The enemy's speed and strength seemed to have multiplied. Jake knew he could defend against it for much longer if he followed traditional methods.
He decided to give it his all. That was the need of the moment. He assumed the boxing stance and prepared for tackle.
Jake decided to try and integrate the two arts he had gained. That was the only way he was going to get out of this situation alive.
The following gure rushed in while waving his fist at pull power towards Jake. He bend his legs down and rotated his feet while waving his hands diagonal to the fist and deflecting it's path towards the side.
At the same time he used his other hand to attack the rib cage of the enemy. The attack was successful and his fist made contact , which led to the enemy gasping for breath.
Jake didn't wate this opportunity and attacked dhis enemy from the side, right on the lower chin with such force, that the enemy was dazed and almost lost his balance.
Jake out his front foot forward and jumped to the side of the enemy, while bending his figure backwards allow him to raise his leg and kick the enemy in the face once again.
After that Jake gained the much required momentum. He attacked again and again, only aiming the injured rib, collar bone and head of the enemy.
Eventually the assailant couldn't handle the beating anymore and radiated immense power out of his body. Jake fell back and once the burst of power was over, rushed in once again.
The audience-
When the burst of energy occured , many in the audience were able to recognise it almost immediately.
"That guy is an awakened. This betting house is using awakened to fight normal human. They are fraud."
The situation went completely out of control as the guards who tried to stop the crowd were immediately supressed my massive numbers.
The man on the counter tried to hold them in, but the situation was getting out of hand. The awakened needed to end the battle soon.
But the next moment something incredible happened. The assailant grew out of control and started to attack Jake in random manner. It made Jake's work even easier as he continued to attack, until the enemy's ribs were cracked, the colar bone smashed to pieces and the skull fractured.
The rampage he went on resulted in the rapid depletion of energy , and him falling down, which helped Jake deliver the finishing blow to knock him out.
The problem although was that before the announcer could move in, Jake decided to walk upto the unconscious awakened , and pierced his finger through his eyes, blinding him permanently, after that he grabbed his head and broke it completely, resulting in the death of a awakened.
The audience that was previously shouting against the ring manager, was now staring at the scene with shock and disbelief. A human had managed to kill an awakened.
Jake walked out of the ring towards the counter. Everyone present in between cleared the path , and Jake walked towards the man managing the money.
He was gulping for air, as he nervously looked at Jake.
"My money." Jake asked.
The man knew that Jake would certainly kill him if he didn't pay up. He immediately took the money out of the counter and paid Jake.
Jake took it and walked towards the exit and just before he went out, he raised his hands.
The audience screamed with pleasure and cheered his strength. He had shown the entire group a true miracle.
Jake walked out unhindered, as none of the guards had guts to stop him. Someone who could kill an awakened wasn't something they could deal with.
...
The main office of the ring-
"How can this be? He managed to kill him. Who is this guy? What is is his fucking identity?" The leader of the fighting ring asked.
The servant's couldn't reply as they didn't know anything about Jake. He was wearing a mask this entire time.
"Did you send someone to follow him?" The leader asked.
"Everyone was involved in controlling the angry crowd. We didn't have any individual who were free to follow him." The leader of the guards said.
The leader threw a vase at him with anger.
"We need to control the situation. We need to be back in the business. This time we have incurred a huge loss." The leader said.
He was growing nervous by the second. The organization behind the awakened was sure to come after him. He need to prepare a proper answer for them.
He was moving here and there trying to think of a possible solution.
"It looks like you are facing a problem." A sound was heard from behind the leader. Hence he jumped forward and turned, he found a smiling man looking at him.
"Sirz..." The leader's expression had undergone huge changes after seeing the face of the man.
"No need to be so nervous. I see that you have let my subordinate die in the middle of the ring."
" I tried my best. The audience was rampaging all arouund..." The leader tried to explain by suddenly his figure was lifted mid-air by the neck.
The man holding him was none other than the one who appeared just now.
"You seem to be awfully casual with me. You even tried to explain your failure. What should I do with you." The man was speaking to himself.
"Please give me another chance." The leader pleaded. The man looked at him before saying.
"Fine. I want you to alert me the moment that guy re enters this place. I want to capture and question him." The man threw the leader on floor and vanished.
The leader was sweating while his spine went cold from horror.
"Find that guy. Search for him everywhere in the city." The leader screamed at his subordinate.

"The host has recived intermidate boxing methods, Intermidiate footwork technique, Intermidiate breathing technique."
"The host has recieved a hidden reward. Host's inventory has been opened. The host can now store his possession within the inventory."
When Jake tapped on the inventory tab he saw an uncountable number of open slots. He put the bag of money on one of the slot and it dissapppeared into it.
Jake was shocked and then elated about his new achievement. A huge amount of information was flooding into Jake's mind regarding the new arts he got his hands on and the ways to use inventory.
Jake understood all the aspects of this feature and even tested it multiple times, before storing his masks into another slot.
He the proceeded to check on the new arts and practiced them multiple times.
After he managed to learn the techniques, a whole new set of missions appeared before him.
Jake looked at them with excitement.
"I am going to qualify this recruitment test." Since the money problem had been taken care of, it was time for Jake to start his rigorous taining schedule.
