Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Unconsciousness
I deadass fucking hate Apple and how greedy they are, on Patreon they raise the price of everything to make more money and it's really annoying, if i sell something 10$, apple will sell it on their end at 43% more!
The fuck!?
So the buyer loses most of the time.
I advise everyone to NOT use IOS when buying things on Patreon.
No wonder some people just don't subscribe, I wouldn't too, if I happen to acquire superpowers i will nuke Apple.
And if you buy something from me using IOS, not only you pay more, but i also receive the money 75 days later!
It's so fucking outrageous, please don't come to glaze Apple or imma unlock strength and speed mastery before unleashing the meanest uppercut to date.

Daniel took a deep breath, his fingers twitching as he stared at his sleeping first body. He needed to figure this out.
The dual-body situation was a powerful gift, but the drawback was clear, whenever he switched, one body went limp. That wasn't sustainable. He needed to control both at the same time.
He sat cross-legged on the floor, rolling his shoulders before reaching over and slapping the cheek of his second body, hard. His consciousness immediately began slipping. Unconsciousness came fast, dragging him under.
He fought against it, straining to hold on. His vision wavered, and the last thing he saw was his second body stirring awake.
He had failed.
Daniel exhaled sharply, frustration bubbling up.
Again.
He slapped himself once more, trying to keep his mind in both places at once. His chest tightened as he forced himself to stay aware. But again, his consciousness snapped to one side completely.
Over and over, he repeated the process, his cheek stinging from the repeated hits while his second body remained unaffected.
Until..
Something changed.
This time, when he slapped his first body, the unconscious pull weakened. It was there, but faint. He fought back. His head throbbed as he resisted, trying to split his mind between both bodies.
His eyelids fluttered in the first body.
His vision swam.
And then..
His fat body's eyes snapped open.
Daniel's eyes widened 'Nahh I don't believe it!'
Instead of black pupils and white sclera, the colors had inverted. White pupils and black sclera.
The Reverse Eyes.
Ultra Instinct.
Lil Daniel sat up slowly, his movements were disturbingly precise. No wasted effort. Even though the body was fat and untrained, there was a quiet, predatory grace.
The air around them shifted. A weight settled in the room, subtle, but present. Daniel could feel it. It wasn't as suffocating as his own presence, but it was there.
Big Daniel narrowed his eyes, watching himself as his other self stood up fully.

