The man scratched his chin with interest, knowing that Nicole might have figured out something.
“It’s not impossible for me to be gentle with him, but you’ve got to fight with me.
‘What?’ Zeke exclaimed in his mind in disbelief.
Even Jared frowned.
“This is unnecessary,” he said faintly.
The man seemed to have heard a hint of threats in Jared’s voice and scratched his neck in fear, but out of his belligerence, he did not intend to let Nicole go.
He did not dare to look at Jared, but when facing Nicole, his voice was forceful, sounding confident.
“How about that?”
Nicole saw his belligerence but knew he had no ill intention.
Since the man asked for it, she happily obliged.
“Yeah, why not?”
The man’s eyes lit up, while Jared had a strange splendor in his eyes.
Nicole saw the man’s stance and knew at once that he was a hand striker.
The man motioned to her and said, “Come on, little girl.
I’ll allow you a three-round handicap.”
“That won’t be necessary,” Nicole just said faintly and then took a few steps forward and looked at the man, “Make your move.”
‘That’s arrogant!’ The earlier two men looked at Nicole with resentment in their eyes, exasperated by her insensible, patronizing attitude in snubbing the commander.
They looked at Nicole with displeasure.
A stern look flashed in Karlo’s eyes.
As someone who practiced martial arts, he was not going to hold back since his opponent did not bother to accept the handicap.
He looked at Nicole with a hint of regret in his eyes, as he was expecting the girl’s refusal to accept his offer of handicap would only cause her to lose in embarrassment.
It was impossible for him to hurt her, anyway, since Jared was standing there watching.
Thinking of Jared, Karlo shuddered involuntarily.
But soon, he quickly shifted his attention back to Nicole. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
He let out a friendly smile before making a quick, fearsome move, his fist striking as powerful as thunder and lightning.
Karlo shouted a warning, “Watch this!”
He struck straight at Nicole’s face, Nicole subtly turned her body sideways.
Karlo missed, but his other hand was already striking at Nicole’s left ribcage in full force.
Nicole was nonchalant as if she had expected his next move.
She turned sideways again and defused the opponent’s menacing attack.
She was so cool, calm, and collected, not breaking a sweat.
Karlo looked slightly stunned, and he quickly changed from using punches to kicks, striking his right leg horizontally so forcefully that it created a loud swoosh in the air as if it moved
with a force of a thousand pounds.
Yet Nicole leaned back casually so that her body was in a perfect ninety-degree bent, dodging Karlo’s powerful strike.
Karlo immediately turned around and hooked his left leg to kick at Nicole’s waist.
He was not pulling any punches now.
This was obviously a desperate move.
If it hit Nicole, it was going to hurt her badly.
Both the earlier two men thought Nicole could not dodge Karlo’s move this time.
After all, she had just completed a lean-back move, and it was impossible for her to bounce back and fight another attack in such a short time.
