Bully Lord

Part-112

A sense of urgency settled over James. He needed to be prepared. He needed to be stronger, faster, and more skilled. With that thought, he decided to seek out Coach Gin once again. He needed more pointers, more training, and most importantly, a way to counter Limon's unpredictable aggression.

The Judo club awaited, a sanctuary where he could focus on improving his skills. As he stepped onto the mat, a renewed determination fueled his movements. The memory of Limon's smug face served as a constant reminder of the challenges ahead.

James approached Coach Gin, his voice filled with determination. "Coach," he began, "I need you to go all out. No holding back."

Coach Gin raised an eyebrow, a flicker of surprise crossing his face. "Are you sure about that, James?" he asked, his voice low.

James nodded, his resolve unwavering. "I need to know where I stand," he replied.

Currently, James boasts a combined stat total of 106.7. His current status card reads as follows:

Strength (STR) - 23

Constitution (CON) - 27

Dexterity (DEX) - 17.9

Intelligence (INT) - 18

Wisdom (WIS) - 20.3

Charisma (CHA) - 49

Reflecting on his progress, James remembered that the last time he faced Coach Gin, his combined stats were at 90. He was eager to see how much of a difference his current stats would make in his performance this time around.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. With his strength, constitution, and dexterity all improved, he was hopeful that he would fare better against the formidable coach. His increased intelligence and wisdom would also play a role in his strategic thinking and decision-making during the sparring session.

As he prepared for the upcoming challenge, James felt a mix of excitement and determination. He was ready to test his limits and see how much stronger he had become since his last encounter with Coach Gin. This time, he hoped to stay on the mat longer and withstand the coach's powerful moves, proving to himself just how far he had come.

Coach Gin stepped onto the mat, a serious expression replacing his usual calm demeanor. The atmosphere in the dojo shifted, the playful sparring session morphing into a high-stakes battle.

The first few minutes were a blur. Coach Gin's attacks were relentless, each move a testament to his years of experience. James, despite his improved skills, found himself constantly on the defensive. He was thrown to the ground repeatedly, his body aching with every impact. Yet, he refused to give up. With each fall, he found a new source of strength, a determination to endure.

The minutes ticked by, the pain in his body becoming a distant ache. James focused on his breathing, on maintaining his balance, on finding an opening. He blocked a powerful punch, countered with a sweep, but Coach Gin's experience was too vast. He was thrown again, this time landing with a thud that sent a jolt of pain through his body.

But James refused to stay down. He pushed himself up, his legs trembling, his vision blurred. He knew he wasn't going to win this fight, but he wouldn't lose without a fight. The mission required him to survive for two minutes, and he was determined to see it through.
