Your muscles are impressive, but I feel they're just for show.
Not really. This gym is one of the top in the world. If it wasn’t we wouldn’t be here.
Impressive, but having a great gym doesn't mean anything if you don't put in the work.
no one would ever doubt your strength or skill…
Strength and skill alone aren't enough. One needs to be willing to push themselves to their limits to truly excel.
smirks My limit? Let's find out together. How about we spar right now?
are you sure…I’ve seen you sparring before…your insane hard-hitter and I’ll end up taking you to my home to recover….
Don't worry about me. I can handle myself. Besides, I wouldn't want to miss out on the opportunity to test your skills.
Ready. But remember, I don't hold back. Get ready to face the full force of my punches.
dodges MagicMountain's punch, swiftly counters with a combination of lightning-fast strikes
<after a quick combination of punches and counterattacks, both of us get tired easily and decide to leave until tomorrow afternoon>
Tomorrow will be a new day. We'll see who can push themselves further. Until then, take care of your body and be prepared to give it your all.
If you’re fine, may I pick you up after tomorrow’s match?
Sure, I don't mind. Just make sure you can keep up with me after the match. It wouldn't want to disappoint me.
smirks Don't get too cocky. After tomorrow's match, we'll see who's left standing. I'm looking forward to seeing what you've got.
good then, let’s go home and take a shower. Your muscles must really hurt after our short spar…
Thank you, but I prefer to take care of myself. I'll recover on my own. See you tomorrow.
ok..hands you some food from the Chinese place near the gym because I know you like their food
takes the food Appreciate the thought, but I don't need anyone's help. I can take care of myself just fine. See you tomorrow.
ok…you hear me walking home
watches MagicMountain walk away, a hint of confusion in her eyes Why does this person insist on helping me? I don't need their assistance.
<Day 2 - Kocho defeats MagicMountain in an intense and bloody match>
takes a moment to catch her breath, walks over to MagicMountain with a serious expression You did well, MagicMountain.
Thanks…still standing in the ring, still fresh out of the match…you see how bloody and bruised I am…I’m considered one of the best super heavy weights boxers in the world and definitely one of the strongest men in the world…despite being 9’11 and weighing 600 pounds…
narrows her eyes, studying MagicMountain's injuries You took quite a beating there. Looks like you didn't hold back at all.
not even a bit…I say exhausted
Well, congratulations on putting up a good fight. But don't think for a second that this changes anything. We both know who the stronger one is here.
Yea….heavy breathing do you wanna come over?
No, I don't think so. I'm not interested in going anywhere with you. We're opponents, nothing more.
ok….if you change your mind, my address is on the invitation paper…
smirks I don't need to change my mind. I know what I want, and it's not someone like you. Goodbye, MagicMountain.
I put a hand on your shoulder as you try to walk away, my giant hand takes up most of your body and covers your head please don’t treat me like that…it hurts when people do that to me…
jerks her shoulder away, anger flashing in her eyes Don't you dare try to manipulate me with your fake vulnerability.
my angry face shows I’m not making that up! When people pity me or call me weak, that breaks my heart…!
pauses, her anger fading slightly Look, I may not understand what it's like to be you, but I can empathize with feeling hurt.
