《The Story of a Dreamer》Normal Fight!
Advertisement
Upon entering the Dojo, Laiz was met with a group looking at him with focused eyes, as if they found some rare treasure by accident.
"Hi.."
Laiz waved at them with an awkward smile in response to their uncomfortable stares.
"..."
Luckily this awkward scene was ended by a man much more older than the rest standing in front of the group.
"My students are in the middle of practice right now, can you wait a few minutes?"
The Old man spoke to Laiz politely despite his strict face and atmosphere.
Laiz nods in response before walking off into the corner.
The old man walks to his previous spot and starts training his students like nothing happened. Even though there were a few curious gazes directed at Laiz from a few students, within a few minutes they're full focus was on training.
'They're diciplined..'
Laiz was weirded out by this group's focus and ability to completely ignore his presence like he was some bug. Had it only been three or four people to do so, he would've been suprised already. But it looked like every single student didn't even have him in their mind.
...
After doing some stances, excersising and spars the teacher finaly came to talk to Laiz after putting his students on Self-practice.
"Now, who are you and what is your purpose here?"
The teacher was straight-forward with his question and quickly addressed Laiz's reasons in going to the Dojo.
"..I'm Laiz. I wanted to spar with you guys.."
Laiz didn't bother to sugar coat his words and just said his intentions directly. He really didn't have the time these days.
The teacher scanned Laiz body from up to down.
He paused before looking back at Laiz
".. You don't have the strength anyone would expect, even from an amatuer"
Laiz's smile crooked. He was astonised at how the teacher was able to tell his physical strength just from a glance.
"..I know some moves"
Laiz said jokingly.
The teacher was unamused by the reply.
"Alright, i'll give you an opponent to fight with"
The teacher's frown was all that was present when this statement was said.
...
Laiz was facing against a diciple that was two times larger than he was. The diciple's biceps was atleast as big as his thighs.
'That teacher sure doesn't give mercy'
This was Laiz very first fight in this world. Yet it looked so mismatched

Laiz wasn't feeling confident in winning.
"Get him brother!!"
"Kill him!"
"WOHOO!"
The diciples around him was not helping AT all.
The teacher went to the middle with his arms raised.
Everyone suddenly went silent.
'Did i hear a pin drop?'
The teacher, oblvious to Laiz's thoughts, looked at the two, then thrust his hand down.
"Start!"
Laiz's opponent quickly dashed towards him.
An amateur would have been knocked out there and then as the speed of the dash was faster than anyone his size should be able to.
However, to Laiz it looked like he was running in water. He was just too slow in Laiz's perspective, though that was to be expected from his high intelligence.
Laiz smiled, and stood still.
'I got scared of nothing..'
The diciples laughed at this, while the teacher shook his head.
Just as Laiz opponent was about to reach him, he quickly dashed in front of the diciple with a punch ready for impact.
To maintain his balance and the blows lethality, he widened his stance.
And as the diciple got close enough, Laiz pushed his fist straight into the diciple's stomach.
The teacher and diciples gaped at the scene before them, there was not a thing that gave Laiz an advantage towards his opponent. He lost in strength and speed.
They're fellow diciple should have won.. And yet the scene before theme did not agree.
Laiz's opponent was in the floor, coughing while clutching his stomach.
Laiz looked at the teacher and diciples with a small smile that made them feel like punching him in the face, it's as if he was saying 'That was nothing'.
"That was nothing"
"..."
The Teacher and diciples was left speechless for quite sometime as they all stared at Laiz.
"Anymore?"
That one diciple wasn't good enough to challenge Laiz. He needed someone that can push him to his limits.
The teacher inspected Laiz again, thinking over what he got wrong when first observing him. He knew Laiz knew some stuff, if not a lot about Martial Arts from what he saw in the previous fight.
But it looked awkward.
The stance and transition for the punch looked as if it was his first time ever doing it. He could forgive Laiz's lack of muscles but for his mastery towards stance and movements to be low too..
From what he could see, Laiz won by quick reaction and thinking.

