89 My Fight

With a growl, Mezu ran towards the black helmet man. His feet stomped as if shaking the ground he stepped on.

Another blow came from above. Emma immediately crossed her arms in front of her face so that the block of wood hit her bones instead. A thump of the ground made Emma move her sight sideways, “Shit!” she screamed, realizing that Mezu was running fast towards her.

Emma didn’t expect it to end up like this. Unable to fight the enemy. Had to give up her dream after this defeat. She failed to save the girls and bullied in Handway City. And what’s even worse.. perhaps after this, she won’t be able to dance ballet anymore.

“Attack!!!”

Suddenly, all of the activity stopped when two Hell Gate members ran in from the front door screaming with limp legs.

Mezu who was running, then stopped his footsteps. He looked with furrowed brows at the two men whose faces were battered.

“A-an.. Attack! Jita.. Kyoei!!” Said one of them with lips full covered with blood.

“Huh?!” Emma who had fallen on her back mumbled. Then, she realized that the off guard of all the members was an opportunity for her to escape.

With that, Emma quickly kicked the three men who were holding her with two kicks. Then, she managed to get to her feet while the men finally came back to attack her again.

.....

A few seconds later, a loud noise came from outside the door. Then, several members who were surrounding Emma ??finally shifted their focus to the front door. Some had already left the fighting arena to head there. But Emma still couldn’t escape, because now she was really facing Mezu’s attack.

BUGH!! KRAK!! BUGH!!

There was a man dressed in a black motorcycle jacket with a yellow list entered the fighting arena. Emma knew that face very well. He was Ian from the Jita Kyoei group.

Behind him, a group of big men followed. They were like an iron ship breaking through the thick layer of ice that blocked their path.

Troy, Frank, Martin, Nicko, and.. Calvin Lee. They entered with heavy blows which instantly toppled the men with wooden blocks.

The two sharp black iris eyes stared at the figure of a man with the body covered in all black clothes and a motorcycle helmet on his head, fighting a figure that was almost three times his body size. Calvin knew, it was Mezu, one of the twin pillars of the main guardian of Hell Gate.

“He’s so tiny,” Said Troy who was standing beside Calvin. They stood amid the friends who were battling dozens of Hell Gate members as if it was nothing.

Calvin nodded, “With such a small body, he could defeat the twins Gozu and Mezu who are Hell Gate’s strongholds. Look at that.. his moves are so agile.”

“We finally met him,” Said Ian who had just beaten ten people and piled them in the middle of the arena. He didn’t look tired at all.

Troy nodded once, “Looks like he’s fought it out. Even though he’s agile, I can tell he’s exhausted. I don’t know what would have happened to him if we didn’t come here.”

“Hyaa!!!”

Calvin shifted his body slightly, then smacked his elbow into the face of the man running towards him with a swing of a wooden block. The man immediately collapsed due to Calvin’s casual punch.

Calvin and Jita Kyoei knew, Hell Gate was indeed very good at developing and hiding their dirty business. They also had a lot of members. However, unfortunately, their members were very weak in fighting. Because of that, Kei decided to recruit the members of the martial arts studio to become part of their members.

With the help of Calvin and Jita Kyoei’s group, Emma could focus on fighting Mezu without any interference from the rest of the Hell Gate group’s members. But right now, Emma had a weakness that she didn’t feel when she fought the monster at the main headquarter that day.

Now, Emma’s body had been quite a lot injured, causing her movement and strength to not be as strong as they should be. She also couldn’t take advantage of a wide fighting arena like this place.

Emma’s leg, which had previously been hit by a wooden block, was hurt when she ran too much. Sweat dripped behind her helmet. Emma panted when she realized, maybe she couldn’t fight Mezu who at that time she could easily take down.

As Mezu attacked back at her, Emma immediately jumped to the side. But unfortunately, her leg was caught by the hand of a man who was lying unconscious on the floor. Emma instantly fell and struggled to get up.

