Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Losers.

SpeedWagon is midway through the second lap, while Nico just started running the second lap.

Rain sees Nico and can tell that he isn't going to win this race.

Nico's aura begins to boost, it's so visible, it reaches the sky and splits clouds apart. Nico is getting closer to SpeedWagon.

SpeedWagon is sweating profusely, he's scared of Nico's rough aura.

Nico feels on top of the world, he can already see the future of him crossing the finish line and learning, all the new abilities Adam's going to teach him.

He trips and falls down, Adam laughs so hard, he falls off SpeedWagon. Rain laughs too, but maintains composure while laughing.

Adam stands back up, hops unto SpeedWagon and then they move. Nico still wiping the dust of his shirt.

He stood up seconds later and continued running. He knows that running the third lap is going to be hell.

"Being the hardcore otaku that I am, in almost every, anime, donghua, manga, manhwa, manhua, light novel, web novel, graphic novel and comic book. Anytime a character is in dipshit, a random power up comes upon them, if I'm lucky enough, I can receive one", Nico shouts out while running.

Adam screams out loud and holds his right knee with both hands. SpeedWagon abruptly stops. Nico passes Adam with not a single care shown on his face in the world.

Adam smiles, Rain appears behind Adam asking him what's wrong. He explains to her that he has muscle pull on his right knee.

She tells Adam to calm down and not to move the knee, just keep it in place it'll go shortly.

Midway through the third lap, Nico feels on top of the world once more. He pretends as if there's an actual audience there, so he waves and looks around.

He sees a woman at the audience, waving back to him, she's wearing a shirt with the "Exorcist church" symbol and slogan on it.

He waves back to the woman.

"WHAT THE FUCK!!, WHY CAN I SEE THE THINGS ON THE WOMAN'S SHIRT, BUT I CAN'T SEE HER FACE, UGHHHH", He asks himself.

He slows down a bit and then sees that Adam is catching up to him. Both are on equal speeds.

In the final moments of the race, they are equal from the beginning to the end of the fourth half.

And so the battle between a man versus a man and a horse comes to an end, as both competitors have crossed the finish line.

Adam asks who won, Rain replies that it wasn't Adam who won, it was actually SpeedWagon but who really cares.

"DUN, DUN, DUN, I DIN'T WIN, I LOST KRAHHHHHHH!!!", Nico screams while staring up to the sky.
