Disputed Territory: Law of Nature.
“Feel the rage, the powerful, pure rage of not being able to forgive will become your unswerving drive to take action.”
25.04.22 Unknown Territory
Although creating a beautiful landscape, the weather was hard to bear for a human's body. Especially for someone who's been traveling for a long time. The icy air hitting his face was like sword blades. A thick layer of perfectly white snow not only made it difficult to move around, but also covered all traces that helped in the navigation of the searched place. In this way, turning the forest into a labyrinth in which the wanderer could not find himself at all. He was walking around back and forth for hours, feeling as if he was standing in the same place all the time. He was aware that he was moving, but the image he saw in front of him seemed the same. He felt as if he was asking different people for their opinions on a given topic and everyone gave the same answer. No different perspective at all.
At one point, the wanderer felt so confused that he sat down exhausted on the ground, not paying attention to the fact that he would get his clothes wet and freeze even more. He was too tired and angry to worry about it. However, his rest did not last long. As he was about to close his eyes, he heard a terrible scream. Without hesitating to be in the possible danger, he threw himself in the direction from which the sound was coming.
"After all, it doesn't have to be anything that threatens my life. Maybe someone's hurt and needs help."
He said softly under his breath, as he pushed his way through the trees. However, the closer he was to the sound, the more his self-confidence and sense of safety decreased. With each step, the man's scream was filled with even bigger suffering. The wanderer began to understand that nothing good would happen to him there, and yet he kept moving forward as fast as he could. He only stopped when he noticed dark red spots on the snow. Fresh enough to tell from the metallic smell, that it must be blood. The wanderer slowed down, but continued moving towards the unpleasant noises. When he got there, he saw a little boy sitting on the ground and noticed tears streaming down his face. At first glance, he did not seem injured. However, alongside the screams he heard earlier, there was another strange sound. As if the wolf was tearing its prey.
The wanderer came closer to the boy, but what he saw made him lose his mind. There was a man lying on the ground near the child. Although what was left of him could not be called that. The torn parts of the man's body were dropped around the small area, but what was still ripping off his muscles, with its teeth, was not an animal. It looked like a human being, but the bloodshot red eyes, claws, and fangs was proof that this creature was not the creation of a man, or a god. This monster devastating the man's body looked like a demon. So the wanderer immediately grabbed the katana that he always carried with him. He threw himself at the monster, taking advantage of the fact that it was still busy with its victim. As far as the man was afraid, the only thing that mattered to him was protecting the boy. Therefore, when he knocked over the demon, he grabbed its hands and pressed it to the ground with his knee. However, just as he was about to behead the monster, a terrible scream escaped the little boy's mouth.
"Leave him alone! Please, don't hurt him!"
The boy started running towards them, but the wanderer stopped him. After all, it was not safe for a child to approach such a beast.
"Don't hurt him! Please! He's not a monster at all! Listen to me!"
The wanderer felt as if he had been hit in the face. He really didn't know what to think about this strange request. At one point the man lost his temper and scolded the boy angrily.
"What the hell are you saying?! Are you stupid kid ?! Look at that fucking beast that dismembered another human in front of you. He may look a bit like a person, but he is surely not!"
The wanderer looked closely at the still struggling demon. It did, in fact, resemble a young man to some extent. The facial features and silhouette were human like. However, rage and the will to murder were what did not allow him to trust him. Even the beautiful blonde hair that gave it softness did not allow him to change his mind. The only thing that was human for sure was the blood of a murdered man that covered his entire body. Or so it seemed to the wanderer.
"How can you stop me?! How can you defend this thing?! Don't you understand that if I hadn't caught it, you'd end up like that poor man? You want to turn into a bag of bones and flesh?" The wanderer's voice began to break "So tell me why are you defending this thing?"
Puzzlement crossed the boy's face, as if his intentions were not obvious. But the lack of an answer was a clear sign for the wanderer. Still, he didn't want to kill the demon right away, because there was something in the boy's eyes that told him that the monster was important to him. Therefore, he decided to force an answer from him. Thus he made a quick katana move and stabbed the demon in the back. The monster screamed terribly. The boy, on the other hand, fell to his knees and began to cry.
