Chapter 218 - The Round World!
With the speed that could no longer be described with human standards, Mario and Dario dashed towards their respective targets.
Meanwhile, upon seeing them move, Damian and Burge also didn't sit idly as they retreated as fast as they could. In an instant, the two arrived near each other.
They stood behind each other's back as they braced themselves for the incoming Mario and Dario.
At one corner, Dexter was already convulsing while white foams kept on sprouting out of his mouth.
Emon was laughing hysterically inside him upon seeing the scene unfold right before his eyes. He was secretly glad and was even hoping for mutual destruction between the two parties. He wouldn't include himself of course. That's why after the arrival of the twin, he no longer acted and opted to watch on the sidelines. 'Kekeke! You guys should just kill each other. That way, my father would be proud of me and will bestow me with even greater power.'
He then took a glance at the convulsing Dexter and he couldn't help but scrunched his brows in displeasure, he did it without the others noticing of course. 'Tsk! Pathetic! You couldn't even manage to take another one with you to hell. You should just stay there and die already.'
"Take this! Round 1: Eat my World!" Mario shouted as he soars high in the sky before throwing the Shot Put ball down like a meteor towards Burge's head.
He noticed before that Burge was stronger than Damian as the latter would always follow the former's order. He was also aware of Emon's strength and for this guy to be able to fight him 'equally', 'this guy must be strong' is what he was thinking.
'Well, Emon-kun is a little shy and timid after all, so he might have not taken the fight seriously.' Mario concluded.
He aimed the 'The Round World' towards Burge in order for the latter to confront him and not his brother. He knew that his brother, Dario was weaker than him, hence he doesn't want him to get hurt by needlessly fighting strong opponents.
Using the handle of the glossy sword, Burge deflected the incoming shot put ball away. However, due to the strength alone, his arms shook along with the glossy sharp sword. He was even worried for a second that the glossy sword might break due to the vibrations.
Phew!
He heaves a sigh of relief upon seeing that the sword was able to hold out. 'That shot put ball was so damn heavy!'
"Do your best!" He said as he dashed towards the descending Mario to confront him.
"You too!" Damian replied as he also parried the incoming Discuss with the handle of his glossy sword.
"Eat this! Round 1: Flat World's Descent!"
'Tsk! What's with these two? They're shouting their moves as if they were in anime or novels. It's distracting me a bit!' Damian scrunched his brow as he somehow saw himself shouting the moves he was about to do.
'It seems cool?'
"P. Punch-!?"
He said clumsily imitating the way the two were shouting their moves. However, due to it being his first time, he bit his tongue recklessly as the next words after the 'punch' went into oblivion.
"Ha. Ha. Ha. So you are a man of culture as well! Then you must also be strong like me. Omoshiroi!"
(Omoshiroi= Interesting, fascinating, amazing, etc.)
"What's your name Ojisan?"
(Ojisan= Uncle)
"Tsk! You can call me Damian"
"So it is Damian-san! Ha. Ha. Ha. Get ready Damian-san, I won't hold back even more knowing that you are strong, just like me and nii-san!"
"Come! I won't hold back either Dario kiddo!"
And with that, Dario retrieved the discuss before spreading his two feet wide apart. He continued with a horse stance before shouting heavily as if he was pumping his concealed power.
Seeing him do that, Damian was also tempted. And with an awkward motion, he also did the same.
"HAAAHH..."
Burge and Mario were forced to stop their fight as they turned their heads towards the two.
"Hmmm. Omoshiroi! You… my strong opponent. What is your name! Though it won't be important anymore as you would be killed and be forgotten after this battle. Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha." Mario pointed at Burge while holding the shot put ball with one hand.
"Hmmph! I don't have a name, all of my friends call me 'handsome'! Dieee!"
Burge didn't waste time talking with this strange man anymore as he directly sprinted towards him before swinging a huge fist.
Boom!
Mario saw the fist clearly and instead of dodging, he used 'The Round World' to block the attack.
"Shameless! if you are 'handsome' with that face, then you must call me an 'Angel' instead of Mario!"
A dull sound could be heard as Burge's fist hit the shot put ball in Mario's hand.
"Fuck! What the hell is that thing made of?"
Burge shouted in anger as he endured the pain he received upon punching that shot put ball.
That shot put ball is rusted but I doubt it was still an ordinary shot put ball with that size and hardness. Even though it looks rusted like what a normal metal would be before and after the outbreak, it was actually a mutated weapon.
"Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. Now you are interested in knowing my weapon? So be it… I will tell you the origin of my 'The Round World'."
"Once upon a time-"
"Fuck… tell me directly no need for backstories."
"Hmmph… So impatient! Alright then, you must want to know its origin so badly."
Mario harrumphed loudly before raising the shot put ball with one hand towards his chin.
"This 'The Round World' of mine was a weapon that came directly from the tail of a mutated monitor lizard. It was supposed to have spikes, but I shaved it off as it doesn't look cool with that. After shaving it off, look at what I've got. It is a perfect weapon with a flawless appearance."
"Ahh… How nostalgic. I was blinded and mystified by its perfect appearance, and ever since then, I called this ultimate weapon as…"
"The Round World."
