Inevitable Outcome
" You all are being noisy " Complained with a hoarse voice, Laure, appearing sleep-deprived, surveyed the arena where Sasuke fought against five adversaries: a giant, a swordsman, a person in a tracksuit, a blue-haired and a black-haired kid. In the distance, two figures, a girl and someone in a leotard, hurried to regroup with the opponents.
'I just need to take care of this Lizard it seems' Laure thought, observing Anaak's impending attack.
"Hey, Sleepyhead, handle those two!" Sasuke shouted, giving a thumbs up. Laure became perplexed, wondering why Sasuke referred to 'two' individuals.
"Don't tell me..." Laure evaded the Lizard's attack and swiftly turned around, only to notice one of the cloaked figures heading toward the Throne. Without giving much time to think, Anaak enlarged the Green April and struck Laure. He could only dodge and fire aimlessly with Shinsu Canon to keep the cloaked figure at bay.
Sasuke refocused on the opponents who had regrouped, excluding the two side characters, Anaak, and the cloaked figure. He no longer intended to toy with them and decided to use his only revealed move.

" Get ready, that bastard is using that" shouted Khun, warning everyone of the incoming attack.
Despite mentally preparing for it, everyone's faces displayed grimness as they faced an attack that was ten times more potent than the previous time Sasuke used it.
"We knew it was coming," said Shibisu, his voice filled with resignation. "But this... this is on a whole different level."
Moments before the flames engulfed them, a thought crossed their minds, ' Shit … ' and they disappeared. The flames persisted for a few seconds, preventing anyone from seeing the condition of the opposing party.
After a brief pause, Sasuke sensed something amiss. He used his Rinnegan to peer into the sea of flames, only to see the Giant Humanoid poised to throw something at him. Sasuke evaded in suspicion, but as he glanced at the object passing by, he was left speechless. It was the briefcase Khun carried around. Instantly, he understood these bastards' plan. His conjecture was confirmed when seven figures emerged from the briefcase as it approached the platform.
Without hesitation, six of the seven figures launched their attacks at Ho on the Throne, who was genuinely terrified. He wondered if this would be his last day in the Tower. Just as their attacks were about to land, a faint voice echoed.
[Chidori: Senbon]
* Sphhhlt* * Sphhhlt* * Sphhhlt* * Sphhhlt* *Sphhhlt* * Sphhhlt* ….
Suddenly, all six attackers were pierced by lightning needles in various parts, immobilizing them without causing fatal injuries. They couldn't believe, he would react this fast, and that too pulling a new move out of nowhere. It isn't something a Regular could do. They could only lay helpless on the floor.
"Can you believe it? Is this guy a Regular like us?" Endorsi jeered, turning to the others.
" Shut up," Khun snapped, staring up at the ceiling with a deadpan expression. He couldn't help but question his entire existence at this moment. Never before had he been so humiliated by someone his age.
"Phew, I got tricked by these bastards. Thank goodness I reacted quickly," Sasuke murmured, lowering his right palm relieved. He shifted his attention to the relentless Giant, who launched another attack. He didn't seem to give up anytime soon.
"Why don't you give up? You seriously think you can defeat me?" Indifferently Sasuke asked as he effortlessly evaded the Giant's attacks,
The Giant abruptly halted and gazed silently towards the Throne. There, he witnessed a hooded figure leaping from the platform with a dagger aimed at Ho. During her movement, her cloak slipped, revealing her face. Baam, who had been observing Laure as per Khun's request, was shocked upon seeing Rachel under the cloak, preparing to strike Ho. From the corner of his eye, Baam noticed Laure evading and using the same Shinsu Beam to attack Rachel.
Without hesitation, Baam jumped in front of Rachel, taking the full force of the attack. Meanwhile, Ho effortlessly slapped the shit out of Rachel with her sudden attack. Both Baam and Rachel were hit by the blast and fell from the platform.
A sense of déjà vu washed over Sasuke. He tried to warn Laure to protect Ho and rushed towards the platform, but it was too late.
*BOOOOOM*
All those present, including Leoro-ro and the Regulars confined in their cages, witnessed a brilliant burst of gold light radiating from Baam, enveloping half of the arena in a shimmering, golden-hued Shinsu. Sasuke didn't perceive this Shinsu as a threat; instead, it felt like a revitalizing breeze. However, the issue resided in what Sasuke alone observed within the domain of the golden Shinsu using his Rinnegan. After what it looks like Time froze, He witnessed the Spirit of Blackmarch materialize and lull Baam into slumber, then turn towards him, winking mischievously before vanishing.
"Man, how is this even possible?" Sasuke dryly smiled, realizing a monumental twist or an inevitable outcome. He hadn't anticipated something like this. Although it seemed like a significant amount of time had passed, it had all happened in an instant.
Once the dust settled, everyone had a clear view of six injured figures and a bleeding Baam lying atop the unscathed Rachel. The pitiful Ho, their primary target, lay beneath the Throne, severely injured. No trace of the crown remained; it seemed to have vanished.
Leoro-Ro descended into the arena from above while looking at everything skeptically
" B-Baam, Baam, w-wake up … Baam ! " Rachel could be seen with tears in her eyes and trying to wake up him.
Sasuke looked at her with disgust, while moving past her to help the near-dead Ho.
…..
After that incident later that day, Leoro-Ro made an announcement stating there is no winner since the crown was destroyed, and Ho fell from the throne within five minutes.
And due to the injuries sustained by the majority of participants, the Test Director granted a five-day break for everyone.
…..
Inside Evankhell's mothership, the Infirmary,
Laure observed the unconscious and mummified Ho, "Three days have passed, and it seems he is dead."
"Then we should look for a new teammate," Sasuke replied calmly. He glanced out the window, enjoying the view from above. Since the crown game ended, nobody approached or initiated a conversation with him, except Laure. He didn't dwell on losing the game but took it as a valuable experience.
" It's not like they can do anything to me, at least in the open. " a smirk could be seen from the corner of his mouth.
During the past three days, Sasuke dedicated himself to intense training, pushing his body to its limits. He tirelessly practiced various movements, throwing punches and kicks from different angles, even if they were somewhat clumsy. However, this effort allowed him to understand his present physical boundaries and abilities. Now, he only needs to reorganize his skills and become accustomed to his newly acquired powers.
In the end, Sasuke felt rejuvenated, as if he were reborn. He no longer intends to avoid challenges; instead, he eagerly anticipates visiting every level of the tower and facing formidable opponents. Perhaps there will be moments when he might consider running away, but his determination to confront the powerful figures remains unwavering.
