The way things were going, it was clear that he wouldn’t be able to easily walk out of this anyway.
Before Gerald could say anything else, Meilani secretly winked at him before whispering, “Please teach him a lesson for me, Gerald! This guy just loves pestering me!”
“Allow me to remind you that I’m not your hired thug!”
“I’m sorry if I made it sound that way, but please, please help me out…! Don’t worry, if anything happens, I’ll be sure to take responsibility for it!” pleaded Meilani as she made puppy dog eyes.
Hearing that, Gerald could only sigh as he agreed to her request.
“Hey kid, you must’ve cheated to defeat Juno, right? You couldn’t possibly have taken her down any way else! With that in mind, I hope you’re ready to receive a good pummelling!” scoffed Quaan as he pointed confidently at Gerald.
Before Gerald could even reply, Quaan began dashing toward him!
However, Quaan was so pitifully slow that Gerald couldn’t help but feel sorry for him. Compared to Meilani—who didn’t even have any martial arts training—, Quaan was probably half as slow as she was!
Now seeing the underwhelming extent of Quaan’s strength, Gerald felt that it was disdainful to even make a move on the cocky youth. Even so, since things had come to this, he still needed to defeat Quaan in the end.
While he did feel slightly sorry for the weakling, Gerald wasn’t against the idea of having a bit of fun with Quaan first before defeating him.
Regardless, Gerald easily dodged Quaan’s punch just by moving slightly to the side.
“Now, now, you haven’t even defeated me yet! Till you do, don’t you think it’s a bit shameless to be so overconfident?” retorted Gerald, not even finding the need to be angry toward such a weak person.
“Hah! Fine, then! Here comes your finishing blow!” declared Quaan before leaping and aiming a kick right for Gerald!
In response, however, the calm Gerald simply kicked the incoming youth right in the side!
Unable to even block the attack in time, Quaan found himself flying several dozen feet away!
Hitting the ground extremely forcefully, Quaan couldn’t even find the energy to crawl back up. That just showed how truly powerful Gerald’s simple kick had been…
