BXBX NOVEL Chapter 139 Ronan Vs Percy
The refree looked at the two kids and felt a chill go down his own spine. Technically he was slightly weaker than both of them , and while advanced in age he was not sure if he could stop them if the need be.
However he was assigned a job by the nation of Avalon and needed to perform his duties to the best of his ability. Looking at the two he said ” Fighters , take positions “.
Ronan shrugged his shoulders and started to hop at his own spot , showing that he was on his feet and ready to attack , while Percy took a stable stance by planting his feet.
It was clear that Percy was ready to let Ronan attack first by his stance, as the various sect masters and Alexander found this to be very peculiar considering that usually a fighter wanted to gain the upper-hand in a fight early on and not be on the defensive.
However one look at Leif in Percy’s corner and Alexander knew that something big was cooking as he smiled and became a patient spectator.
The refree signalled for the match to start amongst the thunderous cheers of the crowd , and just as he said ‘ Fight! ‘ Ronan pounced towards Percy in a flash of lightning..
Ronan always went for the assualt head on in every single fight, however this time around his speed was just something else as one could barely make a shadow of his figure by the rays of lightning left behind , he was blinding quick as by the time one blinked he was already onto Percy.
Zimo , Mad-Dog and the other contestants who had fought Ronan gulped at this point as they realised that Ronan had went easy on them. Not even fighting to his true potential as they saw Ronan land a devastating lightning fist straight to Percy’s guard.
KABOOM!
thunder boomed as Ronan delivered a thunder-punch so strong that the entire arena rattled by the shockwave but despite his strength, Percy guarded against the move perfectly as he did not even reel back a single step.
His feet planted perfectly to the ground , it only became apparent to the others now that he had a myriad of flames rotating near his feet creating strong air currents to cushion him taking attacks.
Percy had ingeniously created a beautiful technique to take head on attacks as he had virtually unlimited support to withstand attacks.
However, before one could even admire the beauty of his defence , it changed into offense really fast as before Ronan could regain his footing from the self-recoil of his punch , Percy used flame blast at point blank range to blast Ronan back .
BRRR….Hisssss
Percy’s flame hissed as it blasted Ronan back to his initial position , with the sides of Ronan’s robes catching fire.
Although Ronan did not take much damage , he was forced to retreat and swat the fire off his robes as the Avalonian crowd cheered Percy’s initial win over Ronan with a monstrous cheer.
The announcer struggled to speak some words of insight into the match , however his voice was completely drowned by the cheers of the crowd as he sighed and helplessly cursed his luck .
Today was going to be a difficult day at work for him.
Ronan grinned at the setback , he looked at Percy with a big smile as for the first time ever in a fight he actually took the initiative to talk to his opponent as he said ” Nice one , big brother “.
Percy gave a smug look to Ronan right back as he said ” Too weak , little one , i thought after that destruction of the punching machine in the internal selections that your much might be something else.
However, it could not even make my knees buckle…. shame “.
A loud ‘ Ooooooo ‘ went off from the crowd as Percy roasted Ronan, Augustus laughed loudly fr his camp while Luna seemed to be annoyed.
But Ronan himself did not mind the criticism at all as he took it as more of a challenge.
Closing in once more with even greater speed , Ronan decided to use the same move twice .
Percy’s eyes widened in shock to see this , as it was beyond his initial estimates of what Ronan would do.
He hurriedly tried to activate the same flame vortexes around himself and had even succeeded to do so in time , but even then when Ronan’s fist collided against his guard , it was instantly blown away this time around sending him flying back towards the wind barrier.
Mid-Air , he managed to aerodynamically fold his legs and flip to land on the floor before hitting the wall , however his eyes were in complete disbelief as his arms were still ringing from the impact.
He had purposefully let himself be blown away as had he been stubborn and take Ronan’s attack with full force he had no doubt in his mind that his bones would be broken.
Nonetheless, he was forced back and Ronan did not even close in to take advantage of the situation.
Smiling from a distance, he only said ” Say what big brother , does the strength this time around satisfy you? “.
Those who did not know Ronan too well , would have thought he was retalitating and showboating his enemy , however Alexander knew better than them.
As some of the crowd members applauded while some members boo’ed Ronan , Percy dusted himself off and said ” Not bad … “.
Alexander knew that Ronan’s attack now was to prove his strength to Percy and Percy only , as he had questioned it moments ago.
While the others could not see it , Alexander could see it as plain as a day. For Ronan this was a fight to earn Percy’s respect and for that one purpose he was going to let Percy throw everything he has and overcome it all to win , because only and only then would he earn true respect from his elder brother.
