Chapter 3: Battle in the Bar
Shin didn't have the time to think about it. Although his move backfired, he can't leave this place right now. He must stay within two meters range of Iron Fist for a few more minutes.
'Damn it! It seems like I don't have any choices now. Either it is to get beaten or fight back. Even if I am a person with a cautious personality, it doesn't mean I am a coward.'
'I won't get beaten actively.'
Suddenly, his sloppy and pitiful expression changed instantly. He saw Iron Fist slamming a punch toward him. This caused a reaction in the bar and the people started running out of the bar.
'It's powerful but it's not fast.'
Shin's eyes stayed on that fist as he quickly moved his upper body to the side and dodged the punch by a few centimeters.
But, the Iron Fist was also a fighter. When he saw Shin dodging his punch, he quickly understood how to counter it. He slammed his arm to the side and struck Shin in his ears.
Bam!
A powerful strike almost broke his ear. Shin fell to the ground and covered his ear. He felt extremely painful in his ears.
"You brat, you never planned to go under me. How dare you lie to me?"
Although Iron Fist managed to react quickly, he only got angrier when he finally slammed Shin to the ground.
Shin's ear was still buzzing constantly. But, he quickly overcame his pain and stared at Iron Fist.
"I have something to ask. Your father was someone who went to the Sacred Ground. Even if you didn't go there yourself, your father should've brought a lot of wealth. Why did you have to become a bandit after that?"
His words made Iron Fist pause. He looked at Shin with a little bit of confusion. But that confusion was quickly replaced with hatred.
"Don't mention that bastard in front of me! Do you want to know why I became a bandit? I will tell you. When I was just five years old, that bastard left my mother and married some young and rich woman."
"After that, he never even showed his face to us. Even when my mother was sick and dying, he never even came to visit us. Such a bastard doesn't deserve to be my father."
"Do you know why I didn't kill you before? Although I am afraid of Tyro's Family's revenge, I don't believe they still want to recruit you after seven years."
"The only reason why I didn't kill you before was that you did exactly what I did. Even when my mother was sick, I never asked for money from that bastard. I never even tried to contact him."
"But, to cure my mother, I had to earn money. I had strength. So, why would I work for someone else? So, I established my Iron Fist Bandit Group. This is the result of my strength."
"Nobody dares to go against me. Because I have that strength. A brat like you won't understand such a thing. If only you were loyal, I would've recruited you into my group."
"But since you are not, then die!"
Iron Fist clenched his fist and bent down. His fist reached near Shin but he easily dodged it by rolling to the side.
"Humph! Do you think such tricks can help you escape from me?"
Iron Fist snorted and raised his upper body. Then, he lifted his foot and kicked Shin. But, this time, Shin used his forearms to block the impact of that kick.
Even so, he was smashed into the tables.
"Shin!"
Hina who was just watching everything in shock screamed upon seeing that. Everyone except for bandits had already left the bar. So, it was quite empty.
Hearing Hina's scream, Iron Fist turned his head. Suddenly, his lips rose as he said.
"Hina, it seems like you really care about this brat. How about you give yourself to me and I will let this brat live?"
"You"
Hina's eyes widened. Although they were a group of bandits, she didn't expect him to make such a threat. She also understood why he didn't do it instantly.
After all, if the entire village tries to retaliate against them, it would be a problem. For that, he couldn't assault her. But now, he was doing the same thing by threatening her with Shin.
But, this was a problem for her. She didn't know how she feels about Shin. She wasn't even sure if this feeling was love but she definitely didn't want Shin to suffer.
When she was hesitating, a voice rang from behind.
"Cough! Cough! You bastard, do you really think you can kill me?"
Shin coughed out blood as he tried to stand up. He was looking at the window panel in front of him while speaking to Iron Fist.

This download speed was quite fast for a 10 MB file. So, it had already reached 80%. Unfortunately, he just got out of the range and the download paused.
So, he had no choice but to make Iron Fist mad and move toward him. He didn't want to regret this choice. Because he didn't want to rely just on Iron Body to fight back.
Iron Fist heard his words and his expression became hideous.
"You brat, it seems like you really want to die."
Saying so, he walked toward Shin with some intention to kill him. But, Shin was prepared for him. When he reached closer, Shin instantly caught a leg of a chair and slammed it on Iron Fist's head.
Bang! Crack!
The chair leg struck his head and broke from the middle. It made Shin stunned for a moment.
"Tch! Do you even have any idea about Iron Body? My body is strong as iron. Even if you use a knife, you can't injure me."
"I am invincible."
Iron Fist proudly spoke, leaving Shin in stunned expression. He didn't even feel like making a move until Shin reacts. But, Shin didn't react at all. Ten seconds passed by, twenty seconds passed by, and half a minute passed by but Shin didn't react at all.
"Tch! I didn't expect you to be such a coward. But even if you are a coward, you need to become a DEAD COWARD."
Iron Fist ferociously raised his leg and slammed it toward Shin's chest.
Shin quickly raised his foot and slammed it against his foot.
Bang!
For a moment, a strange collision occurred. It was a collision of strength, representing their equal strength. It stunned Iron Fist for a moment.
But, how could Shin let go of this perfect opportunity? Without even glancing at his status window, he caught Iron Fist's leg and slammed him onto the ground.
Bang!
The impact was so strong that it broke the wooden floor.
"What?"
Cough! Cough!
Iron Fist reacted in pain as he screamed. A few seconds later, he coughed out blood and quickly pulled his leg.
Shin had already let go of him. He jumped from the ground and bent his right leg as he fell toward Iron Fist's body.
Bang!
He slammed his knee against Iron Fist's back, once again heavily injuring him. But this time, his own knee was heavily injured. After all, a collision between Iron and Iron will impact both.
"Cough! Cough! You bastard!"
Iron Fist roared and jumped on his feet. His fast reaction and power threw Shin behind the counter.
Crash!
He fell on the ground and his impact caused several wine bottles to fall next to him and on him.
Iron Fist rushed toward the counter and jumped on it. He saw Shin on the ground, covered in blood from those glass pieces.
"You bastard, what happened to you? How could you get strong like me? What kind of secret are you hiding?"
For a moment, Iron Fist felt like the Tyro family had already contacted him. After all, a rich family like that could afford some methods to make him stronger.
But, he still didn't understand how Shin got stronger in the middle of a battle.
"Damn it! If you don't talk then I will kill you."
Iron Fist roared as he jumped at Shin. He was planning on crushing Shin with his foot. But, before he could jump on Shin, a broken jar of wine pierced his shoes and entered his muscles.
"Ahhhhhh"
Iron Fist screamed when he finally fell to the ground. The broken jar entered even deeper due to his action. He quickly raised his leg to pull the Jar out.
He didn't understand how a glass pierced his Iron Body.
But, at this moment, Shin had already caught another Jar and he slammed it against Iron Fist's neck.
"Argh!"
Iron Fist groaned in pain. For the first time in his life, he saw death. There was fear in his eyes. He quickly fell to his knees and held his thighs.
"Please, don't kill me! I will give you everything you want. Please, don't kill me!"
"Shin, stop or I will kill this woman!"
Suddenly, one of the bandits held the knife to Hina's neck as he shouted. But, at this moment, Shin didn't stop. He held another broken glass and pierced Iron Fist's neck from behind.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
