Leva struggled to get up, and she couldn't do anything when Ivan punched her in the face.
I winced as if I was in pain. Ivan's left fist hit so hard that it made Leva fall. The girl staggered, moving back to the corner of the arena, holding on to the rope.
With a heavy breath, Leva looked at her enemy with a bruised right cheek. The corners of her lips were also bleeding.
"You are one of my greatest opponents, Leva. You can use your intelligence to overcome this physical difference." Ivan walked over to my colonist with his right hand still drooping. "It's an honor for me to be able to fight you. And I will destroy you in return for that honor. Like I said before, this is my way."
Ivan changed his pace to a run, ready to hit Leva again. Desperate, I almost asked Eric to throw in the towel, but suddenly Leva ducked and ran behind Ivan again.
The man immediately turned back, clearly not wanting Leva to climb onto his back a second time.
