Chapter 19: Awaken

Chapter 19: Awaken

Sho and Kyoko lunged at Joe simultaneously, their attacks swift and precise. Sho swung his fist toward Joe's chest while Kyoko aimed a powerful kick at his side. But before their attacks could land, Joe simply raised a single finger.

Boom!

A sudden, invisible force erupted from his fingertip, sending Sho and Kyoko flying backward like ragdolls. They crashed into the hard cave walls with immense force, the impact causing cracks to form in the stone.

Sho groaned, pushing himself up with his trembling arms. Kyoko coughed, struggling to regain her breath. They had barely even touched him... and yet, with just one finger, he had completely overwhelmed them.

Joe tilted his head, sighing in disappointment. "Pathetic. I expected more, but I guess you're just another failure." His expression darkened as he took slow, deliberate steps toward Sho. "No matter. I'll kill you first."

Sho's vision blurred as he looked up at Joe, who was now looming over him like an executioner. The overwhelming aura Joe released felt suffocating. His body refused to move—no matter how much he tried, his strength was failing him.

Then, suddenly—

Wake up.

Sho's eyes widened. A voice echoed in his mind, deep and ancient. It was neither friendly nor hostile, but commanding, as if it had spoken through countless generations.

Awaken.

Sho's heart pounded. His body trembled, not from fear, but from something else—something he couldn't understand.

Joe smirked, raising his hand, fingers curled like a claw. "Goodbye, little insect."

Sho clenched his fists. His breath quickened.

And then—

"Awaken."

The moment the word left his lips, the entire cave trembled.

A blinding golden aura erupted from Sho's body, the pressure of his energy surging like a violent storm. The cave walls shook, pebbles and debris lifting into the air from the sheer force of his awakening.

Joe took a step back, momentarily surprised, his eyes narrowing. "Oh?"

Kyoko, still struggling to stand, gasped as her vision cleared. The energy radiating from Sho was overwhelming. Her breath hitched as she activated her power to analyze his energy level.

Power Level: 40,000.

Her eyes widened in shock. How?!

Sho, who had barely been standing moments ago, was now engulfed in a golden aura, his power surging like never before. It was unbelievable. His strength had doubled in an instant.

Joe, now intrigued, let out a low chuckle. "Interesting... You were nothing a moment ago, and now you're almost at my level." He cracked his knuckles. "This might actually be fun."

Sho, now feeling an energy he had never experienced before, clenched his fists, his eyes glowing with fierce determination. The fear that had once gripped him was gone—replaced by something far stronger.

Confidence.

Without hesitation, he dashed forward, his speed now nearly matching Joe's. The ground beneath him cracked with every step.

Joe barely had time to react as Sho's fist crashed into his arm, forcing him back for the first time.

Joe grinned. "Not bad."

The battle had truly begun.

Sho and Joe exchanged rapid blows, each punch sending shockwaves through the cave. Their fists clashed, creating bursts of energy that lit up the darkness.

Kyoko watched in disbelief. Sho... he's really fighting evenly with Joe...

But she knew one thing—Sho's awakened power only lasted for 20 minutes.

Would that be enough?

The fight for the Azure Crystal had begun.
