Sway, rising once more, found his
limbs even heavier than before as he charged at Ace and Kyz.
Ace scoffed, "Unless you can miraculously boost your strength, you don't stand a chance. Stop embarrassing yourself."
With a swift strike to the bottom of Sway's jaw, Ace knocked him out cold, sending him across the room.
Ace declared, "With that waste of space out of the way, let's get down to business," and lunged at Kyz. This time, Kyz, more cautious, blocked strikes only when necessary. Despite his efforts, the constant onslaught of hammer strikes and kicks gradually wore him down. Seizing Ace, Kyz exclaimed, "EXPEL!" – sending Ace crashing into the arena walls, causing small bits of debris to fall.
As Ace stood once more, the relentless assault continued. Each time, Kyz repelled him, but the cycle of damage persisted. Eventually, as Kyz attempted to grab Ace, his arm remained stuck at his side. Ace capitalized, tapping him with the sledgehammer, bringing Kyz to his knees.
Ace smirked, "Come on, stand up. It's no fun if you just stay on the floor doing nothing."
Kyz realized that each absorbed attack made him heavier, culminating in his struggle to stand.
Smiling, Ace raised his hammer, striking Kyz repeatedly until he soared across the arena.
Ace grinned, "Damn, my back hurts," as he sat down, turning his attention to the ongoing fight between Plotify, Clixzu, and Omixify.
The battle intensified as Plotify, having recovered, assumed the offensive. Clixzu ridiculed, "You two are imbeciles. I can't believe you haven't figured it out. If I were you, I would've already beaten me by now."
Annoyed, Plotify retorted, "Stop yapping, damn it."
Omixify charges towards Clixzu, delivering a flurry of strikes that phase through him. Plotify, recognising a pattern, each time Clixzu struck someone he would be physical. Clixzu aiming a punch at Plotify's head, anticipating it, Plotify allowed the punch to land. In return, he launched a powerful uppercut, slicing the top of Clixzu's neck.
Clixzu screamed, "Damn you, that hurt."
Omixify, realizing the strategy, targeted the most significant threat: Plotify. He executed critical hits, striking Plotify in the neck, temple and inner thigh, causing Plotify to be sent sprawling across the arena.
As Omixify turned towards Clixzu, the latter, underestimating Omixify's understanding of his technique, attempted a kick. Omixify, seizing the opportunity, struck Clixzu's chest, causing sharp pain in his heart. Overwhelmed, Clixzu passed out, unable to endure the combined impact and critical hit.
Believing himself victorious, Omixify raised his arms in triumph.
In the distance, a voice murmured, "Damn, two fights in a row. I really am not as strong as I thought I was."
Plotify, positioned stealthily behind Omixify, felt the surge of his ego forming at his fingertips. "What's your name? Omixify, right? Run-"
Swiftly, Plotify teleported in front of Omixify, executing a precise strike at his chest, slicing from shoulder to waist. Omixify's agonizing scream echoed in the arena. Plotify, now teleporting around Omixify with escalating speed, left a trail of small cuts all over his body, concluding with a stern command,
"I told you to run."
Plotify slices the backs of Omixify's knees, causing him to collapse to the ground. Seizing the opportunity, Plotify strikes Omixify on the chin, rendering him unconscious almost instantly. Plotify then settled down, remarking to himself,
"Almost ran out of ego."
As Plotify collapsed gracefully next to the defeated Omixify.
