199. A Worthy Opponent
Both men moved at the same time.Faster than before.BOOOOM!The next collision shook the entire structure.Cracks spread across the walls.Part of the roof began to collapse.Neither of them cared.There was no room left for restraint.No hidden layers.No reserve strength.Only one objective remained.Victory.More debris rained from above.Not just dust this time, but chunks of old timber that could no longer withstand the relentless shockwaves generated below.Wood splintered.Fragments crashed across the floor.Still, neither fighter looked away.The world around them had ceased to matter.Only this battle remained.Oscar's breathing had grown heavier.Yet it remained steady.His eyes stayed locked on his opponent.There was no hesitation left.No second-guessing.No retreat.He had already made his choice.And that choice offered no path backward.The man stared back.For the first time, there was no smile on his face.Only focus.Pure focus."Good," he said quietly."Now neithe
198. Turning the Tide
Oscar didn't answer. But his position had changed.Lower and more stable.He was no longer just defending.He was starting to control.The fight was back on. But this time, it wasn't just about who was stronger. But who went deeper.More understanding.More able to control the flow. Not just his own, but the opponent's.THUMP! BANG! BANG!Another crash shook the room.And now something was different.The pressure was no longer one-way.It was reciprocal. They penetrated each other. They broke each other.And amidst it all, Oscar found his rhythm again.Slowly but surely.Oscar knew that if he could fully grasp what he had just discovered, the man standing before him would no longer hold the advantage.And when that happened, this fight would finally be decided.Oscar drew a calm breath.Dust still hung in the air, but it no longer swirled wildly.It was as though the room itself was holding its breath, waiting to see who would fall first.Oscar lowered his stance.His feet were plant
197. There's Always a Gap
The other two immediately stepped back.Giving him space.The transition was seamless.Disciplined.Oscar straightened.His breathing remained steady.His focus never wavered.The man advanced.Slowly.Yet every step felt heavier than the last.His presence wasn't explosive.It was concentrated.Dense.Oppressive.Unlike anything Oscar had felt from the others."Now," the man said calmly, "I'll try myself."Silence.Then—Whoosh!He vanished.Faster than the other two.Cleaner.More efficient.Oscar reacted instantly.BAM!Their first clash erupted.And this time it was different.The force behind the strike felt deeper.Sharper.As though it bypassed the surface entirely.Oscar took a step backward.His eyes narrowed.The man didn't pause.CRASH!A second attack followed immediately.Oscar blocked it.Yet the impact forced him back another two steps.For the first time since these people had arrived...Oscar had been driven backward.Ellizabeth clenched her teeth.Still, she didn't i
196. A Fierce Battle
Oscar hadn't said a word.He simply stood there, upright and calm, his gaze fixed on the man before him.He had been prepared from the very beginning.Now he finally understood why this man hadn't shown himself earlier.They had wanted to corner him in a place like this.A confined space.A place where numbers would matter.The man took a few more steps forward, venturing deeper into the cabin before stopping at a safe distance."I told you yesterday we'd meet again," he said casually.Ellizabeth narrowed her eyes, annoyed by his arrogance and endless talking."What happened?" she mocked. "No more sweet promises this time?"The man chuckled."No. It doesn't seem like they work on you."Silence followed.Then he looked at Oscar more seriously."I'll be honest."His voice lost its playful edge."We only need you."No more games.No more layers.Just the truth."And we can't allow you to fall into someone else's hands."The meaning behind those words was unmistakable.Oscar let out a slo
195. A Promise to Stay Together
“I’d be the luckiest woman alive if I became your wife.”To Oscar’s surprise, Ellizabeth answered without hesitation this time.Even though her face was burning red, there was unmistakable sincerity in her eyes.Oscar’s heartbeat instantly became uneven after hearing her answer come so naturally.Happiness flooded his chest.So this woman had truly accepted him completely.And this time, Oscar stopped holding himself back.He gently took the bowl of soup from Ellizabeth’s hands and set it aside.Then his large palms cupped her cheeks tenderly.“Are you sure?” he asked softly. “You won’t regret choosing me as your husband?”“I’m sure. Very sure. Why would I regret it?”“You might someday…”“I won’t,” Ellizabeth answered immediately, without even needing time to think.This time, it was Oscar’s face that turned red.He was too happy.His chest tightened with overwhelming emotion.Oscar swallowed several times as his breathing grew heavier.Slowly, he drew Ellizabeth closer while leaning
194. The Eternal Pill for Her Father
Oscar lowered his head slightly.“Why?”The scent of her damp hair filled his senses.Ellizabeth closed her eyes.“So when danger comes…” she whispered, “I can stand beside you instead of hiding behind you.”Oscar’s heartbeat pounded harder.His arms tightened around her instinctively.For a while, neither of them spoke.They simply enjoyed the rare peace surrounding them.Then Ellizabeth lifted her head. Her face was so close to his, her eyes clear and filled with trust.Oscar couldn’t hold back any longer.He slowly leaned down.Their lips met.Soft.Warm.But gradually, the kiss deepened.Ellizabeth gently gripped the fabric of Oscar’s shirt, returning the kiss without hesitation.It was long.Filled with emotions they had never truly spoken aloud.When they finally pulled apart, both of them were breathing heavily.Ellizabeth’s cheeks burned crimson.Meanwhile, Oscar stared at her with eyes full of emotions too complicated to explain.“I love you,” he whispered.Ellizabeth smiled
