Chapter 64 First Fight Party 6 (2/2)

Jesse relaxed back down once again while settling in for his massage to start.

”Anyway, since he didn't have it, his parents and my parents just agreed that I would observe him along with a bit of a research team. He might be something completely different from those monsters and this might be the first finding of it. If I wasn't being worked to death, I would be fucking thrilled.”

Annie didn't say anything else but just turned back to the stage. Her thoughts were running wild at this point.

Laz didn't say anything as he climbed onto the stage. He just gave one last look to Kennedy and a small nod before he turned around to face his opponent. The tall idiot had stopped showing off for the crowd and was just looking at Laz like a small creature to be devoured. He didn't think much of this small man who had a good build. No matter how strong he was, he could only be so powerful with a body that short.

As the judge took a step back, he waved both men into the center of the ring before indicating that they should shake hands. Laz and tall man both stuck out there hands to shake and began to grip each others hands tightly. As was custom, this was the first display of strength.

Although the tall man kept increasing his strength, Laz just responded in kind and didn't try to take the initiative. Instead, he was matching this muscle head's strength, bit by bit.

As they broke away to take their stances, the tall man finally got serious and settled into a half crouch while raising both his hands. After the hand shake, he knew that he had sorely misjudged his opponent.

Laz didn't take any stances but just stood there with his hands behind his back, as though he was watching a show. He had never really fought with an actual fighter before so even though he looked calm, he was actually boiling and excited on the inside as he started speeding up his energy cycle and spreading out his sense. He wanted to make sure he didn't miss a single movement of his opponent.

The judge then waved his palm down between the two men to start the match and retreated back to get out of the way. The tall man didn't directly charge Laz as many had thought he would but just started taking small sliding steps to circle Laz. He wanted to feel him out before he went on the offensive.

Laz didn't react in the slightest and just let the man do what he wanted. He was content to respond instead of act. The only thing he did do was to keep his eyes on the man so that it seemed like he was paying attention.

The crowd, riled up before the match, was anything but quiet while they yelled out various chants to encourage the fighting to begin. When that didn't work, they started cursing the two fighters.

”Come on, kick his skinny little ass.”

”What happened to all that show before? Don't tell us your just a one minute man.”

”Fuck him up already. Damn, I could have done it myself by now.”

The tall man, fired up by the crowd, finally made a move with a straight punch towards the side of Laz's head. In response, Laz just slightly leaned to the left to avoid it before stepping to the right to avoid the follow up to his chest. The tall man, stunned at Laz's movements but reassured by the fact that he didn't fight back, started to let loose with more punches and an occasional kick.

As the screams got louder, more and more people were excited by the fact that no matter how he attacked, Laz couldn't be touched. If anything, it looked more like the two were dancing with the tall guy leading and Laz responding.

After a few minutes those, Laz couldn't help but frown. Although this guy was strong and had good judgement, he obviously never studied martial arts before and therefore wasn't able to teach Laz anything.

With a sigh and a barely whispered ”worthless,” Laz finally reacted.

The tall man had brought his leg around for a roundhouse kick which Laz easily ducked. The then stepped forward and reaching back a slight bit, punched forward straight into the mans stomach. After having failed the kick, his tense body had loosened up at almost the exact moment Laz made a move and as such, was unprepared to defend. Laz's punch landed right in the middle of the man's stomach, catching him off guard. Laz put a bit of energy behind it while bracing his body. The tall man ended up flying backwards as though launched from a cannon and without a single bit of resistance, was launched right off the stage while the heavy hit caused him to start vomiting while still in the air.

As he hit the ground and passed out, he still twitched a few more times before finally falling unconscious. At this moment, the entire room was quiet enough to hear a pin drop.

Of course that only lasted a moment before an explosive cheer rang out everywhere.
