Like a fucking deranged mutt who was about to turn into a zombie but stopped 3% of the way in, Benjie was stealing my pose that I stole from a certain person from the Uchiha Clan. In some sort of fucked up way, he was doing a better job than me because if his eye stopped healing for not staying put and resting, he'd be halfway to what happened to the character I was referring to. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶

But with that said, he looked like he had no intention of fighting because he could just drop down now because the finals was over, but I'd make fucking sure he wouldn't be able to stand on two legs.

There were a lot of people here that could still stand back up even after I was done with them but even if it sounded like I got weaker, it meant something entirely different in my head.

'It just means that there are people still alive that could give me a better challenge…'

Granted I still beat all of them, given time, they'd come back stronger unless they bit the dust. It was because there were only a handful of people that I'd be wary of fighting with my current self and if these people here could still improve, I could use them as whetstones to get even better. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜m

But yeah, I tried to poke the mutt with a stick.

"Yo, haven't you had enough? I could still go if you want?"

"..."

"Ignoring me now?"

I was about to push him a bit more but it didn't take long before I realized several red dots hovering around his body. After that, I noticed that Mr. Cuervo was beckoning me to come up to the stage so that we could finally end this event that was going on for hours and hours.

With that said, I just faintly smiled before I slowly made my way over to them, but I threw Benjie some words that only the people in close proximity could hear, before I took the final step to the stage.

"Dude. Rest. I'm tired… and I guess you are too. There are a lot of things going on over at your side and fighting me to the death wouldn't solve that. If you wanted to kill yourself so much, drop inside and let Mr. Cuervo's goons finish you. If not, walk back to your bed and have some sleep. I'm not dying any time soon so you can shoot me a challenge if you feel like you're forgetting the taste of blood in your mouth."

"..."

"Seriously? I took your eye out, not your tongue. If you—"

I was still in mid-sentence when Benjie audibly exhaled through his nose but he just glared at me one last time before he jumped back and disappeared from view.

The whole place was quiet for a short moment but the DJ was so on point, the music took the crowd once again even if everybody was about to drop down from being sleepy. It just blasted at full volume, timing my steps when I finally stepped onto the stage and made my way to the very center.

At this point, Mr. Cuervo gave me his flowery words of congratulations while Roxanne and Melina each gave me a kiss, got a little too close to me, and sneak-touched me all over. I wasn't even able to react properly because my tiredness was slowly setting in and the touch of two beautiful women was totally different from the strikes that could end me in one blow.

I was just basking in the ambience before Mr. Cuervo's words entered our ears.

[Again, let's give another round of applause for our Champion of Champions!]

The cheers erupted all over again but Mr. Cuervo continued once they calmed down.

[At this point in time, I was supposed to give the reward and tell everyone what it is but this time, I figured that a little bit of mystery is in order. What do I mean? Hmm~ It means exactly what it means. Only the Champion of Champions gets to witness his reward but it's up to him if he'll tell all of you or not. Of course, his people would obviously know it sooner or later but I assure all of you, everything you've seen me reward the winners is nothing but a drop to what our winner here will receive.]

Once Mr. Cuervo said that, the crowd was left speechless but a lot of them still showed excitement about the development. Not only was the reward Mr. Cuervo promised was the best among the best, but it was also something only the person who proved himself could see. And even if the person to receive it could share what it was, there was something to receiving something coveted yet unknown.

Then Mr. Cuervo continued.

[With the nature of the final reward, it could change depending on the circumstances but it will only be given once a year. As you all know, we kept on continuing the tradition of doing these events—and yeah, we'll still keep on doing them but the title given on this day would last for a year before it can be contested on the same soil. But do know this, if something happened to the Head of the Ishiyama Family—god forbid, he'll take the title to his grave. But yeah, I will still come up with another similar title to replace it but his record of being unbeatable in these grounds will be carved in stone. You can only take off his crown if everyone present here witnesses it.]

For some reason, I felt like Mr. Cuervo said that just to give me a layer of protection or something but to everyone here that was present, it meant something much, much more.

I didn't think that coming into this place by chance would lead to this point but my world definitely opened up even if our current one had already ended.
