"Urk~!" Jessi grunted, stealing a glance at James who was suffering just like him. No matter how hard she tried to activate any of her skills, nothing happened. For some odd reason, she felt more exhausted the more she attempted to expend her energy. It was even worse when she tried to use her superpowers to break free.

"Don\'t do anything, he\'s using some sort of energy drain on us," James used all his strength to warn Jessie since she was already panicking.

While the energy drain was ongoing, the audience was on the edge of their seats while both the commentator and Luke started talking about the usability of Link\'s aforementioned skill. No one talked about it but everyone was worried since Link didn\'t seem to be deactivating his skill any sooner.

And Jessie and James who were receiving the full brunt of the attack were beginning to shrivel up as all the life were drained out of them. They weren\'t grunting in pain anymore, now they started screaming as if they were being tortured to death.

Little did everyone realize that Link had finally snapped. He had lost control over his Trinity Beast Integration and now his limiter was automatically removed, causing him to display more power than normal. A sinister grin appeared on his face as if he was evil incarnate, and he stared down at Jessie and James, seemingly enjoying the excruciating pain they were in. A chuckle could be heard under his breath as he continued with the attack.

"Oi, don\'t you think that\'s about enough?" Kim Jin Seok asked, slowly approaching Link. A couple of moments ago, he felt an evil aura emanating from Link. All the hairs on his back stood, causing him to turn around. That\'s when he realized that Link had finally lost it, and he was slowly killing both Jessie and James.

Link whirled his head towards Kim Jin Seok, the sinister smile was still etched on his face— a grin from ear to ear that showed almost all his teeth. Even with his contorted appearance, Kim Jin Seok was still unfazed. He was confident that he could do easy work on Link if he were to attack him. Nevertheless, he didn\'t want to needlessly rile up Link, that\'s why he tried to look and sound as calm as possible, all the while approaching him in a slow manner so he won\'t lash out as per his reflex.

"Shut up, you useless coward." Link growled as his head leaned sideways. He then turned away from Kim Jin Seok as he continued draining the living daylights out of his two opponents.

Now, for a normal superhero (or a beast tamer for that matter), it was normal to gall unconscious as soon as they expended most of their energy. The same could be said when they lost control of their superpower or skill. This was the normal bodily response since the body couldn\'t take the extra workload imposed on it.

However, for Link, it was different.

The normal bodily response didn\'t apply to him at all. In fact, what applied to him was the exact opposite. Link was also not aware of this special skill of his... which allowed him to go past his limit, but his sanity would suffer in return. Whenever he loses control, an impulse would be sent to the brain which causes his body to release adrenaline.

This response causes Link to temporarily lose his mind while he fought like a wounded animal. Some called this rare bodily response a \'dazed state\', or in simple terms \'drunken state\' or \'berserk state\'. Whatever the term was, it affected Link greatly. Just like what happened during his fight against Jana in the first round, he lost control once again,

BAM!

As soon as Link turned away from Kim Jin Seok, he felt a great force on the back of his head. Apparently, Kim Jin Seok grabbed him by the nape and forced his face onto the floor. A resounding \'bam\' soon followed as Link\'s face was buried on the grand stage. At the same time, he lost his grip on both Jessie and James.

"What did you say? Useless coward? Say that again." Kim Jin Seok gritted his teeth as he slammed Link\'s face on the floor for a second time. "Say it!"

As Kim Jin Seok continuously slammed Link\'s face on the ground, some of the audience mumbled amongst themselves, wondering whether they should side with Kim Jin Seok or with Link. On one hand, Link somewhat deserved the treatment he was getting right now since he almost killed Jessie and James in cold blood. On the other hand, Kim Jin Seok\'s violence was also getting out of hand. And the bloodied face of Link was displayed a couple of times towards the audience every single time he lifts his face, then slam it on the ground again.

Catching their breaths, both Jessie and James crawled out of the way in hopes that they won\'t be part of the one-sided beating that instantly came to pass. They were worried that maybe Kim Jin Seok would also direct his wrath toward them. That\'s why they moved as far away as possible.

Fortunately, James was not as disoriented as Jessie. He was in his right mind to summon another tamed beast of his which specializes in healing and health regeneration. "I\'m counting on you, all right," James mumbled as he summoned his tamed beast.

It didn\'t take long before the two of them, Jessie and James, had enough energy to sit down. And while they were trying to replenish their energy, they watched as Kim Jin Seok kept Link\'s face on the ground.

Fwooosh~!

Much to Kim Jin Seok\'s surprise, the brat he was holding down suddenly disappeared, and he reappeared right in front of Jessie and James. Licking his lips, Link summoned his vines once again. This time, it was evident on his face that he fully intended to kill the two.

All the colors drained from Jessie and James\'s faces as the vines enwrapped them once again. They barely recovered their energy thanks to James\'s tamed beast, and now they were going to lose it all again... probably for good since they were going to die.

"I\'m not done talking with you." Kim Jin Seok gritted his teeth as he appeared in front of Link. This time was different. Instead of grabbing him by the nape, he grabbed him by his face and slammed the back of his head on the ground. A splatter of blood formed where Kim Jin Seok smashed his head.

Kim Jin Seok was not yet done, however. This time, he smashed both Jessie\'s and James\'s heads on the ground. They were instantly sent to the dreamland, and victory was finally given to both Link and Kim Jin Seok.

There were plenty of chances where Jessie and James could\'ve forfeited the match. They even went to great lengths just to replenish their energy. Kim Jin Seok figured that they really wanted to win the match, and were probably waiting for their opportune moment to come so they could snag the victory from them.

Because of that, Kim Jin Seok had no choice but to knock them both out before he dealt with the troublemaker that is Link.

As soon as both Jessie and James were out of commission, the referee raised his hand and the commentator announced who the clear winners were. Meanwhile, Kim Jin Seok was still not done with Link. With his hand transformed into a huge beast claw, he grabbed Kim Jin Seok by the face before dragging him out of the grand stage. He didn\'t forget to make a bow toward the audience before he headed to the exit.

"You\'re coming with me." Kim Jin Seok said. It seems like his fury was not yet appeased. His eyes shone a clear intent that he wanted to beat up Link until he was black and blue.

Kim Jin Seok\'s eyes then glowed a nice purple glow as he created a portal in the middle of the grand stage. Before anyone could react, he threw Link inside the portal. He also went inside it, and the portal closed as soon as jumped in.
