249 Chapter 249

~whoosh~

{What the…?!} – Charlie's eyes opened wide.

~bam~

At the last instant, Juno dodged the blow that must have been fatal (according to Charlie) and jabbed her fist imbued with pure energy hard in his gut. A loud thump and a sizzling crackle of lightning thundered all over the arena. Charlie rolled over on the ground a dozen meters until he stopped, coughing, his body bent over like a cooked shrimp.

He had to use pure energy to be able to breathe again.

The audience couldn't believe their eyes. Would ever a stronger fighter be willing to be beaten time after time? Or was he still controlling the force of the blow because he didn't want to hurt the girl, which would make him look like a jerk?

«What if Charlie is actually a masochist, and he likes it when our lady beats him?» – Lee asked Stephanie loud enough for everyone to hear.

His words echoed in everyone's minds, making the audience wondering if it was really true.
