《I Am An Imitator, Don't Show Me Your Skills》Chapter 23: Bad Matchup

I aimed my hands at him and blasted both the Fire and Electricity magic at once, but as expected, he was so fast that he dodged my attacks almost easily.
But thanks to the effect of Warrior's rage and by activating the skill Extreme speed I became much faster than him and managed to catch up to him.
I blasted my Fire magic point blank but he dodged it by spinning in the air while launching an effective counterassault and instantly covered my entire body in a white thread immediately binding me in place.
[Skill [Mystic Thread] was acquired.]
[Ability to create, manipulate and shape magical threads, the toughness and sharpness of the threads can be altered by the user.]
The next thing I knew, I was already lying on the ground covered in webs and completely incapacitated to move due to the thick webs hindering me.
So he planned to confine me inside these webs while at the same time avoiding doing any damage to me to prevent me from powering up.
"Good strategy, if I must say," I said while shaking my body inside the gigantic cocoon containing me.
Leal looked at me with discontent visible in his eyes and clicked his tongue.
I exhaled while continuously moving inside the cocoon. "This technique would be very effective against Leo."
I activated my Fire magic and burned the webs, but man! They were tougher than I thought.
So, I activated my Ice magic and turned all the webs into ice, and destroyed them using my empowered physical strength and Fire magic.
Leal's eyes instantly narrowed as he watched me stand up. Afterward, he waved his hand as if he was grabbing something.
Before I realized it, multiple threads already punctured my skin and tried to restrain me. As I looked at the end of the web, they were not connected to anything, they were just floating in the air while attached to me.

Leal moved his hand and I felt the painful sensation as he tried to control my body.
He has already given up on the idea of beating me without causing pain to me and went on his forte.
However, the pain made me stronger, and he knew it.
"I see, so this is why they're calling you the Puppet master."
I wanted to try something so I activated my newly acquired skill Mystic thread and took over the control of the webs attached to me, and just like I thought, all of them disappeared at once.
Leal stared at me with disbelief as his skill easily got brushed off, rendering his attempt useless.
"I had a hunch, but I didn't expect it to be this overwhelming." He said as he assumed a battle stance. "But to surrender is a privilege I don't have, I will never go down without a fight."
"Then, let's end this here."
I activated my Ice magic and covered the entire arena in ice while at the same time activating my Electricity, Fire, and Wind magic and covering my arms with them.
For a few seconds, we remained silent while staring at each other and at once rushed towards each other for our inevitable beatdown.
By heating up my foot I easily ran through the ice field I created and rushed towards him while using both the Warrior's rage and Extreme speed.
Multiple ice spikes assaulted him but he easily sliced them off using his sharp webs, he's using his webs like flexible knives.
I launched a punch packed with Electricity, Fire, and Wind magic but he managed to deflect it by covering my arms in webs and throwing it away from his direction.
However, I followed it up with my other arms, but he was still skilled and fast enough to deflect my attack and launched a devastating punch towards my face while at the same time jumping and slicing off my ice spikes attacking him at the same time.

The difference in skill is pretty apparent, he can fight back even in the middle of an extremely disadvantageous situation.
I shouldn't have forgotten that I'm fighting against a veteran who remained undefeated for several years.
I aimed my hand in his direction and blasted the most powerful fire attack that I can release and engulfed the entire arena in flame.
He jumped towards me while aiming for my head with his fist. I tried to parry his attack with a punch but before he landed, a web immediately pulled him to the ground and launched an uppercut.
He's trying to weaken me up little by little, just like what happened when I fought Leo.
However, his physical attacks were not as powerful as Leo's house-destroying punches.
I grabbed Leal's hand that delivered the uppercut, and the next thing I saw was his despair as he realized what just happened.
It's over. He's strong but it's a completely bad matchup.
I hurled my fist towards his face and slammed it with him towards the ground as the powerful crushing sound resonated throughout the area.
The ground cracked with Leal lying in the middle. It's the very first attack that he received, but it's boosted enough that I was certain that it had devastating damage enough to take him down in one strike.
The audience remained silent while their eyes were widening while staring at the possible conclusion of our battle. However, after a few seconds, the silence shifted to loud roars and claps.
The entire coliseum was engulfed in their excited voices while jumping.
I raised my hand to respond to their applause.
However, before I knew it, Leal was already standing up with evident resentment visible in his eyes.
"Why?" He asked using such a hateful voice. "What gave you the need to go to this place? Do you forget? Do you forget what kind of anomaly you are? there's no such place as a safe place for you, Meruem, because you are a disaster yourself. I don't know where your people have been hiding all this time, but you should have stayed there for everyone's sake!"
He groaned as he walked toward me while his body was shivering due to the damage he took.
He stared at me with his eyes full of desperation in them.
"You are a threat, Meruem. Do you realize?" He put both of his hands on his knees without removing his eyes from me. "You are a danger, not just for me, but for everyone in this place. You are bound to bring ruination wherever you go because that's what the people of your tribe are, the very embodiment of destruction itself!"