"I told you not to hurt him! He suffers tremendously without it. I thought that at least you would understand it and you would not try to suppress him. However, you are just like everyone else. You are an ignorant person who looks at him and judges him immediately. You believe he is the devil himself, only because you do not understand why he behaves this way. Do you think you have the right to decide his fate, since you do not understand shit? Since when was your will simply the opinion of the majority?"
The wanderer was even more shocked when he heard the boy's words. One thought crossed his mind. How did he know?
"Do you realize who I am?"
The black-haired boy nodded and added a few words from himself.
"You're supposed to embody Common Sense, but apparently that is what you lack. I thought you would look differently at him. I was hoping that at least someone so objective would not judge him so blindly. However, you are dumbfounded by a society that hates him."
For the first time, you can see the wanderer from the front. Until now, his face has not been visible. However, much has not changed, because in its place there is something that resembles fog. After all, Common Sense cannot have one face.
"I just want to save you, Arata."
The boy looked just like the Asakura from his childhood. His figure itself was the embodiment of Arata's purity.
"You want to help Arata? But it's not only me! The 'demon' you hold in your steel grip is also Arata! He needs help too! Don't you see it? Don't you understand that it's not his fault, that people talk about him like he is evil? Don't you understand that he never wanted to hurt anyone? All these people gave him no choice. Arata had to become so bloodthirsty, because otherwise the society full of hatred and injustice would crush him. Perhaps he has blood on his hands, but only because he fights for survival. He has battle after battle to protect himself, and above all, me. The naivety I carry in my heart is a stigma for me in this cruel world. I need him! He protected me all the time, so I must protect him when I have a chance now. That's why, I will not let you take him away from me! You don't have to believe that what the Gaijin Killer does is ethical. However, you have no right to judge him. You have no right to raise your hand at him until you look into his eyes and understand the true pain that is radiating from them. You can't make a judgement until you look at it from Arata's perspective. You have to understand the humiliation, unfairness and brutality we experienced from gaijins. Until you realize it, don't you dare even touch him!"
As the boy spoke his last words, he ran towards Common Sense and pushed him. Before he could grab the child the Gaijin Killer managed to escape. The wanderer turned his face towards the boy and saw that the demon was already with him. He immediately ran to them, fearing that the monster would destroy the last pieces of purity left in him. The last elements that helped the Gaijin Killer to not lose his humanity.
However, when he got close, he felt stuck to the ground. The monster stood facing him, with his arms open. Behind him, there was Purity he wanted to protect, even for a sacrifice he feared.
"I told you. He wants to protect me, even at the cost of his own humanity. He has a good heart, but in this brutal world, he has to fight with all the demons that are in his head."
The boy moved to stand next to Gaijin Killer and grabbed his arm with a smile. This view made Common Sense think that the people were wrong. The Gaijin Killer had to stay alive.
***
*It was late at night when Arata was awakened from sleep. The man was fully covered in sweat, as if he had experienced some horrible dream. His whole body seemed to be aware that he was going to have an important fight and he had to sacrifice everything he had to win it.*
26.04.22 Osaka, Japan
*Last night was not very beneficial for Arata. At first, he was haunted by strange dreams that somehow reflected his feelings. Which made it difficult for him to fall asleep again. Therefore, in the morning he was hopelessly tired and also really irritated. Even so, he had to leave the warm and comfortable bed, as he had a rather busy schedule in the dojo that day. Due to the fact that he did not often conduct classes due to his primary work, when he was here, he tried to do his job as well as possible. However, during his absence, the Golden Dragon Dojo was taken care of by the coaches he employed. The thing was, that day he could not rely on their help, so when it struck seven in the morning he was already there. Although there were a few hours until the first class, he had some paperwork to do as well. Which did not bother him so much, until it turned out that someone was already in the office. Of course, it was a cute, petite but very bloodthirsty Japanese girl, Yin. Looking at how she did not respect his private space, the blonde man was not even surprised by her presence. What caught his attention was what she was actually doing. Namely, there was a picture of Swindle Shelldrake on the wall, and Yin was throwing pocket knives at it, with a complete lack of emotion on her face. As if she was playing darts with friends.*
"Should I be asking what you are actually doing, or maybe is it better to just let it go, little psychopath?"
