Chapter 1440


    While Nanako was visiting her mentor, Kazuki, she heard the news that Victoria, the Australian


    athlete that Aurora had defeated in the match today, was also currently receiving treatment at the


    Silverwing Hospital. 5


    Hiroshi had specifically gone to inquire about the matter, and he came back with results that truly


    shocked Nanako.

    It turned out that both of Victoria’s arms had been broken by Aurora''s kick during the match. Now,


    she had already put on a ster cast, and she had already officially announced her withdrawal from


    the match t o determine third ce in thepetition for the day after tomorrow. Michelle, the


    opponent that Nanako defeated, had immediately obtained the title of third ce in thepetition


    due to Victoria’s forfeiture.


    Moreover, Victoria not only withdrew from thispetition, but there was a high possibility that she


    would be retiringpletely, i


    This was because the arms were very important for abat and fighting athlete. After getting her


    arms broken, it would be very difficult for her to recover and return to her previous state and


    condition even after full recovery. 4


    The impact would be lifelong for a professional athlete.


    It would have most likely ruined her career.


    Nanako was stunned when she heard the news.


    She knew that Victoria had gotten injured and hurt both of her arms in the match. However, she did


    not expect Victoria to be injured that badly. 6


    Victoria was also a top-levelbat and fighting athlete, but Aurora had broken her arms with just a


    single kick. This proved that Aurora''s physical strength and power were already far beyond what an


    ordinary person could ever aspire to. 4


    Although Nanako was more capable and had greater abilitiespared to Victoria, she was only


    more skillful and experienced aspared to Victoria. Nevertheless, her physical fitness and


    strength were still slightly worsepared to Victoria, who was a Caucasian. 7


    If even Victoria could not resist Aurora’s blow, Nanako understood that it would be very dangerous


    for her when she faced Aurora in the final match the day after tomorrow. 2


    After listening to this, Kazuki could not help but sigh and say, "Nanako, if you want my opinion, I


    think that you should just forfeit the match that will be held the day after tomorrow."


    Nanako asked in surprise, "Master, whatever do you mean? Why are you asking me to forfeit the


    game at this time? Didn''t you tell me that a real warrior will never surrender or give in without putting


    on a fight?!"


    Kazuki sighed and said, "That’s only under any normal circumstances! You have also seen for


    yourself that Aurora is extremely strong. If youpete against her, you will very likely get seriously


    injured. If so, you will not only be losing a match, but you might also lose your entire career!” 2


    Nanako pursed her lips as she murmured in a low voice, "If I retreat and forfeit this match without


    putting on a fight this time, how will I have the face to continue practicingbat and fighting in the


    future? Isn''t there a saying in Oskia that states that a person has to take risks despite knowing the


    dangers?" 6


    Kazuki promptly replied, "There is also a saying in Oskia that states that there is nothing to fear as


    long a s you still have your core strength. When there is life, there is hope! However, if you get


    seriously injured in the match, your future career will bepletely ruined!” 9


    Nanako replied resolutely, "Master, I finally got Charlie to look up to me and gain some respect for


    me after great difficulties today. If I give up on the match and forfeit without even putting up a fight,


    he will definitely despise and look down on me. Therefore, I will not run away. On the contrary, I will


    definitely try my best in the finals. If I proceed in going forward to give it my all in the match, I will


    lose with dignity even if I lose in the finals!" 6


    Kazuki sighed as he said, "Sigh! It would have been great if Charlie was willing to ept you as his


    apprentice. However, based on Charlie''s current attitude, it seems as though he is really unwilling to


    d o so. So what if you prove your strength and abilities i n front of him?! In his eyes, you are nothing


    more than a foreigner!"


    "It doesn''t matter." Nanako smiled before she said softly, "It doesn''t matter if he takes me as his


    disciple o r not. I just do not want him to despise or look down o n me!" 2


    Kazuki understood Nanako’s character and personality very well. He knew that she had a very firm


    and determined attitude. He also knew that it would be absolutely impossible for him to change her


    mind once she had already made a decision and set her mind on something.


    Thus, he looked at Hiroshi who was standing next to her as he said, "Tanaka, when you see that


    Miss Ito is already injured in the ring, you have to raise the white g and throw the towel to the


    referee in time. Do you understand?"


    Hiroshi was about to nod in response when Nanako scolded him with a cold expression on her


    face," Tanaka-san! You should never raise the white g or throw in the towel at any time! I can


    ept any form 0 f defeat in the match, but I will never be able to ept taking the initiative to


    admit defeat!"
