"Tch… Don't think we don't know! You just want to monopolize that powerful energy!"
"Huff…" Al sighed. "Who would even want to touch that disgusting, evil energy?"
Some of them were clearly offended. Two figures lunged forward—one with a blazing fist,
Fire Fist,
and the other flying in with a kick infused with Vita energy.
Heavy Kick.
"You talk too much, kid!"
Al didn't move. As they closed in, he simply raised his hand—effortlessly stopping both attacks at once, then lightly countered with a simple punch to each of them. That was all it took. Both attackers were sent flying and knocked unconscious in a single motion.
It happened so fast. The others, who had initially underestimated him, began to see Al as someone dangerous. And some of them… got excited to challenge him.
A few smiled, eager to step forward. Their adrenaline spiked, wondering who among them could take down the formidable figure before them. Others hesitated, choosing to wait and observe.
