《Skill Overdose》Monster

In the main hall.
Liam lost himself and didn't realize that he was pummeling the scarface guy like he was a raging beast.
Because a large quantity of his strength was compacted in both of his arms and legs, every hit he was releasing contains a great amount of power and he was never being pushed back because his legs were like a heavy rock that was bringing his body to move forward.
The scarface guy was taken aback. He never once imagined in his life that his body, that he trained for almost 20 years, was being beaten like he was a punching bag by a guy who looked so much younger than him.
Every hit he took from Liam, his firm and thick muscles were either being swelled or being torn apart by its great speed and power.
It's been a long time now and he can't take the shame anymore. He opened his arms and stopped defending, then he tried to hit the kid with a right hook punch.
Even though Liam seems like he lost himself, there was a part of his consciousness that resides and let him overcome his pure emotions.
Earlier, when he thought about Ian got beaten, he wanted to escape immediately and kill the guys who hurt him and the only strong emotions he felt that moment were grimness and fierceness.
But now that he was currently fighting one, he somehow managed to think of his own self, at the same time, a bit of his consciousness plod in.
His perceptiveness came back to it's original strength and his reflexes and evasion followed.
In the end, Liam was able to dodge the incoming attack by moving his upper body sidewards.
He grabbed the stretched arm with his left hand and dealt damages to the scarfaced guy by punching his chin and his left biceps before the guy could move his left arm.
He hit him in his Vital Points!
Of course the guy wasn't left being completely stunned from getting hit in the chin. He can't move his left arm for a few minutes and it was just that.
However, he was startled by the fact that the government from all around the world ban the normal citizens to even know a single human body's vital points, yet the young man in front of him actually hit his body in the vital points flawlessly!
The scarface guy was stunned for a second before he ducked and grabbed Liam's body with his right arm.
'Fine. I'll have to kill this kid. his strength isn't something to scoff at.'
The scarface guy decided to immediately kill the kid in front of him.
He pressed his muscles tightly and brought Liam up into the air.
THUD!
Liam was knocked down to the floor and hit his head badly.
He also full regained his sanity that way and dodged a massive fist falling to his face.
He stood up and took a step back.
Liam regained his composure and he began focusing to turned the situation to his advantage.
He was no longer angry and frustrated by Ian being beaten because he didn't need to anyways. He just need to beat all the terrosist and everyone inside this hospital is going to be safe.
The scarface guy didn't wait much long and ran straight towards Liam. He jumped high even with his heavy body and tried to punch the kid in the face.

Liam was surprised for a moment before he ducked and leaped sideward leaving the scarface hit nothing but air.
By that time, Liam learned that he could willingly shift his sheer strength to any part of his body.
'I should call my shifting strength 'vibe' because it's giving me a slight excitement to fight.''
He moved his strength... or his 'vibe' down to his legs, then leaped towards the scarface guy.
Liam, who is planning to strike with his perfectly mastered basic technique of boxing 'straight punch', was already smiling to see how strong he is.
That is why the subcategory of the Passive Skill in his System 'Techniques' was considered overpowered because once you get the technique, you will not just learned it but you can do it perfectly like you trained it for years.
Adding that and his gathered strength, it can surely knocked down a person. Unless that person was as strong as the brawny guy in front of Liam right now.
The scarface guy turned around and saw a fist flying to his face.
PHWACK!
Scarface took a solid hit from Liam and lost his balance.
Liam thought that this is his chance to knocked the scarface guy down unconscious when he was about to fall to the ground.
As soon as Scarface's butt touched the ground, Liam already moved his feet towards his face.
Another hit was taken by Scarface that made his body tilt sidewards.
Liam moved again and tried to hit Scarface's face again with his knee but it was blocked by his right arm.
Scarface pushed Liam away with his left arm.
He can finally move his left arm!
With it he can fight the kid and still kill him but unfortunately, it was all to late now.
His body was aching more and more because of the aftershock of getting hit continuously earlier and his vision was starting to darkened because he took a solid hit to the face.
'This kid is not fighting recklessly anymore. He changed once again, but his strength did not.'
He stood up and formed a fighting stance. He was no longer on a defense.
In this kind of fight, he can't win by only defensing. Even though he can't say that he can win surely by fighting him head on, he still have a higher chance by doing so.
He ran towards Liam really fast, then when his foe was finally in his range, he grabbed his right arm and pulled it towards him.
Liam was stunned by seeing a hulk running at an incredible so he didn't react fast enough.
He then released his massive fist to strike it to his opponent's face.
"!"
Liam was being held so tight and pulled so quick that he can't fight back to escape, then the next thing he saw was a huge fist which was covering his sight quickly.
PHWACK!
Scarface relaxed a bit when his punch landed on his target successfully.
He only have a few strike moves but those 'few moves' are enough to take out every single one of his opponents.
Even though he was confident that his strike earlier was strong, he still didn't let his guard down and still grabbed Liam's arm.
He was looking at the kid's pushbacked head.
His eyes and his muscles were not moving an inch.