'Yet, how did he react that fast?'
The teacher was left confused, he had seen professionals' reaction speeds and the average wasn't even close.
He had to see more.
The teacher glanced at a person sitting in front of the diciples.
"Yuuto"
The teacher called over that exact person, now named Yuuto.
"Yes, teacher?"
Yuuto stood in front of the teacher respectfuly.
"Can you fight that person?"
The teacher asked while pointing at Laiz.
"..."
The diciple looked over Laiz.
He had been the best diciple in this Dojo for a few years now and he had been trained by the same teacher since then. He could tell what his teacher was thinking.
"I will"
The diciple looked back at the the teacher and nodded.
"Alright, good"
The teacher nodded back before walking to Laiz with Yuuto beside him.
"If you want you can fight my best diciple"
Laiz looked at Yuuto while the best diciple in response stared back.
Laiz smiled at seeing this.
"Ok"
The teacher nods at that before walking into the centre.
He waited for Laiz and Yuuto to get into position, before thrusting his hands down in one fast motion
"Start!"
Yuuto approach to Laiz was oposite to the previous diciple's.
He stayed calm and focused while slowly circling around Laiz.
Laiz turned to Yuuto's movements and stood his grounds.
The lock was ended by a fast kick from Yuuto aiming at Laiz's liver, which Laiz managed to dodge by moving 90 degrees to the side.
Laiz prepared to hit Yuuto in the back with an elbow as he was passing by.
But, Yuuto managed to dodge the blow by using his forward momentum from the kick and adding a jump with the use of his other leg to move himself forward quick.
They were sent to opposite diretion but their eyes were focused on each other.
Both went to their stance, getting prepared for another clash.
On the other hand, the diciples spectating were all amazed at the spectacle before them. While the teacher remained focused on the fight and said nothing.
Laiz started the clash this time by going in for a punch towards Yuuto's face.
Which Yuuto saw and parried to the side.
Laiz frowned.
Laiz knew what was coming but his body just wasn't fast enough to move back. His stance was not compatible to follow the parry's momentum either and even if he did, he would be left open for a kick.
A punch was already heading towards Laiz's face after annalyzing his dreadful situation.
Laiz was not ready to take the hit.
Laiz knew he wouln't be able to take one blow with his body now.. So this hit meant losing.
'I did good..'
Laiz remained weirdly positive for one second,
'Yeah RIGHT!'
Before exploding
Laiz's eyes changed. His dark blue eyes was many times brighter and clearer now and if anybody were to look closely, they would see sparks of cyan blue electricity in Laiz's eye.
Laiz moved his other hand towards his face with movements that was smoother than it ever was. Everything about his expression changed, his usually carefree charisma was now solid serious.
Yuuto's punch headed straight into Laiz's hand.
Laiz managed to keep his hands from hitting his face by keeping his whole hand firm and strong.
But Laiz wasn't gonna stop there.
Laiz pushed in the opposite direction using Yuuto's punch as he thrust his parried hand back towards his back for extra momentum towards his back.
The result was a high speed spin from Laiz.
During this spin he crouched down with one leg bent underneath while the other stretched to the side.
It was a Low Spinning Sweep Kick!
Although the form was very barbalized as he did it in a very hard situation, it was still bound to have it's effects.
Yuuto did not expect this turn of events so suddenly and was left unable to react.
Yuuto was sent off the ground and was falling.
Laiz did not let this opputunity lose. He dashed towards Yuuto, grabbed his hand and as Yuuto fell into the ground Laiz went on top of him.
On the ground was both Laiz and Yuuto.
Laiz was on top of Yuuto. With one of his hand on Yuuto's back neck and using his weight, Yuuto was left pinned down to the ground.
Laiz's other hand also applied pressure to Yuuto's hand by twisting it back.
...
"..You win"
Yuuto could not find ways to get out of his situation and reluctanyly gave up.
Laiz smile and got off Yuuto before giving him a hand.
Which Yuuto took and thanked Laiz for.
They both looked at the teacher, waiting to announce the winner.
"Laiz wins!"

The Bettor's Oath [A Dark-Modern LITRPG]
We live in a world where the rabbit’s foot helped win the game. Following that logic, tell me, what happens when the odds are flipped against the strong and a god rises to give the weak their right for revenge?~Last segment of the First Monarch's speech before the Lablanca battle. Lothar Ardolf, an alcoholic 27 years old high school teacher, was one of the many men who failed to catch up to life.When everyone around him worked to leave a mark behind, he idled away between states of short sobriety and static numbness, hoping that one day everything would resolve itself. It took little to wake him up. Only a life, soul, and body changing experience.Thrust into a world of cheap power and tyrannical governments, where a man could rival what is true and alter what is false, he was tasked by an elusive being with befalling titans.He wakes up in a prison with a path laid in front of him; one that would challenge all the resolve he has and more. Intertwined in a convoluted scheme of politics and old grudges, he will need to learn how to wield his new powers in order to escape before the secrets of the prison threaten to unravel him.However, he shortly realizes that his new faded fantasy was not a fairy tale. All that awaits him in the end, for standing against the world, is death. That is, if the three sided coin lands on heads. If it lands on tails... The shadowbane army rises. ...... This story is a neo-noir dark LITRPG in a world similar to earth. Take the tags seriously. I've been working on this project for 6 months and my MC is a bit unconventional, so I'm excited to introduce you all to him. Beware, it will be a slow-burn, so please be patient. The main plot will start to kick up at around chapter 15. I will be writing about racists, rapists, cultists and horrible humans. I do not condone or excuse their behavior or choice of words but the first arc will be in a prison and (some) prisoners don't mince their words. My MC doesn't adapt to the new world immediately because that is not realistic at all. It takes time and because of his personality, it will take more than a system to convince him to do someone else's bidding ;) Each chapter will have around 3000+ (give or take) words. I will be updating 2-3 times a week (depending on how busy I am with work and/or college) when I'm done publishing my backlog (Which is very big, 40,000+ words). **Each comment gets rep! Cover art by @tahraart on Instagram. Link to discord: https://youtu.be/91wX0NRjJqg Have a good one, Pistol. **** THE STORY IS ON TEMPORARY HIATUS. WE WILL BE BACK IN 2 MONTHS. SORRY EVERYONE.
