An Extra’s POV

"Keuk!"

Billy winced the moment he felt something land on his stomach.

The fist carried so much force that he could already feel a heavy wind pressure before it even touched him.

Fortunately, he had been fast enough to take a step backward, so that mitigated the blow by a considerable degree.

'A-ahh…!'

Billy did his best not to clutch his stomach despite the burning sensation that now swirled on it.

It stung him, to say the least, but he endured the pain.

He also tried to hide his downright shock, but Billy failed woefully at that.

His bloodshot eyes were glued to Rey, who had resumed his standby stance—almost as if prepared to deliver another volley.

'D-did Rey just land a hit… on me?'

Sure, Billy was already aware that he wasn't using any Skills, but his Stats were meant to be superior.

How was Rey able to do something like that?!

'Calm down, Billy. He just got lucky. Yes… I was distracted and he had a lucky score.'

After chalking it down to a fluke, Billy found himself regaining composure.

There was no way Rey could beat him in a thousand years.

'I'm a lot stronger now! I'm among the Top 5 in Alpha Class!'

"Let's try that once again. I wasn't paying enough attention." Billy quickly spoke.

He had been unable to show everyone watching the proper counter to give to the Martial Arts that Rey displayed.

He never thought he would make a blunder, but Billy quickly took it in stride.

'Next time… it won't happen again!'

"Begin!"

As soon as Billy said this, Rey used the same footworks as last time, but he drastically changed the rhythm.

As such, instead of arriving at Billy in six steps, he did so in eight.

'He's too… slow!'
