The woman had a gentle smile on her face even as Lily freaked out and was on edge.
Lily held Moku under one arm while she held out her other hand in an awkward karate chop pose.
"Careful Lady. You don't wanna mess with me! I know like 47 different martial arts!"
That was technically the truth. She did know of that many martial arts but whether she was actually proficient in them was an entirely different question....the answer was a resounding hellNO!
She would struggle to wrestle her way out of a wet paper bag, let alone beat anyone in a fist fight.
The woman wasn't fazed by Lily's bravado as she continued to smile warmly at her.
"Now now. There's no need for you to act this way child. I have no intention of harming you~"
Lily wasn't buying it as she waved her arm around wildly in an attempt to act tough.
"You know who else says that? Smart monsters before they try to eat your spleens when you get too close! I am not gonna fall for that!"
