chapter 12# Meredith Aslanov VS Jade Mantis

After meeting Meridith Aslanov, we trained for two months. Although her talent is slightly lower than Jade Mantis, she's exceptionally gifted, boasting a 9/10 in looks with beautiful and unique orange eyes. Her greatest talent lies in Muay Thai.

Improving day by day, after two months of training together, she has reached a formidable level 5.0. Jade Mantis, on the other hand, has advanced to level 6.0. Now, I'm planning a gathering...

AFTER A FEW HOURS...

I sit on the floor at a table, with Meridith Aslanov and Jade Mantis in front of me.

"So, as you know, I was under attack by Charles Choi Gun Park and Goo Kim."

Jade asks, "Goo Kim? My friend, why did he fight you?"

"He fought me because he's under Chairman Choi."

"And you won?" inquire the duo.

"OF COURSE! I AM THE STRONGEST AFTER ALL," I reply with a confident smile, while the duo remains blank-faced.

They both say, "Sure..."

"I want Meridith to fight Jade," I announce.

She agrees, and on the left is Meridith with a Muay Thai stance, while on the right is Jade with a Taekwondo stance. Gojo Satoru, in front of them, declares, "Ready!!" and shouts, "START!"

At high speed, Jade attacks with Taekwondo kicks, but Meridith blocks them with difficulty due to the 1.0 level difference. Meridith retaliates with a kick to Jade's leg and quickly follows up with a punch to his face, causing only a nosebleed. Then, he uses a boxing punch that Meridith fails to block, and she falls to her knees, holding her nose, saying, "Ahhh... that hurt."

Jade laughs and says, "You deserve it."

Meridith gets off her knees, stands up, and throws a punch that Jade anticipates. However, he gets kicked in his vital point, his crotch. Gojo Satoru instinctively puts his hand on his crotch, and Jade, on the ground, exclaims, "Damn! That hurts like hell."

Gojo Satoru declares, "Meridith Aslanov won, albeit by cheating. In a real fight, the opponent will not fight fair."

"Come to think of it, after a week, we have the God Dog arc, right?"

A WEEK LATER...

He goes to the place where Johan is supposed to be betrayed, hiding in a tree. Daniel Park arrives and says, "Johan, let's stop it." However, he gets attacked by Johan and lies on the ground. Johan says, "Give me a break. Without any power, you can't protect anything. I'll teach you that lesson now."

Unexpectedly, Johan is attacked from behind with a bat. He questions, "Why?" and gets an explanation. In a rage, Johan defeats all the former God Dog members, with Gun Park on the bench and Gojo Satoru appearing beside Gun Park. Gun Park, annoyed, says, "White Snow Death, can you stop it?" After he utters "White Snow Death," Johan, Daniel Park, and Vasco gasp for breath.

"W-H-Hite Sno-w Death??!! The legend who destroyed the 0 pre-generation Charles Choi, Gun Park, and Goo Kim..."

Gun Park's eyes twitch behind his eyes upon hearing that he was defeated.
