(Sky-God Arena, Finals Match 8)
Darnell stood across Leo with his signature childishness plastered all over his face as let alone trying to intimidate Leo, he did not even try to hide his amazement.
"Sir Leo…. You're definitely an amazing fighter! You almost turned me into a fanboy! I'm for sure buying your action figure after the finals are over—" Darnell said, as Leo raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Smack-Talk before a big fight he could handle.
Because smack-talk he expected.
However, such niceties before such a tense final wasn't something he could expect.
And somehow, it repulsed him even more than the worst insult.
'Agh shut your mouth or I'll shove that action figure right up your ass—' Leo thought internally, however, did not let any of his irritation reflect on his face, as he assumed his signature low fighting stance.