*Arata raised an eyebrow and looked at her with a gaze full of pity. Yin just shrugged as if she hadn't accepted the insult that had been thrown at her. She just responded without any offense in her tone of voice.*
"What do I do? You can see that I'm having fun. Though it would be cooler if he was real. The photos are so boring. They don't scream, they don't cry, they don't beg for their life. They just stare at you with those dead eyes." She threw another knife straight into mentioned eye "Besides, don't call me a psychopath. I'd rather call it being involved. Not to mention, the only reason why I am doing this is because I honestly hate this garbage. I hope he will burn in hell. This is the fate of everyone who raises their hand at my Arat-Sama. Swindle can only blame himself for being a total fool. Therefore, he has to accept that the massacre of a photo with his likeness is not the worst thing that can happen to him. Hopefully, you will punish him quickly for his stupidity and ignorance. Although I sincerely regret that it will not be me who will make a final judgment on him."
*As Yin spoke, Arata sat comfortably in the black leather armchair. The man has always known that his assistant was more than crazy. Even so, he was aware of how devoted and loyal she was to him. Moreover, she was only a threat to his enemies, so that was for him quite a good advantage.*
"You don't have to worry about that. That clown has been digging his own grave for a long time, so I guess it's time to put him in there and bury him. Whether dead or alive." Arata took a deep breath before continuing "Even though I feel sorry for him sometimes, you know? The fool believes he has a chance to change his life in the big league, but all he is capable of doing is chasing a low card championship. But instead of sticking up to what is on his level, he pushes himself where there is no place for him. The fact that he even got a match against MYOJIN some time ago was a joke, because he is not good enough to be a challenger for X-Factor Championship. Not to mention the most important prize at the Proving Ground...the Grand Championship. But it turns out that this idiot can't understand where he belongs until he experiences complete humiliation. And to be honest, our match at Disputed Territory is perfect for that. You see, a lost title opportunity is something that is always painful. So imagine how crushed Shelldrake will be after losing not one, but two title shots on the same night. He will be devastated and we will be the closest one to watch his suffering. Is there a better reward for bearing with his childish behavior? I don't think so."
*Yin, who was sitting on the desk, turned towards her master. Then, with eyes full of sparkles, she added a few words.*
"A lot to lose, but more to gain. I really can't wait to see the Grand Championship in your one hand and the X-Factor Championship on the other. It's a picture worthy of a divine creation. Unless you're not going to get in the way of MYOJIN...I know you, so I realize how much you care about your people's well-being. Though I don't know if you should worry about their feelings so much. You know how fake MYOJIN is. I still don't understand why you let him come back after he betrayed The Golden Dawn. I told you, you should not listen to Jack."
*The blonde man chuckled under his breath and just shook his head. However, Yin looked at him confused, so Arata decided to explain his reaction.*
"When Jack came to me to talk on this matter, at the beginning I thought that he was crazy. I also had in the back of my head that if they had betrayed us once, they could do it again. However, when I reminded myself what was happening with MYOJIN at that time, I understood that Jack wanted to do business for us. So let me tell you in what mental state our friend was a few months ago. MYO was devastated and overwhelmed that they had lost the Outlaw Championship so quickly. Their ego was so hurt and their emotions were unstable, that it was easy to 'negotiate' with them. So we used the situation to make our organization stronger. Even so, we know that they did not join us, because they believe in our ideals. They joined, because they appreciated our strength and thought they would be able to take advantage of us. While in fact, we used MYOJIN first and let them think it was opposite to build their confidence. Especially since their interest in the Outlaw Championship was not ruining our plans. Which made it a perfect arrangement for everyone. They were pleased, because I helped them get the belt back, and I had a decent soldier in my ranks. However, we still observe them, just in case they try to do something we don't like. After all, once a traitor, always a traitor. And we can't let him do something to make our lives difficult."
