"Ahem, I just wanted to do what I could..."
Faced with Hidechika's strange gaze, Gu Mo explained it like this. He felt a bit awkward; blending in wasn't an issue, but the fear of comparison was daunting. The big boss quietly made the BOSS's health bar disappear, then turned around to find himself locked in a half-day duel with small monsters...
Of course, this was an exaggerated rhetorical device. It didn't actually take him half a day to single out a small Hungry Ghost; it was all over in less than a minute.
Despite a slight hiccup mid-battle, things didn't go exactly as planned. However, he had resolved to not hold back once he'd made up his mind. His chaotic flurry of punches managed to defeat the enemy—
He had no real combat awareness or experience to speak of, merely relying on quickness and ferocity, unreserved physical strength. At least he ensured his first combat experience had no major hiccups and managed a relatively smooth first kill.
