t only limited to the skill but also an innate talent too. The first time he realized how cheating his ability to learn was when he fought against Kuraudo Kurashiki in the past. It was also the reason why he decided to save him since he had learned a Marginal Counter from him.

Tsukasa had never thought of learning a Marginal Counter before since he knew it was an innate ability when Kuraudo was born, but strangely, his body learned by itself, and he also could use the Marginal Counter too.

It was also the reason why Tsukasa could react when Tiona’s physical ability was stronger than him.

Also, not only did Tsukasa learn the Marginal Counter, but he also learned the true power of Blaze of Rito and Mikuni too.

By then, Tsukasa knew he could mostly learn everything if he wanted to, including Tiona’s magic he saw. In this fight, he had learned magic and two skills from Tiona, so during this crisis, during the time his body was full of wounds, he became stronger and stronger, breaking the limit of the peak of the human body!

However, this also wasn’t without a price since, without a doubt, as long as this battle ended, his body would be in a weak state.

Still, Tsukasa had a regenerative healing factor, so he didn’t need to worry about anything.

Before the battle, Tsukasa had made up his mind not to use the Blaze, Blazer, telekinesis, and magic, or the physical ability of the Exceed, only relying on the physical ability of the peak of the human body and other skills.

And now, he was going to show it!

The principle of his redirecting technique is similar to the principle of the lightning rod.

Once lightning hits the rod, it would either be conducted to the ground through a wire instead of passing through the structure, so the building won’t be damaged.

Tsukasa used that principle to create this technique, but then, he suddenly thought of something.

‘If I can redirect it to the ground, shouldn’t I be able to redirect it back to the opponent?’

Tsukasa thought of using his opponent’s force to defeat them. The concept was clear, but he needed a train to do that. However, he didn’t have time now since he could be defeated anytime, especially when Tiona was on full rampage mode.

Each of her strikes was similar to the feeling of being dropped by a road roller.

It was heavy, fast, and powerful.

‘I’ll let you taste your own power.’

Tiona punched her fist, but it was parried by his blade, and his other blade slashed in her direction!

Tiona raised her arm to block, but when his blade touched her, she felt a tremendous force that was several times stronger than before!

“Cough!”

Tiona coughed up blood and staggered, feeling weak.

“Sorry.”

Tsukasa took a deep breath, increasing his physical ability several times. By then, his two arms had become a blur, moving so fast that one couldn’t see.

*BOOOM!* *BOOOM!* *BOOOM!*

In the few seconds, Tsukasa had sent hundreds of attacks at Tiona’s body at the same spot and right into her body by using his vibration attack.

Tiona felt her eyes become blurry, and only his face was clear to see, but slowly, she felt tired and sleepy. She knew at that moment she had lost. She wanted to cry, but somehow, she couldn’t do it since she had just passed out.

The arena was silent, and no one said anything.

The world turned still until Tiona fell to the ground and passed out.

Tsukasa’s breath was heavy, and he just wanted to lay down. His arms from shoulders to hands had turned purple, full of wounds, and some of his bones were seen. He was full of blood, and he was so weak that he could drop his sword anytime. His clothes were a mess, leaving him with only his pants. However, he gritted his teeth and raised one of his swords high to the sky.

“Aaahhhh!!!”

Tsukasa howled at the top of his lungs, showing the winner of this battle.

*Gulp!*

On the other hand, everyone in the arena gulped and thought they wanted him to mess them up hard.
