"This..." The people couldn't help but gasp.
"Isn't Ragna kind of fighting pretty well?"
"Y-yeah. Maybe he is not as weak as we think he is?"@@@@
"No. He should have been worse. Did he join Libation Fiesta because they managed to transform him into this strong?"
The people were confused by the fight since his improvement was so big that it was hard to believe.
However, the situation in the arena was actually better than what was visible for Libation Fiesta.
Their injuries had caused Tarkan to slow down for a bit.
At the same time, Ragna's condition wasn't that different. He bit his lips. His arm was hit pretty badly, to the point where it was hard to actually hold his spear. Still, this was nothing compared to a Tier 4 beast's attack.
Ragna hurriedly waved his other hand, shaking Tarkan off his shield.
Tarkan jumped back while observing Ragna's condition. 'Are you serious? The injury on his forehead has closed up. I don't know about his stamina, but if I go for mutual destruction, I'll lose. In that case...'
Tarkan moved forward as Ragna did the same.
He used his Beast Soul and punched Ragna's shield as the latter bashed him with all his strength.
Bam!
The impact caused a loud sound and produced a small shock wave. However, they were actually equal.
Ragna didn't get pushed back.
Tarkan gritted his teeth. "You're finally showing your true power, huh?"
"I will accompany you until you can't move your hands anymore." Ragna smirked, his confidence starting to build up.
Seven years ago.
Erwin was walking down the corridor of the explorer school he attended. That was when he heard a series of banging sounds, which piqued his interest.
"Mhmm?" When Erwin took a look, he saw a young man punching a sandbag. Each strike contained a power that caused the sand bag to move back for a meter.
That was why Erwin actually approached him.
"Haa... Ha..." Tarkan was panting heavily after doing his training for more than two hours before he suddenly heard Erwin's voice from the side. "Why are you wasting your potential like that?"
"Huh?" Tarkan turned his head around, glaring at Erwin. "Aren't you Erwin? The one who has the SS rank potential as an Explorer? What are you doing here? Are you trying to look down on me who only has B rank potential?"
Tarkan misunderstood his words as an insult.
However, Erwin simply made a grunted expression. "SS Rank potential, huh? It's high, but how dare they not give me SSS rank potential? Screw them."
"Huh?" Tarkan's eyebrows twitched. To think that he would actually dislike his potential. "Are you trying to show off in front of me? The only one who has higher rank is only that Ail—"
Before he finished, Erwin snorted. "Yeah, yeah. I am the second. Second place is the first loser, I know!"
"What the hell?" Tarkan's annoyance turned into confusion.
"Anyway, you're wasting your potential. Since I'm the second, I want you to be the third. This way, you're going to be the second loser."
"What are you talking about? Are you insulting me?" Tarkan glared at him.
Erwin simply moved closer and started grabbing Tarkan's legs, feeling them.
"What? Are you gay?" Tarkan tried to pull back, but Erwin simply said, "As expected... Despite getting trained, your muscles stay flexible. Why are you fixated so much with those punches when you have such treasures..."
"Treasures?" Tarkan didn't understand what he was talking about.
"Tarkan. Be grateful that I will choose you as my friend. Come with me, I'll show you the sight of the second loser."
Tarkan was annoyed at that time as he had never seen anyone have such high self-esteem. But at the same time, he was actually interested in this self-conceited man.
