Chapter 206: No use hiding it from me!
Chapter 206: No use hiding it from me!
"Come on! We haven't got the whole night to do this. Wait a minute. I got plenty of time to beat your ass. So maybe, let's just take it slow, shall we?" Taro smiled as he continued taunting the creature before him with various amounts of obscene moves.
The creature didn't laugh or talk. Instead, it just stared at Taro without moving for a hot second. Until then, the creature was speeding up, however all of a sudden, it stopped and Taro didn't know why.
"Yo! The hell are you doing? When I said I got the whole night, I meant I got the whole night to duke it out with you and not get involved in a freaking staring contest." The Wadorian shrugged.
Upon hearing this, the creature nodded its head and rushed towards Taro, swinging at him with full force. However, it didn't took the Wadorian much to evade.
"Too easy, bruv. Where's the fiery that you showed when you were beating the others down, huh?" Taro asked as he hopped around like an MMA fighter.
The creature stayed silent after the taunting and continued swinging at Taro, which the Wadorian avoided in ease. With each swing, Taro's confidence increased. He wasn't yet to be complacent or at least that's what he thought to himself as he did various antics, however without even realising, he had started being complacent.
"Oh, come on. How long are you gonna do the straightforward swings, huh? Try something new. Something different. Rile me up! Come on!" As Taro said those words, the creature changed the course of the swing and instead went for a punch, which Taro ducked out of instinct. However, following that up was a shin kick, a new move out of the creature's repertoire.
Yet again, Taro managed to evade it, but he certainly was impressed with the new moves. "Oh my! It seems that you actually listened to me. Damn, recently it feels like no one's been valuing my words that I felt like not talking at all. Seeing how you, a totally random creature of the falls is listening to me, my heart is filled with gratitude and pleasure." Taro spoke as few beads of tears rolled out of his eyes.
Seeing how emotional Taro became about this trivial thing, the creature actually stopped and waited for him to recover. However, Taro didn't appreciate this gesture.
"Oh, come on! Don't do that! Look, this is a fight. I'm the one who lost his focus on a fight. And you being my opponent should make good use of such opportunities. Understand?" Taro asked to which the creature nodded it's head. "Great. Let's continue with our fight then." Taro spoke as he raised his fists.
However, contrary to the excitement that Taro felt in the last few seconds, it was a whole lotta less right then. The reason was that the creature was back to it's old tracks.
In Taro's eyes, the creature was that button smashing kid in the arcade game section. Like, he spams the same move a thousand time and then all of a sudden learns the existence of the other buttons and then slightly touches it once before going back to his button smashing ways.
Honestly, it got to the point of being irritating for the Wadorian. Here he was, expecting a full on fight and all he got was a boring ass one.
"What the hell is this? What are you doing? I thought you listened to what I said. And instead, you're doing the exact same thing I asked you not to do. Why? Come on! Give me the excitement!" Taro screamed. Since it was night time, his voice got pretty amplified.
As if he heard what the Wadorian meant, the creature started doing a couple of kicks and punchesall of which that was easily evaded by the Wadorian. However, since what Taro was looking for was excitement and not actual hardcore fight experience, he was happy with this change.
"Great! Fucking great! You listened to me! Again! Man, if we weren't fighting each other, I would've wanted to befriend you. Like bruv, how much I missed having someone listen to me!" Taro spoke.
Although Taro could see everything else at night, somehow he couldn't see the creature's face, which made the Wadorian sad. He actually wanted to see the creature's expression because what he expected was the face filled with happiness and joy. Nevertheless, since he couldn't see it for himself, he just had to imagine it up.
"Aw, man! It's been a long time since I had fun like this. I hope this never-" Before he could even complete his sentence, he was hit with a punch that sent him for about ten metres.
Taro looked disgusted. Not because someone managed to hit him. Not because someone sent him flyingif that was the case, he would have been elated since he's such a huge masochist. Rather, it was the fact that he became complacent that he looked disgusted. But more than that, the fact that the move that took him down was generic swing number 266 was the one that made him enraged.
"Oh, boy! You didn't just do that!" Taro riled himself up and jumped around in rage as the creature watched by.
He was about to just blast himself up and beat the living shit out of the creature when he noticed something peculiar about it that made him smile wide to the point that it looked creepy. This peculiar thing got him back to his chill mood.
"You know, that was a nice trick that you did right now. Irritate me enough that I get riled up, then throw that one piece of treat then riling me up once again to get into my head and then beat the living shit out of me. It seems too much like someone I know of. Like eerily similar to that." Taro spoke. However, no response came from the others side.
"You ain't gonna respond, huh? Too bad, if you ain't gonna do it, I'll make you do it." Taro spoke as he rushed towards the creature.
The Wadorian went for the same swings that he hated moments ago, but this time, he had that creepy smile. He was truly enjoying this moment.
Just as Taro did previously, the creature managed to evade every single swings of his as well, which made Taro even happier for some reason.
Taro wanted to speak, but he decided not to and focussed himself on the battle. The eery silence accompanied by the harsh winds from the empty swings was truly unbearable for one plankton, who was waiting around to pounce on the creature. However, seeing how Taro was enjoying this, he decided to just lurk around and enjoy the stuff before him.
"Pretty skilled, aren't you? Very much like someone I knowwhich could be a total coincidence, but you know what I mean, right?" Taro asked, to which the creature responded by throwing out a punch.
"Nah, my man. You're done with your quota. It's my time for the attacks now." Taro replied with a smile and barraged with a stream of punches.
While the creature somehow managed to dodge fifty percent of the punches, he couldn't block the other fifty and that was the turning point of this fight. By the end of his barrage, Taro stood tall, while the creature was down tending to its wounds.
"As I said before, quite skilled. But then again, I have something that you don't have right now. You wanna know what that is?" Taro asked as he slammed his fist on the creature's face or at least, that's what he thought, but it rolled out of bounds.
Taro didn't give up. He followed the creature's rolling motion and tried hitting precisely on his face and nowhere else. However, with each passing moment, it seemed like the creature's formidable rolling defence was winning, until it wasn't.
What happened was that Taro gave up on chasing the creature and began to outrun it. And that was an easy task. When the creature sensed it, it tried rolling the other way, but Taro blocked that path with his foot and his foot was strong enough to actually block that path.
"You know how I was talking about you lacking something? Did you find out what that is? Well, if not, let me answer it for you. It's pure strength. I mean, even if you have good skills, if you are faced with someone of equal skills, you have to rely on the pure strength, right? I just did that. But I can't just blame it on you, can I? I mean, your power reduces at a constant rate depending upon your distance from your attribute planet, right?" Taro asked.
"" No response came from the other side, which made Taro sigh as he took his foot off from the other side.
"Ohh, come on! You really thought that I wouldn't when you used Muscle is justice after all the times that we sparred against each other? Don't act oblivious now, Park! How are you, my friend?" Taro asked with a smug smile on his face.
