Chapter 56: Getting the reality check?

As they watched the scene unfold, Ava and Isla couldn't help but feel a sense of justice being served. The red-haired lady's actions only solidified their trust in her, and they were eager to see how she would handle the situation.

The tension in the atmosphere was palpable as they waited for the red-haired lady to make her move. Ava and Isla exchanged a knowing glance, silently acknowledging that this was a moment they would never forget.

Half an hour has passed. The rude man was lying on the ground with a bloody face and multiple wounds across his body. It would take at least a month for him to recover from this. Ava and Isla were shocked, knowing the beautiful red-haired lady was the one who was really responsible for this.

They expected that she would punish him like normal, but they didn't anticipate that she would directly challenge him to fight her, and the only rule of the fight is that it's hand-to-hand combat until one of them surrenders.

Two sisters also felt scared seeing her fight. They even felt a little pity for him, as he didn't even get the chance to surrender as she hit his face repeatedly until the word didn't sound like surrender, but remembering his creepy face when he was hurting her sister, Ava's pity for him vanished completely without a trace.

Half an hour ago, the rude soldier was listening to the May proposal, saying she wanted to give him a chance instead of directly punishing him; she would fight him on a spar, and she also mentioned that he wouldn't have to worry about if she got injured during the spar as she is the one who asked him to spar instead of punishment; she wouldn't take any action toward him.

All the soldiers hearing this were shocked, thinking the leader doesn't have to do this as the rude soldier is not weak considering he is a man since she is a woman who is naturally weaker than him; nevertheless, they didn't say anything as they had no right to say anything in front of her, as she was the one in charge here.

Most of the male and female soldiers were worried about thinking she had made the decision on impulse, but only a few who had seen her fight knew the rude soldier was going to get the beating of his life today.

She may be equal to him in strength or even slightly weaker, but as for everything else, yet in skills, he wouldn't be even close to her, so the outcome is already clear in some soldiers' minds.

The rude soldier, hearing her proposal, was pleased, thinking he would get to play around with the cold and empathetic leader who thinks she is superior to him; he just wanted to humiliate her in front of everyone, and it was enough for him to recover from his previous humiliation until now.

He even thought of accidentally ripping her clothes during the spar to let her remember it for the rest of her life and never to mess with him; he had never shown any lust toward her in front since he had also heard her story and he didn't want to trigger her knowing she was her superior.

But now this is the perfect chance for him to humiliate her. He may not show any lust in front of her, but that doesn't mean he doesn't fantasize about her. She is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen; she is gorgeous enough to work as an idol or TV actress.

Thinking about her beauty with red hair, red eyes, and her tall, attractive body with ripped clothes lying on the ground crying or sobbing due to humiliation, he felt ecstatic as a creepy smile appeared on his face only for a second or two.

He had heard from many soldiers about the rumor about how good she was at fighting and how much of a genius she was in fighting, so he would lose to her if he fought her, but he wouldn't believe that a woman like her could beat him. He has seen her train; she can lift weights almost equal to him, but he doesn't think she could beat him.

'I just hit her a few times with full strength and played around with her to enjoy the time of my life and humiliate her in front of everyone.'

But he is not going to go easy on her, knowing her rank is higher than him; she had to be at least something to be promoted so many times in a year, so he is serious and excited at the same time.

May, who had seen having different emotions on his face, also noticed the creepy smile on his face. She knows he is probably thinking something immoral about her because she had this intuition after almost getting raped in her childhood; she can tell who is having immoral thoughts just by his eyes and the look on his face.

Now she was even more pissed; she was going to beat him pulp anyway, but now she would be even crueler than before during the fight, and this was the punishment she had chosen for him, so she had to take it seriously because she knew a moment of carelessness during the fight could turn victory into defeat.

However, she doesn't think she would lose to a low-ranking soldier like him, but she would still go full force on him without going easy. The only thing that's stopping her from reaching a higher rank is time, and sooner or later, she will climb those ranks.

Then even a word from her could ruin his psychopath's life, but for now, she had to focus on the upcoming fight.

Mark, who had witnessed the interaction between the psychopath and the leader, wanted to beg the leader if he could fight in her place. He doubted whether she, as a woman, could defeat him without sustaining significant injuries.

He knows a leader is not a rash person, so she must be confident in her victory to challenge him like that to beat him for his wrongdoing with the most primal force violence befitting for his punishment, the most efficient punishment, but he still doubts that she would get hurt for the victory; he doesn't want to get hurt by his psychopath.

