The Demon Lord Reborn
Chapter 23: Esir

“Beliau-beliau... If you know, I just took out a fraction of Satan Mode's power. However, you are speaking as if the power of Satan Mode has been suppressed, nothing more than that, it is ridiculous. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!” Esir said while doing a half-body attitude, hiding Sayf Shaytan behind his body and doing Waki-gamae attitude.

Run as many as 4 steps starting with the left foot, then he lunge Freya like lightning. 2 meters before arriving at the position of Freya, Freya, Esir jumped while holding Sayf Shaytan over his head in a straight line and slashed Freya's head to bleed heavily in Migi Jodan's manner.

Not wanting to give a chance, Esir turned towards Freya while holding Sayf Shaytan overhead at a 45° angle to the side and 45° down. The hips are slightly rotated, just following the line formed by the left arm and leg. Then, Esir slashed Freya's blind spot or back until covered in blood using the attitude of Hidari Jodan.

“M-Impossible... How can you pierce through my armor that has been strengthened so easily? What kind of shit is this?” Freya turned her body back while doing a half-body stance, hiding the Sword of Mercy behind her body and doing Waki-gamae's attitude.

“How can a goddess perform human techniques perfectly? N-No, more precisely how could he know that technique? Could it be that he had time to learn that technique when I was demonstrating it?” Esir said from a heart of astonishment and confusion.

Freya lunged at Esir while charging at his chest. Feeling that his attack was successful, Freya turned her body back towards Esir, just before Freya realized that the Sword of Mercy was bouncing away from her current position. The Sword of Mercy was blown away as the blade met with the blade of Sayf Shaytan that was able to reverse the attack like a spring.

“Everything is related to Newton's 3 law which reads, when an action is given to an object, then the object will give a reaction that is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the action given. From the beginning, I had planned it. All according to my plan, no matter how strong your style imitation ability is, I am able to deny it in any way.” Esir said as he turned towards Freya.

Esir holds Sayf Shaytan overhead at a 45° angle to the side and 45° to the bottom. The hips are slightly rotated, just following the line formed by the left arm and leg. Then, Esir slashed Sayf Shaytan on Freya's left arm in Hidari Jodan's manner.

Meanwhile, Freya responded by punching Sayf Shaytan's slash with her left hand and holding him back with all her might to stop before hitting him. The plan was successful, Sayf Shaytan's slash vanished by leaving a light scar on Freya's right fist.

“Your abilities really cannot be underestimated. Actually, who are you? For a human class, your ability is equal to a goddess, even you can hurt me. Achievements so extraordinary, can not be achieved by most humans.” Said Freya who was amazed by Esir, because he was able to fight equally with him.

“His pleasure is praised by the goddess... Ha ha! Though, being praised by both parents only I never felt it... Even so, I have been happy here, used for a fun job.” Reply Esir who is back to remember his past.

A few years before the arrival of Peace, the young Esir was training his Aikido martial skills by beating a samsak with a long black-haired, sharp-eyed and black teenager in white pants that matched him.

“Hey, Esir! What if we start a challenge? If you manage to get 100 fists in 50 seconds, I'll give you whatever you want. But otherwise if you fail.” The teenager exclaimed with excitement.

“Ha ha! Interesting too, yeah. I agree, as long as the prize goes on, Jingren. Actually, I was a little bored after training my Aikido martial skills all night, so I needed some challenging entertainment.” Esir replied while returning Jingren's smile.

“Oh, well then, Esir. I don't think it's necessary to linger anymore, we just start this challenge in a matter of... 3... 2... 1,5... 1!” Said Jingren passionately out of curiosity as to how far Esir had progressed as his junior.

Esir is able to give a fist that is quite hard, so the samsak oscillates and even makes it difficult to be punched. Esir said from the inside while contemplating his mistake, “Damn, I could have made a pretty fatal mistake. I have to lower my energy so that the same incident does not happen again.”

00:02’00"00

Esir raised his second fist on the samsak with less energy than before. But unfortunately, Esir's fist failed and missed the samsak who continued to oscillate due to the error of his first fist.

“If I could manipulate time, I would definitely repeat this for the better... Ah, I remember the words of the teacher who said, “Instead of repeating the incident from the beginning to be seen as good, I prefer to fix it even though it is considered bad. Such is the figure of a real man, receiving criticism and not running away from him.” Said Esir from the heart who remembered the words of his teacher.

00:03’00"00

In the third second, Esir launched both hands to the samsak which began to slow down, so that both hands of Esir were able to land well on the samsak. Esir said from the inside with relief, “Yes, very good! Within 3 seconds, I was able to give 3 fists to the samsak perfectly. Now, I have to speed up every fist of mine.”

00:04’00"00

Then, Esir raised 4 of his fists in a second, making Jingren proud of Esir who was far developed from the previous days. Jingren said from the heart with a smile, “If the teacher sees this, he will surely be proud of you, Esir. Yesterday, you only stuck on 2 fists in a second. But now, you have surpassed it perfectly.”

00:44’00"00

Now, Esir has swung his fist at the samsak 80 times in a period of 40 seconds. And in a moment, Esir will get a reward from Jingren for successfully completing this challenge perfectly, he firmly believes in it.

00:48’00"00

4 Seconds had passed, Esir who was excited turned into fatigue after doing 8 fists in a period of 4 seconds, so the result became 88 fists that he had cast to samsak. Adrift away from the goal, when the remaining time is 2 seconds.

“Taste impossible... Absolutely impossible... No, let's say maybe if your expectations aren't over. And it should be, “The figure of a man does not give up if his expectations have not really ended.” Said Esir whose spirit was burning again.

Seriate...
