Chapter 49 One On One
Sylvia''s POV:
"Harry! Are you insane? I told you to deal with Sylvia, not me!" Cherry shouted angrily. She couldn''t
believe that Harry just kicked her off the stage.
The whole thing happened so suddenly and fast that everyone was shocked.
"I''m not yourckey. I don''t have to do as you say." Harry looked down upon Cherry from the stage.
Suddenly, I felt the urge to fix my eyes on him. Despite his unruly head of hair that made him look
like a talking pineapple, I couldn''t help feeling a surge of respect and admiration for him. In my eyes,
he glowed with bright, holy light like a true warrior.
Cherry''s eyes widened in surprise and then narrowed in fury. When she was about to say
something else, a judge asked her to leave. "An eliminated student cannot stay in the venue. Leave
or yourprehensive score will be zero." Overwhelmed with rage and humiliation, Cherry burst
into tears on the spot. She started wailing as if she was a victim of unfair treatment. The judge who
asked her to leave had to get the guards to forcefully drag her out.
But I was not in the mood to worry about her. I still had apetition to win. Harry didn''t fight with
me. Instead, he turned around and targeted Cherry''s pursuer, Allen.
Although I was surprised, I didn''t read much into Harry''s decision. I just focused and fought with
Davin a. Davin a lost her backbone after Cherry was thrown out of the room. The way she threw
punches became ridiculously erratic, as if she had lost her soul. It was only a matter of time before
she attempted a miscalcted attack that I easily countered, and I knocked her off the stage.
Soon, Harry had also defeated Allen. He looked right at me. Although he still looked arrogant to me,
he no longer annoyed me like hell.
"I underestimated you, ve. You did a fine job in the first two rounds of thepetition. Didn''t you
want to fight me alone? Well, here''s your chance. Go ahead. Hit me with your best shot." Harry
straightened his back and put on a smug smile.
With that, I suddenly changed my mind about him being annoying. But although he could be
painfully conceited, he wasn''t an evil werewolf. He was strong, and he was a formidable opponent. I
supposed that earned him the right to be lofty.
"My dear, how about you forfeit now? You have already secured second ce in the group. Even if
you admit defeat, you will still enter ss C. You may not be able to defeat Harry, and the judges
may deduct points from you if you go on fighting," Yana reminded me in a low voice.
I eyed Harry carefully. Yana''s words made sense, but I didn''t want to admit defeat. I wanted to fight
to the end.
"All right. Let''s fight!" As soon as I finished my words, I threw a punch at Harry.
I watched in horror as he smoothly sidestepped out of my way and let my fist touch nothing but air.
He was unbelievably fast and sure-footed. I immediately thought that if I moved like he did, I''d be
infuriatingly pompous, too. Cherry and her followers were absolutely no match for him.
Before I could recover from my miss, Harry went on the offensive, and I scrambled to either block
his attacks or get out of his way. He didn''t have his hand on me, yet I felt like he was pinning me
down by the neck. I couldn''t find an opening tond a single punch, which reminded me of the time I
fought Rufus.
After a few minutes of nonstop strikes, Harry backed off and let me catch my breath. He clicked his
tongue and shook his head.
"You''re too slow and weak. Defeating you will bring me no honor. Just forfeit, will you?"
The disdainful look on Harry''s face reminded me of Rufus. Yes, Harry was stronger than me, but I
still believed that I could knock him out. When I faced Rufus, I was really unable to fight back.
The thought of Rufus calmed me down. Memories of our unforgettable fight flooded my head. He
really had me then and never allowed me tond a single blow.
I chuckled. "You are too confident in yourself, Harry. I have fought with someone much stronger
than you."
"You''re bragging when you couldn''t even defeat me? Let me tell you something—no one is stronger
than me. Otherwise, I would''ve met him or her already." Harry was unconvinced.

"Maybe you''re already looking at her." I shed him a defiant smile.
"Oh, really? Well, maybe I should just quit being considerate and teach you a lesson." Harry waved
his fist at me, and his facial expression became serious.
I turned my head and easily dodged his attack. Then, I mped my hand on his shoulder, imitating
the move Rufus used. As my heart sang and burned with surging fighting spirit, I sneered, "I''d like to
see you try."
