Chapter 563: A Competitor? Hahaha, What a Joke.
Upon hearing such things, Minos looked at Cole as if he saw a worm struggling in front of him, trying to make statements about something that was none of his business.
“Challenge me? Who do you think you are?” Minos said as he hugged the waists of those two women beside him. “Do you think I need to prove myself to anyone? If you think that, then you are just a pathetic worm.”
“What did you say?” Cole said in disbelief as he turned redder and redder.
It had never crossed this young man’s mind that Minos would just refuse the challenge. After all, such a person should have honor, right?
So, the logical thing to do in this situation was for the offended person to try to prove himself by accepting the challenge. And by doing so, he would have his chance to remove this competitor from Abby’s side…
Minos then spoke again. “The only person who has to think something concerning me is Abby. As for the rest, that is not for them to say or think anything, that is none of your business, and we don’t give a damn about your opinions.”
“That matter is solely up to her and me!”
After Minos said those words, many people near where they were standing were already watching this with expressions of surprise and satisfaction.
After the shouts Cole had given earlier, many had paid attention to that place. Of course, they were already expecting to see a mess. But surprisingly, Minos had given such a response, which, although it lessened the chances of the ‘awaited’ challenge happening, was a way of handling it that was well respected by many there.
Not that it was a completely new approach for these people, far from it. Everyone knew that these intimate matters were the concern only of those involved. But it was extremely normal for some men to handle such issues in a, shall we say, less experienced, childish way.
Many men would be very easily offended after hearing the comments of someone like Cole and would try to prove themselves somehow, sometimes getting into the opponent’s mind game.
On the other hand, since many men in this world had rather macho thoughts, as was the case with Cole, this kind of situation was even more difficult not to happen.
After all, this could irritate the opposing side, or the offended person could have similar sexist thoughts as Cole. And that would only intensify a probable fight between the parties.
Some people in this world thought that they could settle matters like this through a battle or something.
It was almost as if the challenger didn’t care about the woman’s free will, as if, suppose he was better than the offended person, she would have to stay with him…
Precisely because of disturbing thoughts like these, a fight could break out very quickly if both parties thought alike.
But unfortunately for Cole, Minos did not think that way, and the vast majority of women in the Spiritual World despised men who thought in such a manner.
Consequently, Cole had just earned even more contempt from Abby and some women in the vicinity of that place. In contrast, Minos had refused such a duel without a second thought.
And with the brief silence, after Minos said those last words, several people in that place were already laughing at the situation and watching the embarrassed Cole.
‘This guy is truly pathetic…’ A woman who was watching everything thought to herself as she looked in the direction of Cole with a look of disgust on her face. ‘Even if you were to defeat him, do you think that girl would stop loving her boyfriend just because of that?’
‘If such a thing happened, then you would be doing him a favor by getting him out of trouble in the future. After all, a woman who would do such a thing can only be a selfish person, and sooner or later she would do something even worse to him…’
‘Anyway, you’re a retard!‘ The same woman smiled just before she turned and left that place.
At the same time as that, Cole closed his fists tightly as he felt his head boil in hatred for Minos. “You miserable bastard, are you afraid of competition?”
“You can’t even guarantee yourself against an opponent of a lower level than yours?”
“A competitor? Hahaha, what a joke. I have no competitors, nor do I have time to waste with people of your level.” Minos smiled as he looked first into Abby’s eyes and then into Ruth’s. “I will not lower myself and accept a ridiculous challenge like that.”
“Now you can go away, boy. Do me a favor, never appearing in front of me again!”
“Son of a bitch!” Cole shouted furiously, just before finally jumping toward Minos, already giving a signal to his bodyguard to back him up.
“Die!”
‘Oh? I’d better knock you out for a few days so that this kind of idiocy doesn’t come back to me in those days I’ll be here.’ So Minos thought to himself before finally making his move.
Vuup!
Suddenly the young Stuart moved from where he was with his two beautiful girlfriends, running swiftly to a place behind Cole and his bodyguard.
‘Uh? Where did he go?’ Cole wondered for a moment, just before he felt a pressure on his shoulder, and his vision quickly darkened. ‘I’m fainting…’
Puff!
Immediately after Minos’ first move, Cole’s unconscious body fell onto one of the chairs in that place.
“Young master!” Seeing this right next to him, Cole’s bodyguard loudly shouted as he began to worry more and more about his boss’ situation. “Lunatic! That’s the son of…”
He was about to say something when suddenly he felt something very similar to what Cole had just experienced. A sudden pressure on his left shoulder, accompanied by his consciousness falling into a darkness’ sea.
Minos’ left hand had struck a sharp blow to an essential part of their bodies and caused them to lose consciousness almost immediately!
Puff!
After the two fainted, Minos gave a few blows to the unconscious bodies of those two, just to make sure they would sleep long enough…
He would not allow his business to be harmed by someone as pathetic as that young man. As such, he had not bothered to act decisively against those two, even if they could not defend themselves.
But this had left no visible marks that would make the people in that place realize what had happened. On the contrary, when the bodies of the two had fallen on the chairs in that part of the bleachers, only Ruth had been able to see everything that had happened.
For the rest of the people there, all they had seen was the young Stuart disappear briefly and then attack the shoulders of those two men. After that, two unconscious bodies fell.
“What happened? Did you see something?” One of the people in the vicinity there asked in doubt to the person standing at his side.
“I didn’t see anything…”
“Hehe, that idiot fucked himself!”
“The crazy Cole still wanted to challenge this person… Haha, how ignorant!”
On the other hand, while those people talked about what had happened there, Minos looked at his two girlfriends and then smiled at them. “Come on. There’s nothing else for us to do in this place.”
“Hmm.” The two immediately agreed.
And just then, two unconscious people were left in that place as the trio walked down the stairs of that bleachers.
At the same time as that, someone in that part of the bleachers asked loudly. “Hey, are these guys going to be okay? Shouldn’t we check their condition?”
“Ahh, let’s leave them there a while longer. That man is a nobleman. If he’s only pretending to be passed out so as not to be humiliated even more, then if we try to help him, it will only bring us trouble…” Another person said.
“True… Let’s leave him alone.”
…
After coming down the stairs from that bleachers, Minos and his two girlfriends talked about that subject.
“Hey, Abby, does this kind of thing often happen to you?” Ruth asked as she looked over to that young woman’s side.
“Hmm, sort of. Ever since I came of age, there’s always been one person or another trying to court me.”
“But no one has ever said anything as exaggerated as that person said… I think because it was the first time one of those people had ever seen me with a man, he lost his calm.” Abby replied sincerely.
That was normal for a beautiful young woman like her, who, besides her beauty, also had great talent and wealth!
That made many men look favorably upon her and try to win her favor. And as much as she had always refused such things, this only made her even more desirable to some of these people.
So, she and other young women in her position had to deal with these types of people approaching them with a certain constancy.
“I understand…” Ruth commented in a low voice as she realized that the differences between the empire and this place were not so different after all…
