Current timescale of events:
July 17, 2071
Rebecca:
(You bastard.)
"In response to Rufus' sneak attack, Rebecca attempts to land a punch imbued with void energy against Rufus, aiming for his head."
"Except that he stops her by blocking her fist with his right hand, also imbued with void energy, pushing Rebecca forward by pushing her with his hand."
"Rebecca barely had time to get up when Rufus approached her."
Rufus:
"He rushed again, this time towards Rebecca, delivering a series of blows to her upper body which Rebecca managed to take by maintaining a defensive posture with her arms positioned in a cross."
"Except for one blow which hits he a little above her chest."
Rebecca:
Gh!
(He really hits like a nag.)
"He then kicks her with his right foot, towards his left shoulder."
"During this short time, Rebecca, just in time, manages to block the blow with her left arm, then very quickly, Rufus punches Rebecca in the stomach, too distracted to react in time."
Rebecca:
Gah!
"Rebecca bows her head because of the pain."
"Rufus then grabs Rebecca's head by the hair and then hits her by kneeing her against the head, which makes Rebecca fall back."
"The force of the blow immediately makes Rebecca's nose bleed."
Aaaah!
"Meanwhile , Edward stood up to try to get closer to Rufus, except that his pain forced him to approach him at a slow speed at first, before going faster as the pain decrease."
Edward:
"Victim of his helplessness at the moment, he cannot help but bring out all his anger while he tries to run towards Rufus."
Get away from her, you monster!
"Without even paying attention to Edward, Rufus didn't stop there."
"He ended up grabbing Rebecca's head from her face, as she continued to wobble in place, completely losing her balance."
"To then crush him violently against the ground."
Rebecca:
Aaaah!!!
"Continuing to bleed from her nose and taking the impact against the ground, the back of Rebecca's head soaks the ground with blood, leaving a large mark behind her head."
"After Rufus crushed her to the ground, Rebecca felt terrible from the damage she had suffered, her eyes unambiguously showed how close she was to passing out."
"She herself felt that she must remain conscious no matter what, while her vision was gradually blurring."
Rebecca:
(It hurts like hell!
I can no longer even scream in pain, my body no longer responds to me.
I have to get up or he will kill me.)
"Edward, behind Rufus, rushes towards him and tries to land a powerful vertical kick while Rufus remains with his head down, looking at Rebecca."
"Rufus takes the kick head on, causing his head to snap up from the recoil."
"Before in a matter of moments, he straightened her normally and stood up straight, turning his gaze to Edward."
Rufus:
Nice shot.
Too bad he lacked experience, I barely felt him because of that.
Edward:
(Uh?)
"Edward couldn't believe his eyes, he had put all his strength into this kick, yet Rufus seemed to have taken no damage."
Rufus:
Well what?
Did you seriously think you could hurt me?
Weren't you taught to use void energy when making attacks, kid?
Rebecca:
(This situation is not tenable, none of us will survive if this monster decides to kill us quickly, both at the same time.
I know very well how Edward will react if I say that, but I have no choice.
Even if it means dying, as long as one of us can live.)
"Rebecca turns her head towards Edward, holding all the pain she feels in her mind so as not to scream."
Edward, run away from here and abandon me, it's the only solution!
I'll try to slow it down as best I can!
Rufus:
Hey, no one asked for you to speak.
"Rufus suddenly kicks Rebecca violently in the face, after this blow, she immediately loses consciousness."
We haven't taught you enough to shut up it seems, I do you the honor of not killing you quickly and that's how you thank me, by speaking like weaklings.
I'm was too lenient with you, I should have realized that sooner.
Edward:
Rebecca!
Rufus:
Why are you all shouting like this today?
I think I was wrong when I decided inwardly that because you are still children, it would be better to kill you slowly to give you the chance to stay alive a little longer.
Forget it, you're just like everyone else, annoying people who constantly break my ears, when someone close to them dies.
What selfishness, not even concealed, you don't think about my poor ears who have to endure this.
"Rufus begins to laugh maliciously."
Ah ah ah ah!
Edward:
"Edward feels a black anger boiling inside him towards Rufus, ready to pounce on him at any moment and kill him."
You bastard, I'll make you pay for what you did to him by killing yourself in the cruelest way possible!!
Rufus:
Oh ho, what have we got here?
Wouldn't that be...
"Rufus moves much faster than before, advancing towards Edward, punching him in the face."… a smooth talker?
"Edward is thrown 1 meter further, falling violently to the ground."
I see that you have partially strengthened your body to use void energy, unfortunately it is still not enough, I surpass you in terms of speed and punching power.
Yet you struggle like insects to survive, dying to have my head.
Instead of thinking, face the truth, you don't have the slightest chance of beating me.
You fight again and again, it's quite a fun spectacle to see, it's true, but it's a bit repetitive, let's change things a bit, to spice up this game.
Come, give everything you have in one last attack so that I can remember you as hunting trophies more fun than the rest.
Edward:
"Lying on the ground, his nose bleeding and his right eye completely closed, Edward is in extremely bad shape after the punch he received."
(How is it possible to be that strong?
Not only am I not able to see his movements, but on top of that, with just two hits, he managed to put me in this state.
What's the point of having trained my void handling if in the end, it doesn't allow me to beat it or just slow it down?)
"A memory resurfaced in his mind when he had all these thoughts."