*Yin frowned, then interrupted her master, before Arata could say anything else.*
"So I wasn't wrong. MYOJIN is a fake bitch. From the beginning, they weren't on our side. They did not want to change this world and help everyone who needed justice. This selfish dick is hanging with us, just to please their own ego. Though you should be careful, because no one knows what's in their head. What if they think that if he wins the Grand Championship from you, he'll take over the Golden Dawn and gain even more power? I'm just talking hypothetically."
*The man rubbed his sleepy eyes with his fingers, then answered in a calm tone of voice.*
"First, I am not losing anything. Second, MYOJIN will never take my organization away from me, because these people are here for me. Because they believe in my actions. Because they are impressed by my achievements and charisma. I am simply the perfect leader. Whilst MYOJIN is nice, that's all. What you can see is both cases.When we talk about Golden Dawn leadership and the wrestling business itself. They are not predisposed to be a leader of a group, or the face of the company. The peak of their abilities is unfortunately, reign with the midcard championship. While I'm made for bigger things. And I'm going to show it to everyone at Disputed Territory."
*After these words, Arata talked with Yin for a while, then kicked her out of the office, as she was so loud. As annoying as she was, she was quite intelligent and knew who to trust and who to consider enemies. She was Arata's additional pair of eyes.*
01.05.22 Newark, New Jersey
*With the start of May, it's time for the long-awaited, by fans of Project Honor, show called Disputed Territory II. A show that caused a lot of excitement from the moment it was announced, as the card seemed to be stuck. However, everyone's eyes were focused on one conflict in particular. The one that included Arata Asakura, MYOJIN and also Swindle Shelldrake. A conflict that took quite an interesting turn and made sure that no one, but both the most important championships at Proving Ground will be defended during the show. However, it was not an ordinary match where one mistake ruins all your chances. Each of the triple threat participants had two chances to end the evening with the title, or maybe even take the full stake. There was also a rather pessimistic option, where you could end up with nothing, but that once Arata didn't even consider. While defending the Grand Championship was a priority for the young man, he would love to win another championship and left Disputed Territory as a double champion. Which was quite possible, but certainly not easy, considering how motivated his opponents are. Therefore, despite his personal feelings towards both MYOJIN and Swindle Shelldrake, Arata had to give them his best. After all, such a chance does not happen often, so he had to use it.*
*As the shot opens, the camera immediately captures the man with blonde hair, who is sitting on the steps, separating the sectors of the stands. However, due to the fact that the recording takes place several hours before the start of the show, it is rather empty there. As for Arata himself, he also did not prepare for his performance yet. Which is obvious looking at the fact that he is not wearing wrestling gear. Instead the blonde Asian is dressed in black jeans, a white hoodie, and white sports shoes. As Arata pulls up his sleeves as per his habit, you can see a beautiful silver watch on his wrist. It is enough to get one look at his body language to realize that he is focused and incredibly calm. Which is also noticeable in the slightly unemotional tone of his voice, when he speaks for the first time.*
For someone who's always looking for a challenge, there's nothing better than situations that force you out of your comfort zone. For someone for whom ambition is an essential value, there is nothing more entertaining than receiving many different opportunities. For someone who knows their place is at the top, there is no more interesting option than to have the full stack to gain. For someone like Arata Asakura, a match at Disputed Territory II is like a perfect scenario, created by the gods themselves. However, many will probably think that I am a fool, if I enjoy something so dangerous and stressful. Perhaps I am a bit, but I would also like to ask you something. Isn't the real fool the one who only holds onto what they know and what they are good at? Someone like that would sentence themselves to be a loser for their entire life, because they will never get better than they are right now. Such people will reach their peak before they even get closer to finding out their real potential. And to be honest, it's a sad approach and I think it hurts me even more, because I've seen it way too many times. But what's worse is watching people, who are still trying to pretend that they can do more than they already did. Even if in that way, they only make themselves look stupid, because of their desperate acts. However, it is not the only case. Those who do not know their place are also fools. Those who do not understand that hierarchy is everywhere and that attempts to deceive it will always end with death. It does not matter if it is literal or not. You cannot cheat the laws of nature. The strongest will always be on top, and the weaker ones can only look in their direction and dream that they were born strong. Although there will always be someone who will want to fight this system. However, each such person quickly begins to understand how small they are, compared to those sitting on the top of the mountain. Which is starting to make them lose confidence and even remnants of hope held in their hearts. Moreover, they start to become a complete ruin that cannot be saved anymore. And why is it like that? It is only because they misjudged their position and ignored the hierarchy. Maybe if they had accepted their fate from the beginning, they would have led an average but happy life. However, some are so reluctant to admit their weakness, that this scenario almost never happens. There is no happy ending. And this is exactly the case with everything related to the double championship match at Disputed Territory. Mainly, my opponents.
