Another World Mall-Chapter 652: Jay’s Mind Battle
Jay and Yasen exchanged several blows again. Unlike the previous exchange, Jay had the upper hand this time.
Due to his injury, Yasen's strength had decreased quite a bit. If this continued, Yasen would become weaker and weaker.
In addition, Yasen couldn't carelessly hit Jay anymore. If he hit his body, Jay would simply take it so that he could injure Yasen. At the same time, Jay would protect his head with all his might.
"Get away!" Yasen shouted and punched Jay from above.
Jay received the attack head-on, getting pushed back by two meters. After that, Jay waved his blade and sent forth the ranged attack.
Yasen grabbed the ranged attack and used his beast soul to boost his strength strong enough to disrupt the flow of the pressure before dispersing it.
After that, Yasen punched Jay in the stomach. As he expected, Jay planned to take it head-on so that he could attack him.
However, Yasen had prepared another surprise for Jay. The moment the punch was about to hit, he halted his step and kicked Jay's calf for a longer reach. As a result, when Jay slashed his blade, the saber only grazed him while Jay received the full damage.
Unfortunately for him, Jay didn't look like he was hurt, despite taking that kick head-on. In fact, there wasn't a single change in his expression, as though Jay didn't feel it at all.
"!!!" Yasen looked surprised, but he didn't know what to do next if he couldn't beat Jay's foot, which was the source of his mobility.
In that little gap, Jay thrust his blade. Yasen slapped the blade and deflected it before spinning his body and hitting Jay with a back kick.
Jay ducked down and headbutted Yasen's chest.
"Gah!" Yasen gritted his teeth, enduring the pain. He clutched his other hand and smacked Jay from above, but Jay simply dropped first to avoid the attack before slashing his blade horizontally, aiming for Yasen's legs.
"!!!" Yasen leaped into the air to avoid that attack, but soon he noticed something unexpected.
"He's good!" Principal Vhalor gasped.

"Principal?" Utaha looked confused.
"Look at Jay's foot. That kick earlier was definitely effective. However, he didn't show any change of expression earlier, making Yasen think that the kick wasn't enough, which forced him to jump. But in this position, Yasen couldn't escape. Jay is planning to settle the fight in this clash," explained the principal.
Utaha confirmed it was true. Jay should have a problem moving with that leg, so he wanted to end it here.
This whole time, Jay had been playing with Yasen's mind, manipulating him into doing something he wanted him to do. Just like how Clovis manipulated his opponent, Jay managed to get into Yasen's mind.
As the principal said, Jay actually couldn't go back up. In fact, his foot was swollen.
It took a while to show, but that kick was actually effective. Jay simply hid that fact the whole time.
Because Jay realized he couldn't fight for much longer, Jay planned to defeat him in this move.
"…" Yasen suddenly felt intense pressure. He didn't know in his current condition whether he could take Jay's hit or not. After all, Jay was planning to put everything in this strike, especially when Yasen couldn't use a good stance to receive the attack.
Yasen gritted his teeth. He couldn't help but notice the cold gaze coming from the VIP room.
They had lost all their fights, so Tesron was definitely going to beat them up after this. Yasen had no choice but to win this fight.
'Never mind. I have to do it!' Yasen gathered all the strength he could and punched down.
However, Jay actually retracted his stance a bit so that he would be out of Yasen's reach.
"!!!" Yasen widened his eyes in shock.
Jay actually used his swollen foot as the center while manipulating the center of his gravity with his other foot. With this, Jay could hit Yasen with the ranged attack, while Yasen could do nothing but block it.
Jay took a deep breath. He recalled all the training and swings he had so far. Even though he couldn't claim to be stronger than Clovis, his hard work should pay off.
He activated the beast soul to increase his speed, strength, and momentum. Then, he used the Hard Sword to amplify his ranged attack's power.
Seeing Yasen, who could do nothing but put both of his arms in front as he dove to the ground, Jay swung his blade.
"Kh!" Yasen already gritted his teeth, preparing to receive this attack. Even if it was too much, his equipment should be strong enough to withstand it. He had positioned himself in a way that Jay couldn't target other parts of his body.
Even if he were to be blown away by this powerful attack, he would win because Jay would lose all his advantage if he couldn't defeat him with this slash.
'I will win!' Yasen shouted inwardly as Jay's saber actually struck him.
"!!!" Yasen widened his eyes in shock. Jay was supposed to use the ranged attack to reach him, but for some reason, his blade could actually reach his gauntlets.
When Yasen was too focused on taking the attack head-on, Jay actually twisted his body a bit more, changing his center of gravity to a bit forward, allowing his blade to actually hit Yasen's gauntlet.
Yet, the more shocking thing was that this attack didn't pack a lot of punch. The moment Yasen took a peek at what was going on, he witnessed Jay's saber leaving his hand as though he didn't have enough strength to grab it anymore.
'No. There's no way he doesn't have enough po—!' Yasen panicked. As he expected, Jay wasn't done. In fact, it was a deliberate action for him to let go of that sword.
Jay suddenly extended his hand, grabbing Yasen's arm before slamming him to the ground.
Yasen hurriedly grabbed Jay's arm and snapped it, yet Jay didn't show any change in expression. He simply grabbed the sword with his other hand and slashed Yasen's neck.
