“The one Iron rule in this hall is that men and women should only touch each other during dancing,” Brago said with confidence and charisma. “Such a rule is established because we want all the students to focus only on the dance. Nothing else. But here you are…” he cast a dismissive glance at Kevin, “holding an innocent lady’s hand, luring her into a trap she’s not aware that she had already fallen. How devious and conniving!”Brago kept raising his voice, and he believed that he successfully diverted the attention from his loss to Kevin’s questionable character.He believed that he had dug a grave for Kevin, not knowing that he’d end up falling in that grave soon.Kevin let go of Cecilia’s hand and said, “I’m sorry.”Cecilia was surprised by Kevin’s action. She was also almost amused by it.“You think a mere apology is enough?” Brago roared. “You need to touch her feet and beg for her mercy!”“Not a problem,” Kevin got down on his knees.Cecilia took a step back. (Is he really doing

Just after the music started, the most slender student stepped forward and pirouetted like crazy, wowing the crowd.Brago grinned. “Even I can’t spin that fast and with such control,” he thought. “There’s no way one can spin like that and maintain balance unless they have done it time and again. He’s going to fail for sure.”Kevin closed his eyes and pirouetted with his arms and chest forming a perfect square.The student who was doing the spinning stopped midway and couldn’t believe how gracefully and effortlessly Kevin was doing.Kevin’s speed and control was on another level.Not wanting to lose, he leaped forward doing a spinning kick and a pirouette at the same time—a move that should have been illegal against both physics and the human spine.He screamed like a hyena, “HUYYAAA!”Kevin simply moved to the side while pirouetting, and his elbow struck the guy who ended up face-planting into a speaker.“You got enthusiasm,” Kevin stopped spinning, “but no accuracy.”The crowd went O

At the FlavorNest company.Brielle was in her office, and her assistant once again entered the room and showed a particular video on the mobile screen.This showed Kevin and Cecilia dancing together.“This video was released only 28 minutes ago, ma’am,” the assistant said, “and it’s going viral.”Brielle just didn’t know how to react.She had sent Cecilia to the dance hall with the intent of letting her get in touch with other males.She was even planning to leak this information to James so he could probably join the dance community as well.She expected her idea to work well and eventually cause her daughter to forget about Kevin and move on.But now, the video playing before her showed the exact opposite thing.“H-How many views did it get?” she hesitantly asked.“It already crossed 100,000, ma’am. Not a single person disliked the video. I think this is an online record.”Brielle frowned. “What about the comments?”“They are all overwhelmingly positive,” the assistant nervously sta

The tall tree breathed its shadow over Cecilia and many smaller beings whom she was noticing.Cecilia was observing the ants that were taking cut-leaves in a line.“Why are they taking the leaves?” she wondered.The footsteps of the street performers caught her attention. There were four of them, their dresses not pretty and their expressions even more unnatural.If there were other people around, Cecilia might not have felt insecure, but right now, she was alone, so her instincts kicked in.She got up and was walking away.They quickened their pace. “We’re here to perform. Your husband sent us.”“Oh…” Cecilia was relieved to hear that. “I was worried for nothing.”“What kind of performance do you want, miss?” they asked.“I’m not really interested right now, so you can go,” she replied.“Don’t talk like that,” one of them stepped forward, taking out what looked like a spray bottle. “We didn’t come here to leave empty-handed.”He pressed the spray button.It was supposed to strike Cec

Cecilia couldn’t clearly see what was going on, but she could hear everything.And when she saw the assassin, he looked like a ghost in black because of his white mask and black cloak.He sprinted effortlessly as though the wind carried him.“Kevin! He’s behind you1” Cecilia cried.Kevin frowned because he had to fight three opponents while carrying her on his shoulder.He took a deep breath and steadied his gaze and breathing almost immediately by letting out a deeper breath through the mouth.He jumped back at once.In doing so, he dodged the assassin’s blade which sliced through the air where Kevin’s ribs had been a second earlier.He swiveled once more and dodged the second knife that grazed past his shoulder.He caught the wrist of the second assassin that came from behind and used him to stab the first guy.The third one came silently like a man carved with quiet violence. He wanted to take sadistic pleasure in hurting Kevin from his blindspot.Kevin jumped and reverse flipped t
