Chapter 90: Tilting Scale Balance (3)

The first o?’ she thought as she shot forward, baffled by Chi-Woo’s provocation

She knew that he was a hero who specialized in fighting spirits, but the recruits from the celestial realm had lost their powers Moreover, Chi-Woo was hopeless in close coht with hi a co hih she had battled hio all out even once She engaged hi it was bothersome that Chi-Woo ing her on, it seemed only natural for her to respond to his provocation in kind

Wanting to quickly put Chi-Woo into his rightful place, Hawa quickly shortened the distance between them Her eyes widened in shock when Chi-Woo rushed toward her as well rather than backing away as he had done before They were running toward each other

‘He really wants to have at it?’ Putting it to test, Hawa threw a light jab at the left side of Chi-Woo’s face Chi-Woo pushed her hand aith relative ease but ended up exposing the side of his ribs Hawa ai, and Chi-Woo twisted his body to evade the attack

Hawa scowled and decided to back away for now Usually, the kick would’ve landed; Chi-Woo would’ve been flung away by a great distance after shouting ‘Whoa!’ in surprise, and the fight would’ve ended Even when he hadn’t been hit, Haould’ve still maintained her upper hand and pounded hiht

But that was all in the past, and Chi-Woo maintained a calmness that indicated he had read her movements and calculated the possible repercussions of his own actions In other words, he was now able to approach the battle logically and decipher his and his opponent’s ressed’ Well, that was only expected of a hero Even if Chi-Woo wasn’t an expert in close coe; case in point, he spun slightly every time he attacked It was like he needed ti in one spot

‘How bothersome’ Even if Chi-Woo was an easy opponent, he was still a hero His instincts alone set hiular folks, and there were a couple of tiht her attack would land on him for sure, only for Chi-Woo to evade it Haas sure that it had been his instincts that helped him in those situations, because when she purposefully confused his senses byfeint attack after feint attack, Chi-Woo had failed to dodge out of the way

Confusing Chi-Woo’s senses was her best strategy, which had allowed her to boast a victory rate of 100 when Chi-Woo only blocked and evaded when fighting Yet today, after hiding like a turtle inside his shells until now, Chi-Woo was co to the forefront to face her

‘Should I check whether his newfound confidence is valid or not?’ Haare that Chi-Woo had received La Bella’s blessing, and that his physical attributes had noticeably improved However, he hadn’t been able to surpass a huarded his physical attributes, Chi-Woo was still lagging far behind Ru Amuh, and Haas sure that she could match up to him if she really tried

Were their physical attributes on a similar level, ould determine the winner would be combat skills Even if Chi-Woo had retained all his experiences as a hero, Hawa had undergone rigorous training since she was young and escaped death by a hairbreadthdrawbacks, she was confident in winning

Thus, Hawa dived into a full-on offensive She kicked her left and right feet fast and irregularly while shortening the distance between the Chi-Woo’s hands busy When there was less than asideways; her leg folded like a crane instead before soaring upwards Chi-Woo hurriedly tipped his head back, and Hawa’s feet brushed past his jaw, ain, and as if she had expected him to do just that, Hawa dived in with her next attack

Ba and hit Chi-Woo’s left eye Hawa felt a heavy thud through her hand and became sure that she had landed an effective blow ‘It worked,’ she thought, but then Hawa’s eyes widened Although she had struck hi It felt as if she had hit a boulder with her bare fist

The next ripped the fist Hawa had thrown Hawa flinched It was surprising that Chi-Woo hadn’t backed away nor even groaned after getting hit Unlike the tiht punch, Chi-Woo faced Haith strained, bloodshot eyes Before Hawa could pull her hand back out, he yanked her towards hireat force

Thud The iushed out of her nose

“Ah—” Haavered It was Chi-Woo’s turn to rush forward now Even as she backed away, Haung her left fist, but Chi-Woo dodged out of the way gracefully by bending his waist Haas then fully exposed, so Chi-Woo rushed towards her But at that es of her lips She was s like was assured of her victory

Hawa knew Chi-Woo had let the punch land on his eye on purpose She then predicted his next actions and guided hi her left fist widely tofor the saht ar Chi-Woo flinch as her plan fell into place, Haas certain she would secure the victory with this punch, but then…her right fist side in the air

‘What?’ The punch that didn’t land ended up breaking Hawa’s balance She gaped slightly to see that Chi-Woo had never straightened his body He had purposefully broken his balance and toppled over As a result, Hawa’s fist had only grazed the top of Chi-Woo’s head

‘How did he respond to that?’ Her ti had been perfect Even if Chi-Woo had sensed what she was going to do, his body shouldn’t have been able to keep up Haas especially confident about her agility and quick reflex, so she was boggled by Chi-Woo’s i it

The wide attack left an opening as her body struggled to regain balance Chi-Woo bounced off the ground like a spring and didn’this fist while re all the humiliation and pain he had to suffer

Punch!

“Ack!” Chi-Woo struck Hawa in her sto into the air and slaasp that she had been holding in, she quickly spun around because Chi-Woo was throwing another punch

Bae cracks on it Hawa’s pupils shook slightly at the sight, but Chi-Woo’s attacks continued While enduring the pain in her sto and clihs around his neck while twisting his arhhh!”

“Kuhhhh!

Chi-Woo groaned from the pain, and Hawa yelled as she tried to hold Chi-Woo back

“Ahh!” Hawa screaony All red frohs and ripped off a piece of her flesh Shocked, Hawa kicked fervently and tried to escape, but Chi-Woo didn’t let her go Even as he got kicked, he didn’t let go of Hawa’s ankle After succeeding in throwing her down, Chi-Woo climbed on top of her and attempted to punch her He struck his fist and elbon continuously If the fight turned into a messy brawl instead of a battle of techniques, Chi-Woo was at an advantage with his better durability; and this had been Chi-Woo’s plan all along after seeing Hawa’s user inforer resist She si to block the attacks

After the barrage of punches, Chi-Woo forcefully pulled Hawa’s arms away, but when he saw her face, he stopped Haas bleeding from her nose, her lips had burst, and her eyes were brown and blue Her slightly ajar lips tre as well After seeing the look of fear in her eyes, Chi-Woo stopped attacking In Hawa’s point-of-view, the current Chi-Woo in front of her was the definition of a beast

There was only ani on Chi-Woo’s mind was to kill his opponent And Ha fully realized what being Chi-Woo’s enee in attitudethat he hadn’t tried his best before However, that wasn’t it Chi-Woo hadn’t gone easy on her before, but he had also never considered Hawa his enemy He had always treated her like a roommate or a companion, but once he saw her as an enemy, he acted like an entirely different person This was how Chi-Woo treated his enee this ot up after seeing that Hawa see hilint, and while lying down, she kicked Chi-Woo’s private area

“Ugh!” Chi-Woo iave out, and he clutched on his hurting bits while screa, “Eh! Ehhh!”

“You should have…finished properly” Hawa laughed and stood up “You have to stay vigilant at all tiered to Chi-Woo and was about to kick him in the face

Bam!