*The man brushes back the strands of blond hair, falling across his face. Then his expression changes a little. A gentle smile appears on it.*
If some of you haven't understood yet, let me explain. Though it seems obvious to me that the comment about not knowing your place is directed at Swindle Shelldrake. I know that some people do not have more than two IQ's and it can be difficult for them to guess. Either way, Swindle has a self-esteem much higher than how others actually see him as a competitor. He thinks in his head that he is an amazing wrestler, who can adapt to any opponent. He blindly believes he can easily change fighting styles and thus has an advantage over every single person on this roster. However, there is one thing that makes his belief to have no sense. Namely, that even if it all sounds decent, there is no confirmation of these words.Let's look at it logically. If he was like a chameleon that could fit into any environment, would he have such a shitty overall record? I understand that everyone has a right to make a mistake, but this guy is hardly able to win his matches at all. What's more, most of the victories in his record are those that he gained thanks to the competence of his teammates. So the conclusion is simple. All this chatter about his versatility and good in-ring knowledge, is just a fake story, that is supposed to scare the opponent. However, someone with so much experience cannot be fooled like a small child. Not gonna lie, you could have tried harder if you want some to be scared of such a weakling, Swindle. Though it seems to me, there may be one more option. What am I talking about? Well, I feel that Swindle wants to convince you of his alleged professionalism. In this way, he wants to push himself to a higher league than he thinks that he belongs to. Unfortunately, words and actions are two different things. So if you don't tell the truth about yourself from the beginning, you'll be exposed quickly. When that happens, no one will be able to take you seriously. And that's probably why this whole fucking roster thinks you're a joke. I truly have a hope that you understand one thing. It didn't change just because you pushed yourself into the championship match, bitch boy.
*Along with these words, a grimace appears on the face of the blonde man, and his tone of voice becomes harsher.*
Let's make one thing obvious, Swindle. You shouldn't be in the same ring as MYOJIN and myself, because you're too weak to be in this spot. Since you came to this company, you haven't proved you deserve to be here. The only reason you're in this match is because of your reprehensible behavior. For which this useless management should eventually start to punish, not reward you. But what do I even expect from these gaijins? I guess they need more time to realize that this way the rest of these idiots will start to unleash chaos, instead of trying to earn their title shots. Just because it worked for a loser like Swindle Shelldrake. And maybe you don't care about how you got the chance for the X-Factor Championship earlier, or for both belts right now. But for me, it's just pathetic and uninspiring. Besides, it is simply annoying. Shouldn't you be treated like everyone else? Myself or MYOJIN had to go through condetnership matches. So I guess those are the gaijin privileges that so many people think I imagine? Welp, you can see for yourself, that it is not only a figment of my imagination. You can figure out for yourself how unfair it is. And as long as I would be able to accept it somehow, if it were a big money player...In this case it is just Swindle Shelldrake. Some fucking rookie that nobody heard about, until he signed with Project Honor. This is someone who cannot even be called a prodigy, because he emanates with mediocrity. I really don't get how insane you have to be to allow someone so average to be so close to the championship. Championships, which he has no chance to win anyway. I start to believe that someone here is very desperate to believe that this boy has a chance to make a difference in this industry. Or someone is a sadist who likes to watch wild animals tear the poor little lamb apart. If that's the case, then I don't know what disgusts me more. The absurdity of management, or the fact that Swindle lets himself be so humiliated, just to get five minutes of fame. Damn, Swindle. it's probably too late, but a word of advice. Try to grow some balls, because with this approach you aren't even a pussy.
