KINETIC

'Activating my Aura was something that used to take me a whole minute to do, it's a good thing I can do it faster now or I wouldn't stand a chance.' It took only a second for Leo's Aura to spread, allowing him to sense all movement within.

Margraves voice echoes through the area "HAHAHA, You think you can beat me without being able to see me? Let's see how that goes." In only a few seconds, over 20 Margraves appeared, surrounding Leo.

Leo had an unbothered expression on his face. "Is that supposed to impress me, Margrave? Or maybe scare me? Hmph!" Leo scoffs at Margrave while he closes his eyes and takes a defensive position.

'I can tell they are all fakes, none of them are producing any energy from their movement. I can sense where the real Margrave is but if I leave my eyes open then the illusions could distract and confuse me.' When using only Aura to view his surroundings, Leo is only able to see things that are moving. None of the objects or buildings nearby are visible to Leo.

Leo channels his power through his entire body, this grants him better defense, as well as increasing his power. Leo is following Margraves movements with his Aura, but is pretending as though he can't tell where he is by remaining still. Leo's plan is to get one solid hit in by surprising Margrave when he tries to attack Leo again.

Approaching from Leo's left side, Margrave throws a punch towards Leo's face. Leo, sensing the punch coming, pulls his head back, lowers his stance, turns towards Margrave and throws a punch at his sternum with full force.

Leo only had some of his energy channeled in his first, since he had spread his remaining energy through his entire body, so this wasn't the most powerful punch he could make. It was only the most powerful punch he could do at the moment without losing his defense.

The punch impacted and a crunching sound could be heard. Margrave was flung backwards a few meters and landed on his back with a thud. The illusions all around disappeared, but Leo didn't notice since his eyes were still closed.

Margrave was lying on the floor coughing up blood for the next few seconds. Leo decided to wait till he got up. He didn't want to end the fight that quickly. 'He doesn't deserve a quick death.' This was Leo's reasoning.

Margrave got up and ran straight towards Leo, throwing a fast punch. Leo blocked the punch with his arm raised to his head and threw out a punch of his own. Margrave swerved to Leo's right side, dodging the punch.

As he dodged, Margrave threw a kick with his left leg to Leo's side. Leo raised his right leg to block the kick but he was a little too slow and he only deflected the attack. Instead of hitting his waist, it hit his ribs. Luckily Leo had managed to reduce the power of the kick when it was deflected. It still hurt, but it was the weakest attack he had received so far.

When the leg made contact with Leo's ribs, Leo threw a straight punch with his right hand. It wasnt packed with alot of power, Leo focused on speed to ensure the hit would land. 'It doesn't matter how hard I hit, my energy does most of the damage, all I have to do is make contact.'

Margrave lifted his arm to block the attack. When Leo's fist made contact with Margraves arm, Leo could feel Margrave's arm shatter from the punch. Margrave was pushed a few meters back.

At the same time as Leo's punch, Margrave lifted his right leg and swung it at Leo's head. Leo used his left arm to block but the strike still carried power and Leo was pushed back.

Now standing about 10 meters away from each other. Leo, still using Aura to see, was 'looking' at Margrave, while Margrave stared at Leo with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Margrave shouted at Leo, "HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU SO STRONG!" Leo has a smirk on his face when replying, "Who knows." Leo said while shrugging his shoulders.

Meanwhile inside Leo's head, 'Fuck! I'm almost completely out of energy. I've got two attacks left at most! Im going to have to put everything I have into one strike, using the energy in two seperate attacks won't do enough damage.'

Margrave runs towards Leo, "I'M GONNA KILL YOU, YOU BRAT!". Leo gathers all of his energy into his right hand and prepares to counter attack.

Margrave throws a punch out of anger towards the left side of Leo's face. He had placed all his strength into the punch and had given up on defense. Leo ducks under the punch and steps into Margrave's space.

Leo gathers all his power into into a single point on the palm of his hand and shoves his palm into Margraves sternum. Leo attacked the sternum because he knew it was already weak from his first attack.

The energy released, and a splattering sound was heard as Margrave now had a hole through his chest the size of a finger. The wound was bleeding profusely, spilling onto the ground as he looked down at his fatal wound.

Leo opened his eyes to look at Margrave, who stumbled back and fell onto the floor. Margrave was losing blood quickly, and every breathe caused more blood to burst out his mouth and wound.

Margrave spoke between his breathes, "You... Don't even know...what we did to him... HAHA *Cough*... My power... isn't illusions. I can... Alter peoples...minds... So that they see... The wrong things... But with... Enough time I... Can alter memories as well. Your.... Friend... Died believing that... You had abandoned him...HAHAHA *Cough* *Cough*".

Leo's face twisted into an expression of hatred and anger. "WHY, WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES DOING THAT MAKE TO YOU! I WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT HE COULD BELIEVE IN! THE ONLY ONE HE TRUSTED, AND YOU TOOK THAT AWAY AWAY FROM HIM. YOU DIDN'T JUST KILL HIM, YOU DESTROYED HIS SOUL!"

Leo started throwing punch after punch at Margraves head, he had no energy left so this was just his natural strength being used.

"YOU'RE A SCUMBAG WHO DESERVE TO SUFFER FOR ETERNITY IN HELL!"

Leo stopped punching after around a minute had passed, Margraves head and face were severely bloodied and even dented in some places. Leo got up, thinking Margrave was dead, and took a step back. As he did, Margrave grabbed his ankle and spoke "Ich wash all... worf it... To see hish... Fath... When he...died..." With that Margrave drew his last breath with what might have resembled a smile on his face.

Leo backed away, breathing heavily. His body covered in bruises and cuts, blood all over him. Some blood was his own and some belonged to Margrave.

Leo took a few steps before he collapsed to the ground unconscious. Lying face down in the dirt.
