Chapter 48: Siege


    Sylvia’s POV:


    After drawing lots, we were instructed to wait for thepetition to begin at the stands.When I got


    there, I saw that Cherry and the other three of my group mates were already there.They all looked at


    me with malice in their eyes, most especially Cherry.


    I had no doubt she was plotting against me again.

    Sure enough, as soon as the whistle blew, indicating us to get ready, Cherry and her two followers


    spread out as if they were surrounding me.


    I looked warily at them and was going to step back until I realized Harry was behind me as well.It


    seemed that they were going to eliminate me first together.


    "Damn it! They’re going to gang up on you.Be careful of their dirty tricks, my dear!" Yana warned me.


    My heart grew heavier and heavier.I was at a huge disadvantage right now.


    When I first saw the result of the grouping, I already knew this test was going to be the hardest yet.


    Obviously, I couldn’t fight all four of them at the same time.


    But I was determined not to waste all my efforts today and go out with no points at all.I turned my head.


    I stared into Cherry’s eyes.


    If she wanted me to fail, then she would have to go down with me.


    Even if it meant getting eliminated too early, at least I defeated one of them and earn myself twenty


    points.


    The whistle sounded for a second time, signifying the official beginning of thest round.


    Immediately, Cherry and her two followers came running toward me from different sides.


    With the fiercest expressions on their faces, they were ready to attack me together.


    First, I was able to dodge Cherry’s fist by taking two steps back, but in the process, Allen mmed my


    back with his arm.


    Losing my bnce, I had to pounce forward to regain it again.


    Cherry tried another swing at me and I barely dodged it.I clutched my chest and coughed.


    The blow to my back was painful.


    Before I could even catch my breath, Cherry was alreadying at me again.


    When I saw a small window of opportunity, I grabbed her cor and strangled her neck.


    A judge on the side raised a colored card, announcing that what I did was not allowed.


    Because of that, I already had deductions before I even got any points.I panicked deep inside and got


    worried.


    Seeing that I was distracted for a moment, Cherry and her two followers seized the chance and chased


    me to the edge of the field.


    Just as I was about to fall out, I grabbed onto Cherry’s hair and refused to let any part of my body hit


    beyond the edge.


    All of a sudden, I saw Allen reach out to tear my clothes.


    He was going to strip me naked and humiliate me in public! What a shameless and dirty trick! I had no


    choice but to let go of Cherry’s hair and pull myself upward, kicking Allen away from me.


    Cherry saw this and kicked me back.


    "Bitch, why don’t you just give up? Get out of here and maybe I’ll spare your life."


    Hearing Cherry’s words fueled my rage and I gritted my teeth, not bothering to respond to her verbally.


    I dodged several of their attacks by moving side to side, analyzing theyout of the field at the same


    time and trying to find a way out.


    The field was big enough, fortunately, so Cherry and her little followers couldn’t get to me immediately.


    "Harry, get over here and help!" Cherry shouted angrily.


    All this time, Harry had just been watching us on the side.


    When he heard Cherry call him, he slowly walked over to us.


    I noticed that Cherry looked a little surprised, as if she wasn’t expecting Harry to actually listen to her.


    But almost instantly, her expression switched into a cocky one.


    "Oh, you’re doomed, filthy ve."


    Davina wrapped her arm around me, and I couldn’t break away.As Harry got closer, I grew more and


    more desperate.


    Not to mention how exhausted I already was at this point.I wasn’t sure if I had enough strength to fight


    off all four of them now.


    The sweat on my forehead dripped into my eyes, blurring my vision.I closed my eyes shortly and took a


    deep breath, preparing myself for onest wave of resistance.


    All of a sudden, Harry unexpectedly walked up to Cherry first, kicking her so hard that she flew right off


    of the field’s boundaries.


    No one had seen thising at all.With wide eyes, I stared at Harry, unsure of what I should do next.
