Peak of delight

When everyone was worried about him, and some of them thought Tsukasa had died, they saw him slowly stand up from his ground. His body was battered, there was a wound on his head, causing blood to cover half of his face, and his stand wasn't as firm as before.

However, even so, Tsukasa stood up, holding his katana, staring at Tiona with clear eyes like a predator that was about to eat down its prey.

Tiona had a shudder when she stared into his eyes, and she just wanted to open a room with him and do a wild thing there. Still, she was surprised to see him standing up.

However, not only Tiona but the entire audience was in awe because of his tenacity.

Still, many of them just wanted him to just step down from the arena and take care of him since they couldn't bear seeing his appearance.

If he wanted to, Tsukasa could stand up fully and fully recover his body, but he didn't really want to show his regenerative healing factor. Still, he must admit, fighting by using the peak of a human physical ability was tough. Having skilled martial arts was one thing, but sometimes in front of overwhelming power, a skill was useless.

'Magic, speed-like a bullet train, and a powerful power capable of sinking the earth...'

Tsukasa knew that if he didn't deliberately jump back and divert the force of her attack on the arena's walls, this technique wasn't perfect, so his body was slightly hurt.

'But I can develop more techniques...'

Tsukasa thought this fight could give him more inspiration, especially to fight someone whose speed, power, endurance, and everything except for skill and a sense of smell were better than him.

Still, while Tsukasa was excited to develop his technique, his battered body caused Tiona to feel sorry and regretful since she had beaten him up so mercilessly before. She even used her magic to bully him, so she wondered whether he would hate her and said, "Hey, you're powerful even if you don't receive a blessing. Once you have received a blessing, you'll become more powerful and become famous!"

"What do you want to say?" Tsukasa asked directly.

"Can you step down?" Tiona said with regret and an awkward expression.

Tsukasa, who was in a good mood, suddenly became a little gloomy. 'Is she underestimating me?' Well, he also understood the reason why Tiona wanted him to give up, but why should he?

"...You're telling me to give up? Survive and make a name? Heh..." Tsukasa stared at Tiona and asked, "You're fucking kidding me, right?"

Tiona had a shudder at this moment, and her thighs squeezed hard.

"You may be the stronger one right now, and if I ran away from you and lived a full life, I'd eventually become stronger than I am now. But the thing is...." Tsukasa smiled and firmly said, "Fighting you here will make me even stronger! I, Tsukasa Kugayama, do not turn tail and run away. If a man ain't even willing to put his life on the line, then he can't become the strongest!"

"....."

'SO COOL!!!'

The Amazoness, the goddess, and many others screamed and wanted to have his child now.

"Marry me," Tiona said without hesitation with a feverish face.

"..."

Tsukasa blinked his eyes and didn't understand how it could suddenly turn like this.

However, not only Tiona but all the people here also felt the same, especially the girls.

Demeter bit her lower lip and just wanted to bring him back to the hotel now. Also, she felt quite regretful for not inviting him to her Familia now.

"I refuse!" Tsukasa rejected.

"Why?!" Tiona cried.

"We're in a fight. How can you ask something like that?" Tsukasa knew this girl had a scatterbrain, so he didn't get angry at her reaction.

"By the way, once our fight is done, do you want to join my Familia?" Tiona suddenly asked.

"What Familia?" Tsukasa asked curiously.

"Loki Familia!" Tiona said confidently.

"Okay." Tsukasa nodded.

"Without hesitation?!" Tiona was surprised, but then she smiled and said, "Then I'll defeat you now." She had taken out her chain since she felt it was too much.

"Wait a moment," Tsukasa suddenly said.

Tiona was confused and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tsukasa looked at the audience and asked, "Can someone lend me a sword?"

Everyone was surprised by his declaration and his intention to join the Loki Familia, but then he suddenly asked someone in the audience to lend him a sword?

They were pretty curious, so someone just threw a katana at him.

"Here!"

Tsukasa looked at the man and a girl whose appearance was like someone in ancient Japan. "Thanks." He caught the sword and held two swords in his hands.

"Two swords?!"

"Is he going to fight with two swords?"

While everyone was confused, they must admit he was cool!

They just wondered why just holding two swords seemed so cool?

However, Tsukasa didn't face the blades of the swords toward Tiona. Instead, he used the blunt side of the swords.

Tiona didn't seem to notice since she had been staring at Tsukasa's face. "You're ready?"

Tsukasa only smiled and asked, "Can you dance, Tiona Hiryute?"

The two stared at each other for a moment before Tiona charged without hesitation!

As usual, there was nothing on Tiona's head, and she just thought to beat Tsukasa up!

Apart from his face, Tiona was going to beat every part of his body!

"Ora! Ora! Ora! Ora! Ora!"

Tiona sent an extremely fast barrage of punches, ready to defeat Tsukasa!

Tsukasa took a deep breath, held his breath, and redirected all the attacks that came toward him!

*BOOM!* *BOOM!* *BOOM!*

The creaking sound was sound one after another as the ground around them was destroyed.

Tsukasa could feel his bones shaking and was almost broken, but he quickly redirected the force to the ground.

On the other hand, while Tiona's attack power was destructive, she felt uncomfortable since she felt she had been hitting cotton instead of something.

Tiona kept punching, and Tsukasa kept redirecting the force behind her punches.

Everyone was in a daze, watching how this match was going to unfold.

Still, they didn't understand how Tsukasa was able to fight against Tiona.

"What's happening?" Hestia was confused.

"He's redirecting the force behind that Amazoness girl to the ground."

Hestia and the rest looked at the man with a unique hairstyle like one from ancient Japan.

"Take?" Hestia realized who this guy was.

Takemikazuchi, a god that was coming from the Far East, moved to Orario City recently.

"You know, it's like water. No matter how much you punch or move it around, it'll return to its previous state as long it is there." Takemikazuchi was amazed and said, "Right now, that Level 5 can't hurt him!"

"Then, can he defeat her?" Demeter asked.

"...It's hard." Take said after a moment of pause.

While Tsukasa could move the force behind Tiona's punches to the ground, he didn't have the means to defeat Tiona. While his sword could cause wounds and even slash her, her regeneration healed her quickly.

Also, while his technique was amazing, there was still a limit to how he was able to use that technique. After all, his stamina was far worse than Tiona, who was Level 5.

If Tiona wanted to, she could for the entire day.

However, could Tsukasa do that?

Unless Tsukasa dared to slash Tiona's half, he would have won, but from what Take saw, it was impossible.

The two kept fighting with each other.

No-one stopped, and they kept charging against each other.

"Aaaah!!!"

Tiona's figure was like a raging river that destroyed everything.

On the other hand, Tsukasa's figure was like a single, firm rock that stood in the middle of the river. However, slowly it would turn into a single boat that would be wiped out by the tsunami.

While some of them were worried, some of them were excited.

However, it had nothing to do with Tsukasa and Tiona. On the contrary, the two were smiling at each other, fighting each other, releasing everything against each other!

They were at their climax, and they were about to reach their peak together.

However, Tsukasa knew if this continued, he would be the loser. Even if he could redirect the force of her attacks to the ground, it didn't mean the damage on his body disappeared since he hadn't perfected this technique, and the difference in their physical ability was too much.

Still, could he give up easily?

His eyes gleamed into a black light, and he was ready to defeat Tiona now.
