While going through the tunnel to the stadium, Leon's mind kept wandering back to the show of power Nathan displayed.
For some reason, Leon could tell that Mr. Pepe was around his age. Yet the gap between their abilities was as big as heaven and earth.
"I'm still too weak."
Leon didn't know why, but he felt that he needed to be stronger than Mr. Pepe no matter what.
Remembering the feeling he felt from Mr. Pepe's pressure, Leon believed that he will become an unstoppable calamity.
"I need to surpass him."
For the first time in his life, Leon set someone as his goal to surpass.
Wooooooooo-
"But first I need to win this match."
Looking at the mana barrier that covered the arena, Leon's expression turned determined.
