Amendonin stood firm, his armor gleaming after the clash with the elven leader. With a look of disdain, he watched Gustavo approach with determined steps. Before he could act, Amendonin's three remaining henchmen appeared, angry and ready to confront anyone who came near.
Henchman 1 (irritated, pointing at Gustavo and the others): "Is this a joke? Are we really facing kids? What a waste of time!"
Henchman 2 (with contempt): "You have no idea who you're dealing with. Don't be fooled, we won't show any mercy!"
Isadora (arrogant, stepping forward and taunting): "Do you really think you can underestimate us like that? Let's see if you're as tough as you say. Come at us if you have the guts!"
Bia (with a mischievous smile, excited and gearing up for combat): "That's right, Isa! Let's show these idiots what real fighting looks like. I want to see if they can take it!"
Without hesitation, Isadora and Bia charged at the three henchmen, attacking with speed and strength. Isadora, with her unwavering confidence, exchanged blows with one of the henchmen while Bia used her agility to confuse the other two and deliver electric shocks.
Zeki, observing from atop a building, noticed there was no one left to face. True to his calm and analytical nature, he chose to watch his friends' fight while reflecting on the situation.
Zeki (thoughtful, but showing no emotion): "So, this is it... They're having fun. I'd better watch and make sure nothing gets out of control."
Meanwhile, Gustavo was face-to-face with Amendonin, who regarded him with a mix of curiosity and disdain.
Amendonin (raising an eyebrow, intrigued): "You, kid... Why are you helping these elves? It doesn't make sense. What do you gain from this?"
Gustavo (arrogant, with a defiant smile): "Me? I do what I want. And right now, I want to punch your face! It doesn't matter if you're elves, humans, or anything else. I fight for the people I choose to protect!"
Zeki, still watching from a distance, was curious about Gustavo's determination. He knew Gustavo liked to fight, but he was interested in discovering this new ability Gustavo had mentioned earlier.
Amendonin (with a cynical smile, raising his axe): "Protecting them? How noble... and so naive. But if that's what you want, then come! Show me what you've got, kid."
Gustavo (preparing to attack, with a gleam in his eyes): "Oh, I will! You're going to regret underestimating us."
As Amendonin and Gustavo faced off, ready for the next clash, Isadora and Bia continued their fierce battle against the henchmen. Isadora's provocations had inflamed the enemies, making the fight more intense and exciting.
Zeki, always calm and cold, kept his watchful gaze on everything, ready to intervene if necessary. The chaos of the battle continued to escalate, and the tension in the air grew with each moment. The fight was far from over, and the true intentions of everyone were yet to be revealed.
Gustavo charged at Amendonin, his fists energized and increasing in size, glowing with intense energy.
Gustavo (arrogant and determined): "I'm going to crush you, old man! Don't underestimate a real kid!"
Amendonin blocked the blows with his armor, which began to show small cracks. But despite Gustavo's strength, Amendonin remained firm, with a confused and slightly irritated look.
Amendonin (confused and dismissive): "Why the hell are you kids fighting alongside these elves? You have nothing to do with this, kid!"
Gustavo (challenging, between strikes): "I fight for whoever I want, old man! I don't owe you any explanations!"
Amendonin narrowed his eyes, beginning to understand that there was more to the story, but he was still not convinced.
Meanwhile, Zeki watched the fight from afar, his expression calm and unshaken, but his thoughts racing.
Zeki (thinking, cold and analytical): "When is he going to use that new ability he mentioned? Raw strength won't work against Amendonin... He needs to think better."
Amendonin laughed and, with a swift motion, delivered a powerful blow with his axe, which Gustavo barely managed to dodge.
Amendonin (with disdain): "You've got strength, kid, but you're no match for me. Go back to the playground before you really get hurt."
Gustavo smiled back, even more determined.
Gustavo (arrogant): "I'm not just anyone, and you'll learn that the hard way."
Zeki, still observing, let out a slight sigh.
Zeki (thinking): "If he doesn't use that new ability soon, he's going to end up putting himself in unnecessary danger."
The fight continued, and the tension in the air grew as Gustavo tried to find an opening to show that he wasn't just there to play around.
Amendonin watched Gustavo with disdain, seeing the young fighter bleeding and struggling to stay on his feet. A cruel smile formed on the lips of the criminal leader.
Amendonin (sneering): "Is that all you've got, kid? You're nothing more than a broken toy now."
Despite the blood streaming down his face, Gustavo didn't back down. He felt a rising fury within him, something he knew he needed to unleash. With a roar, he activated his new ability. His fists grew even larger, and his legs were covered with pulsating energy marks.
Gustavo (determined, with a confident smile): "Now you'll see what a real kid is capable of!"
His fists, now gigantic, glowed intensely as he prepared for his next attack. He moved with greater speed than before, catching Amendonin off guard. Gustavo punched the air, launching an energy attack in the form of a fist towards the criminal leader.
Amendonin (surprised, but still arrogant): "Don't think that just because you got bigger, you're going to take me down, kid!"
Amendonin quickly strengthened his axe, channeling his power to unleash a blast of air that cut through Gustavo's energy attack, splitting it in half. But before he could react, Gustavo was already upon him, punching with impressive speed.
Gustavo's blows were like a rain of hammers, each one with enough force to topple a building. Despite his armor and strength, Amendonin began to feel the weight of Gustavo's power. However, he was not an easy opponent.
Amendonin (snarling, irritated): "You're persistent, but you're still just a kid. Let's see how you handle this!"
Amendonin sent another blast of air with his axe, this time with much more power, hitting Gustavo from the side, tearing up the ground around him and sending him flying backward. Gustavo rolled on the ground, quickly getting up, now even more determined.
Zeki (observing, thoughtful): "His ability is powerful. I'm not sure if he's stronger than Isadora now; it's hard to tell. He's using strength, but he still doesn't know how to use it effectively."
Ignoring the pain, Gustavo focused his energy and charged forward again. He knew he couldn't let Amendonin win. With a swift move, he launched another punch into the air, sending an energy fist towards the criminal leader. Amendonin blocked with his axe, but the force of the impact made the weapon tremble in his hands.
Gustavo (shouting, determined): "I'm not stopping until I take you down, old man!"
Amendonin (resisting, with a threatening smile): "Let's see how long you can hold out, kid."
The fight continued fiercely, with Gustavo increasing his strength and speed, and Amendonin resisting with his experience and ability to strengthen his weapons. Although Amendonin still had control, Gustavo did not stop advancing, showing that despite being Rank D, he was a formidable opponent.
