Chapter 387: Change Him To Big Brother!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Was it okay to lose?
Of course not!
Quentin said, “Let us face them in a match! We’ll kick their a*ses!”
The organizer looked at him and shook his head again. “Sigh. Let’s talk about it again after you watch their match.”
Quentin didn’t understand what he meant, but shortly after, he did.
He’d originally thought that Victor must be the strongest among the three, but unexpectedly, the bald black man next to him was actually the strongest.
His body was as if it was made out of steel, and he seemed immune to all attacks. All the teams they were up against were from Class D, but the three of them played them all like they were babies.
Victor wasn’t that lacking in martial arts ethics anymore this time.
The victory was theirs once the three of them threw their opponents out of the ring.
There was no applause around them. Victor was quiet and didn’t say anything. The bald man next to him rubbed his bald head and said something in a foreign language.
Someone who didn’t understand asked, “What did he say?”
Cherry translated it for him. “He said, ‘Isn’t there anyone in America who can fight?’”
“…”
That one line from her made everyone fall silent.
Even Quentin, who was usually the chattiest person ever, had a serious look on his face. He stared at them for quite a while before he finally leaned toward Nora and asked, “Big Sister, did you notice…”
“They’ve become stronger.”
Nora answered him straightaway.
Quentin immediately nodded. “Yes, and it isn’t just by a little. Why do I feel like Victor can last a few dozen moves against you now?”
Nora replied, “Twenty moves.”
Quentin: “…”
Big Sister was simply so confident!
But!
He felt an acute sense of crisis. “I was originally ranked third in New York, but I feel threatened by that guy now. Aside from Big Brother and Big Sister, there’s probably no one else who would be their match now, right? I can only tie with them at the most.”
The organizer sighed and said, “Now you understand why I asked you guys to watch the match, right? It’ll probably only be possible to defeat them if Big Brother and Big Sister team up!”
Quentin nodded at once. “I think so, too.”
Even if he could stop Victor, Big Sister would have a hard time dealing with the other two by herself.
The organizer said, “Out of all the teams, Team Third In The World has the highest chance of beating them. Therefore, from tomorrow onward, I intend to arrange five matches for you guys every day, so that you can enter Class F as soon as possible. This way, you’ll be able to go up against them! Otherwise, if they hog the Class F seats and clamor there every day, won’t we die of anger? I wonder if the three of you would agree to it?”
Justin looked straight at Nora and said, “She has the final say.”
The organizer: “…”
He looked at Nora.
Nora kept quiet for a moment before she nodded. “Okay.”
She was duty-bound to uphold the American pride in their martial arts.
The organizer looked at Quentin again.
Quentin, who had a stern look on his face, hesitated for very long before he finally said, “Okay! After all, as the person ranked third in the world, who else can do it, if not me?”
The organizer finally breathed a sigh of relief and left.
After he left, Quentin walked over to Justin and Nora. “Big Sister, I think the three of us may not be able to win against the three of them because we have someone in the team holding us back.”
Both Justin and Nora nodded.
And wasn’t that so?
He had quite a lot of self-awareness after all.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Quentin said to Justin, “How about you withdraw from the team? If we replace you with Big Brother, we likely won’t have any problems anymore!”
Justin: “??”
He let out a low scoff of laughter. He was about to speak when a woman’s cold and urgent voice reached them. “No, I don’t want that.”
Quentin: “?”
Justin also looked at her, only to see dissatisfaction in Nora’s almond-shaped eyes. “I don’t want to be in the same team as him.”
Justin: “…”
Quentin was also dumbfounded. “Huh? Why?”
“We don’t get along.” After giving a brief explanation, Nora looked at Justin and added, “Besides, he isn’t weak. The three of us can do it.”
Only Nora, who had fought with him before, knew how strong Justin truly was. Quentin usually fought very valiantly against their opponents, so he had basically dealt with the opponents for Justin. Moreover, he was carrying Cherry, which made Nora worried that she would get hurt, so she also helped him out all the time.
As a result, despite being on the same team, Quentin still didn’t know how strong Justin ‘The Pretty Boy’ was.
Quentin liked Big Sister, but he also liked Big Brother very much.
He couldn’t help but speak up for Big Brother. “Big Sister, what did Big Brother do to you? Did he steal your baby? Or did he steal your husband? Why are you so at odds with him?”
Nora: “…”
Quentin scratched his head. “Besides, I know you definitely think highly of your husband, but shouldn’t we be realistic? You can’t just think that your husband isn’t weak just because beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”
Then, he held his arm up, raised his chin, and said, “Or how about I compete with him in a duel? If he can beat me, he can stay in the team.”
Nora glanced at him and left.
Justin also glanced at him and left.
Quentin: “??”
What did those two mean by that? Why did he feel as if the more he looked at them, the more he felt like something was wrong?
Were they looking down on him?
The corners of his lips spasmed and he chased after them. However, he could no longer see the two of them.
Never mind.
He would just look for his cousin first.
He went one round in the arena but didn’t find her. In the end, he decided to go to the car park and wait for her!!
No matter where she was, she would eventually have to go to the car park, right?
Nora and Justin had already turned the corner and gone onto the path at the side. After confirming that there was no one on either side, Justin said, “I know those two people that teamed up with Victor. They have been here since the start of the tournament, but at that time, they weren’t as strong as they are now.”
“So, that means they’ve also become stronger?”
Nora asked hesitantly.
Justin nodded.
Nora took out the drink pouch that Justin stole from Victor and asked, “Do you know what Morris told me?”
Justin practically replied without any hesitation, “Human experiments?”
Nora was surprised. “You know about it?”
“I was guessing.”
Nora wasn’t doubtful anymore. Given how smart Justin was, he must have already figured out something from the point where Morris started to frequently check whether there were any unknown chemicals in Old Maddy’s body.
A puzzled Justin asked, “Are you suspecting that their increase in strength is related to illegal drugs?”
Nora raised the pouch she was holding. “I will know whether there’s any relation once I check the chemical composition of the stuff in here overnight.”
Justin nodded. The two walked to the car park.
Nora had only just come up to her black jeep when Quentin came after her.