*Arata shrugs his shoulders disrespectfully, before moving on with his speech.*
On the one hand, it's pretty cute how much you care about being in the spotlight. Moreover, it is really touching how much you are enjoying it, Swindle. The problem is, you probably don't understand what is the reason for all the people looking in your direction. So let me tell you and break the bubble. You are getting all this attention only because you are standing next to me or MYO. So enjoy your big match tonight, but rest assured, what seems to be your dream will be a fucking nightmare. Be aware that this clash is not a fight of three equal rivals. You are just third-wheeling me and MYOJIN. And this is the highest position you can get in this company, so congratulations. Open the bottle of shampagnee and celebrate, because that is your fucking peak.
*With the last sentence being said, the man ends the topic of Swindle Shelldrake. Instead, the Japanese man moves on to someone who is much closer to him.*
During our tag team match a few weeks ago, I decided to let go the talk about MYOJIN. All in all, this random match wasn't important, and I didn't want to create unnecessary conflicts between the members of The Golden Dawn. However, this time we're on completely different territory, so I'm not going to bite my tongue anymore. I am going to tell you what I really think about MYOJIN, though many of you are surely aware of my feelings. Therefore, we will start with a pretty essential topic, which even if it was a thing long ago, cannot be omitted. Namely, I am talking about the moment when MYOJIN turned their back from The Golden Dawn. They stuck a knife in our back, despite the fact that they had previously promised their loyalty and willingness to fight for a better world. In this way showing how fake and full of shit they are. However, it soon turned out that they only joined us to feel relevant in Strong Style Wrestling. Without me and Golden Dawn,they were overshadowed by the rest of the roster. Over time, however, MYOJIN started feeling overconfident and made a mistake that had long-lasting consequences. Not only were they absorbed by the shadows again in the SSW, but also in OWA. The place that at the time was my fucking kingdom. And honestly, it was really sad to watch for me, as someone who saw a huge potential in them. The thing is, you can justify it with the fact that he was new to these companies. After all, it is always easier for those who have been in a comfortable position for a long time. I started wondering about one thing.Wouldn't it be the same with me, if I had gone to what MYOJIN calls a second home? Hence, the idea of signing a contract with Project Honor appeared in my head. So you can thank MYO for contributing to bringing you a top tier competitor. Anyway, my point is that my presence here and my iron grip on the Grand Championship proves something. It shows that this entire conversation of being on the side, just because you are in an unfamiliar environment is bullshit. If you have what it takes, then you are able to make it everywhere. All you have to do to understand it, is to look at me and how long it took me to get the most valuable title, that belongs to Proving Ground. I haven't been in this company even for a year, and I've won that fucking title twice. While MYOJIN has been here from day one, and it has taken ages for somebody to think about giving them a chance to challenge for the X-Factor Championship. Of course, I do not underestimate the fact that they have the most wins in the entire company. But it is only because they have twice as many matches as most of this roster. I also do not ignore the fact, that they are the longest-reigning champion in Project Honor. The thing is, I get the feeling that everyone is missing one thing. This is midcard belt. It's obvious that it's easier to keep it for a long time, because big money players focus on what is equivalent to the World Championship. In this case, it's my Grand Championship. While you are left with those inferior scraps of this brand, MYOJIN. However, I don't want anyone to misunderstand me. I don't think, that the X-factor Championship is worthless. Moreover, while going to the ring tonight, I will not only be thinking about defending my belt, but also about getting yours, MYO. The thing is, it's not for the same reason as you did. I don't want the X-Factor Championship, because I desperately need it to prove my worth. Because we all know how anxious about your skills you are, even if you are hiding it behind a mask of arrogance. I want the X-Factor Championship, because that's my fucking whim, and also because I have to think about the future. After all, without it, I won't get the Triple Crown or Grand Slam position. So here we can see quite a distinct difference. What is embodiment of your career is, just a small development of mine, MYO.
