43: Fight for freedom [pt2]

Everyone looked stunned as they watched a small cat girl take down a huge dude. The audience was in shock but they soon broke into cheers.

Clair seemed oblivious to all their charms as she hopped back to her group with a fake innocent expression on her face. Only her eyes looked greedy and satisfied after having punched into the ground.

"So, how did I do? Was I too shabby? Did I need to be more flashy? Think you can do better than me, old hag?"

Clair was enjoying her spotlight and the so-called old hag, Shimi clenched her fists in rage. But Shimi had a proud look on her face as well.

"Y-You did well in preventing the grandmaster's honour from being tarnished.*cough* but of course, I will do better than you. Just wait and watch me outshine you."

Shimi stepped out without even being called. Her confident gaze challenged anyone to say anything against her and the announcer looked nervous.
