    Heartfar''s agility was not affected despite having both hands tied behind his back.


    As he leapt to the side, Scarface''s pure vigor bursts shot past him pointlessly.


    However, when Heartfar was ready tounch a counter, he realized that Scarface had already reached him, and his hand was reaching straight for Hearfar''s throat!


    "You''re fast-but that''s not enough!" Heartfar snorted.


    However, he also realized right then that Scarface was way stronger than Candor.


    He instinctively tried to raise his hands and counter, but he soon remembered that both his hands were bound.


    He certainly could not renege on his handicap, or all his boasting would be pointless.


    "Hup!"


    He raised his foot, knocking away Scraface''s palm with the tip of his sole.


    Then, heughed coolly as he leapt into the air andunched a quick session of roundhouse kicks so rapidly that he looked like a windmill.


    At the same time, the hidden des he concealed on his boots shot toward Scarface as well.


    Shunk! Shunk! Shunk!


    Heartfar sneered viciously even as he heard the sound of de piercing sh.


    As a ckrank assassin, there was no way he did not dip his des in poison!


    And forget the average Joe-even martial artists would be incapacitated in ten seconds!


    He knew right then that his victory was assured!


    "Hah!!!"


    However, a thunderous bellow resounded even as Heartfar presumed his triumph and turned to find Scarface charging at him again. Seeing the holes on Scarface''s arm and shoulders, he realized that the brute must have tried to block the des with his body. "What an idiot!"


    Heartfar chuckled coolly as he leapt backward to ce some distance between him and Scarface.


    He just had to wait until the poison kicked in, and no matter how tough Scarface was, he would not be able to fight back.


    And yet, even as he managed to get away, he found Scarface looking up with a sly smile.


    "What?"


    Even as Heartfar was caught by the surprise by the sudden smile, the bursts of pure vigor Scarface


    unleashed from his fists earlier had suddenly turned around, streaking toward him from behind.


    "What is that technique?!"


    Even as Heartfar was left shocked, he could not dodge the bursts as he was mid-air.


    "Argh!!!"


    Eventually, with a raging cry, he tore off the rope binding his hands andunched bursts of his own pure vigor to repel Scarface''s attacks.


    The crowd cheered, seeing that Heartfar was forced to abandon his handicap!


    At the same time, Scarface was still charging at Heartfar to press his attack.


    But even as he raised his fists again, he suddenly flinched as if jolted.


    He then stopped moving entirely, his fist still upraised, until he fell loudly on the floating tform, rigid.


    "What..."


    Everyone watching was left dumbstruck, seeing that Scarface was suddenly down when he clearly had the advantage.Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    "Hahahaha!"


    On the other hand, Heartfar was roaring withughter when he saw Scarface fall. "You didn''t expect that, did you? What an idiot-all my des were coated in poison, but you had to try and block them with your body!"

    Then, he strode up toward Scarface, lifting his head by the hair. "Still, I have to give it to you. You actually had some nice moves and forced me to use my hands."
