Before anyone could say a word they punched each other in the faces. Neither moved so they did it again and Evgeni had a green aura around his body that absorbed all the damage from Daniel's attacks and sent the damage back to him.
Daniel was sent flying a couple of meters backward. When he landed and looked at Evgeni he saw his shadow but not Evgeni. Evgeni was behind him and tapped him on the shoulder, speaking up mockingly.
"Your eyes aren't lying, they're just too slow. You want to protect something but just sheer will won't do anything. If you're weak how do you expect to protect anyone? You can't even protect yourself but you keep pushing yourself into helping others. It's pointless. The thing that has saved humanity till now is egoism. You lack it. You're not ready for the world then."
Daniel was standing in the same place quietly. Evgeni was kind of right. Daniel wasn't special. He wasn't a genius like one in a million, nor was he born with genetics that can make him a champion.
All he had was Nathaniel. Yet he did have a bit of egoism. He pushes Nathaniel away because Daniel wants to make a name for himself. But if everyone were egoistic the cities wouldn't have been created.
The countries would have never existed. It would've been pure madness. Then Daniel and Evgeni were transported to Nathaniel's void dimension. Evgeni grinned.
"So we meet again, demon?"
He said, mockingly.
"You were scarier a day ago before you struggled against a child," Nathaniel replied, uninterested.
"So, what is this place?" Evgeni asked curiously.
"I shouldn't tell you but because I know Daniel will beat you to a pulp afterward I guess I will tell you.'" Said Nathaniel while glancing at Daniel.
Daniel who was on the ground between both looked at Nathaniel with a bit of teary eyes. Nathaniel continued speaking.
"This is a higher dimension that transcends the concept of existence, destruction, and time itself. Shortly, only people who can look at least 5 dimensions higher than yours can see here. People who can look at least 10 dimensions here can make physical touch with me. I was quite confused when you saw me yesterday bu-"
Nathaniel was cut off by Evgeni who touched him on the shoulder, disrespectfully.
"Well, what if I just kill you too, here?" He said, playing with his nerves.
Nathaniel glared at him and mumbled, "Daniel, kill him."
Before both were transported back to the real world. Evgeni sighed before pulling a cigarette out of his pocket.
"Well now that I think about it, I'll just sell your organs, kiddo. Just wait until I'm done smoking, aight?"
Daniel created the black katana that cut Evgeni's cigarette in half with its presence. Then he turned around, cutting him in half.
Evgeni fell down, shocked. He looked at Daniel, trying to comprehend what exactly just happened. Then he started laughing.
"The concept of death doesn't exist for me."
He said before the body got itself back together. Daniel didn't even bother to be scared. He had that dark grimace on his face.
"I can heal forever, I can't die because I can "play again", and I am the main character in this world. When did you see the main character in a novel or manga die? THE ONLY REASON WHY I AM SO STRONG IS BECAUSE OF YOU! EARLIER I RECEIVED OVER 5 NEW ABILITIES! Yes..when we both became stronger I grew. No matter what happens, I'll always grow..."
Evgeni explained but Daniel just kneed him in the face and cut his head off. He started slashing, stabbing, and punching Evgeni until he was turned into flesh and blood on the ground.
He turned around, walking towards the afraid people, trying to calm them down but suddenly he felt massive pain in his chest. He looked down, seeing a hand piercing his chest together with his heart.
He looked through his shoulder. Evgeni was there with an irritated face.
"Hey kid, you don't understand, do you? I am IMMORTAL! There is nothing greater than that!" He said annoyed at how Daniel kept ignoring him.
Daniel walked out of the hand piercing him, regenerating for seconds, and then pulled out his phone and called someone. He put his phone against his ears and spoke.
"Mister Michael, in the staff room in the hotel is a secret entrance. I made sure it was easily detectable. Go in the tunnel that it leads to. I'll wait for you at the end...Evgeni? He'll be captured by the time you're here. Thank you."
And he hung up. Evgeni's eyes widened in anger and he rushed at Daniel who turned around, punching him in the face and sending him flying through the already destroyed city. Evgeni stood up, using his spy ability to see through everything.
He could see Michael in his car from across Varna. He could see Daniel from across the fake-built city.
While on the other side, Daniel was waiting for something to happen. Then he noticed something. In certain lines, all buildings have massive holes through them. Then the building right in front of him had a massive hole.
He was confused, about where it came from as he didn't notice anything that hit it. Then he saw something in front of him. A pair of shoes.
Evgeni kicked him in the face, a massive "bang" being heard from the impact. Daniel flew backwards but it was fine. He caught himself in balance and he felt it again. He broke his limits, becoming stronger.
Evgeni who felt twice as powerful too giggled, staring at empty space.
"Reality Destruction..."
He said as he looked at his fist that started emitting black mist. Daniel created the black katana again and gripped it tightly. They locked eyes.
Dennis walked through the massive door, covered in blood with wet eyes.
"EVGENI DON'T!"
He shouted as the 2 monsters rushed at each other yet again.
EVGENI'S PERSPECTIVE:
I was always a loser. Being lonely was easy. I was born physically weaker and my condition couldn't be helped. The path someone lonely walks through isn't easy. Parents always think that if you share with them everything will be alright.
But it's a lie. They legally can't do anything against bullies and harassment. This is the world we live in. Harsh. The people with connections and money can avoid anything. It doesn't matter what we do.
Even when I had my only friends I still felt bad because they were just a bigger target because of me. I was holding them back.

[TIME: 03:04 PM]
Dennis and Zlatan looked at me.
"You okay dude, you've been staring at the wall for a bit too much. You wanna go home?" Dennis said, worried about me.
I finally snapped back into reality. I was thinking about life if I was stronger.
"Yeah, sorry. I was just thinking about Beatris, you know?" I said, trying to cover up myself.
"You're being such a simp. Thinking about a person you won't meet for 2 more months is completely stupid. Think about the present. Forget about the past and don't be afraid of the future. Embrace the present before the future that you were worried about ruins you as a person." Zlatan said, irritated at me for bringing up something I always do.
---TO BE CONTINUE---
Short chapter again, I've been apologizing a bit too much instead of working harder. But I have to apologize again. My current health isn't at my best. I couldn't even go to school and I slept over 13 hours. I really apologize!
