Chapter 216: Quote.

''What the fuck does that mean?'' Mathias asked while scratching his head. He was completely lost.

''It means it is part of the nature. You should expect and welcome the death with open arms, not fear and escape from it.''

''So, you have accepted your death?'' Mathias asked with a grinning face.

Ichiro smiled and shook his head, ''No… I had accepted my death a long time ago… I will die. It is something no one can escape from… But.'' He pointed his sword at Mathias and grinned, ''I will die on my own terms, in the embrace of my beautiful wife, not in some sh*t hole.''

Mathias raised an eyebrow, but then Ichiro turned his body towards the spectators.

''Are you guys enjoying the show?!'' Ichiro's roar filled the stadium.

The spectators looked strangely at him.

''Ichiro, shut the fuck up!'' Arkenthym's angry roar came from the VIP Stands, ''Don't ever forget, my men are right in front of your house, waiting for my signal.''

Ichiro innocently smiled, ''I only asked are they enjoying, jeez.''

Arkenthym stood up with a red face, ''Don't push your luck, slave!''

Ichiro snorted. He turned his gaze towards Mathias, 'Chill Ichiro… One day… You need to wait for that day… The day I am strong enough to make him pay.'

Arkenthym snorted and sat down.

Leppercon looked at the scene with amusement.

Mathias cracked his neck, ''Are you done? I am bored. My Amy is probably already waiting for me.''

Amy in the commentator booth had her eyebrow twitching.

Ichiro swung his swords around him with great skill.

Mathias went into a stabbing stance. He went into a very low stance and changed the grip slightly.

He still didn't look serious. He took a decisive step forwards and pushed his sword forwards!

His arm stretched as the tip of the blade started approaching Ichiro's throat.

Ichiro waited till the tip of the blade was close enough. After that, he put his two swords in X formation in front of him.

Mathias' sword clashed with Ichiro's swords, but against all odds…

Ichiro's swords perfectly stopped Mathias' stab!

Mathias looked shocked, he tried to push his sword forwards, but Ichiro's swords didn't even flinch.

[Steel Edge - Sword Universe Stop]

''W-W-What is this?!'' Mathias shouted, he retreated a dozen meters, but then a sword appeared in front of his throat!

[Iron Lance - Stainless-Sword]

Ichiro thrusted his sword forwards, and the tip was almost in contact with Mathias' throat, but with quick reflexes, he managed to dodge it, but only barely.

A small scratch appeared on the side of his neck.

Mathias quickly retreated 50 meters away, with cold sweat pouring on his back.

Everyone in the stadium felt that something was very wrong.

The skill difference shouldn't be this high!

Ichiro was toying with Mathias! It was like he was fighting against a helpless kid.

Lock and Daniel looked with widened eyes. Every move was perfectly executed, and the only reason Mathias isn't dead yet is because Ichiro is making a statement!

Ichiro looked towards Arkenthym and grinned.

Arkenthym narrowed his eyes dangerously. He clenched his fist. He is starting to feel more and more annoyed.

''Are you not afraid that I will send one of my men to have fun with your family?''

Ichiro glared at him, ''You wouldn't dare.''

''Oh, why wouldn't I?'' Arkenthym asked with a grin.

Ichiro grinned viciously, ''If even one of your men touches my family, I will send Abyss after your ass.''

Arkenthym paled, 'This bastard!'

Ichiro snorted. He wishes that he could send Abyss to kill every single Underworld member in Irio, but Arkenthym isn't stupid. He must have made dozens of backup plans, which will ensure that his family would die.

He started walking towards Mathias, who looked like he was in disbelief.

''Impossible…'' Mathias slapped his cheeks, getting back his composure, ''I am stronger… I am stronger!''

He lunged towards Ichiro with his newly found confidence. He did a simple downwards slash, but Ichiro blocked with his sword, but Mathias wasn't done.

He used his leg to send a front kick towards Ichiro's unguarded torso, but he was prepared.

Ichiro put his second sword in front of the foot and blocked it.

''Grrr!'' Mathias tried to push the sword away but didn't manage to do it. Instead, his balance became a mess.

Ichiro used this chance to send his own kick!

He slammed his foot deep inside Mathias' torso.

''AAAAAAAAH!'' Mathias was sent flying a hundred meters away.

He bounced on the ground a few times until his momentum stopped.

Ichiro's body became blurry, and in only a blink of an eye, he appeared 10 meters away from Mathias!

The spectators couldn't believe their eyes while Lock and Daniel's faces became grimmer each passing second.

Mathias angrily stood up, ''FUCKKKKKKKKKKK!'' He swung his sword, hoping to get a lucky hit.

But Ichiro with ease deflected the sword and sent another kick on Mathias' torso.

*CRACK*

Mathias bounced on the ground like a ragdoll and landed only 10 meters away from the edge of the arena!

They traveled the entire arena!

They started from Ichiro's spot, which was also on the edge of the arena.

But, everyone saw the scene differently.

It looked like Ichiro was making fun of this entire tournament.

This is your gold-ranked fighter?

Is this the level of the Underworld tournament?

What a joke!

Public tournaments are harder!

Most of them know who Ichiro is, and it is still vivid in memories when Ichiro fought against Avery. He had to go all-out on that match, and he barely survived!

But now… He is destroying one of the strongest Underworld tournament fighters.

The spectators looked at Ichiro with hate-filled gazes.

How dare he make fun of us?!

''Pfft!'' Mathias coughed a mouthful of blood, he tried to stand up with his shaky legs, but he could barely hold his sword, let alone stand!

Ichiro appeared in front of him. He looked at him like he was an insignificant ant.

''AARHH!'' Mathias swung his sword, but Ichiro's kick landed on Mathias' wrist.

''ARGHHH!'' The sword was sent flying out of the arena as Mathias held his broken wrist.

''Let me help you with that,'' Ichiro said.

Mathias looked at him with a pain-filled gaze, but he also had a questioning face, but then he paled.

Ichiro swung his sword and cut Mathias' arm off!

''AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!'' Mathias fell down on the ground. He held his bleeding arm while rolling in agony.

His blood stained the ground in red, while the arm which was cut off landed in front of the spectators.

They are used to seeing fights to the death, but they screamed like little girls after seeing the arm.

Ichiro put his foot on Mathias' face and pressed with strength.

''UGGHH!'' Mathias' cried in agony. Ichiro's feet broke his nose and made his skull crack.

''Trust me… I don't enjoy doing this. It's nothing personal.'' Ichiro said and pressed even harder, making the ground crack.

''There is a quote I loved. Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone puts his hand on you, send him to the cemetery.'' Ichiro's calm voice echoed in Mathias' ears, but to him… It sounded like the voice of a grim reaper.

''It's time for me to send you to the cemetery,'' Ichiro said and put his feet on Mathias' neck.

''Goodbye.''
