Lucifer watched a fist come towards his face. The attack was fast, but he seemed prepared for whatever was coming towards him. He wasn't scared of getting punched once.
He wanted to block the attack, but he knew that he couldn't. It was too fast. Still, he raised his hand to protect his face while balancing his body for the impact. In front of Yaliza's speed, his movement speed seemed slower indeed.
It was just as he expected; he wasn't able to block the attack in time. The attack was just about to land on Lucifer's face, but it didn't.
Just when Yaliza's fist was within an inch distance from Lucifer's face, it stopped.
Lucifer had already braced himself for the impact. He didn't expect something different. There was no way that Yaliza was going to lose this opportunity, but it didn't happen like that.
Instead, Yaliza did just that. He didn't take this opportunity since he knew that Lucifer already expected this attack. He wanted to shock and overwhelm Lucifer.
Before his attack could land on Lucifer's face, he disappeared and appeared behind Lucifer.
Spinning his body around, he kicked the ribs of Lucifer with incredible strength.
Lucifer, who was expecting an attack on his face, was stunned as his ribs were attacked. The completely unexpected attack shocked him.
He had balanced his body for backward momentum, but the attack came from the side, destroying his balance like a kid destroying a tower of cards.
His body flew away, crashing on the wall. Lucifer held his chest, feeling like a few of his bones were broken.
"You learned a lot about fighting but not all. If a person wants to defeat an opponent, they should attack where the opponent least expects it," Yaliza reminded Lucifer.
"Sometimes, you need to sacrifice smaller opportunities to have bigger ones."
"I'm sorry for attacking you that brutally. But I know you have healing. And I don't have super strength. So I gave it my all," he further added.
Cough! Cough!
Lucifer coughed out a mouthful of blood as he rubbed his chest.
"That was a good one," he told Yaliza.
Using his left hand, he wiped the blood off his lips.
"One each. The final point since it's the best of three. My turn to go first," Lucifer reminded Yaliza as he patted his clothes.
"Be my guest," Yaliza said, smiling.
....
Boom! Boom!
Many booming noises filled the tunnel, disturbing the sleep of Cassius.
Cassius slowly opened his eyes, wondering what was happening.
"Lucifer? Who is he fighting?" Cassius muttered, confused.
He could see Lucifer facing someone, but the other person's back was facing him.
"He's fighting Yaliza," Uzuki informed Cassius.
Cassius looked beside him, finding Uzuki sitting there, eating an apple.

"Why are they fighting?" Cassius asked, confused. It didn't seem like it was a friendly battle as both Yaliza and Lucifer were brutally attacking.
Moreover, it wasn't a practice battle from what it seemed. The two of them were seriously trying to hurt the other person.
"I have no idea. I woke up only five minutes before you. These two were making so much noise. I'm surprised you woke up so late," Uzuki replied, shaking his head.
"As for that girl, she is still sleeping. Just how deep is her sleep?' he asked.
"She should be up soon as well. But that's not important. What's important is that we need to stop them," Cassius reminded Uzuki, standing up.
"Sit down. Don't you see? Lucifer isn't using his lightning or wind blades? Similarly, Yaliza isn't using any serious attacks either."
"Their battle is certainly serious, but none of them want to kill another person. It should be a friendly battle that is a little more professional," Uzuki replied, stopping Cassius.
"Ah, that's right. I didn't notice that. None of them are using their powerful skills. They're fighting like ordinary warriors," Cassius commented, realizing that Uzuki was right.
Just as Cassius finished speaking, Lucifer's kick landed on Yaliza's chest, making him fly back.
Mid-air, Yaliza balanced his body and landed on the ground safely, only to realize that his right hand was grabbed by Lucifer, who used that grip to bring his arm in a lock.
...
One hour passed, and the third round of Lucifer's battle with Yaliza was still continuing. Both of them were giving it their all, but none of them was willing to give up.
It was at that point when Alicia also woke up. Cassius informed her about what was happening.
"Both of you! Enough! Are you forgetting that we were here on a mission? Stop acting like kids! How will you hurt the enemies when you are hurting each other before getting to them?" Alicia yelled, jumping in the middle of Lucifer's battle.
"It was just a practice battle. Nothing serious," Lucifer told Alicia.
"I know it was a practice battle, but it was going overboard. You two already wasted over an hour in this practice battle!"
"This is enough! We're not here on a picnic! We're here on a mission! Stop wasting time! We need to catch up with Hunter Union as well," Alicia retorted.
"Alright. That will be the end of the battle. Let's call this third round a draw," Yaliza chimed in, agreeing with Alicia. In any case, he was already close to being defeated.
Unlike Lucifer, he didn't have infinite stamina. He was already struggling to last so long. Alicia came in at just the right time. Yaliza was sure that he wouldn't have lasted for ten more minutes.
Lucifer had his healing which removed his tiredness. His wounds also healed immediately. Yaliza wasn't so lucky.
"A draw it is," Lucifer agreed.
"Everyone up?" he asked, looking around.
"We've been up for over an hour," Uzuki replied, approaching Lucifer.
"Let's leave then."
...
"These gates... If I'm not wrong, this should be the end of this Dungeon. If Hunter Union is inside this Dungeon, they should be behind these doors." Standing before massive golden doors, Lucifer theorized.
"Not if. I think it's certain that they're behind these doors," Yaliza agreed. "I see footsteps here. Most of them went ahead; none returned so far. So they should still be there."
"From these footsteps, it's easy to guess that there are more than twenty of them. So be careful and don't get hit. It's going to be a difficult battle," he added.
"So, do we have any plans? Or just go in and attack anything that moves?" Uzuki asked.
"The plan is simple. I'll take care of Zeiss and Zaria. You will delay the others. After taking care of the two of them, I'll join you," Lucifer answered.