*The man runs a hand over his blond beard, then quickly starts talking again. As if he did not want to lose the thought, that is now in his head.*
I guess that after what I said, you understand what our relationship looks like, MYO. You are useful to me and my authority is beneficial to you, so we stick together. The thing is, that doesn't mean I trust you. Moreover, I still consider you a fucking coward and a traitor. I'm still furious that you dared bite the hand that fed you. However, I also appreciate your courage that you were not afraid to come back. You really must have felt desperate, that you went back to someone you actually despise. Surprised that I know this? I guess, I would have to be stupid not to see it. These fake smiles and nice talks will not fool me. But this is just my ability to pay attention to details. What showed me clearly what you think about me, was the way you talk about my Golden Dawn. You talked about us like you don't want to be placed on an equal footing with us. It is always "them", not "us". It is always an excuse that you do not believe in our ideology. Which we weren't going to force you to do. Being part of a group is voluntary. But don't you think this is a bit of hypocrisy, MYO? If you believe that we are pure evil, with which you do not want to have too much in common, you should not use our power and opportunities. Which is starting to be quite annoying when I see your behaviour here. I am getting sick when I see you pretending to be so honorable in Project Honor. If only all these kids who don't watch anything else, but this one company found out the truth, they'd be devastated. They would all lose faith in you if someone told them, you are part of a terrorist group. And there's no excuse, that you didn't directly participate in the attack at London. It doesn't matter that you didn't stab anyone in the dojo of Azumi Goto. By hanging out with us, you are equally responsible for everything that happened. You also have blood on your hands, MYOJIN. So I hope that just wanting to get the Outlaw Championship back was worth it. I hope your selfish whims will help you stifle the suffering of the people you have hurt for such a childish reason.
And this is the face of the company you want to be? Should the brand's representative be a lying, disloyal and selfish son of a bitch? I don't think so, MYO. Perhaps, I am also not the nicest person in the world, but at least I am always honest. Which still makes me more moral than you would ever be. So stop this bullshit about being the face of the company. Be ashamed that you dare to call yourself the Ace. Perhaps you are good at your level, which is why you held this title for so long. However, the title of the Ace has to be earned with big things. To be able to call yourself that, you have to reach the very top. While you are just a midcarder. And this is how it always will be.
*The Japanese man snorts under his breath with pity, then moves on to the final part of his speech.*
I love that every time there is a championship in the game, it all comes down to the same overrated concept. As always, it was impossible to do without bitching about dreams. Of course, we couldn't call it a day if MYOJIN didn't announce to the whole world on social media that they would make history by becoming the first one to own these two particular championships. Unfortunately for them, this thought will still remain in the sphere of their dreams, because that is my destiny in Project Honor. It is me who will leave Disputed Territory as a double champion. Because I am the true Ace of this brand. Because I have the best predisposition to make this company reach their heights. What can MYOJIN do with their B + player mentality? What profit can bring someone as insignificant as Swindle Shelldrake? This fucking idiot is literally the only person, who is not even bringing a thing into our match tonight. Let alone being useful for the entire industry.
While MYO is much better than this idiot, neither of them have what it takes to be Grand Champion. The only hope they have left in this match is to capture the X-Factor Championship. The only problem with this is that I am interested in both championships and nothing less. And as I said before, I take both of them home.
You may think that I am overconfident. You may think this approach will lead me to make the same mistake I did with Emmanuelle. However, neither of these two is Emmy. As far as this nasty bitch pisses me off, she has already shown that she is doing well with a top belt. While neither MYO nor Swindle touched the World Championship in their entire career. So it shouldn't be strange to feel like a favorite in this match. After all, there is probably an obvious difference in experience between someone who is closer to scoring ten World Title reigns, and someone who has issues with winning at least one.
*Arata's face took on a rather serious expression, as the last words came out of his mouth. *
It doesn't matter if you like me, or hate me. I don't give a fuck if you want your favorites to succeed in this match. I am not a Make-A-Wish organization. Regardless of what you want, Arata Asakura will not only remain Grand Champion, but will also raise the X-Factor Championship high. Even if I end up with the blood on my hands at the end of that night.
*Along with this sentence, the screen fades black, which is a clear sign that the recording is over. Seeing that people started gathering in the arena, Arata went backstage to begin his warm up.*
