Honey : The Empire's Treasure 81 Men Problems 2

When the whistle blew this time, Joanos did not attack immediately. Instead, he chose to wait to look for any weakness Kaze might have in his defenses.

Admiring Joanos' cautious approach, Kaze now found him a worthy opponent this round. Changing his fighting style, Kaze goes on the offense.

Shortening the distance between himself and Joanos, Kaze sent out a combo of high, low and spin kicks Joanos' way with no pause in-between.

Blocking the best he could, Joanos felt himself being pushed farther and farther away from the center of the ring.

Knowing once his feet steps outside the ring he would have lost another match, Joanos was getting distracted.

Trying to formulate a counter-attack, he didn't observe Kaze switching his stance to one who was going to deliver a punch. By the time Joanos finally caught on, a powerful punch arrived directly to his stomach.

Joanos though he was going to throw up his guts, that how much Kaze's punch hurt. Crumbled on the ground, Joanos was almost about to blackout.

Wyn saw when Kaze changed his attacking style, but he could not warn his young master during a sparring match. When the punch struck, Wyn could feel the pain from where he stood.

Hoping his young master wouldn't embarra.s.s himself by releasing his bowels, Wyn called an end to the second round.

It took a while before Joanos could catch his breath, even when he could Joanos felt the pain from the punch radiating throughout his entire body.

His stomach felt like it was on fire.

On wobbly legs, Joanos walked back to the center of the ring.

"Young Master, I don't think there is any need for a third match. Why don't we head back? The feast will have started by now..." Wyn tried to coax Joanos away to save some face.

"No, there will be a third round."

Kaze felt bad for the last punch. He seriously thought the kid would be able to block at least a portion of his attack, not leave himself wide open.

Looking to Miss Mikaela for suggestions on what to do.

Mika signaled for him to continue.

Sighing and having no other choice against these two masters, Kaze prepared for the next and final round.

Blowing the whistle for the final time, Wyn wondered if he should bring a hover bed for his young master.

With the final round starting Joanos closed his eyes and release a fraction of his gifts.

Opening his third mind, Joanos let his powers flow around in the sparring grounds until focusing in on one.

Kaze detected the change in Joanos' aura. Feeling Joanos' gifts flowing around him, Kaze protected himself and released his gifts.

Kaze and Joanos' gifts were almost the same, where Kaze operated his gifts on a conscious mind, Joanos' operated his gifts on a subconscious/sleep mind.

Mika who was watching on the side tensed when she felt the undercurrents of power flowing around her.

This was the second time Mika has felt people releasing their 'gifts'. The first time was with her father, and now she was feeling it with Kaze and Joanos.

Yearning to see these gifts in action, Mika's enthusiasm was renewed forgetting about her snacks.

Being in the first stage of sleep, Joanos allowed his senses to take over. Kaze's senses went on alert, they were telling him to be cautious of this new threat. As one to always listen to what his gut tells him, Kaze gave himself some s.p.a.ce from Joanos.

Testing each other, Kaze and Joanos let their power poke at their opponent's defenses search for any weakness. Finding it, they moved at the same time.

Within seconds they were clas.h.i.+ng, the thirty moves were exchanged and still, no one came out the victor.

Wyn, felt the pressure intensifying as the match carried on. Worrying that they might actually cause serious injuries to each other, Wyn sought Mika for direction.

"Miss Mikaela, I think we should stop them." Captured by the fighting, Mika didn't even know Joanos' steward to beside her.

"Miss Mikaela...Miss Mikaela!"

"Huh?...What-What wrong?"

Mika's attention was focusing on training her eye speed to keep up with their fighting.

Joanos' and Kaze's fight had sped up as they released more of their power.

When Kaze and Joanos increase their speed again, distracting Mika enough for her to hear Wyn.

"We should put an end to this match before they seriously hurt each other..."

Mika looks at the intense fighting and then back at Wyn, seeing the concern expression on his face, Mika agreed.

Relieved, Wyn stepped into the ring, but he couldn't stand the pressure coming from the two.

Falling to his knees, Wyn had to have Saavi and Mika help him get away from the sparring ring.

"Miss Mikaela, I should go get help. This isn't good. If they keep going like this, they won't stop unless they seriously hurt or kill each other."

Mika realizing the grave situation they were in, sent Wyn off to get some guards.
