"Again"
Roar Dean brings everyone back to reality, those that were lost in thought and those who were talking among themselves about how the battle was going. Many feel that it won't be in the favor of Dean and begin to focus on the battle once again.
They were all shocked by how bold Dean was, most of them could not believe it. If they were the one in that situation they would have found a way to run away or beg for mercy which they know it was impossible to gain.
"Little lad, I love your courage".
Night Fury said with seriousness he felt Dean was a worthy opponent. Night Fury was now able to suppress the energy that was on a rampage in his body to a standstill situation so he was not as fearful as before he just had to kill his opponent and then go find a way to treat himself.
The two of them started exchanging moves with one using a sword while the other using his fist. This time around the fight was more intense than before with their attacks spreading out, they were moving about with Night Fury being the one in charge of attacking while Dean was defending seriously.
Sometimes Dean would be the one attacking but it wouldn't last long before Night Fury would overpower him and continue to be the one attacking.
"hmm…"
With a cold look, Night Fury reacted to Dean. Seeing the way Dean was fighting him, he saw that Dean is absent-minded in the battle; he was just defending himself with his instinct and will be conscious sometimes but it won't take long before he would go back to his absent-minded state.
"Little lad I'm sorry for having to kill you in this state, it seems your mental state has become unstable from the fighting you have been through. So the pressure was too much for you"
Night Fury thought to himself that it was a shameful act to kill Dean like that but he felt it was also the best opportunity.
He wondered if Dean was fully conscious in the battle, how it would be like, he felt he would be under more pressure. Not just the one he was facing he could not help but give Dean a look of appraisal reevaluating him but the bottom line of the situation was that he would have to kill Dean or else he would not be able to have the opportunity to do that in the future because if a peak lower level foundation realm cultivator could put him under pressure what about when he breakthrough to lower stage of the middle level of the foundation then killing him would be an easy thing to accomplish.
The two of them continue fighting with no one slacking off but as the fight keeps going on Dean keep slacking off and it is becoming noticeable to those watching the fight that they all feel things were wrong. The people of Fountain Hilltown present were all praying that the fight will end up in the favor of Dean.
"Little Lad, wake up" Zi felt things were out of control and became bothered and could not help but send messages to Dean sea of consciousness.
But Dean did not reply.
"arrh…" Dean roared with pain. After which the two men who were having it hot immediately separated from each other.
Dean was all blood he was already topless before the battle with Night Fury but now his trouser was now tattered turning to a short. All over his body was covered with injuries with a fresh one cutting across his chest and was about half an inch deep, blood was rushing out from it without stopping.
"What is this little fellow doing, is he that serious about getting himself killed," Night Fury thought to himself and was feeling remorse for killing Dean.
"Little fellow would you like to be a disciple of my master, if you agree we can stop the fighting" Night Fury said while standing about ten feet away from Dean.
His statement shocked everyone present to their core, they never expected the battle to head in that direction from enemies, to being brothers of the same master.
But Dean, who was standing covered in blood, charged after hearing the statement like he did not care about changing sides.
"Little Lad, what are you doing, are you planning to get yourself killed". Zi roared in his sea of consciousness but there was no reply.
"Little Fellow, wak…."
This time around before Zi could finish its statement it felt Dean turning its connection off, so Zi would not be able to disturb him or notice what was happening outside.
They kept fighting like before what was shocking was that Night Fury was finding it hard to kill Dean even with all the decisive blows he tried to lay on Dean to take his life he would find a way to dodge it even if he could not dodge them completely Dean would try his best to make sure that it did not hit any of his vital points.
They separated, after they did.
This time around there was a smile on Dean's face which was not fitting the current situation.
"Sir Night Fury thank you for the fight. I think it is time to end it". Dean said with a bright smile like victory was already in his reach
"Little fellow, if you could survive this move of mine I will just destroy your cultivation".
"I can't leave a threat in a good form you should understand".
"Fury of Death, slash of destruction third form,"
Night Fury said turning his sword in half-circle form before launching his attack
While he was doing that Dean that was now fully conscious did not slack off but also strike with his own attacks.
"Movement technique halo step second form drifting," Dean said charging toward Night Fury with his speed increasing than his usual pace.
"fighting technique"
"halo strike, second form iron styles"
"What"
"Who is going to win" those watching the fight were all shock with the turnout of the fight.
