On a distant hill, Arthur watched the two fight, a deep sense of helplessness rising within him... This was not a battle he could interfere in.
Behind Arthur, Mordred had been buried in the ground, with only her head exposed. A handkerchief had been stuffed into her mouth, leaving her able to make only muffled "mmph" sounds.
Mordred was ultimately no match for Arthur. Considering that Little Mo was his "son," Arthur had been holding back the entire time while observing the battlefield, wanting to verify whether what Higashino Kanade had said was true.
Once Solomon truly appeared, Arthur no longer had the mood to play with his "son." The Counter Force had sent him here to save the world; compared to his bargain-bin son, his mission was more important.
So Arthur stopped holding back, efficiently knocked Mordred down, and buried her in the dirt. Since Mordred had kept cursing at him throughout, he had no choice but to gag her, resulting in the scene before them.
Watching Higashino Kanade and Solomon fight with such wild abandon, their fist-to-flesh style deeply shook Arthur. While enjoying the spectacle, he could not help but struggle internally: If what Higashino Kanade said was true, and Solomon was the one who became a Beast, should I help Higashino Kanade deal with Solomon later?
Bang bang bang bang bang—
Higashino Kanade swung his fists rapidly. In the collision of fists, his hands shattered countless times, and countless wounds appeared across his body, only to instantly heal under the restoration of the Great Sage Body and Avalon.
Solomon was in much the same condition as Higashino Kanade. With his "knuckle dusters," he had fought Higashino Kanade to a sixty-forty split. His injuries were no fewer than Higashino Kanade's, but every wound on his body was healed
