REPEATING TIME
Chapter 123

Now it's just Near and Jason. Ardi now could not fight anymore because he had to fight the old man with all his strength to make Near and Jason calm down.

But Ardi's actions were in vain because the old man easily fought the exhausted Ardi. Ardi fell on the floor because he was no longer strong. The old man finally moved his target towards the two of them. When the old man will approach Jason and Near.

Suddenly Ardi was still clutching tightly to the old man's feet not to come against his two friends.

"Don't look there, you still have business with me here "Ardi clasped the old man's feet tightly to prevent him from coming to them.

Near did not have the heart to see Ardi so that he shouted to make Ardi give up.

"Ardi is enough you just stop. You already look battered so it's better you shut up later get worse. He let us handle it so don't force yourself more than this. Please "scream Near hoping Ardi will take off the old man's leg

But his efforts were in vain because suddenly the old man did not pull his legs by force but he pushed his legs so hard that they hit Ardi's face.

Ardi's first kick was still conscious but as the old man continued to push his leg with it made Ardi increasingly began to release his hand from the old man's leg.

"I'm going to fight you" Jason said suddenly.

Jason intends to sacrifice himself just like Ardi, Jason paves the way for Nar to escape, but the plan is stopped by Near.

"No, I'm not running. I don't want to leave the fight again. Even if it should risk my life I still help those who are injured "Near said with firm determination.

After a long argument, the two of them decided to fight it together.

"We'll both be your opponents. You better be careful" Near warned.

"Hahah, it is better this way because it does not feel tense if one by one "the old man smiled happily.

Jason wanted to take his hand off Near so he could fight freely against the old man.

"Are you okay "ask Near worriedly.

"It's okay. This is also so that we can freely fight the old man "Jason began to stand alone without being held by Near.

"Don't turn your eyes around stupidly" said the old man who was in front of the two of them.

The old man deliberately jumped towards them as the two of them let their guard down. He jumped towards Near being, based on his experience he would hit suddenly to the person whose body was still fit namely Near so he easily finished off the rest until the end.

Seeing this Near can no longer wiggle. Since he had no time to dodge, he could do nothing at the moment. Now all he knew was that he would die if he was directly hit by the old man.

"Matihanahhhhh " cried the old man while smilingly directing his punch.

************

But when the old man's punch had almost hit Near with a distance that was almost as bad. With quick reflexes Jason stopped the old man's attack using his left hand. He held back the old man's attack firmly even as the old man pushed him hard again still Jason gritted his teeth he could still hold it.

There was nothing Near could say now. He could only be shocked when right in front of his eyes was Jason's hand that held the old man's attack firmly. He breathed a sigh of relief because he knew he would not survive if hit by the blow.

*************

The old man's punch weakened and there was no more resistance in his hands. Now his hand was stuck in Jason's hand as well as Jason he still blocked the old man's hand even though there was no more resistance.

They stared at each other sharply with their hands still in position before. The man knew that he was smiling because Jason could stop his sudden attack and even stop it.

"Interesting, you can stop my attack. This is what I hope hehehe "the old man smiled cackling.

"Hmm. You seem to be afraid of losing by attacking us as suddenly as before. Moreover, you attacked Near whose condition was better than mine. And judging from your actions you seem to be cornered because against us "tendangled Jason in response to the old man's surprise attack.

"Hahahhhha, like you said I'm a little overwhelmed against young people like you. But that's not all that makes me rush to fight you two and that's not what I'm going to tell you both "that old man seems to be hiding something from Near and Jason.

(What, what makes him this kind of rush. Is stamina but judging from his condition he is still fit and ready to fight a few hours against us. But what makes it rush. I had to lure him in to tell the truth) in Jason's heart wondered why the old man was in such a hurry.

"I know that, don't tell me, or I know that. That you're going to run out of stamina "guess Jason and hope the old man accidentally tells him why he's in such a hurry.

"Huhah I thought you were more experienced but it turns out you're still a kid. Do you think I would lose to a kid like you. Indeed I've wanted to run out of stamina but that's not the reason and it won't stop me until you guys are battered" said the old man smiling to see Jason guess wrong.

(Damn it looks like we can only withstand his attacks and try to buy time. We'll find out why he's trying to speed up his attack at the end of the day. But are we able to withstand his crazy attack. My left hand was already a little limp withstanding the attack earlier. Are we able to hold back until we know why he hastened his attack. Sialll why he was in such a hurry) Jason was frustrated trying to think of the reason why the old man was trying to speed up the massacre.

"Police.." said Near suddenly.

They were both shocked by Near's words just now. They were also confused by the max just now. On the other hand Jason was confused by Near's words while the old man smiled nervously as if something was about to break everything apart.

"You're a little smarter than this kid. To predict it "said the old man smiling eeriely.

"Eh what's the max of this "ask Jason confused by what they both say.
