"Shit... How dare you scratch my face? " Cleo cursed while touching the scar that is on her face.
"Ahahaha... I am finally able to hurt your face. " The woman shouted, laughing madly. Did you guys see that? I scratched her face. " Zea is delighted to be able to hurt Cleo's face.
Everyone was surprised. Before, no one had been able to hurt her face. They wanted to see blood coming out because of Zea's scratch, but couldn't even see a drop. The ones who are watching don't see any blood coming out of the face that got scratched.
Cleo looks at Zea coldly. She admits that this is the first time someone has hurt her. Because of Zea's doing, her mask got damaged, since the android system she is using can't be scratched by any blade.
Zea feels that there is something strange about Cleo's face. She can't see any blood but realizes that there is something wrong. She becomes curious and wants to hurt Cleo again by attacking.
Wait!! Give me time to check my face first. " Cleo said, touching her face, making Zea's steps stop. "Dang, you ruined the face I've liked all these years, and it's really hard to make it," Cleo grumbled, making Zea raise her eyebrow.
"Why aren't you bleeding?" Zea asked, feeling extremely curious.
"Hmm... that's because this is my face. My real face isn't scratched, so it's not bleeding, "Cleo said. "Looks like I can't use this face anymore," Cleo said as she took her fake face-off.
The woman in front of her couldn't believe what she was seeing. An ugly woman has now transformed into a beautiful woman. That made her feel even more annoyed. She didn't know that Shadow was hiding her beauty.
Everyone was shocked when Cleo let go of that fake face. The face they knew had a scar. But now it has turned into a beautiful girl's face. A sharp nose, grey-ish white hair, and smooth skin that looks like it has no pores at all, completed with blue eyes that are so beautiful to look at. Several male seniors instantly admired her beauty.
"She grew into a white rose with poisoned thorns," Nathan said with a smile. "Now those who mock her will worship her."
The battle arena became excited after seeing that real face, Cleo. Seeing that, Sea becomes jealous because she thinks that Cleo took everyone's support from her. Everyone's attention is on Cleo.
"I didn't know that Shadow was a beautiful girl," someone gasped.
"She looks really pretty."
She's been hiding her beauty all this time. She's a beast, but... a beautiful woman. "
Zea, who saw that, became furious because she made Cleo let go of that ugly fake face. Her emotions in a storm, Zea wanted to scratch the girl's face once again. Zea once again attacks Cleo in a hurry, without knowing that Cleo had pulled out her knife earlier when she attacked her opponent. Cleo slashed her thigh.
I'm not even in a bad mood, and you challenged me. I warned you, but you didn't listen. " Cleo said, emotionally.
Zea grimaced because of the wound in her thigh.
Damn you, Shadow..." Zea cursed, making Shadow's face smile.
"You just had a taste of my knife, right?" Cleo asked, showing her knife. Use all the strength you have to defeat me. I know you underestimated me and, because of that, you didn't give it your all. " Cleo said, making Zea giggle.
"Ahahahaha... "It's amazing. You can even realize that I didn't use all of my strength," Zea said.
Making the current battle arena so gripping, Cleo said, "If you don't put all your strength into this, you will die."
When Cleo said, "You're going to die," everyone knew that she meant what she said. A mistake A Sea made when fighting Cleo was that she became emotional instead of using her ability to think. That's what makes Cleo able to beat her opponents.
The emotions that fill Zea's mind and her desire to kill Cleo make her commit multiple attacks. But none of them injured Cleo. Their fight becomes fierce, and Cleo's opponent attacks her blindly, but Cleo just keeps on avoiding each one of them.
"Stop dodging like a stupid person," Sea said furiously. "Fight and show me your capabilities." Are you only good at dodging? " Zea said mockingly, making Cleo's blood boil.
Her gaze towards Zea was intense, and Cleo's former calm grasp on her knife became tight. When her enemy was in front of her, Cleo slashed Zea's arm.
Cleo is now attacking Zea mercilessly. Inch by inch, her opponent's body is now covered with cuts.
Didn't I say that you'd never be able to beat me? I have fought a lot more people than you. My experience is far better than yours. " Cleo said, stopping her attacks when she saw that Zea couldn't fight her anymore.
Everyone who saw what Cleo did shivered in fear, their bodies shaking. Nathan can't believe that Cleo's capabilities have become this great, and neither can Charles.
When Cleo was looking around, Zea took the chance to attack Cleo. However, what she expected didn't happen. Her knife that was being swung to attack Cleo failed to get her because her opponent was quick to dodge to the right and grabbed Zea's arm, which Cleo used to slash her neck.
Blood gushed out of Zea's neck, getting onto Cleo's face, who had won the fight. Meanwhile, the woman who fought her now lay helplessly on the arena's floor with a cut on her neck.
Seeing that her opponent died in such a tragic way, Cleo took her coat off and placed it on Zea's face as a token of her respect.
"Hmm... "I've said that you aren't strong enough to fight me, but you still did," Cleo said, looking at Zea's corpse with pity.
Since a long time ago, they have always been taught to win in any battle. The losers will not survive because they fall prey to the strong. However, over time, this regulation has been abolished.
Cleo took a deep breath. Her hair that had been flowing down was now tied up, showing off her beautiful neck. Everyone who saw it was mesmerized, but looked away when they remembered that the woman was a demon.
When a few people opened the arena's door, she went out gracefully, showing her beautiful and gentle face that has to be avoided by others.
"If you want to challenge me, fight me yourself; don't make others sacrifice themselves for you," Cleo said, making the ones there look at each other.
