-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At a bar, a stout man was sipping a glass of beer slowly, clearly enjoying his drink. He seemed calm, but his eyebrows immediately frowned as a small current of wind passed by him, his eyes moving to the previously empty chair next to him, only to see a blond-haired man sitting down.

"I never thought I would find Fangs of Metsudo drinking in a bar.... Life really does have its surprises, doesn't it?"

The stout man in question, was none other than Kanoh Agito, the current Fangs of Metsudo of the Kengan association.

"What does Shigenosuke's descendant want from me?" Finishing his drink, Agito asked disinterestedly.

"You're pretty straightforward." With a smile, the blond man turned out to be Mokichi Robinson, Yuji's current master.

Agito had never met Mokichi, but knew who he was because he watched some of his fights after Katahara Metsudo talked about the ancient martial arts descendant. This got him interested and he decided to research who he was about, leading to finding Mokichi.

"I'm not here to do much, I just wanted to ask you a few questions." Mokichi spoke.

Agito upon hearing his words, squinted his eyes as he stared at the man, suspicion in his expression as he seemed ready for any action from the blond in front of him.

"It's nothing personal, it's about my student." Raising his hands in surrender, Mokichi kept his expression calm as he slowly pulled a cell phone from his pocket.

This clearly confused Agito, who looked at him for answers.

"Your student? What's it to me?" He asked as he frowned, clearly annoyed by that situation.

"Oh? Nothing really, I just wanted to know if you recognize this technique." Placing his cell phone in front of Agito, Mokichi let a video play on the screen.

The video was about the exact moment when Yuji used [Advance] in his fight against Mokichi. Agito, who looked at the video with his usual dull expression, could not stop his forehead from twitching, the man immediately realizing what technique the boy used. While watching the video, he remained silent, but Mokichi realized that he knew something, and although he didn't want to upset him, the form used by his student was something he needed to find out what it was all about.

When the fight was over, the executive who was recording immediately ended the video. Agito continued in silence for a few more seconds, suddenly snapping his finger to get the attention of the bartender, who went toward him quickly.

"Bring another glass of beer."

The bartender immediately did as he was asked, handing the glass of beer to the man a few seconds later. Mokichi remained silent, watching Agito drink with his usual calm expression.

"The name of this technique is Possessing Spirit." Agito finally spoke.

"Possessing Spirit? I've never heard of a technique like that..." Mokichi put a hand to his chin, thoughtful about the name of the technique, trying to remember if he had heard of it anywhere.

"There aren't even 7 users of this technique." Finishing his glass of beer, Agito propped the glass on the table while looking at Mokichi. "It's an extremely harmful technique, even more so for the boy's body, who doesn't even look 18."

"Well, you're right, he is only 15."

Agito, who didn't usually show much expression, widened his eyes slightly, this catching the attention of Mokichi, who couldn't help but widen his smile. Watching the boy fight, Agito believed him to be at least 17, since he demonstrated a proficiency and sense of combat above any average fighter.

"I see." He nodded, his expression dull, but his eyes not failing to show a little interest.

"Well, Mr. Fangs, could you explain to me how this technique harms your body? I wouldn't want to see my student killing himself over time."

Agito didn't answer and just pulled out his watch, looking at the time for a few seconds before turning his attention back to Mokichi.

"I have one condition."

Mokichi just nodded in agreement.

"Let me meet this boy. I would like to see this genius with my own eyes." He cracked a smile full of teeth as he said it, this causing sweat to form on Mokichi's forehead as a powerful pressure exploded from the man's body.

'What a ridiculous giant pressure!'

The streets were completely decorated, people partying with each other happily. Many stalls were scattered all over the place, various people walking back and forth, alone or accompanying. This was the day of the full moon night festival!

Side by side, Yuji and Elena walked together while the girl enjoyed her surroundings with an excited look. The boy was not very interested in the festival, but he kept a cheerful attitude so that Elena would not feel discouraged. That seemed to work, when the girl pulled him all around the place so they could try out the game booths.

"Congratulations, you won! You can choose your prize."

Yuji had a proud expression after winning a game that consisted of knocking down as many targets as possible with a baseball. He did this after seeing that Elena was eyeing a small stuffed rabbit from the stall, and seeing the girl's smile when she hugged the toy made his efforts worthwhile.

As the two walked together, the mood was relaxed, the two just enjoying each other's presence as they headed toward the Musashi Temple.

"Yuji, why did you decide to become a fighter?"

The question was sudden, taking Yuji by surprise and making him cross his arms as he seemed to think about the question.

