Fleur also felt somewhat worried at this moment as she muttered to herself, “Mr. Chardon’s strength is already remarkable, and he’s already even more powerful with the magical instrument I gave him. If he really sacrificed himself in the explosion, then the person who forced him to do so must be much stronger than him.”

As she spoke, Fleur couldn't help but exclaim, “I never expected that there would be such a skilled master in Aurous Hill. Based on my understanding of the Ackers, they couldn't possibly have any contact with someone this powerful. So, who exactly is this person?”

Tarlon couldn't help but say, “British Lord, I believe that person should be acquainted with the Ackers. Otherwise, why would he save them at the critical moment?”

Fleur shook her head with a gloomy expression and said, “I don't know either. If Mr. Chardon really perished in the explosion, his opponent must be a cultivator with even greater strength. However, I've had people secretly monitoring the Ackers f

    In a normal fight, Aurora would always choose the most strategic reaction if she noticed an opponent attacking her chest.If the punch wouldn't hurt and she could punch back harder on the counter, she wouldn't go out of her way to defend herself. They were all women, anyway, so it was just all fair game—or downright strategic to go for the delicate parts on occasion.But today was clearly different.No matter how much Heidi claimed to be transgender and asserted to have always considered herself a woman, she was a man in Aurora's mind, through and through. So, when Heidi reached out, looking like she was going to cop a feel, Aurora suddenly forgot that she was in a fight. Her inner maiden, reserved and proud, sprang forth, and she instinctively tried to shield her breasts like she would from a pervert.However, it didn't matter to Heidi. Even though Aurora had managed to protect her chest, her entire face was completely exposed, just as she expected.She knew it was impossible f

    Heidi was caught off balance. While this was her first time competing in the women's category, she had researched the other seeded rivals before the actual event.That was especially the case for Aurora, who was the top seed.However, she still cruised to the finals, as the overall strength of the women's fighters was undoubtedly a class beneath that of the men's. That was why she had grown to underestimate even Aurora.Naturally, she had also cross-referenced gender disparity across other events, such as the 100-meter track and field. In that category, the best men's records were under ten seconds, while the top women's record was between ten and eleven seconds. Heidi thought to herself then that she was in the 10.5-second range—while she might not make the finals in the men's division, winning the women's division would be easy.Never could she have expected that Aurora would immediately put her on the back foot, and all her usual skills and strategies proved ineffective. She

    Heidi's aggression drew further jeers, but she clearly had mental fortitude in spades, and the crowd wasn't getting to her, no matter how loud they got.At the same time, Bojo groaned beside Charlie. "I mean, this ain't discrimination or anything, but couldn't they just make another new category if necessary? Let people of the same weight class compete fairly—that's just how it always goes from the very beginning."You can decide who you are, but it's just fair for you to fight your own kind in your own weight class. I mean, isn't sports all about pursuing fairness? It's like I sprained my foot, and suddenly I'm qualified to join in the Paralympics 100-meter dash. "Other Paralympians have to overcome their disability to be able to compete for the honor, yet now, they're suddenly competing against me, who's otherwise a fit, healthy man aside from my sprain. Why would any other healthy athlete even bother to train at that point? Just join the Paralympics and take all the prize money

    While Charlie was confused about what a man was doing competing in a woman's weight class, many others around him were already jeering.Nudging the man beside him, he said, "Hey, is there something I should know about that fighter?"The man, Bojo, shrugged. "Well, she claims to be a woman trapped in a man's body ever since she was a child. Even said she's taking anti-androgens and all that, all while taking part in various women's category matches. On top of that, she insisted that she's going to have gender-affirmation surgery later, too."Charlie nodded, a little stumped. "But technically speaking, she is physically a man?""Exactly!" Bojo huffed indignantly. "It's really a little too much, letting her take part in a sports event where physicality holds a defining advantage.""Well, in that case, how did she get the official panel's approval to compete?" Charlie asked, puzzled.Bojo sighed. "Because sporting committees these days are as corrupt as FIFA back in the day. Pay enou

    Charlie then noticed the name of Aurora's opponent on the screen: Heidi Swain.While he didn't know much about Heidi, he knew that Aurora's abilities had been improving.Not only did she have the pills he had given her to improve her musculature and meridians, but the martial arts he had taught her also significantly improved her combat prowess. He was therefore quite sure she would win the night.At 6.50 pm, the host stepped up into the ring to announce the opening, and the stands quickly heated up in response.The first match featured two female players, equally matched.It was close—each lady won a round, and the third round was a dramatic showdown.The crowd was whistling, applauding thunderously, and roaring in delight at the show they were given. It was a split-second but decisive moment when one of the ladies abruptly launched a flurry of jabs that disrupted her opponent's rhythm, resulting in a decisive point that won her the match. The audience was clearly surprise

    The next day, Charlie, Claire, and Loreen boarded their flight to Tokyo.During the flight, both women were excitedly talking about shopping at Ginza and the Omote-Sando Avenue. To be precise, Claire wasn't all that thrilled about going shopping, but Elaine had asked her specifically to get her some local jewelry, so Claire had no choice but to agree.She was always fair, so buying stuff for her mother meant the same for her father, too. So, she told Loreen that she had a budget of three hundred thousand for gifts for both parents. Loreen promptly volunteered to help, and so they planned to go shopping right after checking in their luggage at the hotel.Loreen then asked Charlie, "Are you joining us?""For the afternoon, sure," Charlie replied. "But there's an MMA match tonight I'd like to watch. We can go together if you ladies are interested, though I can still go alone if you're not… And in that case, I won't be joining for dinner.""MMA?" Loreen groaned. "Spare me. I can't s
