I stepped up to the battle, there was no turning back any longer.
Adrian wanted it like that and so I had to fight him.
But before the battle started, I tried something new.
A way to fight I had never given a shot before.
A technique I had been told about by my father.
Intimidation.
Basically using celestial energy to make your opponent fear you and make them surrender this way.
Maybe that alone could satisfy Adrian's lust for battle, without exposing me too much.
I gave it a try.
And apparently it worked.
Better than expected.
Noticeable drops of sweat could be seen on Adrian's forehead.
But not his alone.
The referee clearly got the same feeling.
And for some reason, I myself felt weaker and weaker.
Like all my energy was drained of me constantly.
At a speed I had never experienced before.
I tried to stop the technique.
But I couldn't
