When Wyatt was busy sorting the identity of each individual in the crowd Jaya prepared to fight Gloria as the crowd cheered on. Jaya was confident she could defeat Gloria as long as the Southern Capital City’s street fight rules were the same as in Sky Blossom City’s streets. “Cow, you’ll regret crossing me,” Gloria threatened Jaya however her eyes shortly glanced over at Adriene while smiling smugly. Provoked, Adriene took a step forward to put an end to this sick game, but her vice-captain stopped her. Though they could not escort the girl to safety as intended, they managed to give the girl a fair fight. With JJ siding with Cervos on this matter, there wasn’t much they could do. At least they managed to give the girl a fair fight. Though with Gloria as her opponent, the chances of her survival were basically nil. But this was the best they could do. Continuing to resist wouldn’t just put the girl in danger but their faction members too. If the girl dies in the process of their resistance the sacrifices of their faction members would be a waste. In their current state, they had to pick their battles. If the girl manages to survive Gloria, they will have enough basis to speak for her. Seeing Adriene’s reaction, Gloria’s mood instantly improved and her smug smile morphed into a wide grin. She was enjoying this. Her face flushed with red imagining the look on Adriene’s face as she killed the country cow. After all, there was no way the country hick could hold a candle against her. Tightening her grip around the handle of Shadow Fang Gloria swiftly closed the distance between herself and Jaya. Seeing Gloria rush toward her, Jaya grinned in her mind knowing that Gloria was underestimating her and it would cost her a life. Gathering all her strength in her fists with a determined look in her eyes Jaya waited for the perfect moment.

When Gloria appeared before Jaya with her arm poised to strike, in that fraction of a second, Jaya brandished her fist striking at the center of Gloria’s chest with all her might summoning her highest attack speed. *Boom*

Jaya’s fist instantly pierced through Gloria’s chest and the force from the impact spread through Gloria’s body causing it to balloon up and burst showering Jaya with blood and gore. The shockwaves from Jaya’s punch caused the surrounding wind to rile up forming a small-scale tornado that reached the onlookers causing them to instinctively close their eyes and take a defensive stance. A sinister grin formed on Jaya’s face covered in blood and gore but before she could celebrate her victory, she realized that she could not smell blood from the blood that showered on her as Gloria’s body burst. Having raided dungeons and fought in her share of life and dead battles Jaya’s superhuman senses were aware of how blood smelled and the blood and gore covering her did not have that smell. Learning this Jaya instantly grew alert and suddenly felt her cape flutter even though there was no wind in the air. Before Jaya could deduce what it signified, it was too late, a cold blade pierced her back breaking the defense of her body suit and her superhuman viltronian defense that was near-invulnerable to attack of the same realm and below. Being attacked Jaya intuitively punched in the direction of the assailant but her reaction was late, having stabbed her twice in a row her assailant escaped reading the subtle changes in Jaya’s body movements. Blood spurt uncontrollably from Jaya’s wounds, dying Jaya’s silver body suit red. Noticing that the blood would not stop flowing out, Jaya felt that the assailant’s weapon had a bleeding effect.

“Woah! That was close. Good thing I did not underestimate you,” Gloria’s figure appeared 200 meters from Jaya and commented. Seeing that Gloria was fine, Jaya understood that the Gloria she saw die was a clone or illusion of sorts. Gauging that her opponent possessed an item that could not only break her defense but had a bleeding effect and possessed a clone or illusion skill, Jaya no longer dared to be defensive. Mobilizing her fast speed she rushed at Gloria and punched with all her might. This time on impact, Gloria dispersed and Jaya groaned in pain as a cold blade pierced her back. Jaya tried to attack in the direction from where the attack came but once again Gloria was long gone having read the subtle cues of Jaya’s body movements. “Fuck!” Jaya screamed at the top of her lungs in frustration. However, in her mind, she noted that every time Gloria attacked, her cape would flutter in the direction the attack came from by reading even the small changes in the air warning her of Gloria’s attack. Realizing this maintaining an irritated and annoyed appearance on the outside Jaya calmed her mind and stood in one place waiting for Gloria to make her next move. This time instead of trusting her sight she planned to follow the signals of her bodysuit’s cape as it seemed to be able to read the movement of air and warn her of incoming attacks that were not visible to her eyes. However, Jaya’s plan was easier said than done. She has been relying on her five senses from birth yet it took her lots of training to use them in real combat, so for her to adapt the warning signals of her cape to her combat style would not be easy considering that she would have to read the movement of her cape to deduce the direction of the incoming attack. Just as Jaya was dwelling on how to use her cape’s warning signals to her advantage, her cape warned her of an incoming attack. Being warned, instead of trying to defend or confront Gloria, Jaya retreated to safety as she still had to figure out how to deduce the movements of her cape to read the direction of the incoming attacks.
