            "This Nonaka Hajime guy is different...something even more dangerous than the beast in the report mentioned is sealed inside him, but who did all those things?" Ken think in his mind, as his face turn serious and his special eyes: eyes of infinity show every single detail of mana flow from Hajime's body. Hajime look at Ken who still standing at there but not attacking, the sweats start to drop. "Did he...try to observe me? But observing doesn't need this many times, right?" Hajime think as he prepared his battle stance, his body instinct knows that the threat of the male in front of him is truly tremendous.

The tension crackled in the air like electricity as Ken and Hajime circled each other, their movements calculated and precise. Each step they took echoed the determination burning within them, a silent promise of the clash that was about to unfold. Their eyes locked in a fierce gaze, a silent challenge passing between them as they prepared for the inevitable confrontation.

As they drew closer, the anticipation reached its peak, a palpable energy pulsating around them. The slightest twitch of a muscle could signal the beginning of an explosive exchange. Then, in a blur of motion, their hands clashed.

Ken's strike was swift and powerful. Yet, Despite the force behind Ken's attack, Hajime managed to block it, though the impact sent him flying backward far away, the force reverberating through his entire body.

"What was that just now?! That kind of strength..." Hajime sweats break out, looking at his hands as they are shaking.

Gasping for breath, Hajime pushed himself back onto his feet, his mind racing as he tried to comprehend the sheer strength behind Ken's strike. It was unlike anything he had ever encountered before, a raw power that defied logic. Clenching his fists, he refused to let fear consume him, instead focusing on the task at hand.

But as he steadied himself, the pain coursing through his hand served as a grim reminder of the challenge that lay ahead. This was no ordinary opponent he faced; Ken was a force to be reckoned with, his prowess unmatched by any other.

"What's wrong...start to give up by my first strike, at least make some move to let me come up my second strike" Ken mocked on Hajime. Hajime immediately knows that Ken doesn't use up his full power at the first strike, that was just a testing. Determined not to falter, Hajime summoned every ounce of his strength his mind ablaze with the realization that he needed to tap into his full potential if he stood any chance of emerging victorious. With a newfound resolve, he launched himself back into the fray, his movements fueled by a determination to prove himself worthy of the challenge.

Yet, with each strike he unleashed, Ken effortlessly evaded his attacks, his movements fluid and precise. It was as if he could anticipate every move before it even happened, leaving Hajime struggling to keep pace.

"Tch! He is underestimating me!" Hajime think and then received punch in the guts by Ken, making Hajime vomit up, as he kneels down. "Told you to use your magics, come on, don't let me down." Ken said as he does a disappointed face. 

Hajime stood up hardly, and continue to rush to Ken as he keep letting out the flurry of punches.

Then finally, Hajime caught a chance to reach his fist to Ken's face, but the fist stopped on the halfway before it can reach to the surface of the skin of Ken's. "What?!" Hajime widened his eyes, shocked, seeing his fists on the air.

"I can't move a bit again, no matter how I added my strength!" Hajime think in his mind...then got punched directly again and sent out flying away. Hajime then vomitted for another time.

Frustration gnawed at the edges of Hajime's mind as he struggled to find a way past Ken's defenses. His magic remained dormant, unable to penetrate the unknown "barriers" that surrounded his opponent. But deep within him, a flicker of something stirred, a spark of realization that there was more to this battle than met the eye.

"I must find out a way...my magic won't work on him as well, I know that he has the reasons to cover up his eyes...but he keeps dodging my attacks...which mean I can hurt him as well, I must use something that he cannot catch..."Hajime think in his mind, the seal in his body start to loose and shake in Ken's sight. 

With a sudden burst of clarity, Hajime's focus shifted, his gaze locking onto the seal that lay dormant within him. It pulsed with an otherworldly energy, a power waiting to be unleashed. With a silent command, he willed the seal to awaken, its energy surging through him like a tidal wave.

Ken's eyes widened in shock as he sensed the shift in Hajime's power, a realization dawning upon him that the true extent of his opponent's strength had yet to be revealed. "Looks like it finally started, he finally realising it." With a smirk, knowing that from this moment on, the battle would reach new heights of intensity.

Hajime stands up...then the fire appears on his fist, but it isn't the regular colour, the black and white flames show the chaos from the mana. Hajime start to move forward to Ken. "I can't see his moves now...that flames is the cause that helps him to covered it all..." Ken said, as his sweats drop down. "The turnover starts from now... I will show you... what I'm capable of!" Hajime shouted to Ken.