He used to ask himself this question, especially when he was discouraged with himself. Initially, training was just a means of gaining strength, and later, money. In his old life, growing into a boxing career was just a way for him to get out of his parents' house as quickly as possible. Sure, he loves the feeling of fighting, but he had no motivation beyond that to get stronger and stronger.

But since he came into this world, he has to deal with increasingly dangerous threats, and as a man who loves the feeling of fighting and mainly wants to live quietly with his friends and family, getting stronger and stronger is a must.

"Well... Initially, I didn't have a very big goal beyond making money, but after seeing how dangerous this world is first hand, I decided that I would get stronger in order to live a peaceful life with the people I love." He spoke, cracking a small smile as he looked at the girl.

Elena felt her face warm slightly, a small smile on her lips as she hugged the small rabbit in her arms.

'He's like my brother...' Elena thought fondly, a silly expression on her face as she hugged the stuffed rabbit cuddly.

Yuji chuckled lightly as he saw the girl in that state.

He would be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying his time with Elena, after all, who wouldn't want to go on a date with a girl so beautiful that she could easily fit the phrase, "Too beautiful for her own good."? Only an idiot would not take such a chance.

Arriving at the staircase that led to the musashi temple, Yuji turned to the girl, offering his hand with a smile, this caused the girl to blush and reciprocate with an embarrassed smile, holding the boy's hand while looking away.

As the two were about to start walking up the stairs, Yuji felt a chill run through his entire body, the boy stopping immediately as he looked around frantically.

'What the fuck is that? That killing intent... It's the same as before!' Sweat began to build up on the boy's forehead, him trying to find the source of the intent directed at him that was increasing more and more.

Boom!

The sound of something exploding sounded throughout the place, Yuji turning around quickly enough only to see a blur inches from his body.

"Gah!"

The boy spat out blood as his body was carried by the blur into the forest in the blink of an eye, Elena barely noticing what happened until she missed the feel of Yuji's hand.

"Yuji?" She wondered in confusion, looking around trying to find the boy. She only heard the sound of something popping and suddenly he was no longer beside her. "Where did he go?"

.

.

.

Yuji's body slammed into the trunk of a tree with enough force to shatter him, his back scraping into the earth until he quickly rolled backwards and regained control, getting up while gripping his chest tightly.

'Damn... If I hadn't blocked the attack with my palm, I'd probably barely be able to stand now.'

He coughed blood into the grass at his feet, quickly raising his gaze to see the figure responsible for suddenly attacking him.

"Oh, you were able to defend my fist? How interesting." The figure spoke, a serene smile on his face, but one that Yuji immediately realized was a facade.

"Sorry for bringing you in so suddenly." The figure opened his arms, his long hair swaying on his back as he faced Yuji with his smile, but this time, letting his murderous intent explode. "I couldn't let anyone interrupt what we're about to do!"

'Who is this son of a bitch? He looks familiar.' Yuji stared at the figure with intensity. 'Observe!'

[Status]

Name: Kiryu Setsuna.

Age: 24

Strength: SS+++

Durability: SS+++

Resistance: SSS

Speed: SSS+

Intelligence: SS

Potential: SSS

[State]

Excited/furious/fascinated

Setsuna is fascinated that you were able to defend your attack, excited to play with you for a while and then kill you.

He is furious that you have the same divine form as his god, Ohma Tokita, but is sure that you are just a test sent by his god, to see if he is ready to stand by you.

.

Yuji read the information from the man in front of him with a scowl.

'What a strong bastard... Even if I try to escape, with that ridiculous speed he will catch up with me in seconds.'

He tried to think of something, but no matter how hard he tried, nothing came to his mind. He thought he could persuade him, but from what was written in his status, he was sure that Yuji is some kind of test sent by Ohma. At this moment, he was closer to death than ever, and this served to make his heart beat hard.

Clenching his fist tightly, Yuji cracked a wide smile, the adrenaline coursing through his body serving to cheer him up as he stared at Setsuna.

'If I can't find a way, just make my own way.'

"You son of a bitch... You'll pay..." Yuji let all the murderous intent he could muster escape from his body in an instant, this surprising Setsuna for a moment, before the man sketched a maniacal grin. "For interrupting my fucking date."

'I have no intention of dying in a place like that, much less for someone like you.'

The boy raised his fists, his eyes glittering dangerously as he stared at Setsuna with pure killing intent escaping his body.

"How beautiful! It's a shame you have to die!" Setsuna hugged his body as he trembled with excitement, a completely mad smile on his lips as he looked at Yuji with a blush on his cheeks.

"!"

In the blink of an eye, Setsuna disappeared leaving only a trace in the air, Yuji immediately activating his [Divine Eyes] in time enough to see a fist inches from his face.

Boom!
