Thomas heard the bell ring as he walked outside of the ring towards Lily and Scarlett as he mumbled "That punch to the gut really fricken hurt." Lily and Scarlett rushed over to Thomas as Scarlett said "Allow me to heal you." Thomas stared at her as he asked "What for?" Scarlett pointed to his stomach as she said "He hit you." Thomas stared at her confused as he said "But it wasn't even a cut." Scarlett held her hands on Thomas's stomach as she began to use her healing spell. Thomas stared at her as he mumbled "This surprisingly gets rid of the pain." As Scarlett healed Thomas Toby walked by as he said "You better not lose your next fight I'm looking forward to fighting you." Thomas stared at him as he said "I'm more worried about you losing to that other guy before I get the chance to beat you." Toby continued to walk towards the arena as he said "Wish me luck." Thomas turned around and sat down as he said "This outta be good."
Once the bell rung the dog man charged at Toby as Thomas said "He's doing the exact opposite of what he did last time." As the dog man ran at Toby Thomas mumbled "If Toby doesn't do something fast he'll probably lose this." As the dog man ran up to Toby he swung at him and missed as Toby began to punch back the dog man jumped over him. As the dog man landed behind Toby he turned around and swung again as he missed the dog man once more. As Toby missed the dog man punched Toby in his stomach as he laughed and said "If the hero is this slow we might as well just let the demon lord kill us all." Toby looked at the dog man as he punched him back in his stomach as he said "An eye for an eye." Thomas stared at them as he said "Why is everyone getting hit in the stomach?" Lily and Scarlett stared at him as Scarlett said "Yes, it's very strange." Thomas looked back at Toby as he saw him being pummeled by the dog man. As Thomas watched Toby he began to pray as Thomas asked "What's he doing?"
Lily looked at Thomas as she said "He's using a blessing." Thomas looked at her as he asked "And what does that mean?" Lily stared at Toby and pointed as she said "A prayer is like a special type of spell that doesn't require mana but can still be used to improve speed and strength." Thomas stared at him as he said "He didn't use that before." The dog man began to back up as Toby stared at him as he stood up. Once Toby stood up completely he lunged at the dog man as he was now two times faster than he previously was. As Toby approached the dog man he yelled "Now we will fight on equal terms." As Toby neared the dog man he started to punch as he hit the dog man in the face and sent him tumbling out of the arena. Thomas yawned as he stood up and mumbled "Why can't we just get to the main event already." Thomas walked towards the arena as the large man stood there waiting as he said "This time I won't be holding back."
Thomas stared at him as he asked "Do we really have to do this?" As the bell rung, the man began to charge at him as he yelled "We gonna have to unless you forfeit!" Thomas scratched the top of his head as he shrugged and said "Suit yourself." Thomas began to walk towards him as he said "I'm kinda bored so I'll let you entertain me for a while." The man went to punch Thomas as he yelled "Entertain you?" Thomas dodged the punch as he said "I've already beaten you so unless your gonna enhance your strength you might as well get lost." The man stared at Thomas as he yelled "Let there be strength!" Thomas stared at him as he asked "Are you able to activate the spell more than once?" The man stared at Thomas as he yelled "I can if you have a death wish." Thomas stared at him as he began to walk around him as he said "At any rate, you'll need to be three times stronger."
The man stared at Thomas as he began to say "Let there be strength." After the man said it another two times he pointed to Thomas and said "Now I'll be able to crush you." Thomas stared at him as he asked "Can't you boost it anymore?" The man stared at Thomas as he asked "What aren't you satisfied?" Thomas shrugged as he pointed at him and said "You said you weren't gonna hold back so I want you at full power." The man smiled as he said, "You really wanna die that badly?" The man started to chant the words over and over again as he chanted it another seven times. Thomas stared at him as he asked "Is your limit ten?" The man stared at Thomas as he shouted "This is as strong as I can get as of now so you better get ready to fight!" Thomas started to walk up to the man as he said "You May have gotten more than three times powerful but don't forget I only said you'd have to be three times stronger to entertain me."
The man began to swing at Thomas as he yelled "You cocky little." As the man swung Thomas teleported behind him as he said, "You may hit harder than before but your not fast enough." Thomas turned around to face him as he asked "You wouldn't happen to be able to improve your speed would you?" The man turned around and swung at Thomas as he yelled "Stop toying with me!" Thomas ducked under the punch as he asked "Do you at least have a spell of some sort that slows your opponent?" The man-made two fists as he put them above his head and swung down at the ground as he yelled "Shut up!" As he hit the ground it creates a giant hole as Thomas stared at him and said "If you destroy the arena how do you expect us to finish this?" The man began to swing at Thomas some more as he yelled "Why can't I beat you?" Thomas continued to dodge him as he said "I dunno, but your wasting my time so do you just wanna finish this?"
The man raised his hands once more as Thomas stared at him and said "That didn't work last time." As the man hit the ground Thomas lost his balance as the man charged at Thomas and hit him with an uppercut to the jaw. As Thomas took the punch he was sent flying into the sky as he held his jaw and mumbled "Holy hell that hurt." As he looked down he saw the ground approaching him quickly as he said "If I keep falling where I am now I'll be out of the tournament." Thomas closed his eyes as he said "When in doubt be somewhere else." As he reopened his eyes he found himself back in the arena as he stood there staring at the man. As Thomas took his hands off his jaw Lily and Scarlett shouted "Your jaw is bleeding!" Thomas rubbed his jaw and looked at the blood as he said "You know that hurt?" Thomas stared at him as he shrugged and said "I suppose that was a good shot." Thomas began to walk towards the man as he said "Although I'm not exactly taking this seriously I suppose I can take this somewhat seriously just this once."
Thomas continued to walk towards him as he smiled and said "Let's finish this." The man began to charge at Thomas as he shouted "Why won't you lose?" As Thomas stopped moving the man began to swing repeatedly as Thomas dodged each hit with ease. Thomas stared at the man as he said "All of this is pointless." Thomas grabbed the man's hands and then pulled him closer as he head-butted him as he yelled "This one is for Scarlett!" As Thomas let go of him he fell to the ground completely unconscious as Thomas said, "I tried to spare you some pain but I guess you'd rather try and fail than never try at all." As the bell rang, Toby ran up to Thomas as he said "Let Scarlett heal you I want to fight you at your best." Thomas stared at him as he said "Then you should get healed too." Toby stared at Thomas as he said "I've already talked to the people hosting the tournament and they're fine as long as both sides agree to it." Thomas shrugged as he said, "I guess we should each get healed and then get this show on the road."
