Holder of Magia Erebea Starting in HxH

"Shall we begin the fight, you savage?" - Touta smiled as he directed Ken, feeling excited to test this new power.

"Wait," Ken said, lifting one of his bandaged feet for Touta to see. "Didn't I tell you I'd also teach you Shundo?"

"I forgot for a moment," Touta smiled, rubbing his head with a foolish grin. He was so eager to fight after gaining Nen that he had forgotten Ken's promise to teach him Shundo.

"Good grief, you're really careless," Ken said. "The trick lies in how you apply Nen to the soles of your feet."

"..." Touta stared at Ken, his eyes glinting slightly. He was skilled at learning, able to master combat techniques easily after seeing them just once.

Soon, Ken used Shundo and began moving across the arena like a ghost, disappearing and reappearing in different places.

"So fast..." Kuroumaru muttered, unable to follow Ken's movements with his eyes.

Unlike Kuroumaru, Touta could see Ken's movements clearly, not missing a thing. He noticed how Ken needed only one step to cover 5 meters.

"Did you see? This is the real Shundo," Ken said proudly. Although he wasn't the best at executing Shundo, he was far from average. "Though it's said there's another level of Shundo that allows you to kick the air, I've never seen anyone use it before."

"I see... Shundo seems deeper than I expected," Touta said. He reinforced his feet with Nen, just as Ken had done, and tried using Shundo.

Though he didn't execute it as perfectly as Ken, he managed to cover 7 meters in a single step.

'As expected, that kid's a monster,' Ken thought, seeing how Touta had surpassed him after just one demonstration.

"Well then, let's begin the fight," Ken said with a savage smile, unable to contain his excitement at fighting a monster like Touta.

"Absolutely!" Touta grinned, taking a fighting stance, though it was full of openings.

'Is he an amateur in combat arts?' Ken wondered, feeling that Touta's talent was being wasted. If he had Touta's talent, he would have stood at the top of the world long ago. 'Well, it doesn't matter now. It's time to enjoy a fight to the death.'

In an instant, the two disappeared and reappeared in the center of the arena, exchanging a barrage of punches.

Boom

Boom

Boom

Each punch was stronger than the last. Though Touta's raw power surpassed Ken's, Ken's speed and precision far outclassed Touta's.

"Isn't this exciting?" Ken asked with a savage grin, dodging Touta's punch aimed at his face and striking Touta's solar plexus with his knee.

"It's incredibly fun," Touta said, smiling as he blocked Ken's knee with one hand while using the force of Ken's strike to push himself into the air.

Touta landed 7 meters away from Ken to catch his breath, as Ken's Shundo only allowed him to cover 5 meters in a single step.

"This is dangerous..." Touta muttered, dodging Ken's kick aimed at his head and countering with a punch meant to shatter Ken's foot.

"It seems you haven't shown me your full power," Touta remarked. Despite their exchange of blows, Ken hadn't used Shundo to cover more than 5 meters in a single step, unlike earlier when he had covered 7 meters.

"A person should always have one or two trump cards," Ken said, standing on one leg as Touta's punch had completely shattered the bones in his other foot.

"Do you still want to fight?" Touta asked, looking at Ken's useless leg, now completely shattered. "I don't think you stand a chance of beating me with that leg."

It was clear that Touta hadn't held back in his previous punch. Since Ken's greatest ability was Shundo, destroying his foot would cost him a significant portion of his strength.

"Wanna bet?" Ken said, focusing 20% of his energy into his right foot, 60% into his right hand, and leaving 20% to protect his body. "I'll decide the outcome with this strike."

"Interesting..." Touta smiled, mimicking Ken by focusing 20% of his aura into each foot, 10% to protect his body, and 25% into his hands.

Though Touta could have used his magical power to enhance his body by following the same steps he used with Nen, he chose not to. Doing so would have been disrespectful to Ken, who hadn't hesitated to teach him Nen to fight against him.

"Here I come," Ken said, not hesitating to kick the ground using Shundo, appearing in front of Touta in the next instant. This was the fastest speed he could achieve in his current state.

Seeing Ken in front of him, Touta didn't hesitate. Ken struck Touta's solar plexus with his right hand and his face with his left. Touta smiled, transferring all the aura from his left hand to his right and striking Ken's face with all his might.

Boom

With a deafening explosion, a large portion of the arena was destroyed, and dust spread everywhere, obscuring the outcome of the clash between the two.
