The teenager condensed a short sword and threw it, causing it to burst like a bullet and become lodged into the burly man's thigh, pinning him to the ground. But in response, the burly man waved his hand, unleashing a wave of energy that slammed into the teenager, sending him crashing into the walls of the crater.

Both the parties were injured now, but that only served to further their fighting spirit. The burly man was a simple guy that just wished to vent his anger on the teenager.

As for the teenager, the more they fought, the more he understood that the burly man had special powers that didn't make sense when he thought about it based on the power structure of their world.

So, he wished to delve into the depths of this secret. Moreover, he had a faint inkling that he had already figured out the reason before but had forgotten it for unexpected reasons. It was just his conspiracy instinct flaring up from time to time.