Lil Daniel, moved unnaturally with an eerie precision. His eyes glowed faintly in the dim room. He had read and saw the UI before in the manhwa, but seeing it in real life was something else entirely.
'Ultra Instinct... so it really exists. The body moving completely on its own, eliminating distractions, optimizing every movement for combat. No wasted energy, no hesitation, just pure fighting instinct.'
Lil Daniel launched forward, his body a blur despite his weight. He closed the distance in an instant, his foot slamming towards Big Daniel's left midsection. Big Daniel raised his arm just in time, catching the kick on his forearm. The impact sent a shock through his bones, heavier than he expected. Lil Daniel twisted in mid-air, using Big Daniel's arm as leverage, and drove an elbow towards his chin.
Big Daniel tanked it, barely flinching. Lil Daniel flipped back, landing effortlessly with a somersault, his posture was perfectly balanced. There was no emotion on his face, no hesitation in his body language. Every movement was calculated, every strike thrown with maximum efficiency.
'He's improving as he fights. Just like in the manhwa, the more time he spends in Ultra Instinct, the more refined his movements become. His weight should slow him down, but he's compensating with technique. That Jiu-Jitsu he copied from Logan... he's applying it flawlessly.'
Lil Daniel dashed in again, ducking low before attempting a double-leg takedown. Big Daniel widened his stance, preparing to counter, but Lil Daniel anticipated this. Instead of completing the takedown, he used the momentum to roll, grabbing Big Daniel's wrist and transitioning into an armbar.
Big Daniel quickly twisted his body, negating the pressure, and yanked his arm free before Lil Daniel could fully extend it. But the moment he was free, Lil Daniel was already adjusting, shifting his weight to transition into a leg lock.
'His adaptability is insane. His knowledge of anatomy is kicking in too, he's targeting weak points, joints, and pressure areas.'
Big Daniel stomped his foot down to break the hold before it locked in. He grabbed Lil Daniel's leg and swung him up into the air before slamming him down onto the mattress to minimize damage. But Lil Daniel rolled with the force, his back barely touching the surface before he bounced up again.
Then, he punched. A straight, no-nonsense shot to Big Daniel's face. It wasn't a powerful punch, but it was placed perfectly, hitting the chin at just the right angle. Big Daniel's head snapped back slightly.
'Tch. So even his strikes are improving. He's learning how to maximize damage with minimal force. But strength is still strength.'
Deciding to test the limits, Big Daniel exhaled and started applying more power. He shot forward with a jab of his own, faster and heavier than Lil Daniel's. It landed cleanly, sending Lil Daniel stumbling back for the first time. Yet, he recovered in an instant, his foot adjusting, his stance resetting like nothing happened.
Big Daniel followed up, pressing the attack with a roundhouse kick. Lil Daniel ducked, weaving under it like he had been expecting it. He countered with a sharp knee towards the ribs. Big Daniel blocked, but the strike was precise, aiming for the liver. He smirked.
'He's aiming for the organs now. First, joints and pressure points, now internal damage. Smart. But I can't let him get too used to fighting at this level.'
Big Daniel feinted a right hook. Lil Daniel reacted instantly, attempting to dodge, but it was a bait. Big Daniel shifted mid-motion, using the momentum to grab Lil Daniel by the collar. With one swift motion, he lifted and threw him towards the wall. The impact wasn't enough to break anything, but Lil Daniel absorbed the force, rolling to his feet seamlessly.
Big Daniel flexed his fingers. 'I can see now why this is dangerous. If I let him keep going, he'll injure himself.'
Lil Daniel sprinted forward again, but this time, Big Daniel met him head-on with a frontal kick. It landed squarely in the chest, sending him skidding back. For a moment, Lil Daniel stood still. His breathing was even, his expression blank. Then, without warning, he charged again.

Big Daniel raised a brow. 'He doesn't feel pain in this state. But he also doesn't know when to stop.'
Big Daniel waited, letting Lil Daniel close the gap. The moment he got within range, he shifted his weight and delivered a spinning back kick directly to Lil Daniel's solar plexus. The air was forced out of his lungs with his body buckling slightly. But he didn't fall. Instead, he took the hit, recovered, and aimed for Big Daniel's knee with a low kick.
Big Daniel countered by twisting his torso and slamming his elbow onto the top of Lil Daniel's head. The force made the smaller body stagger, but he adapted instantly, pivoting into a sweeping kick. Big Daniel jumped over it and, before Lil Daniel could react, grabbed him by the back of his shirt.
'Enough.'
With a final motion, Big Daniel spun and slammed Lil Daniel onto the mattress again, pinning him down. He held him there for a moment, watching his struggling slow. The black sclera in Lil Daniel's eyes began to fade, returning to normal. His breath steadied, his limbs stopped moving. Then, he went limp.
Big Daniel released a breath. 'He's out. So that's the limit. Eventually, the body exhausts itself. But it's clear now, Ultra Instinct takes what you already have and uses it at 100%.'
He sat back, staring at his sleeping first body. If he could find a way to control it, to activate it at will without losing awareness, he would reach an entirely different level.
But for now, he needed to continue with the shared consciousness. He switched back into his first body, feeling the aftermath of exhaustion hit him. Every muscle ached, his mind fogged from exertion. But despite it all, a grin stretched across his face.
'This... is going to be fun.'

I have NO plans for two personalities.
Why is lil Daniel becoming stronger? Wasn't UI something that brings 100% of the body?
Yes, but during the fight Big Daniel used more force, causing Lil Daniel to try and match up the strength, and with the fight going on, his experience increased, thus his strength and how much he can apply.
