BXBX NOVEL Chapter 31: Taking Action
Thinking about the time that he had be having much trouble to be able to land ev a single attack on Jad, she definitely could not allow something like that to happ again. She had her own pride, and she was not going to allow it to be trampled upon.
She took a step forward and approached Alfie. Alfie on the other hand did not retreat, but instead, looked pleased by the fact that Scarlet seemed to be taking him seriously. But ev th, there was not ev an ounce of emotion on his face after a slight reaction.
The momt that the gap betwe the two of them was reduced to less than m, Scarlet took the initiative to attack. She launched a punch with her full strgth this time, but ev th, she made sure not to target the vital areas.
Looking at the punch coming towards him, Alfie took a single step backwards with his left leg, before bding his right leg a little. With that, he had already tak his fighting stance.
Wh the punch was about to land on his face, he simply twisted his head to the right, dodging the punch quite easily. His movemts were extremely fluid, and there was no any excessive movemt at all.
Scarlet was surprised wh she realized that Alfie was capable of reacting ev wh she attacked with her full strgth. But ev th, she did not intd to give him a chance to strike back at all. The same hand that had be used to attack suddly bt, and an elbow descded towards Alfie\'s shoulder.
Alfie was also surprised by that sudd movemt, but ev th, he reacted swiftly, shifting his body towards the left, managing to narrowly dodge the attack.
But he had just managed to dodge that attack wh suddly, a kick came towards his face. It seemed that this lady was intding to hit his face. This was something that Alfie was not happy about.
Facing the kick from Scarlet, Alfie raised his left hand, managing to parry the attack. This time, here utilized his strgth in order to be able to parry the attack from Scarlet. And due to the force that was applied wh parrying the attack, Scarlet was forced to the left.
She almost fell to the g had it not be for the fact that she stabilized herself quickly. But she had just managed to stabilize herself wh suddly, Alfie attacked. He launched a punch towards her stomach.
Scarlet had already expected that she was going to be attacked since this was a fight. But ev th, the speed that Alfie possessed wh he attacked completely exceeded her estimation. But ev th, she managed to react, barely dodging the attack.
She did not try to block the attack at all. She understood that the strgth that Alfie possessed was definitely not something that she could deal with easily. And for that reason, it was better for her to avoid the attacks if possible. In case there was no any other option, th she would have no choice but to block the attacks. But now that there was another option of dodging, she took it.
The momt that she managed to dodge the attack, she took a few steps backwards, retreating. But Alfie did not give her a chance of retreating at all, and immediately followed her with another punch. This time, the punch was heading towards her face.
It might be true that Scarlet did not really care much about makeup and so on, but ev th, she was a girl. So of course, she really cared about her face. And now that there was somebody that was trying to attack her face, how could she not get angry about it?
Although she was angry, she knew that she had to react. And so, swiftly, she managed to twist her body slightly, dodging the attack. At the same time, she kicked towards Alfie, forcing Alfie to retreat in order to evade the attack.
Outside the ring, everybody that was watching the battle betwe the two of them was amazed. Harry had never expected that there was actually going to be a possibility that Scarlet was going to be able to fight with Alfie for this long.
Previously, it only took a few attacks from Alfie to be able to defeat Lucas and the others. Although he understood that Scarlet was strong, he still possessed the prejudice against Scarlet considering that she was a lady. So, he believed that Alfie was going to be able to take care of her in just a while.
But the two of them had be fighting for more than 5 minutes now, and of them had managed to land an attack on the other. Although it was clear that Alfie possessed an advantage in the exchange betwe the two of them, but ev th, the advantage was not clear ough.
This was something that made him frown. If they did not crush Scarlet, and only managed to win by a small margin, how was he supposed to be bragging in front of her?
Lucas and the others that belonged to Scarlet\'s group could not help but get a little worried. Of course they could tell that currtly, Scarlet was at a disadvantage. It was only due to her nimble movemts that she was able to survive this long. Otherwise, had she not be fast ough, she would have definitely be defeated by now.
Just looking at the strgth that was possessed by Alfie, they understood that it was impossible for her to be able to compete against him in terms of physical strgth. The only thing that Scarlet could depd on at the momt in order to be able to defeat Alfie was strategy.
Among the tire group, the one that was extremely nervous was other than Lucas. Had it not be for the fact that he was not capable of dealing with Alfie, he would have already gone ahead to deal with the guy for trying to attack Scarlet.
After all, each and every attack that Alfie was throwing at Scarlet was extremely dangerous, and if any of them managed to land on Scarlet, she was going to be injured. With the way that he was obsessed with Scarlet, how could he allow another person to injure her?
But he understood that there was nothing that he could do at the momt. It might be true that he was stronger than Harry, but ev th, the differce betwe the two of them was not that big. And so, it was going to be quite easy for Harry to be able to prevt him from getting involved in the fight in the ring.
Ev though it was true that the others in the group possessed good combat strgth, they definitely could not be able to deal with Harry\'s group in a short time to go and assist Scarlet. Ev if they managed to assist Scarlet so that she could defeat Alfie, they would definitely not celebrate about it.
After all, they would have still lost in a one-on-one fight. At the same time, Lucas understood Scarlet quite well. If they decided to get involved in the fight, they would definitely d up irritating her.
Jad on the other hand had be observing the battle from a close distance. The momt that the fight betwe Alfie and Scarlet began, he approached the ring, and stood outside. He was going to take action in case there was a need for him to do that.
But before that, he would just continue observing the battle betwe the two of them. And to say the truth, he could not help but be amazed about the abilities of the two of them.
According to his estimation, the two of them were definitely not that much older than him. But ev th, the skills that they possessed were definitely above the ones that he possessed before he received the system and the rewards.
But now that he possessed the system, this was going to be his advantage. It might be true that he could not compete with Scarlet and Alfie wh it came to how they had managed to get this skilled, but ev th, they could not compete with his luck wh it came to obtaining the system, right?
As the battle betwe the two of them waged on, the two of them began sweating due to the high intsity movemts. But from Jad\'s observation, he could already tell that Scarlet was already reaching her limit.
She possessed quite high stamina, but ev th, due to the fact that she was making rapid movemts in order to be able to evade the attacks from Alfie, she was consuming the stamina at an incredible speed. So of course, she was going to be the one that got tired first.
Alfie on the other hand, although he was currtly sweating, his breathing was stable. This was a complete contrast to Scarlet who was already breathing heavily.
Suddly, while everybody was watching the battle going on inside the ring, Jad jumped into the ring. This immediately made everybody tse up, while Harry was immediately infuriated, and got ready to take action. The two fighting in the ring were also surprised by Jad\'s actions.
