Doubt that would work as Teru kicked his ass but people still treat him as scary. Him losing a fight would mean he would be seen as a gatekeeper from the weak to the strong and still have to fight. Hell even if he lost every fight he would still be hounded by everyone. In this case he'd be treated as an easy mark to bully.See I would feel bad for him if he wasn't a literal demon that corrupts everyone around him. All he had to do was eat an ass kicking or two early on and he'd be fine. Everyone knows when you win you either have to keep winning or lose, he chose to keep beating people up and by extension keeping his legend alive. He's an emotionally immature psycho who ruins everything he touches
