亚瑟影院

Then again, most of them felt bad for Satoshi. At the end of the day, controlling his tamed beasts is his superpower so telling him not to use it goes against the rules of a superhero tournament. Some of them even thought of complaining but they knew they couldn\'t.

This wasn\'t your regular tournament after all. And most importantly, it was Knighthawk\'s class they were talking about here. It was his class, his rules.

Principal Sai Tama also had no say in the matter. And quite frankly, he was a bit curious as to how Satoshi would deal with a powerful superhero without the help of his tamed beasts.

There was a brief pause before Satoshi and Fuuka jumped back into action.

The crowd held their breath when Satoshi and Fuuka started moving again. On one side, Satoshi kept his center of gravity as low as he could, walking on all fours like a water strider on a still lake.

As for Fuuka, she maintained her distance from Satoshi since she knew just how dangerous she was when it comes to raw physical combat. She\'d lose in an instant if she let Satoshi close in on her.

Even though Satoshi used her own attack against her, it still didn\'t discourage her from using the same tactic.

In fact, she even propped more sound and spatial traps in the air to limit Satoshi\'s movements even more. It\'s as if she completely forgot what just happened a moment ago.

\'Oi~ are you kidding right now?\' Satoshi asked himself as he forced a smile on his face.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

Fuuka sensed the anxiousness in Satoshi\'s voice, and he put up even more traps in the air. At this point, Satoshi couldn\'t even move from where his location was.

On the off-chance that there\'s a chain reaction, Fuuka would be able to react in time. As for Satoshi, he\'d really be caught up in the explosion. He might even lose a couple of limbs and die.

But Fuuka wasn\'t taking her chances. She was going to win no matter what.

She completely overestimated Satoshi though. After all, her superpower could easily kill a superhero, let alone a powerless person.

Still, this didn\'t force Satoshi to use any of his tamed beasts. He was going to win of his own accord.

[Let me help you, Satoshi]

"No, I\'m fine, I can do this," Satoshi said, firmly rejecting Dex who spoke in his mind. "But if something goes sideways... call out to Sera right away."

[Roger that, please take care of yourself, Satoshi]

"Of course,"

Meanwhile, the audience grew exceptionally worried for Satoshi since he was forcing himself. In hindsight, they believed that he had done enough to prove his capabilities. Backing down from the fight wouldn\'t put him in a bad light at all.

In fact, a majority of the audience already held him in high regard. A single match wherein he was severely disadvantaged wouldn\'t change their perception of him.

Ayumu and Tatsuki, Satoshi\'s parents, clenched their fists. Deep inside, they hoped that Satoshi would just accept his defeat and back down from the match.

However, a small part of them wanted him to win.

After all, he had worked so hard in his early years just to go head-to-head with superheroes. If all those hard work amounted to nothing, then why did he have to work so hard for it? What was the point of achieving peak human abilities when it would lose against a superpower?

"Is big brother going to win?" Aira asked out of nowhere.

Surprised, Tatsuki plastered a grin on his face and patted Aira on the head. "Of course, he\'s going to win."

Back on the stage, Fuuka could already see victory well within her grasp. Without further ado, she prepared a powerful sound beam on his palms. A single shot from that beam would trigger all of the traps, and she knew it would be more than enough to knock Satoshi down.

If he had a contingency plan, then he should use it right now. Otherwise, he was going to lose.

It seemed like all hope was lost for Satoshi. Knighthawk, who was watching from the sidelines, was prepared to raise his hand if the fight goes out of hand. He wanted to test Satoshi\'s capabilities, so much so that it didn\'t even occur to him the subject of repercussions.

If Satoshi got gravely injured due to this match, he will be completely liable for it.

And at this point, he couldn\'t just stop the match since doing so would put him in a bad light. He had the nerve to restrict Satoshi, and now he was going to stop the match?!

Just like Satoshi, Knighthawk was trapped. Deep inside he wanted Satoshi to forfeit.

The majority of the audience also wanted Satoshi to forfeit as well.

Before they could say anything, however, Fuuka already fired her sound beam. She didn\'t do it because she wanted to win no matter what. She did it because she noticed that Satoshi still had that determined expression on his face.

He hasn\'t given up yet!

What Fuuka didn\'t know was that Satoshi\'s keen sense allowed him to differentiate where the sound traps and spatial traps. As soon as Fuuka fired her sound beam, Satoshi propelled himself forward.

It took a split second for the space trap to activate, so Satoshi had enough time to get himself into a spot where the sound traps were.

Everyone gasped when Satoshi jumped. They thought he had finally gone. They thought he\'d finally gone crazy.

Even Fuuka was shocked, all the color drained from her face when she noticed that Satoshi did a suicide dive headfirst into her traps.

"NO!" She screamed.

But it was too late.

BOOM!
