At the left, we see a big mountain. There's lots of greenery on it. On the right side, we see the big city. On the mountain, there is a jungle, and in the jungle, there is a shop. More exactly, a mochi shop.
[Wind flying through the jungle]
[A guy munching on mochi outside the shop]
[A person hiding in the shadows looking at him]
Unknown person: Is this the guy? I think it is. Looks like he is obsessed with these... colorful balls. What a weird guy.
[He is holding a bounty poster]
Unknown person: Name: Kayushi Auralis. Gender: Male. Age: 15–16 years old. Looks: sharp face, reddish hair, bluish eyes. Threat level: M (Max). Techniques: unknown. Power: unknown.
Okay, okay. Oh, there is a warning… "Do not underestimate him."
Dead or alive.
The prize is 50,000,000 Magicoins!? For this guy? Am I tripping? No way this much for this weirdass. This would be a piece of cake.
I am definitely gonna get promoted to A-class today.
Shop owner: Son, do you need anything else?
Kayushi: No, gramps. I'm fine. These mochis are lit though.
Shop owner: What? Is it spicy or something!?
Kayushi: Umm… no. I'm just saying it's good.
Shop owner: Oh… these Gen Z kids nowadays… What is your name?
Kayushi: Kayushi.
Shop owner: Nice name. What does it mean?
Kayushi: Oh… it means the—
Unknown guy: —Ruler of the Eternal Flames, Auralis Kayushi. That's what they call you, isn't it?
Kayushi: Who are you?
Unknown guy: My name is Elfrig Bethena—ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME!?
Kayushi: Umm… sorry. I was eating 😔
Elfrig: 😡😞 Whatever 😏 I'm a member of Eldereza, the Assassin Association, and I'm here to hunt you.
Kayushi: Oh, you guys again… Not again. Please. I don't want to hurt anyone. Just leave.
Elfrig: We'll see about that in a minute. After I finish you off.
Elfrig attacks Kayushi with a powerful punch.
Shop owner: Oh, not this again. These kids nowadays always fight over small things 😮💨
Kayushi: WO! That was insanely strong! Please, I don't want to fight!
Elfrig: Thinking this would be easy… I can beat him. What's up with this bounty? I think the publisher made a mistake. He probably added some extra zeroes because this has to be a 10-cent bounty.
Kayushi throws a straight punch. Elfrig dodges and counters with a jab, hitting Kayushi. Kayushi has to do something to save himself today. But what is that? It wasn't Kayushi — it was just a piece of rock.
Elfrig: Hmm. A rock? Where is he?
Kayushi appears behind Elfrig out of nowhere. He is ready to land an axe kick.
Kayushi: Guess you leave me no choice… I'll stop you. But I won't go that far.
Kayushi is strong, but he should not underestimate the person who is called the 'Pillar Of Overwhelming Pure Speed.'
Kayushi: Is that what he's called? Weird…
Ho—how can you talk to me? Anyways, focus on the fight!
Elfrig: You may be able to dodge these attacks, but you forgot about one thing. MY SPEED IS GREATER THAN A THOUSAND MEN!!
With his overwhelming speed, Elfrig grabs Kayushi by his legs and starts violently smashing him on the ground again and again like how Hulk smashed Loki.
Elfrig: YEAH TAKE THAT!!!!👿 HAAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!😈 😌 sighs 😮💨
I feel bad for you😈 You're very weak😭
??: People say you shouldn't say stuff like that until you are completely sure.
Elfrig: No wonder they call you the Ruler of the Eternal Flames 🔥
We see that Kayushi has made an arrow out of flames.
Kayushi: This one is called, Pyraxis.
Shoot!
Elfrig: Is this all you could do?
Elfrig repels the flames awa—what!? It was Kayushi's plan all along. He comes toward Elfrig from right between the flames and PUNCHES him! Elfrig flies away.
Kayushi thinking: I held back… right?
Unfortunately Elfrig is fine.
Elfrig: Ah 😣… you are strong… But this one is definitely going to hit you!
Elfrig takes a Kyokoshin-karate-ass pose. You know the stance that Gun and that other guy takes for Kyokoshin Karate. You know Gun Park from Lookism?😄...(Sorry, the narrator is mentally ill rn)
Elfrig: This is my Special Technique! 100 Punches… of DARKNESS!!!
Elfrig attacks Kayushi, punching him like 100 times a second. What happened to Kayushi? Well… he just tanked it.
Elfrig: What? 😕🤔🧐🫢😣😨😰😱 😏 You are trying so hard to maintain that face, aren't you? You are feeling the tremendous pain right now, aren't you? You are trembling with fear, aren't you 😏?
Kayushi (thinking): His strikes are strong… but uncontrolled. If I counter at full power, I might kill him.
Kayushi: Ah! Stop! I don't want to fight you—!
Elfrig: are you making fun of me!? You bastard! 1,000 Punches of Darkness!!!!! Haaaa!!!!
Kayushi: no no!- I didn't mean to make fun of you—!
Elfrig starts violently beating the crap out of Kayushi.
Voice: you still gonna let him beat you up? Aren't you gonna fight?
Kayushi: I don't have a choice… I have to stop him.😣
Elfrig: are you talking to yourself? What a weirdo.
Kayushi's thinking what to do.
Kayushi (thinking): If I strike at full strength… he'll die. I can't let that happen. I need it to be harmless but effective.
Kayushi: wind... Slashes.
Wind comes from left, right, up, down and slashes Elfrig.
Elfrig is on the ground in the yamcha pose.
He gets teleported to the association.
Elfrig: no!!! I am never getting a promotion😫
Kayushi: I held back, right?😬
Voice inside Kayushi's head: don't worry, he will be fine.
Kayushi: oh right. By the way, why were you so quiet during the fight, Aurora?
Aurora: ummh... nothing. He just reminded me of him. He used to be confident, selfish, and careless too. He is careful every time now, but his confidence and selfishness remains. Anyways, this carelessness of yours will cost you something big someday, Kayushi.
Kayushi: yeah Yeah. I know. I'll try to be more careful.
Shop owner: Look what you've done! You completely destroyed my shop!
Kayushi: Umm… sorry for that. I would repay you.
Shop owner: do you got any money!?
Kayushi: Uh… I'll figure that part out later.
Shop owner: Don't run!
Kayushi: I'm not running! I'm strategically repositioning!!!
...
Unknown: So, he also failed? I need to tell boss about this.
Teleports
Unknown: Boss! We have a bad news!
Auroma (Boss): Did you ever have any good news? What is it?
Unknown: Another member has failed.
Auroma (Boss): As expected. Do you think these weaklings could defeat him? We need powerful people. He is not just some kid. He is… my son…
