[Photo of the monkey]
While aiden was going through the pain of colliding with the metal container, the great red monkey stared for a few seconds where aiden had fallen before turning and walking towards the warehouse exit.
'What the hell??...' - Aiden thought as he was trying to get up.
"COUGH!! COUGH!!" - Aiden coughed and a little blood came out of his mouth.
"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?..." - Aiden shouted as he watched the great red monkey walk to the warehouse exit. He knew that he shouldn't provoke him, but somehow he couldn't just leave it like this, without at least hitting the monkey first.
The great red monkey, after hearing aiden's scream, stopped and turned to look at him while raising an eyebrow in confusion, wondering how the human hadn't fainted after being hit by him.
"Don't think I'm going to let you go just like that, after you hit me." - said aiden while he had already got a little used to the pain, he activated [Reinforcement] again this time at level 3.
Golden lines of energy began to appear on certain parts of his body, but for now the most visible were the ones on his face near his eyes.
Then aiden ran towards the great monkey, determined to hit him even if his back hurts a little.
The great monkey stared at aiden thinking that he was one of those idiotic humans, but since the human wants to challenge him.
The great monkey also ran towards aiden, when they were fairly close to each other they raised his right arm and clenched his fist with force with the intention of hitting each other.
*boom*
The clash of the fists created a shock wave, aiden tried to push the monkey, since his strength with level 3 Reinforcement was no joke, but in the end he was the one who ended up being pushed back.
He backed away quickly and put his guard up to avoid being taken by surprise by the great monkey, Aiden swears that she can see the monkey smile when he sees that he won in the little game of strength.
Aiden quickly approached the great monkey trying to hit him. but the great monkey quickly punched aiden before he could do anything.
Aiden seeing that he couldn't dodge quickly placed his hands preventing the great monkey's fist from hitting his chest, his intuition tells him that it would be very painful if he did.
"Tsk" - Aiden clicked his tongue as he endured the pain in his forearms and took a few steps back. He this time he has a better position to block and has Reinforcement level 3 activated this time he won't fly away.
Minutes passed and both aiden and the monkey have not been able to hit each other. Aiden can barely dodge the great monkey's attacks, the great monkey just attacks whenever aiden gets close. Aiden dodges the punches the best he can since he didn't want to block one of his punches again, they were too heavy and after blocking two of his punches his forearm hardly felt them anymore.
"...That's all the strength you have human?" - Asked the great monkey in a bored tone and disappointed by the strength of the human who challenged him. he thought maybe it was going to be a good fight after seeing that the human had withstood one of his blows without passing out. but in the end he ended up disappointed as aiden was too weak and slow.
"CAN YOU TALK? !! ..." - Aiden yelled in surprise as he took a few steps back.
"Of course I can talk, but, back to the question, is that all the strength you have? If so, I'd better go..." - said the great monkey while he sighed and continued speaking with a bored and disappointed tone.
"...of course not, but if you give me a moment I could become stronger..." - Aiden said as he spoke more calmly. most of the anger left after the minutes passed, before he was just fighting because the monkey was a good fighter.
"Go ahead, but don't take too long" - said the great monkey as he sat down on the ground and rested his head on his left hand.
"Okay, (Sigh) okay, I know I can do it..." - Aiden said as he closed his eyes and tried to access level 6 of [Reinforcement] and be able to generate the armor of the [Spiritual Body Manifestation].
Aiden's body began to overflow with energy as the golden lines began to spread throughout his body, Aiden's body grew a few centimeters and his muscles increased, his shirt did not resist the amount of energy and he exploded.
"Fuuuuu... how difficult" - Aiden said while trying to catch his breath and calm the pain.
Aiden managed to fully access level 5, but it's already putting a lot of pressure on his body.
"That is all?...". - Asked the great monkey while seeing aiden's appearance you can see that he became stronger, if he is not mistaken, at least 40% more than when he fought with him and 100% than when he arrived.
What surprises him is the great amount of spiritual energy that he has, now that he is taking it out of his body he can tell that he has a lot of spiritual energy, but he can also tell that he has almost no control over it.
"Not yet..." - Aiden said as he gritted his teeth and pushed himself further so he could enter level 6 of [Reinforcement].
"[Spiritual body manifestation]..." Aiden said in a low voice as his body began to be covered from head to toe with a golden armor with black horns and giving his black hair began to shine like a flame.
"Ohhh...passable" - the great monkey exclaimed as he saw Aiden covered with the armor, but although he was impressed that he had managed to create it seeing how painful it was, he was not surprised since he has seen similar techniques.
The great monkey stood up as he saw aiden ready, they were almost the same size now, aiden was 2 meters tall in full armor.
"We can continue..." - Aiden said as she took a breath to calm down and adjusted her posture. Placing his left foot back while his right foot stays bent forward, he leaned his torso forward and positioned his left hand forward and his right hand a little behind, he pressed his fingers to the floor.
The monkey stares at him as he waits for Aiden to come to him.
"[Shundo]" - murmured aiden as he disappeared from the place where he was, the only thing that could be seen was a blur moving towards the monkey, shortly after aiden appeared in front of the great ape with his right fist clenched to give a strong blow to the monkey.
-----------
Aiden acts like this since he saw that the monkey wasn't fighting with killing intent, so he relaxed and just kept fighting just to hit the monkey.
