(POV Alexander)
...when I get into the ring, a somewhat strange and annoying presentation of the guy in the mask is heard on the spot. I wanted to object that I had been quite contained in my fights, but… remembering the 5 dying Mercenaries on the ground, maybe not many believed that.
 
Right away, my opponent also goes into the ring. If I had to describe him, then I would say he was like a tanned Tanimoto with a slightly darker aura… well, I don't know if they both really look alike or just all men have started to look very similar to each other to me.
 
Perhaps my lack of interest in trying to recognize them and pay more attention to them is becoming quite a severe habit. Although... curiously, that does not worry me too much.
 
Either way, he seemed like a pretty serious person who didn't smile much...
 
"You... you are not very lucky, are you?"
 
"..."
 
Well, looking at him, I could only think about that. He should be unlucky enough to end up on the same block as me… where the bald man and the old man were. Also, it might sound a bit presumptuous and I don't want to admit it, but… I should also qualify as a bad opponent for others, right?
 
“…No, I chose to have a fight with you. Besides, once I defeat you, then I will also fight against the other disciple of the Ryozanpaku by sure... well, as long as he also reaches the final "
 
"…I see. You are one of those guys who thinks that overcoming difficult situations he will improve and become stronger... or you are simply a masochist"
 
If he was a disciple of someone with the [Hero] ability, thinking that way was very likely, right? Well, he will learn the hard way that it is not always possible to overcome something with just effort and will. And I'm not saying it precisely because of my fight against him...

 
"You know, even if you beat me and managed to also defeat the bald man who will surely be the next opponent in this block, I think it is impossible that you could defeat the old man."
 
Yes, the biggest barrier on this block was none other than that damn geezer... I don't even feel that I have a 10% chance to could defeat him... and that's considering if I use all the things at my disposal on the fight.
 
“No, I know that it is impossible for me to defeat that old man. After I defeat you, the two people you mentioned will be disqualified..."
 
"..."
 
Shit! That is so unfair!! Why don't they disqualify them now?! At least the damn old man, please!!
 
“If I win… they won't be disqualified, right? "
 
"..."
 
...I don't know if he bothered because I tell him that I would defeat him, or his silence was due to not even wanting to bother answering a rather obvious question. That irritated me a little more… damn tournament rigged!
 
"You wonder why I wanted to fight you, right?"
 
"…no, the truth is no. I do not mind that"
 
"..."
 
Whether he wanted to fight me or it was his luck that things turned out this way did not matter, in the end, I would win regardless of the reason why we are fighting.
 
I probably should have explained things better... now he was looking at me with a frown, which was probably an indication that he was very annoyed given his rather expressionless demeanor.
 
“…I wanted to fight you because there was something that bothered me when I saw you fight. You seem to be quite ruthless, but… in the end, you don't have the guts to take the last step.
 
You're just a hypocrite... even if you want to pretend otherwise, you don't have the resolution to kill someone"
 
"Are you... are you serious?"
 
The boy doesn't seem to take my words into account and ends up telling me about the problem he had with me… well, we practically just met, so I was hoping he would say something silly... like he dislikes me being handsome and a great person... things like that.
 
While I had no hope for it to be a good reason, this was… probably something I didn't expect to hear. This is no longer entered what would be an unwarranted resentment! The guy was accusing me of not being ruthless enough… and that somehow bothered him!
 
…Well, this problem was not too bad maybe. If you look at it in a positive light, he was praising me for being a good person, right? I couldn't get too mad about it.
 
The thing was…
 
"I will show you what a ruthless person really is like... that martial arts were made to take down enemies more efficiently, not something to treat as a game!"
 
The problem was... maybe this guy believed himself to be the personification of the word cruelty. As he spoke and took a Mue Tai- style fighting stance, he released a rather oppressive aura… you could even detect a bit of killing intent in his gaze.
 
"Ha-Hahahaha ..."
 
"..."
 
I could only react by involuntarily laughing at this whole situation. I didn't want to make fun of him, but... probably if he didn't react in this way, the alternative was to take a gun and shoot him and end his annoying misunderstanding... this was a bit like those scenes where a strong-looking character who boasts of being brave ends up being defeated with a single blow in an unexpected way.
 
Probably annoying, he plunges at me trying to hit me with various techniques of Mue Thai... also, several of his attacks went directly to areas where it would be dangerous if one of those blows were to hit me.

If the Mue Tai was already aggressive enough, this style he displayed could be considered murderous. Unfortunately for him, all of his attacks were blocked by me [ Seikuken ] without much effort. While one of the reasons was because I was stronger than him, it was also because I had seen this style before.
 
…Previously, before the school trip, I had learned this style from Apa. At first he refused a lot to teach me that, but after taking him and sneaking us into the zoo so he could hug various animals, Apa ended up agreeing.
 
Yes, well... I must admit that learning this style of Muay Thai from him was quite scary and did not compare to the difficulty of having to bribe him... those days I think I was several times so close to death for quite some time that even some abilities of mine had risen on rank by that.
 
