Chapter 185 Chapter 185- Basketball Match (Part 2)

"Where do you think you're going?" The upperclassman asked with a glare.

Eva looked at him again with a cold expression, her presence loomed over the place, making the seniors flinch as sweat started trickling down their faces.

"Leave," Eva said coldly.

However, surprisingly enough, the upperclassman didn't move. His body was shaking, but he didn't move a single muscle.

"Not before I reveal that you were the one who turned him into a vegetable! Taro was my friend, my brother! If I leave now, I will never be able to forgive myself." The upperclassman yelled loudly. Determination is clear in his eyes.

'What is wrong with this guy?' Eva fought the urge to facepalm. Ignoring the fact that this guy was accusing her of doing that -which she did- without any evidence, his friend was the one who initiated contact with her. She simply showed him the consequences of his actions.

"What makes you think I'm the one who... what was it again? Paralyzed him? How can I even be able to paralyze someone?" Eva asked with a weird expression.

"You were the last one he talked to before the accident and from what I heard, you called him to the storage room. That's where he was found paralyzed. I don't know how you did it. But, I'm sure it's you."

'His logic is so wrong and yet he somehow reached the correct deduction?' Eva would be lying if she said she wasn't impressed by his ingenious stupidity.

"I see. So, what are you going to do? Hit me back?" She asked. Her voice filled with sarcasm. n-(0velb1n

"No, no such thing. I don't hit women. Instead, let's make a bet."

"A bet?"

"We will play a 1v1 basketball match. The first to score 9 points wins. If I win, you will make a public announcement that you hurt Taro and drop out of school. If I win, I will leave you alone."

"And what if I simply refuse?" Eva asked as she was about to turn around and leave the place. However, as she was about to walk away, a thought crossed her head as a small smile appeared on her face.

"You know what? Sure. I agree with your challenge."

Kai raised an eyebrow as he looked at Eva blankly, trying to understand what she was trying to do. Seeing her smile, he didn't take long to understand what she wanted to do.

'They're a bunch of nobodies.' He looked at the group of seniors silently before he sighed and stepped forward.

"Make it a 2v2." He said coldly.

"Hm?" Eva was quite surprised Kai participated. However, when she saw the glint that flashed in his eyes, her smile relaxed.

'You're really my soulmate, Kai~ I love you...' She thought to herself.

"And who are you? I'm only here for her. Mind your business."

"You're a basketball player and a senior at that. Playing against her would be unfair. 2v2 sounds more logical, don't you think? That way, people won't criticize you for winning against her." Kai said with a flat tone as he pointed at Eva.

The senior fell into deep thought before he nodded his head.

"Fine. 2v2 it is."

"When are we going to have the match?" Eva asked.

"Now, of course."

The group then moved to the gymnasium where there was an indoor basketball court. Eva and Kaya chose a corner and stretched there.

"You sure want to crush them?" Kai asked.

"Mmm, that's half the reason. The other reason is... I think that guy is lying about his excuse. There is something he's hiding and I want to know it."

"So you noticed that too..." Kai murmured before he cracked his neck. "Well, be ready to read his mind after the match."

Then, Kai and Eva stepped into the court and facing them, the senior and another fierce-looking guy were present.

"Do you know the rules of a 2v2?"

"Of course, why would we accept if we didn't?"

"Good, that saves us the time of explaining. Here, you can start." Throwing the ball to Eva, the two seniors took their positions. Even though they knew they were playing against complete amateurs, they still decided to take things seriously.

They weren't dumb enough to believe that they could win 100%. As long as there is a chance of losing, they weren't going to take it.

Eva nodded her head as she started bouncing the ball on the ground before she stepped forward. Kai also moved to the other side, only to be met by the other senior.

Eva and the upperclassman faced each other. Eva smiled at the man as she moved to the side, trying to pass him, only to be met by the senior.

"You will get crushed and leave this school, criminal." He said.

"Sure sure~" She said with a smile as she suddenly moved like a flash, passing the senior as if it was nothing.

At the same time, Kai dodged the other senior, giving himself an opening. Eva quickly passed him the ball before she ran forward and jumped in the air. Kai passed her the ball mid-air, allowing her to dunk.

*BANG*

With great technique, Eva slam dunked without any hesitation under the two upperclassmen's shocked looks.

"What in the hell..."

"Hehehe~ Thanks for the assist." She said to Kai as she high-fived him.

'These two...'

"Your turn, senior," Eva said with a smile as she gave him the ball the same way he did.

"Damn you... Oi, Lenard, take it seriously. These two aren't as amateur as we thought."

The two then started attacking. Running toward Kai and Eva, they diverged in their paths as they tried to overwhelm the two.

However...

'What?!' The upperclassman found Kai in front of him like a ghost. His speed and presence scared the senior. But, he still tried to move past him only to be stopped again.

As for Eva and the other seniors, they stood still for a while. Even though Eva was smaller than him in size, the senior felt like he was facing a great, immovable wall. The fact that Eva instilled that feeling in him made him even angrier.

'I can dribble through her! I'm the goddamn new captain of the basketball team!'

So, with flaming determination, he quickly dashed forward at top speed before he spun around, trying to dodge Eva. However, at the last moment, when he thought he passed her, his eyes widened in shock.

'The ball! Where is the ball?!' Looking down, the ball wasn't in his hand.

Looking back, he saw Eva smiling at him wickedly with the ball in her hands before she jumped in the air and shot the ball with amazing precision. The ball flew in the air, creating a perfect arc before falling perfectly inside the basket.

"Oooh, 3 points!" Eva fakely celebrated as if she didn't expect it to enter even though that was an easy feat for her.

Seeing that, the seniors could only remain speechless.

***

The match didn't last long after that. Kai scored the remaining 4 points with two perfect layups. The result was 9-0 or in other words... A crushing defeat!

The two seniors sat down on the ground with empty looks. They couldn't believe what just happened. They weren't simply defeated. They were one-sidedly abused as if they didn't know how to play basketball.

'Who are these two?'

"Now, now, don't be too harsh on yourself, senior. I used to play basketball a lot during my middle school days. Your defeat wasn't that bad." Eva said as she approached them.

"Shut up! There is something wrong with this!" The latter protested, only to be met with a cold glare from Eva.

"The only thing wrong is with you. Basketball player? What a pathetic excuse." She said before she channeled her Origin to her fingers and sent it toward the two, prying into their memories.

Reading through them, her eyes widened slightly.
