Before The Storm

[Seems like the match concluded.]

"…"

Mika looked at the arena, where the loud cheers came from.

He was still in the streets.

Everyone else was also looking in the direction of the arena.

However, among those people, someone in a coat was approaching Mika.

"!"

Mika noticed the person's presence too late.

The person was already within arm's reach.

"Oh, you noticed me? And I thought this coat would hide my presence…" the person said disappointedly.

As the person lifted their head, the black eyes of a woman were revealed.

She leaned closer to him.

"But I guess, I know why." she added with a wide smile.

Mika immediately tried to move away but was stopped by her.

"Don't make a commotion here if you don't want me to go on a rampage here." she whispered slyly.

"Tch…"

He gritted his teeth.

"Let's settle this somewhere else." she said, looking at the dark alley beside them.
