Chapter 593 Tricked
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖
Although the boss of the 'Blue Hydra' gang was caught completely off-guard and had his face smashed in by Emilia's knee, the crimson-haired girl was actually able to control her speed and strength pretty well in front of the cameras. After all, while revealing some of her strength would be great at dazzling and inspiring people, too much of it would just leave them stunned and terrified.
She ignored the enraged screaming of the now bloody-mouthed gang leader, and turned her eyes to the hulking figures who now surrounded her wide-eyed.
Obviously, none of them expected that before they'd even started teaching the White Deer Corporation's staff an unforgettable lesson, a little girl would jump into the fray and down their boss in one shot.
It wasn't really as terrifying as it was absurd, and a few of them couldn't help but look at their purple-faced boss in confusion.
The man was clearly in no mood to pay any of them any heed, however, and instead jumped at little Emi in fury. 'If I don't pluck out all of her fucking teeth one by one today, I'll fucking turn myself into a saint!'
No one else knew how humiliated he felt to have had four of his front teeth broken by a sneak attack from a glorified toddler, and even if he tore her apart on the spot now, maybe this disgrace would forever leave an unwashable stain on his career.
Of course, just like everyone else, he also thought that the little girl must only have managed to land that hit because of the element of surprise combined with her luck.
The boss might have suffered for the moment, but the situation was still very much in their control.
After all, if the White Deer's side had any real trump cards, they wouldn't just be standing there filming this little girl get surrounded by their whole gang, right?
"None of you move. I'll destroy this little bitch myself!"
Unfortunately, while his declaration was bold and handsome, the slight slurring of his speech, the whistling sound from between his broken teeth, and the continuous stream of blood flowing down his chin completely ruined the 'dashing' image of Blue Hydra's boss.
The more he missed, the worse his speech became, almost merging into an incoherent roar of rage soon after.
Some of the staff felt a little uncomfortable at the liberal use of such 'harsh' language in front of someone like little Emi, who appeared so young, but it wasn't really that out of the norm in their industry, and everyone had to get exposed to it sooner or later. This was especially so considering the already violent and sensitive subject of their commercial.
Plus, given the fact that these were real thugs probably acting for the first time in their lives, if they didn't accidentally hurt little Emi, the result could already be considered good enough.
The crimson-haired girl humphed arrogantly as she dodged another enraged punch from the gang leader of Blue Hydra, and the man finally couldn't bear it anymore and motioned for his men to throw over his dual butterfly knives.
"Fuck it, since you refuse to repent, I'll just turn you into ribbons of meat!"
Unfortunately, the hand he had raised up high to grab the thrown-over knives remained empty as he was forced to kneel on the ground by a merciless kick to the back of his kneecap.
To make matters worse, his prized knife set was also snatched from mid air by the annoying little crimson-haired midget, who sneered in disgust.
"How weak can you not even dare to fight against someone less than half your age without weapons? Pathetic."
The boss was so furious that he almost burst a vein, but before he could, he was cleanly knocked into the dreamland by a 'gentle' roundhouse kick to the temple.
As the kneeling man's already bloodied face smashed into the ground with a painful muffled thump, the people watching couldn't help but shudder.
The gangsters especially were completely dumbfounded, and they couldn't help but look at the little girl in front of them a little more warily.
Their boss might be more smart than strong, but not even the eight 'superweapons' of Blue Hydra felt confident that they would be able to take the man down with such ease.
Even if she had the initial advantage of the element of surprise, there was no doubt that this little girl wasn't a threat to be taken lightly.
Of course, everyone other than the gangsters only thought that the man had a lot of natural acting talent, and made excellent use of advanced props to get such realistic effects. bined with the 'subtle' shaking of Emilia's pupils instantly restored much of the gangster's lost confidence.
'Look, it's just a desperate little girl trying to act like a hero, after all! She might be fast and swift, but in the end she's alone and vulnerable!' They thought.
Of course, this was exactly the effect Emilia was looking for, and she immediately pointed at the weakest-looking of the eight 'tough guys' who came forward to confront her first.
"Y-You, if you dare, I challenge you to a fair fight!"
The heavily muscled man who was ignored by the little girl snorted. 'So she really doesn't dare fight me… that's good. I was overestimating her strength just now, fortunately.'
Well, it was good to use his 'colleague' to test the waters a little more and exhaust the girl a little. After all, no matter how strong he was, the little girl's speed really was too troublesome for him to handle unless she was tired out first.
With their confidence somewhat restored, the rest of the gangsters also laughed after sensing her apparent fear, many inwardly heaving a sigh of relief upon realizing that her previous act was all just false bravado.
Clearly, she was avoiding the strongest of their 'super weapons', but the fool didn't even realize that even the weakest of the eight was stronger than their 'leader' in terms of raw strength.
The man who had been pointed out as the weakest obviously felt insulted at being underestimated by even a little girl, and sneered in fury as he stepped forward. "Let me go forward and teach this little kid a lesson then, brothers." 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m
