70 Self-Confident

Emma put her hands together and clenched them into a big fist, then hit Gozu’s head with all her might. It made the man feel dizzy for a moment. At that moment, Emma immediately let go of her legs and jumped down. Emma quickly ran back upstairs, to see how Roger and Poppy were doing.

But when she got to the fifth floor, she found that the floor was empty and quiet with lots of spots and traces of blood all over the floor. But there was one thing that made her smile happily. Donny was lying on his stomach on the floor.

“Good job, Roger! You did it!” Emma muttered with a big smile.

CRACK!! BUGH!!

There was a noise from downstairs, which was certain to be the voice of Gozu doing unknown things. Emma then turned to the stairs leading to the top floor, which was her final destination. The location where the server units were stored.

***

Poppy’s eyes trembled when she saw the figure of the man she had hurt so badly, was now risking his life ‘Again’ for her.

Poppy didn’t want Roger to suffer anymore because of her. She thought.. in this world, there was no way any person could maintain their love so firmly, even though they had been hurt so badly. But as it turned out, that person was Roger Timothy. The guy who had been Poppy realized had always been watching over her from afar.

“Nooo!! Stop it, Donny! Please stop it!” Poppy shouted as the big guy slammed Roger back on the floor for the umpteenth time.

.....

Roger loudly writhed in pain. He coughed again as he vomited blood from his mouth.

“Donny.. I beg you to stop this. I-I promise I will do whatever you ask. But, please don’t hurt Roger anymore. I beg of you!” Poppy cried.

“No..” Roger coughed as he tried to get up slowly, “Poppy won’t do anything for you anymore. You.. won’t be able to control her anymore,”

Donny chuckled mockingly, but his breath hitched. He wiped the side of his lips that were bleeding after being hit by Roger’s fist. He never expected Roger to be strong enough to overwhelm him.

“Roger.. Stop it.. You won’t get anything for this..” Poppy coaxed. But her words were ignored by the sky-blue iris guy.

“You.. call yourself a man. But in truth, you are lower than animals. Because, there’s no way a real man dares to destroy a woman’s life.” Roger said by raising his two fists again in front of his battered face which he still had the strength to endure.

Donny laughed loudly, “Even love makes you willing to be killed just for the girl who had betrayed you. You are the stupidest guy I have ever met.”

“You underestimate love because you never feel it!” Roger replied, “And you never will!” he continued by throwing his fist.

Donny immediately dodged, then he replied by punching Roger’s solar plexus with full force, because his anger was provoked, “You won’t be able to protect Poppy because you are a loser!”

“Ughhh!” Roger automatically bent down with blood dripping out from his mouth onto the floor. He immediately fell to his knees in front of Donny, curled up as clutching his stomach. But with the rest of his strength, he still grabbed the man’s leg and gripped him. He tried to push Donny’s body back, but unfortunately, he was too weak to overthrow him.

“You two are a pair of losers. Whether you exist or not, I’ll still make this bitch my cash cow.” Donny said while glancing down at Roger who was hugging his legs. Then, he kicked Roger so that he bounced and his back hit the wall. Then, he raised his right leg in front of Roger who was seating limply And..

BUGHHH!!

Donny fell forward, slamming into Roger’s legs.

Behind him, Poppy stood with Roger’s metal baseball bat which had been thrown off when the guy fought him earlier.

“I’m not your dairy cow! You son of a bitch!” Poppy screamed in tears. Then, she dropped the bat carelessly before approaching Roger. She helped Roger roll Donny’s very heavy body to the side.

Roger smiled as he saw Poppy’s sweet face which also stared at him guiltily, “Thanks for helping this loser, Poppy. I’m sorry that I couldn’t keep my promise to not be five steps away from you.”

Poppy shook her head, “I’m sorry, Roger. I did you wrong all this time. I’m really sorry.” she said with tears in her eyes.

“You know, I’ve forgiven you for a long time ago and always love you until this moment. I’m sorry that I can’t erase this feeling.” Roger replied.

Poppy nodded solemnly. She didn’t answer him anymore. It made Roger understand that it was true that Poppy’s feelings weren’t as great as his. But Roger never expected that either.

Because, true love doesn’t always expect a return. Just being able to see the person he loves lives happily is enough.