He would gladly teach him a lesson even if he had to get injured in return, as he didn't think he would come out unscathed, and he was currently looking at her with fire in his eyes, releasing hot air from his nose like an enraged bull wanted to say something even if he got punished for speaking without her command, and he also fantasized about defeating him in front of her to make him look more manly and cool in front of her.

While looking at her, just as he was about to say something, the leader looked at him and said it in a chilling voice.

"I haven't forgotten about you, and if you say something foolish, soldier, you will be the next one after him who would get to spar with me, and the outcome would not be pretty."

Mark was surprised at how the leader had guessed what he was thinking in his mind, but the others standing behind the leader, looking at him with obvious expressions that resembled bulls ready to fight, also assumed the same things in their minds.

'This idiot probably thinks the leader has read his mind, but who can tell this fool his face says it all?'

Well, they are not going to tell him, as in this group of soldiers, he is the funniest one, so they would enjoy his reactions.

Without wasting any more time, May ordered one of the female soldiers present to act as a judge to see if one would use any weapons during the fight; they removed any weapons from their bodies and checked by the female officer to see if everything was fair.

If they don't, they don't know when someone would act on impulse and do something that was not supposed to happen; they would stop it, but it was better to avoid it from happening while the soldier made a natural circle around the both of them like usual duels.

As the duel starts after the checking, both of them are in a position of guard; no one is making the first move while their hand is raised at the level of the head, similar to a boxing stance but different; they both have their own fighting style honed by combat.

May Seeing him not making a move, she decided to make a move as she couldn't wait to wipe that smug look from his face from the moment the duel had started. He probably thinks he will win and humiliate her; she wouldn't break his delusion, as first, she decided to test at what level his fighting skills are.

She sprinted closer suddenly as the difference between them was only a couple of meters, and he was not expecting her to attack aggressively. He had thought if she didn't make a move in half a minute, he would throw some strong punches at her.

But still, he could see her high-speed punch coming for his right ribs, so he was ready to block, but the punch didn't come as he thought, and his fist became flat at the last second, catching him off guard and getting pushed in return.

He doesn't lose his balance completely, but suddenly a high-speed kick comes straight to his unguarded stomach, almost instantly knocking the wind out of his stomach.

But he is still alright. It hurts like hell. He didn't think her kick would be this solid as he tried to stabilize himself, getting back a few steps, but she didn't let him breathe for a second, and as a barrage of kicks and punches came toward him, mixed with many feints playing him like a fiddle, not giving him a chance to breathe.

A minute had passed and his face and other body parts, concealed by his uniforms, showed multiple bruises. He is pissed right now. He didn't think she would be this good, as whenever he tried to punch.

She would dodge him like predicting his movement, and her speed astonished him very much. Her punches and kicks come like whips from multiple unexpected angles, hitting his body.

Bam Bam Bam Bam

While he was regretting fighting her, thinking she is using all her skill as he didn't think she would be this good, and he didn't think he could last more than 3 minutes given his current condition as his face is already hurting like hell with multiple bruises, he even cursed the bitch in his mind.

'This slut is purposely hitting my face.'

Meanwhile, May has completely different thoughts in her mind. 'I am purposely trying to test his skill and not even using more than 50 percent of my skill, but I am using 80 percent of my strength.'

Because she knew in strength, she would be almost equal to him, knowing if she used less than this, she wouldn't be able to hear those melodious, painful cries from his mouth from every hit. Sёarch* The NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Ugh Ugh Ugh Ugh

Now that May has tested him enough, she is ready to get serious and make him never forget this day and regret ever trying to enjoy hurting weak and helpless children using his power. Just the thought of these angers her even more.

She had judged his fighting skill to be just above the intermediate level, nowhere near her with almost entering professional level in multiple fitting styles, and her best is jujutsu, which she didn't even want to use on him as someone disgusting like him.

But she knows she has to use it when the situation calls for it because she would be at a disadvantage against some strong men who train almost as hard as her, making the skill difference with brute force, but she knows the soldier in front of her is not one of those men.

And she doesn't even need to use her strongest card to make him cry like a little girl, making him regret enjoying torturing children as the surrounding aura becomes serious, completely different from her previous aura, which was intimating.

But now all the soldiers could feel the air around the leader had changed; it was more serious than before when she thrashed him and dodged almost all his attacks and some misdirecting and blocking them.

They are shocked knowing she was not fully serious up until now because not a single one of them thinks they can beat her seeing a duel until now because the best fighter among them hadn't entered the advanced level as not many years have passed since joining the military or started training themselves.
