Gonto was not using any type of weapons and was only fighting using his teeth and claws. On the other hand, Youlius was using two of them. The weapon of his choice was a large axe and a large hammer. He was dual wielding them and was using those super heavy weapons with just one hand. This was the proof of his superhuman physical strength.

Since his birth, Youlius was physically very powerful and superior to even adults. That was the reason why he developed a habit of solving all of his problems with fists and violence as it really was the easiest way to solve any dispute for him. That was how he created this muscle headed personality of his.

But as he was using two large weapons, he was quite slow. So there was no way that he would be able to land a hit on Tomoe who was extremely fast. But if somehow he was able to land even a single hit, Tomoe could get badly injured from that. So she was very cautious about dodging all his attacks.

Tomoe was doing her best to land a few strikes of her own, big getting too close to his was dangerous. That was because of the tentacles like bandages floating around him. This was a special magic item that Youlius had told a great alchemist to make after spending a lot of money.

He knew that his main weakness was his speed and there were quite a few times he was unable to land even a single hit on his opponents even though they were overwhelmingly weaker than him. This was one of the most boring fights of his life. So for that reason, he ordered for these items that could wrap around a person and that way their speed would drop. If the physical strength of the captured person was not good enough there was a good chance that the person would not be able to even move.

Even if Tomoe got caught by the bandage, she would still be able to move without any problems but her speed would definitely slow down which could be very dangerous against an opponent of the same level. So Tomoe was taking a cautious action.

Youlius found this to be boring and so he started to taunt Tomoe. Even though those taunts were not enough to disturb Tomoe's metal state, she did increase the intensity of her attacks. That was not because she was to vent her anger on this man but because after fighting him for this much time, Tomoe had become very familiar with his fighting style and his powers. So now she was going to take some risks to increase her chance of defeating him.

...

Just as Tomoe was about to get serious, Gonto was going to do the same. After getting weakened by that poison, he found out that even with his special transformation be was unable to defeat Selena in a short amount of time. And as he had a time limit on his transformation, he was getting desperate as time was passing by.

At first he still had some hope as there was also another S ranker here who was on his side. But it turned out that this lady was also not alone and she also had a helper. Taking a look at that battle he judged that Youlius would not be able to finish the battle quickly enough. At least not quickly enough to be of assistance to him. Gonto cursed his partner's incompetence in his mind and decided to go all out in desperation.

His intention was not to defeat the lady before him but to find a chance of escaping. His animal instinct was telling him that there was another S ranker here. And if that was the case then his life was in grave danger. He was very much willing to run away in disgrace than to die a brave death. So he immediately took action after making up his mind.

First he transformed back into his humanoid form and then he took out a bottle filled with many blue pills. Then he swallowed the whole bottle and immediately after that his body started to glow with a bright blue light.

But that was not everything that he did. The desperate tigerkin took out a magic item that looked like a pair of mechanical bird wings. Then he attached the wings to his back and started flying away from the ship.

Selena was taken aback by this action and was not able to react timely. It was not like she was dominating the fight of anything, so she was unable to find any reason why he would try to run away at this moment when no one had any visible advantage.

As Selena was unable to react in time, Gonto was able to use this great burst of speed to create a decent amount of distance between each other and at the speed he was going, in no time he would be out of everyone's eyesight.

But before Gonto could be happy about this fact, he suddenly collided with something very hard. And as he was also going at a very high speed, this collision injured him very badly. The frontal part of his body was badly smashed up.

As he looked before him bewilderment, he was unable to find anything there.

He spread his hand before him and felt something solid there. It was the exact thing that was responsible for his accident. He immediately understood what it was. It was an invisible barrier that was covering the whole area and this barrier was extremely strong. He slashed it with his powerful and sharp claws but was unable to inflict any damage on the barrier.

He also understood the reason why the last S ranker was not participating in the battle. It turned out that the last person was extremely good at making barriers then in that case that person fighting prowess was most likely to be low. That was the reason that the last person was hiding.

It was a wrong but reasonable deduction but he truly did not have any time to think leisurely like this. The pills he took had the effect of boosting all his stats for a certain period of time but after that he would not be able to move for some time.

This side effect was also the reason why he took the pills only after releasing his transformation. If he took these pills with his transformation on, then he would have immediately died because his existence would not be able to handle this much power.

Just as Gonto was trying to master up any ounce of power that he could, a large flaming sword came toward him. It was Selena's ultimate move where he concentrated all her fiery aura and turned it into a sword. It was an extremely powerful attack. She went all out with this attack as she was not sure what this tigerkin man was trying to do.

So just like that, a S rank powerhouse fell with the regret of taking this job in his mind.
