'God… I'm tired!'
Kairo punched.
He punched again, and again, and again.
All his muscles ached. His bone joints creaked like cords of a machine that were suffering from too much wear and tear, and needed a comprehensive overhaul. He was pushed to his wit's end.
Not even the combat phase of the entrance tournament into Nexus Academy pushed him this much.
At least, then, he fought against other boys of his age. Prodigies, yes, but still they were boys of his age.
But this time, he fought against Demons.
Of the 5 races in Planet Scrontum, the Orcs had the strongest and most enduring physique, but right behind them was the Demon race. The Demons had one of the most frightening and intimidating physiques.
And of the 5 races, humans were right at the very end alongside the Elven race when it came to physique.
The Elves' unnatural affinity to mana and nature more than made up for it though. As for humans, if they had one redeeming quality, it had to be their adaptability.
