=====================================

"In the dance of combat, those who keep their minds clear lead the steps"

(POV: Ryomen Sukuna)

"He who has won all matches by a huge margin. . . LIAM AMADEUS"

The male commentator said, his voice I was barely able to make out as I was standing on the stage.

"Going against, he who has ended all his matches with a single punch, RYOMEN SUKUNA"

The female commentator said, she was also the one who said, after hearing about our match, that she was...

Let's not talk about that.

The guy standing in front of me, Liam Amadeus, was quite tense.

His name reminds me of the guy from that one anime...what was it's name? Welcome to school, Iruma-kun...or something.

I remember the guy's name was Asmodeus.

Anyhow, back to the current topic...

A boy stood on the other side of the stage, his hands in front of his chest, as he assumed a fighting position.

His left eye was deep black, as if carrying a deep darkness. His right eye was blocked by his blond hair, which reminded me of Dazai.

He was wearing a plain red T-shirt, along with plain black pants which allowed free movement.

His muscles were visible on his arms, one could tell that they were built by intense training over the years.

A light breeze went by, his hair waving to the right, his right eye was revealed, which glowed in a bright red light.

My eyes widened, before going back to normal. I was not expecting a Sharingan here.

It wasn't actually a Sharingan, obviously, but I felt a sense of unease when looking at the eye.

Though, the eye did not have any aura of itself, which leads me to conclude that it has not been awakened yet.

Or maybe I'm just overthinking this and he's simply heterochromatic.

Liam was quite nervous, readying his stance the best he could, making sure to leave no openings.

Meanwhile, I was standing without a care in the world, hands in my pocket, as I looked at Liam with a provocative expression.

.

"BEGIN"

Cheers rang out all around the stadium, expecting a huge collision to occur as soon as the word was uttered.

But soon, the cheers died down, seeing that none of the two were moving.

Liam's gaze was piercing, trying to figure out Sukuna's plan, he found his stance to be too open, even a child could land a hit on him right now, and that didn't sit well with him.

Most of the fighters had noticed this as well, if they were in Liam's place, they would probably have done the same.

But, only about four people found the true meaning of this action.

It was a challenge, a challenge put up with so much confidence that the opponent does not have the ability to land even a single hit.

The Head of the Hunter Association and the principals of the academies looked at each other, the Principal had his eyebrows furrowed, while the Head had a big smile on his face.
