I uppercut him in the chin as he stumbled to get up, getting sent flying back before I mounted his torso and unleashed a flurry of punches which only drew out his desperate guard.
Clearly, my punches did something as he swiftly brought both of his arms to shield his fragile facial features, but that only let me slither my hands to the side and grab both sides of his neck.
He brought down his guard and reached out, attempting to grab my neck, but I quickly dodged to the side, just barely avoiding his strangely muscular fingers.
His feet struggled and slid against the paved concrete until I had choked him all the way until any last bits of oxygen had escaped from his lungs.
"AND THE WINNER IS! ARPIOUS!"
The devil walked over to check on the dragon who had passed out, and as she kneeled right beside me, she suddenly grabbed my cheeks.
"W-What?" I muttered in a chalky tone since it was hard to make words with her completely controlling my lips like this.
"*sigh*... Well, we can definitely bring your eye back… but just try not to rely on your skills next time," She smiled, and then a sudden realization almost made me release a sigh so long that it would've made me suffocate.
"I'm a hypocrite…." I lightly chuckled to myself as she let go of my face and then lightly slapped the dragon's right cheek.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSoon, he awoke, gasping for air and clawing at his neck, only to realize the fight had ended, and he looked at me with utter shock.
"I… lost? How the hell did I lose?" He stuttered, unable to believe the events that had just occurred.
"If you can't take the truth, then just leave," I smirked, but clearly, he didn't fall for my taunt and instead turned to look at the devil who kneeled right beside me.
"As I said, your status is depleted, especially your stats. I assume you have your previous skills, but everything else will be much, much lower than before,"

…
"Huh?" I muttered to myself as I stared up at the status, which was supposed to be the dragon's, but instead mine.
"Please don't inspect me without my permission… not like you can see it anyway," He smirked before slowly standing up and wiping off the thin layer of dust crowning his lap.
"Why is it my status?"
"Well, honey…" The devil suddenly grabbed my cheeks again, and I turned my head towards her. "*sigh*... I'll just heal you now," She muttered, releasing a black glow that caused my eye to practically instantly regenerate.
The snapping of flesh and veins was a bit disturbing, but it healed back perfectly, as if I was never injured in the first place.
"Hey! If you want that to stop hurting, then come over here as well!"
The dragon glanced back before giving her the middle finger, his hand still carrying his abdomen as he walked back toward the palace.
