The Rage Beast looked stunned after the sudden transformation. Soon, both of their heights were almost the same!
He was still slightly taller, but the pressure coming from Ichiro made him feel tinier!
''Huff…'' Ichiro took a step forward, and that alone caused the room to shake.
The Rage Beast knew that he needed to go all-out to survive this!
He can use only a fraction of his Power Trait, but he is confident enough to think that it will be enough!
His Power Trait is called Heat Vision.
He can send a beam of fire from his eyes and burn everything to crisps, but he can only use a fraction of that power.
But, it is something that normal humans can't survive.
Ichiro saw the Rage Beast's red eyes glowing even more until they became fiery red!
He narrowed his eyes and felt that something was wrong.
*SWOOSH*
Ichiro's eyes widened after suddenly a beam of fire left the Rage Beast's eyes!
He anxiously jumped to the side and watched as the fire beam caused havoc.
The walls of the room were instantly burned to crips as the fire beam kept traveling through the walls, leaving only a hole behind.
The Rage Beast turned his head towards Ichiro, and the fire beam instantly rushed towards Ichiro.
Ichiro felt like he is a bad position! His muscular body decreases his agility by a great deal, and he can't dodge with his massive body either.
He can't block the fire beam, it would be suicide.
Now he felt regretful using the Ultimate Technique before finding out what was the Rage Beast's Power Trait.
'I am so unlucky…' Ichiro lamented and watched as the fire beam was closing in, 'No time for regrets… I can still win this!'
His leg muscles bulged as he leaped straight towards the ceiling!
The Rage Beast instantly aimed the fire beam towards the flying figure of Ichiro.
Most of the VIPs thought that this was the end.
Ichiro will die.
But then… Ichiro's right arm's muscles bulged as he did something unexpected!
His fist collided with the ceiling, which made the ceiling crumble and get blown to smithereens.
Ichiro flew through the ceiling and landed on the next floor. He quickly jumped to the side, just in time to see a blast of fire beam going past him and make another hole in the ceiling.
''Haahhh…'' Ichiro took a breath of relief, but he didn't have time to relax. He quickly stood up and left the room he was in.
The Rage Beast shortly afterward jumped through the ceiling, and once he landed on the next floor, he sniffed the air and smelled Ichiro's blood running away.
A small smirk appeared on his face as he started running after Ichiro, and with his superior speed, it didn't take long for him to catch up.
He saw Ichiro's muscular figure running in the corridors with greyish walls.
His eyes glowed in fiery red as he sent another blast of fire beam towards Ichiro!
Ichiro glanced behind him and quickly punched a hole next to him and entered another room, but soon the fire beam changed directions and blasted the room into smithereens.
Ichiro's body crashed through multiple walls as his chest started showing obvious signs of burn damage.
He crashed through one more wall and landed painfully on the ground.
''Oww…'' Ichiro tried to stand, but it felt like all the strength in his body was sucked away.
His muscles had already stopped listening to him, and the muscle density was decreasing with terrifying speed.
The time limit was coming way sooner than he anticipated!
*BOOM*
A wall got destroyed as a figure with black fur entered the room. His face showed a sickening smirk as he looked at Ichiro, who seemed defeated.
Ichiro gritted his teeth, but his body didn't listen to him as he felt weakness surrounding him.
Thoughts about giving up appeared on his head.
He still has Death Ignore… He won't be truly dead…
'Maybe they won't let me die…' Ichiro thought and, with his hazy vision, looked for any cameras, but for his shock… There weren't any!
He anxiously looked around and saw that there wasn't even a door leading to their current room! They were completely in blindspot!
'Fuck…' Ichiro cursed in his mind and saw the Rage Beast's eyes becoming fiery red.
'Wait…' Then Ichiro remembered, 'If here aren't any cameras… I can use those techniques!'
''RAAAAAAAH!'' He screamed and tried to control his muscles for one last push. He put all his muscles around his right arm and used it to push him up.
He saw his sword lying on the ground not far from him, but he didn't need it.
''Huff…'' His pale and sweaty face looked at the Rage Beast with such gaze that surprisingly caused the Rage Beast to flinch.
But, the Rage Beast was still confident in winning. The fire beam left his eyes as he had a victorious smirk on his face.
Ichiro crossed his arms while a his eyes showed the coldness of an Assassin
'I wonder… Can I use my Power Trait as well?' A crazy thought appeared on his mind. There was a small voice echoing in his mind that it would be possible.
The fire beam was only an inch away from hitting him.
Ichiro gritted his teeth and unleashed his technique.
[Prime Kurogami's Iron Style - Iron Predator!]
The Rage Beast thought that it would be an easy kill… But then something incredible happened.
Ichiro's flesh around his arms started slowly changing! A hue of grey covered his arms, all the way from the shoulders to the tip of his fingers.
His fingers looked like they truly became claws of an ancient beast!
*BOOM!*
The blast of fire beam collided with his arm. The Rage Beast was confident in his victory, but suddenly Ichiro started moving forwards!
His two arms kept pushing the fire beam forwards. His arms didn't seem even the slightest damaged, not even a burn mark.
The Rage Beast widened his eyes in horror as Ichiro pushed his body through the fire beam and appeared in front of him unharmed!
His red eyes stopped glowing, and his eyes showed the shock he was in.
But… Ichiro still hasn't unleashed his move!
A small smirk appeared on his face as he shouted, ''Fitting death for Beast like you! Iron Predator!''
His claw-like fingers slashed through the Rage Beast's body like it was butter.
Several pieces of Rage Beast's body fell down on the ground as the room was instantly pained in bloodish red.
*Beep* *Beep*
He heard countless notifications popping in front of him, but Ichiro didn't have time to care.
He fell down on his knees, and his figure started becoming skeleton-like.
His Ultimate Technique… Was over!
