The man in the cloak concentrated.
"Skill activation, Analyze."
He said while focusing on Black Star. Immediately after that, a black panel appeared with white writing floating before him:
[Analyze Skill Activated]
[Skill: Analyze lvl N/A
Type: Active
Mana Usage: None
Cooldowns: None
Effect: Provides information on the selected target.
Side effects: None]
Shortly after, the writing on the black panel changed:
[Name: Unknown
Alias: Black Star
Level: Unknown
Category: Beyond S (unmeasurable, predicted)
HP: Unknown
MP: Unknown
Attack Type: Unknown
Weaknesses: Unknown]
The man in the cloak said.
"Damn, I already thought that he must be beyond S…."
On the other hand, Black Star stopped his steps.
"How long are you going to just stand there?"
Black Star turned towards the man in the cloak on the rooftop. The man in the cloak was shocked.
"Damn, since when did he know I was here?"
Black Star concentrated and flew up with a hard stomp that shattered the concrete surface he was standing on and, in no time, had hovered several meters in front of the man in the cloak, taking him by surprise. Black Star said.
"Anything you want to say to me?"
The man in the cloak answered.
"Black Star… I want to confirm something. What are you doing?"
Black Star looked at his skyscraper-shaped starship carriers as he answered.
"You mean all this?"
Black Star looked back at the man in the cloak.
"This is all because they were trying to prevent me from carrying out the attacks. So, I held the Pentagon hostage for a while, but even so, they didn't seem afraid to attack me."
The man in the cloak replied.
"What do you mean hostage? You have gone too far."
Black Star replied.
"I won't give the details. But you don't have to worry, I'll release them back when my plan is done."
Black Star said lightly. The man in the cloak entered the stance about to attack and positioned his gauntlet before him.
"Stop now or I will force you to stop."
Black Star looked unfazed.
"Does that supposed to be a warning? I will not stop, whatever you will do."
The man in the cloak said.

"Skill activation, Fire Fist"
A black panel with white writing appeared on his left:
[Fire Fist Skill Activated]
[Skill: Fire Fist lvl 2

Cooldown: 20 seconds (19 remaining)

Side effects: None]
Massive flames blazed and soared from the man in the cloak's left gauntlet; he punched at Black Star with his left hand. The huge flame shaped like the left gauntlet shot and extended towards Black Star, then hit him, causing a huge flames explosion momentarily. After the attack was completed, all the fire then dispersed. The man in the cloak was surprised that Black Star was alright and only pushed a few meters from where he was initially hovering. The man in the cloak thought.
"What the hell? My attacks have no effect on him."
On the other hand, even though Black Star was alright, he was surprised too. Black Star thought.
"Even though his attacks have no effect on me, he can make me pushed backwards up to several meters. What a powerful thrust…."
Black Star clenched his right fist, then darted swiftly towards the man in the cloak.
The man in the cloak immediately pulled his cloak with his left hand, and he positioned it forward to parry. Black Star quickly closed the distance with the man in the cloak, then punched him with his right hand. With the man in the cloak's precise timing, Black Star's fist only hit the cloak; the immense force of the fist collided with this cloak and caused a wind blast that spread in all directions. Without Black Star could see, two black panels with white writing appeared to the right and left of the man in the cloak:

How shocked Black Star was that his attack didn't even cause the man in the cloak to flinch. Black Star thought.
"What happened? How could he not even budge from my attack?”
The man in the cloak said.
“Item effect activation, Blink.”
A black panel with white writing appeared next to the man in the cloak:
[Blink Boots item effect activated]
[Item Effect: Blink lvl N/A
Effect Type: Active
Damage Type: None
Mana Usage: None
Cooldown: 20 Seconds (19 Remaining)
Effect: Blink to any area within the effect range.
Side effects: None]
The man in the cloak suddenly reappeared behind Black Star, once again causing Black Star to be surprised. Black Star thought.
"Since when…."
The man in the cloak said.
“Skill activation, Wind Fist”
A black panel with white writing appeared next to the man in the cloak:
[Wind Fist Skill Activated]
[Skill: Wind Fist lvl 2
Skill Type: Active
Damage Type: Magical
Mana Usage: -50 (400/500 Remaining)
Cooldown: 20 seconds (19 remaining)

Side effects: None]
A grayish-white whirlwind swirled violently, covering the man in the cloak’s right gauntlet; he then punched Black Star's body from behind; the whirlwind violently smashed into Black Star's body and sent him dragging forward several meters, causing him to falter. But unfortunately, this attack did not cause Black Star the slightest damage, shocking the man in the cloak, who then thought.
"Looks like wind element attacks have no effect on him, and the armor makes him invulnerable. Dammit… I have to strengthen my attacks."
Black Star immediately turned towards the man in the cloak.
"I admit your attacks are strong enough to push me away, but there is something that makes me curious about you."
The man in the cloak looked astonished. From the view behind his metal mask, Black Star analyzed the man in the cloak and displayed the following information:
"Status: Not registered in the database
Name: Unknown
Alias: Unknown
Occupation: Unknown
Power Type: Magic (Predicted)
Estimated threat level: A (Still counting)
Storing enemy data…."
Black Star looked astonished as he thought.
"He wasn't registered in my database. Did he just show up recently?"
Black Star said.
"Your information is not in my database, who exactly are you?"
The man in the cloak answered.
"I'm just a wanderer looking for answers, something like that."
Black Star looked astonished.
"Well, it's up to you."
Black Star got into the stance and rushed towards the man in the cloak with a hard starting stomp that shattered the concrete surface he was standing on.
The man in the cloak didn't flinch; he pulled his cloak and positioned it forward to block. Once again, Black Star's fist hit this cloak with such force that it caused a wind blast that spread everywhere. Receiving such a powerful attack did not make the man in the cloak flinch, causing Black Star to be shocked again. Black Star thought.
"What the hell is going on here…."
At the same time that Black Star's fist hit the cloak, two black panels with white writing appeared to the right and left of the man in the cloak:
