POW POW POW

WHOOSH

Kane peppered Rui with many strikes, evading a wild haymaker smoothly. On the outside, it seemed as though Kane was furiously punishing Rui, determined to win.

Yet unbeknownst to anybody, perhaps even Rui himself, Kane was rather melancholic. He truly hoped Rui had a way to defeat him, but it seemed this wasn't the case. It had been quite some time since the match had begun, yet as time passed by, the odds of victory of Rui seemed to grow dimmer and dimmer.

Rui soon abandoned offense and focused purely on defense, being pushed to the edge bit by bit. Although his defense was solid, not being able to engage in any proactive defense because he couldn't see Kane's attacks meant that even Kane's meagre offense was able to push him back and secure more and more space over time.

BAM!

Kane hit Rui with a powerful pushing kick, shoving him to the edge of the ring.

Kane sighed to himself.

He rushed towards Rui from an unconventional angle with a charged attack and a heavy attack.

Every detail of this fight would reach the ears of his family, one way or another, they had too much influence.

How could he possibly justify not taking this juicy opportunity?
