Zeus tasted the copper in his mouth, and his ears were ringing like a church bell on a Sunday morning.
He couldn't hear the countdown being said but saw the referee's mouth opening and closing as if he was saying something.
'…Shit.'
He groaned painfully and slowly stood back up, but there was a stumble in his step, and he almost fell back down.
"9!"
The referee said, and then stopped after Zeus stood back up. He took a quick glance at his eyes. They looked slightly unfocused.
"You alright?"
The referee asked with a frown.
Zeus shook his head, trying to get rid of the ringing, but failed to do so, and then he spat out the blood from his mouth.
He saw that the referee was saying something to him, but since he couldn't hear him, he just pushed him aside.
"Get off the ring. I am not done just yet!"
Zeus made his way to the Snow Leopard princess. His fist broke the space between them in a straight line.
