51 Suppressed (2/2)

Leon wasn't stupid enough to engage Eugene in close combat just because he goaded him to. The military had a unique set of martial arts to combat the advantage beasts had in physical strength.

Leon was impatient to end the fight quickly so he could resume Lynne's treatment, but he did not plan to use his needles. It was his trump card for killing.

Fire gathered to him like numerous strands as they weaved around him in a spherical manner.

”Hmph! Don't think I'll wait for you to power up your attack!” Since Leon did not charge at him, he will take the initiative to strike first.

Eugene took a step forward with a stomp and the rocks rose again before Eugene punched at the air in front and the rocks shot at Leon like bullets.

Leon's face changed slightly as he dodged to the side. The fire followed with him at the center. Part of the fire strands gathered to his hands and condensed into fire needles. The fire needles were compressed and solidified before he shot them back at the same time, he was dodging the rock bullets.

Eugene had anticipated a counterattack and quickly stomped the ground again as an earth wall quick rose in front of him to block the two fire needles.

He had the choice of dodging, but someone may have been hit by the fire needles. Leon was forcing him to block the fire needles.

The fire needles drilled through the thick earth wall with a lot of momentum, but it was not enough. The tips were exposed from the other end of the earth wall before they had lost all momentum.

Eugene sweated as the tips were just inches from his face, but his blood boiled with excitement. His anger subsided and his battle spirit rose as one would expect from a battle maniac.

”Good! Let's see how you fare in close combat!”

As soon as the earth wall collapsed, a footprint was imprinted in the ground behind as Eugene shot forward like a cannonball.

”You talk too much!!” Leon roared. Eugene's anger may have subsided, but Leon's anger had not.

Eugene was met with another two fire needles to his face. He was shocked as he twisted his body in midair and narrowly dodged the fire needles. He did not expect Leon to form another two fire needles so swiftly.

”Shit! Everyone dodge!” The teachers warned the students as the fire needle shot at them. There was no way the teacher could block the fire needles when Eugene barely did. They were only 1st to 3rd step awakeners. They focused on education and naturally neglected training their ability.

Everyone thought they had put themselves at a reasonable distance to watch the fight, but who knew that their lives would still be threatened at such a distance.

Coincidentally, Edric was in the fire needle's most direct line of trajectory as his eyes were wide open and feet rooted on the spot. Luckily, he had Cayden and Adrian by his side as they were fast thinkers and tackled him to the ground. The fire needles brushed past them drilled into a stone wall not far away.

Edric was shaken with fear when he just experienced a close shave with death. An unpleasant smell traveled up his nose as he noticed his pants was wet. He had inadvertently pissed himself.

Edric felt humiliated and embarrassed as he looks at Leon in the distance with hatred and gritted teeth.

...

Leon was forced to receive Eugene's fist and locked into close combat as he had failed to halt Eugene's momentum.

The person having the upper hand in the close combat was quickly determined after they traded several blows.

Fighting close combat with Eugene made Leon want to puke blood from the frustration. He was so angry he could not land a solid blow on him and was suppressed instead despite wielding greater strength. All his fists and kicks could not connect and were parried one after another instead.
