"Something you want?" She looked at Bray intently before shrugging her shoulders, after that, she glanced at the men in the room before following Bray out.
As soon as the guards saw Ferry, he smiled mischievously while revealing malicious grins. Such a beauty, they thought.
…
A few moments passed, and soon Bray and Ferry found their way to the training room, following which Bray directly went to the other side of the stage in the middle of the arena.
Ferry snarked and then went to the other side. She couldn't believe that Bray actually wanted to fight her, when most men challenged her, it would be for something fun. Although she lived the life of a sl*t, she liked it.
She didn't have much time to live anyway, so she might as well enjoy her life to the fullest before dying, this was the only thought she had since learning what sort of place this was.
Seeing that there was someone she couldn't get, she was slightly dissatisfied, but she couldn't blame him, not everyone that was here was interested in having fun before they died.
Sigh, and he is such a handsome young man.
Bray wasn't bothered by what she was thinking, he took a fighting stance as he faced Ferry.
"I'm a lady, don't you seem a bit too serious?" Ferry asked.
"You don't have to worry, I know how to handle a lady very well." Bray replied bluntly, and without wasting time, he lunged forward, "Let's fight."
Ferry smiled wryly as she too lunged forward with a palm strike. Below power level 100, they could only be considered beginner-stage awakeners, only when they stepped into power level 100 and awakened the special effect buried in their abilities would they be able to truly be considered a threat.
Soon they both collided, Bray with his fist and Ferry with her palm. Bray deliberately chose not to use his full strength in case she was too fragile, and he ended up killing her.
As someone who was new to the world of awakeners, he hadn't killed anyone yet and didn't have the heart to kill. Besides, he didn't yet know if there were any rules against killing. What if he killed her and was killed in return? He didn't want to die just yet.
Boom!
Both palm and fist strikes connected, resulting in a loud explosion. Bray was sent flying a couple meters back while Ferry remained in place, he was at a disadvantage in this clash.
That's not it, she used her full strength while I only reduced mine to half. Bray had increased his strength by more than 3000, so he knew that his strength was definitely one of the highest, if not the highest.
For Ferry to force him back, it had to be because she used her full strength. Inwardly, Bray smiled in remark at himself. I am still quite ignorant, it was only supposed to be a spar, but she used her full strength. I am still thinking that this is a place where one's life actually matters to others.
I need to be less careless, or else I might lose my life underestimating the people in this prison. After steeling his resolve, Bray took a deep breath and then released it all. He released all of his strength.
He was no longer going to underestimate the world enders of this prison, some of them were from good planets and were brought up well, while there were others that were brought up as vile evil doers.
With this thought, Bray shouted, "Again!" as he lunged forward, this time his speed had increased by more than two times.
Whoosh.
With the increase in strength and speed, Ferry was barely able to react and could only react reflexively in return. She didn't understand why Bray suddenly increased his strength, wasn't he fighting with all his strength in the first place? When she saw Bray's expression previously, she thought that he was definitely going to use his full strength, it was exactly for this reason that she too released her full strength.
Boom.
Ferry's face flushed red in pain as she felt the muscles beneath her arm rupture slightly. She gritted her teeth in order not to scream in pain, after which she waved her hand.
"I quit, I quit!" She knew that there was no point in fighting with Bray, she was no longer his match since his strength increased by more than 2x. Previously, when Bray's strength was just halved, she could only push him back a couple of steps with all her strength.
From this, one should be able to infer how much strength Bray possessed compared to her.
Seeing that the fight had come to an end so soon, Bray smiled wryly. Is this considered a victory? Can I get the ability cards? Just as Bray wanted to decline the request to stop the fight, three cards appeared around her.
They flew towards him with a whoosh the next moment and entered his storage space as per his previous request.
Bray's smile widened, he cupped his hands as a sign of acknowledgement towards Ferry, "Thank you for today."
Ferry nodded, although she felt there was truly something wrong with Bray, she couldn't place a finger on it. Why was he so happy when he defeated her in just two moves? I can feel his excitement oozing out.
Does he have some sort of f*tish that pertains to defeating beautiful women? Even back then, he looked quite happy to challenge me. Ferry shook her head with a sigh, ignoring her thoughts. She waved her hand as Bray turned to return to her cell.
In this prison, winning or losing didn't matter, she wasn't too sad about losing. One could win a fight today and end up losing their life the next day, this was how life in the prison was.
It was a desolate life where surviving wasn't in one's hands, rather, it depended on how much fun the guards wanted to have at that moment, if it was too much, the lives lost might be exaggerated, but if they didn't feel like having much fun, then the lives lost would be less.
System, I wonder, how much has my strength increased?