“Thank you for never forgetting me,” Roger said, referring to Donny’s information that Poppy still had their childhood photo in her wallet. Even though she didn’t love him, at least he still had a little place in her memory.

Roger struggled to his feet, and Poppy immediately helped him, “We have to go upstairs to destroy the server.” Roger explained.

“What’s on that server, Roger?” Poppy asked as she carried one of Roger’s arms around her shoulder.

“The server that stores the data related to the website and its applications. In essence, without the server, the website will not be able to run properly.” Roger explained as short as possible. He didn’t really know much about computer engineering either. But he knew that the way to destroy the catlanguagedictionary website was to destroy the central server units.

The two of them arrived at the empty sixth floor that had several large pots of ornamental plants placed on each corner of the wall and two large windows in the middle. On that floor, there was a room with a door made of iron.

“That’s the room. There should be a guard here. But it looks like he was joining the fighting downstairs.” said Roger.

Poppy nodded before quickening her step so they could soon stop the source of her life’s misery. Poppy couldn’t wait to destroy a business that had ruined so many lives of girls like her, because Poppy knew she wasn’t the only one who was framed to be an actress on that damn website.

“I already knew Donny would be hurt by women. Well.. it wasn’t his heart that would get hurt, but he underestimates women too much to think they can’t do anything to him.” Kei’s voice immediately made Roger and Poppy turn around in surprise.

Kei Matsumoto smiled broadly with both his hands tucked into his trouser pockets, “I didn’t think you would make such a big mess at my place. But you should thank me for giving the three of you time to exchange feelings.”

Roger tightened his grip on his baseball bat. He didn’t know whether Kei was good at fighting or not. As the information from the man back then, no one had ever seen Kei fight. But even so, Roger’s current position was already badly injured to be able to fight even an ordinary person.

Roger stepped back as Kei casually walked around them.

“Do you know how much loss I have suffered as a result of your actions? How are you responding to this all?” Asked Kei.

“Don’t be kidding me! You’ve committed acts of forced labour and abuse on many women. We have evidence to charge you!” Roger answered.

Kei smirked cutely, “You talk like a superior. I want to see if your angel’s plan will work or not.”

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

They turned to the noise coming from the stairs. The figure of a man dressed in all black with a black helmet ran up to the top.

“Roger!” The robot voice sounded strange. It might have been a bit damaged after the battle after battle he’d been through.

“Em..” Roger took a breath and closed his mouth. He almost slipped out the girl’s name.

Emma looked at Kei who was standing a few steps near Roger and Poppy. She didn’t want to waste any more time. Behind, Gozu was chasing after her. Perhaps the huge man would soon make it to the top.

Emma immediately ran to Kei and did a Jump Turning Kick Reverse by aiming at his head, considering Kei’s very tall body.

But Emma immediately darted into the wall because Kei quickly dodged to the side. Emma even caught a glimpse of the man’s mocking smile as she shot past his face.

“Ugh! D-dammit..” Emma groaned in pain. Even though her attack was already quite fast, somehow Kei was able to avoid it easily. This was what happened when she acted rashly.

When Emma missed earlier, she had time to glance at how Kei avoided her kick. Kei only moved a little, but his foot swept across the floor in a 90-degree motion, which was one of the leg movements in Kung Fu. That was enough to make Emma suspect that Kei wasn’t really couldn’t fight. He just didn’t want to.

Roger and Poppy rushed to help Emma.

“Are you okay?” asked Roger worriedly.

Emma shook her head, “I’m fine. Don’t underestimate that guy. He can fight.” she said while glancing at Kei who was standing, laughing at her.

Then a loud noise was heard again. It was Gozu who had arrived with a face full of murderous intent, “Where are you, son of a bitch?!”

“He.. he hasn’t lost yet?” Poppy muttered with a horrified look.

Emma shook her head, “He’s so strong. I was having a hard time defeating him.”

“What should we do? We’re surrounded,” Poppy said frantically.

“No worries. I will protect you,” Emma said as she stood up.

“I’ll take care of Kei,” Said Roger.

Emma turned to him with a furrowed brow, “With that condition of yours?”

Roger chuckled, “Shouldn’t I trust myself?”

Roger’s answer made Emma smile. Instantly, her power seemed to be refilled. Then, she nodded and slapped her right fist against her left palm, “You’re right! We will be the winner!”
