CHAPTER 14
Akito and Yuzu exchanged a quick glance, their determination only grew stronger as they readied their stance.
"Let's do this!" Yuzu shouted as she charged toward Sang-Hyun, her movements were swift and precise.
"Wait!-" Akito tried to stop Yuzu but she was full of aggressive determination, so he stood still.
Akito's heart pounded as he watched the two fighters clash. He could feel the intensity of their movements in the very air around him. Yuzu's fierce attacks were relentless, but Sang-Hyun was like a calm, collected predator, dodging and weaving with ease.
"They're.. so fast!" Yamamura Akito was frightened and a little amazed by their skills, they were so fast. something beyond human.
"You'll have to do better than that," Sang-Hyun taunted, his movements fluid and precise as he dodged Yuzu's attack. In a swift motion, he shoved Yuzu away and delivered a powerful Double Kick to her face.
"Oh... Christ.. that looks so brutal!" one of the employees whispered, cringing at the sight of Yuzu's injuries. The room fell silent as everyone watched in shock and horror, unsure of what would happen next.
Yuzu stumbled back, her vision blurry and distorted. She struggled to keep her balance as she clutched her face in pain.
"Gahh... damn it," she groaned, wiping the blood from her nose. "You're not getting away with that."
"I'm not going down that easily!" Yuzu yelled as she lunged at Sang-Hyun, her fists raised high.
Akito watched in shock as Yuzu charged back at Sang-Hyun with renewed ferocity. He could see the rage burning in her eyes, her Taekwondo training on full display.
"She's so.. pissed." Akito thought to himself as he watched Yuzu, her fighting spirit spiked to the highest point and unleashed a furious beast inside her.
Yuzu yelled furiously as she swung her fists and legs at Sang-Hyun,
but Sang-Hyun was more than prepared for her onslaught, blocking and dodging her attacks with ease.
"fight back, you coward!" Yuzu yelled as she backed away to a distance to get some stamina
Sang-Hyun smirked, impressed by Yuzu's condition "I like that nature," he said. "But first.. let me show you what this coward is capable of."
he suddenly disappeared startling Yuzu. She frantically looked around, trying to locate her opponent. Her heart was pounding loudly in her chest as her eyes darted back and forth.
"Huh?! Wh-where did he-," Yuzu began to speak, but was quickly interrupted by Akito's warning.
"Yuzu, behind you!" he yelled urgently.
Yuzu quickly spun around, but it was too late. Sang-Hyun was already lunging toward her, his fist aimed directly at her head.
everything seemed to slow down for Yuzu, she couldn't move. all she could do was watch as the fist slowly close in on her face
Yuzu's heart raced as she realized she was frozen in place. She tried to move, to dodge the incoming attack, but her body refused to obey her commands.
As she watched in horror, Sang-Hyun's fist slowly closed in on her face, his knuckles white with anticipation.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still.
"All that hard work, just to end up being crushed by the weight of reality... how pathetic of me," Yuzu muttered to herself, her voice filled with defeat.
She let out a deep sigh as she realized there was no use fighting anymore. "I might as well accept my fate," she said, her tone resigned and hopeless.
Suddenly, there was a loud thud, and Sang-Hyun's hand was no longer inches from her face. Yuzu opened her eyes to see Akito standing in front of her, his hands raised in a defensive stance.
"Wow, that newbie is a hero!" one of the employees shouted, impressed by Akito's bravery.
Yuzu was in shock, she couldn't believe what had just happened. "Holy shit," she thought to herself, her eyes wide with disbelief.
The force of the impact reverberated through Akito's arms, but he remained resolute, his eyes locked onto Sang-Hyun's.
Sang-Hyun struggled against Akito's grip, his muscles bulging as he attempted to break free.
"H-Hey.. you're gripping my fists too tight!" Sang-Hyun said as he tried to break free
But Akito held firm, his fingers digging into Sang-Hyun's flesh as he prevented him from landing the devastating blow on Yuzu.
Akito stood between Sang-Hyun and Yuzu, his eyes locked onto his opponent.
"I'm sorry that I couldn't join our duo, I was trying to figure something out," he said, his voice firm and determined. "Go, let me handle this."
Akito stood between Sang-Hyun and Yuzu, his eyes locked onto his opponent. "I'm sorry that I couldn't join our duo, I was trying to figure something out," he said, his voice firm and determined. "Go, let me handle this."
Yuzu looked at Akito, her eyes filled with admiration and respect. "You got this, Newbie," she said with a confident smile.
She wiped the blood off her nose, and then swiftly left the area, leaving Akito to face Sang-Hyun alone.
Sang-Hyun towered over Akito, his eyes narrowed with disdain. The two men were locked in a fierce standoff, their fists clenched tightly at their sides. Sweat dripped down Akito's forehead, his heart pounding in his chest. He knew that he was about to face off against one of the most powerful men in the company, but he refused to back down.
With a wicked grin, Sang-Hyun taunted Akito, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Oh, looks like the little brave boy is going to face me alone? How sweet." He flexed his muscles, his veins bulging with anger. "But I'm warning you, kid. I don't play nice."
Akito gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with determination. "Hell yeah, this is going to be exciting." Without warning, he lunged forward and headbutted Sang-Hyun with all his might. he stumbled backward, his face twisted in pain.
"Gah! That hurt you little shit..." Sang-Hyun growled, rubbing his forehead. He narrowed his eyes at Akito, who was already preparing for his next move. The air was thick with tension, and the other employees had stopped fighting to watch the two men face off.
Akito and Sang-Hyun faced each other, both of them in their fighting stances. The employees watched in excitement as the two of them were about to start their showdown.
"Think fast!" Akito yelled as he ran toward Sang-Hyun
launching a quick roundhouse kick toward Sang-Hyun's head. Sang-Hyun swiftly dodged it, taking a step back before countering with a punch to Akito's stomach.
Sang-Hyun was forced to backpedal as Akito relentlessly attacked him with his Taekwondo strikes.
However, Sang-Hyun was no slouch himself, and he soon found an opening to counter. As Akito threw a high kick, Sang-Hyun caught his leg and twisted it, causing Akito to lose his balance and fall to the ground.
Akito quickly rolled back to his feet, but Sang-Hyun was already on him, delivering a barrage of punches and kicks. Akito blocked most of them, but a few landed on his body, causing him to grunt in pain.
"You're pretty aggressive today Akito," Sang-Hyun said with a smirk. "you're being too reckless. You need to learn how to be more defensive."
"I don't care, I'm not gonna hold back this time," Akito responded
Akito gritted his teeth and launched another attack, this time with a spinning back kick.
Sang-Hyun saw it coming and sidestepped, grabbing Akito's leg and pulling him towards him. Before Akito could react, Sang-Hyun delivered a powerful uppercut to his chin, sending him flying backward.
The employees cheered as Akito crashed into a nearby table, sending it flying. But Akito wasn't out yet. He slowly got up, his eyes burning with determination.
"You're not gonna beat me that easily," Akito said with a grin. "I still have some tricks up my sleeve."