At the same time, Mezu saw the golden opportunity. Then, he immediately turned around and attack the black helmet man again as shouting in anger. He knew that his headquarter was now under the Jita Kyoei group control, which reportedly was also targeting Hell Gate to be destroyed. Perhaps the group that had raised him was already on the brink. However, as a pillar of defence, Mezu would continue fighting until the last of his blood droop. He would defend his kingdom. He was a great and loyal commander.

“I WILL KILL YOU!!!” Mezu shouted with passionate steps.

Suddenly, a powerful kick flew over to his right ear. Instantly, Mezu staggered to the side. Mezu held his right ear and jaw which were in great pain. The kick was very strong. He turned to a man standing a few steps away from him.

“A lonely hero..” Mezu muttered.

That’s Calvin Lee. A hero who wandered alone in the darkness of Handway City to help victims of burglary, as well as looking for trouble with several gangster groups. But all this time, he had never touched the Hell Gate group. Now, he helped the man in the black helmet as if they were on the same goal.

Emma was surprised to see Calvin suddenly appear to help her. Just like that time, when Emma was helping Roger who was bullied by Carter in the campus hallway. Calvin also appeared to help her with the same flying kick. Emma looked around. Almost all Hell Gate members in the base had been knocked out by Troy and his friends.

Emma was feeling lucky. Yes, if Calvin hadn’t saved her, she might have been finished in Mezu’s hands. But that didn’t mean that Emma was happy. She immediately stood up with a grimace on her face. Then, stepped closer to the tall man who was still looking at her with a curious face.

Emma raised her hand, and lightly patted Calvin’s chest, “Thank you. But this is my fight.” she said.

Calvin furrowed his brows when he heard a robot-like voice coming out of the black helmet. Even the man used a voice changer to mask his true identity. Even so, Calvin could judge that he was a gentleman who had a real fighting spirit inside that small body.

“Certain,” Calvin replied with a faint smile, then stepped back.

Meanwhile, several additional members of the Hell Gate group appeared. As usual, they loved to call for reinforcements.

“We’ll talk later,” Calvin said before leaving the black helmet man to fight Mezu, just as he would not receive the ‘No’ answer.

Emma ignored him. She turned her focus to the figure of Mezu who was already standing back a few steps in front of her. While enduring the pain, Emma caught her breath. Now, she could focus on one person. This time, she would not allow Mezu to rise again. Emma would tear down all the support pillars of Hell Gate.

“Jump highest and landed like a feather,” Emma muttered under her breath.

As soon as Mezu ran towards her, Emma’s leg which was still able to move normally, jumped up like a spring. Emma’s jump was so high that it almost overtook the two-meter-tall man’s head. That acrobatic scene even made Mezu gape in surprise.

Quickly, Emma stomped on Mezu’s back with her sore foot, then with her normal foot kicked Mezu’s ear hard before jumping down behind the man’s back.

‘The back of a wrestler that always bends down will be the perfect foothold for the ballet’s feet.’ Emma said in her heart.

The dwarf’s kick was not as strong as Calvin Lee’s, but he knew the fatal point that really made his opponent fall in just one attack. Mezu was unable to match the black-helmeted man’s fast-paced way of thinking.

Emma looked at Mezu who was holding his right ear which had already received two kicks. He seemed to have lost his balance. And as soon as the man lowered his hand, Emma could see blood pouring out of Mezu’s ear.

‘Hopefully, it’s damage to his eardrum,’ Emma thought. She had deliberately attacked the point that Calvin had previously attacked. That way, it would be faster to destroy him. Like a big ship that had many engines. With the damage to several main engines, it would make it unable to sail optimally.

Now, Emma would not use the usual game plane that she had always relied on in facing a much bigger opponent than her. Usually, Emma always ran away, but now she would use a new strategy that Mezu had never seen before.

“Did I ever tell you that I’ve been taking gymnastics classes for eight years?” Emma muttered with a smile, which of course, only she could hear. She hung her palms in front of her waist and then wiggled her four fingers as a symbol for the opponent to move first.

The behaviour of the black helmet man always managed to make Mezu’s anger explode. As his opponent wanted, he charged like a furious bull being teased with a red flag.
