When a Genius Pushes a Monster

Chapter 83: When a Genius Pushes a Monster

🔥 Aether Academy – Training Grounds, Midnight.

💀 The entire academy was asleep. 💀

But here, in the silent battlefield—two monsters were fighting.

Kozuki Renjou – The Demon of Aether.Rei Kurogane – The Genius Who Refuses to Lose.

🔥 Rei had trained for two months for this moment. 🔥

And now—he was pushing Kozuki harder than anyone ever had.

Kozuki's Perspective – The First Time He's Been Pressured

💥 BOOM! 💥

🔥 Rei struck again.

A feint to Kozuki's left.A lightning-fast spin kick.A follow-up knee—aimed at his ribs.

💥 WHOOSH! 💥

🔥 Kozuki dodged—but just barely.

💀 He's getting closer. 💀

Kozuki wasn't just reacting—he was being forced to react.

Rei wasn't just predicting him.Rei wasn't just keeping up.Rei was controlling the fight.

🔥 Tch… this is actually fun. 🔥

Kozuki smirked.

Kozuki (thinking, amused): It's been a while since someone made me sweat.

Rei's Perspective – The Hunt Continues

🔥 I'm finally keeping up with him.

Two months ago, Kozuki was untouchable.Two months ago, Rei couldn't do anything against him.Two months ago, he was weak.

But now—

💀 Kozuki is struggling. 💀

🔥 That means I'm doing something right. 🔥

💥 BOOM! 💥

🔥 Rei attacked again.

A low feint—baiting Kozuki to counter.A twisting elbow—redirecting mid-air.A precise strike—aimed straight at Kozuki's chin.

💥 BANG! 💥

🔥 It connected.

The Moment Kozuki Realized – This Kid is Dangerous

🔥 A clean hit.

Kozuki's head snapped back.His balance wavered.His vision blurred for half a second.

💀 No one has ever hit me like that. 💀

Kozuki felt the sting on his jaw.

💥 WHOOSH! 💥

🔥 Rei didn't stop.

Another strike.A kick to Kozuki's ribs.A final knee to finish him.

Kozuki blocked—just in time.

💥 BOOM! 💥

🔥 A shockwave exploded between them. 🔥

Both fighters jumped back, breathing heavily.

For the first time—Kozuki looked serious.For the first time—Rei was smiling.

Kozuki (grinning, wiping his mouth): "Heh. You really aren't the same guy from two months ago."

Rei (smirking, steadying his stance): "Of course not. You paid for my training, after all."

🔥 The Demon and the Genius stood at a standstill. 🔥

💀 For the first time in Kozuki's life—he was being pushed to his limits. 💀

The Final Clash – Neither Can Win

💥 BOOM! 💥

🔥 They charged at each other one last time.

Kozuki's overwhelming power.Rei's perfect counters.A battle where neither had the upper hand.

💀 For the first time, Kozuki wasn't leading the fight. 💀

💥 WHOOSH! 💥

🔥 A brutal exchange of blows.

A punch from Kozuki—Rei dodged.A counterstrike from Rei—Kozuki deflected.A final strike—both of them landing a hit.

💥 BANG! 💥

🔥 Both of them collapsed.

The Aftermath – A Draw Between Two Monsters

Rei lay on the ground, panting.Kozuki sat up, wiping sweat off his forehead.The fight was over—but neither had won.

Kozuki (laughing, exhausted): "Damn. You actually made me go all out."

Rei (smirking, breathless): "Yeah? And you still couldn't beat me."

🔥 Neither had won—but neither had lost either. 🔥

💀 Aether Academy now had two monsters. 💀
