Chapter 257: Suplex Demon

( Cervantez’s POV )

Cervantez watched the fight between Luke and The Boss play out in extreme anxiety.

From the very start of the fight, he was trying to get a read on The Boss’s attack patterns, to try and find a repetitive sequence, potentially indicative of a weakness that could be exploited, however, he could unfortunately find none.

Sometimes his vision would be blocked by Luke’s body which would not allow him to watch The Boss’s footwork, or the angle from the stands would not allow him to watch The Boss’s arm movements as closely as he would like, as until the very end, Cervantez could not get a read on ‘The Boss’.

For the majority of the match with Luke getting thrashed one sidedly, Cervantez felt his gut wrench, as it was him who had come up with the strategy on how to beat ‘The Boss’ and Luke was only following his instructions.

It was him who had advised Luke to find a pattern in The Boss’s attacks, anticipate his moves, and then strike pre-emptively with a counterattack. However, when Luke’s HP dropped below 30% and he still couldn’t see an evident pattern in The Boss’s attacks, Cervantez began to doubt his plan.

‘Did I just doom my vice guildmaster’s fight because of my stupidity?’ he wondered when suddenly out of nowhere, Luke dropped his sword and shield and made a move on The Boss.

Catching him off-guard, Luke managed to slip his arms around his waist and get behind his back, as while the whole move was too fast for most people to understand, Cervantez catched everything that happened in slow motion.

He watched with bated breath as Luke’s arms locked around The Boss’s midsection. With a powerful lift, Luke hoisted The Boss off the ground, arching his own back in a textbook German suplex. The sight was both awe-inspiring and nerve-wracking, as the move was executed with extreme precision and strength.

Time seemed to slow down as Cervantez’s eyes tracked The Boss’s body in the air, the crowd’s gasps barely registering in his mind. For a brief moment, he feared that Luke might have miscalculated, but the perfect execution dispelled his doubts as Luke dropped The Boss precisely on his temple.

*BAM*

The impact was thunderous as The Boss’s head slammed into the ground, the impact creating a mini crater in the arena sand below as Cervantez’s heart pounded in his chest as he realised the significance of this moment.

Luke had finally managed to break through The Boss’s defences, and for the first time, there was a glimmer of hope.

‘This is it,’ Cervantez thought, gripping the edge of his seat. ‘He has won this fight’.

***********

( Leo’s POV )

*BAM*

Being dropped on his temple, Leo felt dazed out of his mind.

He felt the blood in his entire body rushing to his brain and then going haywire as his vision blacked out and his muscles coordination seemed to go hay-wire.

‘Move dammit…. If you don’t move you’re going to be hoisted up again’, Leo thought, as he understood fully well that he needed to move fast or this match would be as good as over for him, however, the damage from the first suplex was so intense that his muscles refused to listen to the commands of his brain, as he was stunned for a split second.

Around him he could hear the cheer of the crowd, however, instead of feeling stationary, the voice around him felt like it was rotating in all directions, as Leo felt like the world was spinning under his feet.

*BAM*

Before he could fully recover from the first suplex, he was planted on his head hard with a second one, as after the second suplex he felt his head hurt badly as he could feel his skull cracking and a trickle of blood moving down his forehead as his consciousness threatened to fade.

‘You can’t sleep here Leo…. Sleep and you die…..sleep and you die…. Fight back…. Fight back…. MOVE YOU DAMN BODY… MOVE’ Leo thought, as he desperately urged his body to move, however, before he could feel the sensation returning to his finger, he felt himself being hoisted up in the air yet again, as he was planted for a third suplex on his head.

*BAM*

********

( Luke’s POV )

Luke put every ounce of strength that he had in his body behind the first suplex that he executed.

He had not gotten a single chance to attack his opponent so far into the fight and knew that he would not get a second chance either if he wasted this one, so he made the most of it by executing the strongest suplex he had ever executed before.

The second he completed executing the first suplex, he felt his opponent’s body go limp as the muscles in his body relaxed.

At that instance, Luke immediately executed the second suplex, as anticipation began building in his heart.

*BAM*

The second suplex, which hit as hard as the first one, seemed to crack open his opponent’s skull, as while Luke did not see it clearly, a system notification seemed to indicate that he had scored a critical hit.

‘I can do this…. I can win this fight-‘ he thought, as he hoisted his opponent for a third suplex, which also connected perfectly.

*BAM*

Suddenly, the complete momentum of the battle seemed to have shifted, as from being the underdog the entire fight, Luke established complete control within seconds as he turned ‘The Boss’ from looking like the most dominant fighter ever to looking like a helpless doll in his grip.

“They call me the Suplex Demon….. BITCH” He said, as he tightened his grip around The Boss’s midsection and hoisted him for the fourth suplex.

At this point, Luke felt like he could actually pull off this win…. That he could actually beat The Boss. Afterall, nobody had ever retaliated against the German Suplex after he managed to hit three of them…. As in his mind this fight was now as good as over.
