Is My Life Ordinary? - Chapter 156

I stopped for a moment, as he gashed for air, I kicked him in between the legs.

And- that was the cruelest thing I did to him. He experienced it throughout the body, as his body was trembling. As his both hands were not at ‘that’ region I again punched him in the face, his head came into contact with the corner of the sofa and fortunately it wasn’t something severe.

But I wasn’t done yet.

“Hey, stand up. Don’t tell this enough?” I slapped his face a couple of times.

He groaned a bit, I took a few steps behind. It took him a hoel minute to get on his feet but still seems like some lingering pain was in his ‘that’ region.

“AARRGGHHH!”

Just like last time, except with a shout, he came at me.

Unlike last time, he threw the lamp at the end of the sofa at me, I instantly held my arms up. But that wasn’t a good decision on my part. Or I would have said, the lamp was a distraction. His aim was my  leg. How do I know this? Because if he were to use his arms, the lamp would hinder his arm movement. THe last option is the legs, and before the throw of the lamp, he took a small glimpse on my right lower part. And hence, the attack is on the right leg.

“Grab him!” He shouted.

Of course, the ones lying on the ground held on my right leg and forced me to bend down. Before the lamp could touch me or get anywhere near me, I was on the ground. The lamp went crashing at the other end of the room. As I was forced to sit down, I was in Henry’s attack area. The leg he was aiming at, was right at my face.

Did he plan this?

In response to the ambush, I pulled up my arm against the kick. I got a bit of a pain and numbness but it wasn’t the time to feel it. I instantly tried to release my caught up arm but it seemed like it wasn’t as easy as I had spectaculated.

But I still had to do something, as I looked around while Henry’s another kick came at me, I noticed the shattered particles by the lamp, a few of them were lying behind me.

I wished to cause any bloodshed but I guess at this point it cannot be evaded.

I took a piece of it, and threw it at the arm holding me down. With my dominant hand, I was able to block Henry’s attack but I don’t think I can take it for much longer. With the previous blocks, my arm is getting numb as time passes by.

With the other hand, I sent that broken piece at that hand, It hit right in between the fingers. As I tried to forcibly release my leg, his grip tightened and the piece pierced him a bit. With the sudden pinch and occurrence of blood, he instantly let go enabling me to escape.

With sudden unexpected development, Henry took a step back and stood there, glaring at me.

“You-You bastard! You came here knowing you could handle us?” He remonstrated.

“Well I came here knowing I would end up in a situation like this sooner or later based on your previous behavior.” I said.

“Huh? What are you saying?”

Of course he would be confused by it.

“Let me say it that way you can also understand. I knew you would resort to violence at the end of the day, it was only a matter of time.”

“So you expected things to turn this way…?” He was bewildered but tried not to show it’s emotions… yet.

“In other words, you have been moving along my fingertips and not the other way around.”

“Kekeke… so you came here knowing you would be able to suppress all of us?” he asked.

“Probably.” I vaguely answered.

Based on the information Iris gave me, it clearly stated he has a short temper. And along with an abnormal strength, so the only use of him could be of a war dog. After knowing the consequences of this fight, he nevertheless continued it. All brawn with now brains is what I would like to call him.

Scapegoat would have also been a good term for him but that’s not for me to decide. Nor do I have the time.

While the anger and frustration grew larger in the room, the other two who were supposed to be on the ground seemed to have stood up. But not entirely, partially bent up and a curled up cheeks indicating the pain.

The safest and the only thing I have is this wall behind me. I won’t have to worry about getting punched/kicked from the back. Now what should I do with them?

Even they are getting impatient, since their eyes’ have started to lose it’s focus while gasping for air. Should I charge while they are down? Or do I wait for them to charge? Either way, I can’t entirely predict the outcome.

ALright, it’s decided.

With the shattered pieces of broken lamp scattered on the ground, I shoved them towards them, in defense their aim changed to those pieces. I grabbed the opportunity and charged at them. Ignoring Henry, I went for the weak ones. It’s better to deal with them before I get surrounded. With their guard up, I landed a kick at the lower part of one. While he wasn’t even able to stand normally, I made him even more vulnerable. Before he could react to my sudden attack, I smashed his face with my fist. That must have knocked him up, if not at least he must have experienced pain. One down two to go.

While the other tried to charge at me, I turned around and that surprised him, since no enemy is supposed to show his backa the face of an enemy. But it was all my strategy, unlike the last time, I was waiting for Henry.

He got the better of me last time, but not this time. I Noticed him charging at me. That’s right I saw him. It was enough for me to pulverize him. As his knees bent, I placed pressure on it, although it wasn’t powerful enough to stop him, it was strong enough to hinder his movement for a moment. And it was enough for me to take on the other enemy.

Noticing Henry stop, the other person became agitated and charged at me blindly, full of openings. I just had to slap him once, that stopped him, another was the punch he intended to tlan at me, but it was too slow. I blocked it one and placed my fist on his gut. He stopped completely, and held his stomach with a painful expression on his face.

But that wasn’t the end of it, this time be my shield.

I grabbed his hair and pulled it towards me, he screeched in pain. I noticed Henry would be approaching me any second, I threw the person at him, although he was surprised by the sight of it, he still threw his fellow person as a piece of tin can. I could clearly see his frustration now, I mean at this point he is using force rather than being decisive like before.

Slowly but gradually his punches started to slow down, it wasn’t noticeable but the gaps between his rock hard fist and my skin started to widen up. He is getting tired.

Alright then.

With his strength diminished, I punched him in the face, the most vulnerable place. His head got struck hard, as it was a perfect hit, it took him not more than a second to face me again.. But he may be trying to act hard, but I could see his nose bleeding, while the scratch I made earlier also hasn’t stopped. A line of blood had formed.

He wasn’t realizing it, but at this point I was not even trying to avoid his attacks, his aim was starting to lose it’s touch. But the frustration has taken over his senses.

I punched him again at the same spot. And again. And again.

I punched till he was on his knees, face turned red with blood and partially with swollen glands. Right eye turned slightly blue, while a tooth lingering to it’s gums and eye that has lost its focus entirely. Arms hanging just above the ground, not an ounce of strength remained on him.

As a precaution and a confirmation, I left Henry right there and took a look at the other bodies on the ground as they groaned in pain. They both seemed to be okay once they received some medical attention but I can’t say the same for Henry. His condition is far worse than the rest. I might have gotten too much at him.

“Should we consider it as your defeat?”

“?!”

With that line, I don’t know how but he seemed to have gotten angry and tried to mumble something, but with his lower jaw hanging off he wasn’t able to say it clearly.

“Oh really?”