So, if we compare the two of them, fighting this guy was probably only slightly more difficult than walking in a park.
 
" Kuuh!!"
 
" You, it seems you have misunderstood something..."
 
After taking advantage of an opening in his movements, I hit him with my elbow under his chin causing him to withdraw several steps back. So being several meters apart, I decide to undo the misunderstanding he had about me... after all, I don't know if I will have a chance to clarify this later.
 
Yes, the impression he had on me could only be a huge misunderstanding... although, it probably wasn't entirely his fault either. Because I had promised not to kill anyone in this world, when I fought, I would mentalize myself with that idea in mind… therefore, there was no killing intent in my movements. Even it went so the day yesterday while I torturing a little those mercenaries.
 
But if I'm honest, I had a slightly different point of view than this guy. Rather than respect or fear someone who could torture a person to death while having a strong killing intent... the truth is that I would be more scared to see someone do it happily without there being a desire to kill in him.
 
...a person like that could only be considered as someone very, very crazy.
 
If you ask, no, I didn't consider myself crazy. While I had tortured those mercenaries a bit without showing killing intent, I had no intention of killing them from the start. Also, not that I enjoyed it… you could say it was a bit of something justified… maybe.
 
While the boy observed me with more suspicion because he had not been able to hit me, I decided to release my killing intent... and when I do, the oppression that was felt a little in the environment disappears. No, rather I stop feeling it because this time it was replaced by my killing intent.
 
While this was a bit different than my domain, against innocent people it is perhaps even more effective in oppressing them. Unlike my domain where it probably felt like gravity was getting stronger making it difficult for the other person to move, a strong killing intent was perhaps akin to having someone´s hands squeeze your neck trying to suffocate you.
 
…And the stronger the killing intent, the stronger this feeling.
 
As for how to gain and increase this one, that is something quite easy... you just have to kill. And the more things you kill, the stronger a person's killing intent will be. Also, probably because when you kill a person something in you seems to change, the effect of killing humans is even greater.
 
If you ask me, I think that the mind of a person who kills another breaks a little when he does so... something akin to madness, but not entirely madness.
 
And yes, something inside my mind was probably broken long ago. I was fully aware of that... I probably couldn't be considered a normal person anymore. My only consolation was that I had mentally prepared myself a bit when I decided that, in this life, I would surely take the lives of many people.
 
"..."
 
"What's happening? Are you afraid of me now?
 
...or do you now want to hold on to the thought that I was a hypocrite and avoid the truth? "
 
"Y-You... how many people have you killed?"
 
“ Well... I don't know, I don't have a hobby of keeping score, you know? It's not like I'm a serial killer~"

[Yes ... you would probably now be considered a mass murderer?]

...that may be true, Aurora. But it doesn't help!
 
When I release my killing intent, the body of the boy in front of me freezes, his eyes wander from one side to the other trying to avoid my gaze, several beads of cold sweat formed on his face, and it seemed that he could not even breathe. So after what seems like a lot of effort, he somehow manages to be able to ask that question.
 
Well… I've killed quite a bit in the world of Saeko and the other girls there. Several people, but above all... many... many zombies. If I don't kill 100 thousand of them with my bare hands, at least a few tens of thousands yes. Also, even though it couldn't be considered the same as killing a person, having to kill something like zombies isn't much different, right?

 
You still have to see their faces every time you cut or smash their heads... maybe the only good thing is that knowing that if you don't, you will end up being food for them. So that makes it much easier.
 
…So most likely the killing intent of Yami's Masters couldn't even be compared to mine. It was not surprising that the boy froze upon feeling this.
 
“…You know why I didn't kill those mercenaries? It was for two reasons.
 
The first, a promise not to kill people in this world... well, you probably don't understand that and consider it the ravings of a madman, it doesn't matter.
 
As for the second reason, it was simply because it wasn't necessary. Those guys would no longer be considered a threat to me in the future. It had no meaning that I took their lives. "
 
As I get closer to him, he seems to try to back away by forcing his body to move, but to his misfortune, he can't move even a little. Soon I am within a few steps' distances of him.
 
“It's funny how you accused me of being a hypocrite for not having killed a person, but... it doesn't seem like you've killed someone yet. You are like a rabbit making fun of an elephant for having big ears.
 
I wonder if your annoyance with me is because my actions reminded you of yourself? It was probably something like that, right? Unfortunately for you, I had to kill many people before. I am not the same as you."
 
The reason why my killing intent affected him so much was because of that. To put it simply, this guy was accusing me of being what he practically was...
 
“G-Get away… y-you're crazy! Stay away from me!! "
 
"..."
 
It seems that this time he manages to move... but contrary to expectations, I think it was because I caused him enough fear that he himself suppressed the feeling he felt for my killing intent that prevented him from moving. I don't know whether to praise him for that...