Scarface knew that this is the sign that a person was currently unconcious but somehow, he still felt some uneasiness lingering within him.
He decided that he will end the kid in front of him with a hit in the stomach while he was still in an unconscious state.
He clenched his fist and it seems to be getting bigger and bigger by a second until it became a gigantic size with height of 3 inches and a width of 5.5 inches.
It was really similar to a big stone and it was now flying to it's target.
At that moment, Liam suddenly opened his eyes and immediately regained his composure. He heard a loud ripple in the air and saw a giant hand moving towards his stomach.
He quickly reacted by simply moving his hips backwards.
The fist flew pass Liam but it scraped his shirt and somehow even scratched his skin without touching it.
When the scarface guy's arm stretched out completely and his fist punched the air, a weak shockwave formed where the fist stopped.
It made a loud clap-like noise and made the air around it have some intense pressure that formed a sudden wind for quite a distance.
Liam who dodged the deathly punched was frightened but at the same time he was relieved.
That punch earlier was no doubt not much weaker than his skill 'Fiery Punch' and he don't know if he could still be alive after getting hit by it.
He unconsciously felt a happiness of surviving once again since he fought the guy who barged in his house and the terrorist in the VIP floor.
"I dodged it--... No. I was just lucky that I woke up somehow... I am still weak." Liam said inwardly as he gathered his all of his strength to his left arm and quickly threw a punch the man in front of him.
!!!
One hit under the nose and one hit to the chin. It was another two vital points that only veterans knew.
The guy blanked out, released his tightly grabbing hand and slowly fell into the floor.
THUD!
Liam reverted his hand and glanced at the other terrorist, the fedora guy, with an intent of killing.
His expression was calm and his body was yet to move daringly, but his eyes and the atmosphere around him are completely different.
He didn't to do things slowly from now on.
"You. Are. Next." Liam said with a deep and cold voice.
Liam averted his gaze and looked at the unconcious brawny man on the ground. He kneeled in one knee and put his hand above the body.
"Absorption. Random."
The guy with fedora was completely shaken. He was watching Liam doing things with bewilderment.
Not even a several minutes passed but the kid that have so many severe injuries and wounds, was creating a barely posibble act in front of him.
After just waking up with the injuries, he bent and broke a thick metal just by using force in a rope, he pounded an extremely trained body of a man and beat him within a couple of minutes, and now he was doing something weird by putting his hand on top of an unconscious guy.
Just what kind of monster did he encounter!?
5 years ago, when he was still a naive minor, his mother passed away from a lethal disease and he was left with only but a heartless father.
When his father isn't near him, despite being poor, he was easily making friends because of his good looks, that's the only thing in the world that made him happy for the first time and it was also the last time.
His demon of a father didn't let him out of the house.
He was so bored and lonely that he finally decided to see his friends that he made outside.
But that was the last time he thought of that decision because his father quickly found him out.
He tied his body, put him in a wooden closet and feed him with only a cup of rice and salt, for one week straight.
He cried for the whole time until the closet door finally opened completely.
He thought that his father felt some kind of sympathy for him because he let him sit on a chair, but no, he smelled his father with a scent of strong liquor.
A moment later, his clenched his fist, and pounced it into his face.
That's the first time he was punched. One hit out of a thousands of hit.
Several years later of those sick beatings. He endured the pain, fear, loneliness, anger, and every negative emotions, he adapt, and finally overcame everything.
He was emotionless. It became a part of him. Just like an ability. It was a really strong and deadly ability.
But unfortunately, it has a bad side effect that soon became permanent. A month later after being 'emotionless', he accumulated an unknown disease.
It was a mixture of Dissociative Identity and Bipolar disorder. Emotionless, Overjoyed, Sorrow, and Fury. He was changing like crazy.
One time, his father was extremely agitated by his sudden changes of emotion and beat him more, then the thugs that his father were in debt of barged into their house.
His father was beaten up. He was in the same state as him.
The thugs realized that he was being abused by his father so he let them kill his fayher and brought him a knife.
He was being forced into doing it. Even though he didn't care, somethung inside him was moving really, really weird.
His emotionless state turned into merciless.
He eventually held the knife and stabbed his father countless of times. His eyes suddenly moved toward the laughing thugs.
He stood up and easily killed all of them by either stabbing them in the stomach or slicing their neck.
The room was filled with nothing but crimson-red blood.
A moment of silence passed before coming up with the decision to end his pitiful self.
He didn't care about anything anymore. Even his own life.
He's been dead for almost a year now.
What can possibly change?
But before he could slit his own neck, a man with a black fedora hat suddenly appeared and stopped his hands from moving any closer.
The mysterious man's lips slowly arched upward.
"From now on, you are going to be my student... You'll be a monster.."
