As much as I wanted to meet my uncle right now, the next fight was something I absolutely could not lose. Wakatsuki had a technique that I vaguely remembered, but I knew it was extremely powerful. Knowing that I would be facing Kuroki in the third round, I couldn't just ignore the chance to learn such a technique.
Besides, I wanted to see up close the fight between two monsters like Wakatsuki and Julius. On one side, a man with 52 times more density in his muscles than a normal person, and on the other, a man who took a deadly amount of steroids, and became the one with the most powerful muscles on the planet, even giving people like Biscuit Oliva a run for their gold.
For sure, the fight between these two would be among the best of the tournament, at least on my personal list.
"It seems that you are interested in the next fight."
As I had my attention on the arena, a voice suddenly sounded beside me, causing me to turn to see Hatsumi Sen with her arms crossed.
"Well, it's not often that you get to see a struggle between two forces of nature." I simply replied.
"Heh... I agree. In fact, I made a good buck off your fight."
I was silent for a moment, an interesting idea arising in my mind.
"Oh? Then how about you thank me for that with a quick workout?"
He didn't answer, his face taking on a disinterested expression as he simply shrugged.
"I'm lazy."
I sighed. Hatsumi was a frustrating person to deal with.
[Representing the pharmaceutical company Furumi, he has an unmatched record in Kengan fights! With only 2 losses and an incredible 307 wins, you know him already! The "Wild Tiger," Wakatsuki Takeshi!]
My attention immediately turned to the arena, where Takeshi entered right after his presentation.
In the first round, I really didn't care about the other fighters other than the ones I would eventually be facing. My bad, since even in the first few fights, there were some techniques that would certainly be useful. Also, I didn't care much about [Observe] the statuses of the fighters, which wasn't really a problem since I could measure strength through their auras, but seeing their attributes through the system gave me a great sense of their strengths and weaknesses.
And damn... Wakatsuki was a monster.
[Status]
Name: Wakatsuki Takeshi
Age: 40
Strength: AX+++
Durability: AX++
Stamina: XX+++
Speed: XX+++
Intelligence: X
Potential: XXX
.
He certainly had one of the best attributes in the tournament. I would love to have the chance to face him.
[Representing Tokyo Electric Power, he has yet to get a chance to show the strength of his mighty muscles! With 54 wins and 0 losses, "The Beast", Julius Reinhold!]
Julius also entered the arena, immediately placing himself in front of Wakatsuki. A powerful pressure emanated from the two fighters, each making it clear how strong they were just by their presence.
Even though I had already faced Julius, I knew that our quick contest was not enough to make him show the full extent of his strength. Moreover, I had only come out without much damage because I was able to manipulate his power flow, and still suffered a fracture in my hand. Fortunately, it was nothing that my regeneration was not able to handle.
[Status]
Name: Julius Reinhold
Age: 36
Strength: AX+++
Durability: AXX
Stamina: XX
Speed: X++
Intelligence: X++
Potential: XX
.
I wasn't surprised to see that the strength of both was evenly matched, with Julius surpassing him only in durability. Just based on the attributes of the two, I would say that Wakatsuki would win, for being superior in speed, stamina and intelligence, attributes that made all the difference in the fight.
Still, it was impressive that Julius had such high intelligence, considering that he was someone who relied only on physical strength, and despised martial arts.
"They are quite excited." Hatsumi commented, causing me to nod in agreement.
"It will be a great fight." I spoke with sincerity.
"So..." Hatsumi seems to hesitate to say, which made me strange about this sudden attitude. "Which one would you bet on?"
"..."
"Surely in the one who will win."
Hatsumi was discouraged by my response, letting a sigh escape as he sat down.
It is not my fault that he refused to train with me.

____Elena Pov____
I don't know what to do.
It has been two years since I met Yuji, and since then, I have only grown to like him more and more. I've accepted that I like him a lot, and I've even received support from my brother, who often tells me to go ahead and declare myself.
But it was easier said than done. I feel comfortable with Yuji, but whenever I tried to bring up the subject, shame took over my actions.
It's frustrating, and knowing that he and Senju had already shared a kiss only made things even worse.
Still, Senju kept supporting me, saying that I should declare myself to him as soon as possible. It was strange... What girl would want another girl to propose to the person they both like?
This situation made me indecisive, since knowing Senju's feelings, I felt bad thinking about declaring myself to Yuji, but on the other hand, she herself was encouraging me to do so.
Sighing, I turned my attention back to my brother, who was sleeping peacefully. I smiled at this, my eyes moving to the monitors that indicated his vital signs, before returning to his face.
If Mokichi saw me in that situation, he would definitely say something like, "What are you waiting for? Go before you miss your chance." With an expression that would clearly go against his words.
I sighed, my smile fading.
Brother... What should I do?
