Perfect Avatar

The sun was high in the sky, as was the tension in the air as a hero prepared to face a monster on a plain. Everyone was gathered in a corner, and several meters in front of them, the 2 founders of Shining Sword were facing each other.Kraim stood in the middle and was about to give the signal.

"Very well... So this is a battle to determine the future of the Shining Sword team. If the gray-haired snake wins, Shining Sword will be dismantled, the false hero will retire, and many dreams will be crushed... If only someone with just a little compassion, a little love, and a human heart, would certainly have mercy... But who am I kidding?"

"Indeed." Dora nodded indifferently.

Kraim sighed and glanced at Leon with annoyance.

"Well... I'm not a hype man, but it really is suicide. The rules are the same as a traditional mock battle, you use everything in your power, and kill if you want to live a life in prison... Well, even there, the law is fine for royal knights, so... Begin when I'm far enough away." He walked away en trainant le pas.

All eyes were on the two adversaries, Leon with his fierce posture and Dora looking at him curiously.

"Let's fight fair and square, with honor."

"... You call this a fair fight?"

"Haha, yeah, an avatar is always an advantage, but mark my words: Heroes never run away in front of a challenge."

A white aura emerged from his body and he rushed towards Dora, the echo of his words ringing in Hope's ears.

"Take th-URGHT!" He suddenly froze in mid-air, as if he had crashed into a wall.

"That's why they always die in the end."

Dora snapped his fingers and Leon's body rose at high speed into the air and stopped before precipitating to the ground and crashing, creating a small crater.

"... Ridiculous."

Dora turned his back on him, under the stunned eyes of their audience.

He took a few steps when a blade of air brushed his shoulder. He stopped for a moment and turned, only to see Leon getting up.

"Aaah... Aah... Where... Are you going?... I didn't hear any bell."

Dora stared at him, looking very surprised, and suddenly started laughing.

"Ah, yeah... I didn't use my body so of course you didn't break... Ok, I'm taking this a little more seriously now."

He stomped the ground and a black pillar emerged from the ground, under Leon, and hit him right in his stomach.

Leon rose into the air, coughing saliva but quickly regained his composure, took hold of the pillar, and launched himself at Dora.
