As Beatrice walked out of the internet cafe, she couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. The look on Ethan's face when she had effortlessly defeated him was priceless. She knew it wouldn't be long before word of her gaming prowess spread throughout the city.
But as she stepped out into the bustling streets, her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a commotion nearby. Curious, she followed the noise to a crowded alleyway, where she found a group of thugs harassing a young woman.
"Hey, sweetheart," one of the thugs leered, grabbing the woman's arm.
"Why don't you come with us and have some fun?"
Bang.
"Mmm killing isn't allowed but I never heard beating up people," she said as she picked up a bat and patted it with her hand.
The thugs stared at Beatrice, their eyes widening in a mix of fear and awe. They had never seen a woman so beautiful, yet so intimidating. The young woman she had come to rescue looked at Beatrice with gratitude, her eyes shining with tears.
"What's it gonna be, boys?" Beatrice asked, twirling the bat in her hands.
"You gonna let the lady go, or do I need to teach you a lesson?"
The thugs exchanged nervous glances, unsure of how to respond. They had never encountered someone like Beatrice before, someone who exuded an aura of power and danger.
Suddenly, one of the thugs stepped forward, his face contorted with rage.
"You think you're tough, lady? Let's see how you handle this!"
He lunged at Beatrice, swinging a knife at her face. But Beatrice was too quick. She dodged the attack with ease, then brought the bat down on the thug's arm with a sickening crack. He screamed in pain, dropping the knife to the ground.
The other thugs hesitated, unsure of what to do. They had underestimated Beatrice, and now they were paying the price.
"Anyone else want to try their luck?"
"Attack the bitch together!" The leader shouted. Beatrice crushed her lollipop when her companion Cutie is here he always calms her temper but he isn't here her temper is really not good. She jumped in the air and swing the bat as she hit the person on the head, another person came as her this person was a martial arts and has a small amount of spiritual engery. Beatrice turned her head and she grinned. This is more fun than she thought!
The martial artist faced Beatrice, his eyes narrowed in concentration. He could sense the power radiating from her, a force that went beyond mere physical strength. With a deep breath, he launched himself at her, his fists flying through the air in a blur of motion.
But Beatrice was undeterred. She met his attacks with her bat, the weapon deflecting his blows with ease. The two exchanged a flurry of strikes, their movements graceful yet brutal. The onlookers watched in awe, their eyes wide with disbelief.
Suddenly, Beatrice spotted an opening in the martial artist's defenses. With a swift motion, she swung the bat, catching him off guard. He stumbled back, his eyes wide with surprise.
"That all you got?" Beatrice taunted, a wicked grin spreading across her face. The martial artist growled, his pride wounded. He charged at her again, his spiritual energy flaring around him.
But Beatrice was ready. She dodged his attack and countered with a powerful swing of her bat, sending him crashing to the ground. The other thugs watched in disbelief, their courage shattered by the sight of their leader defeated.
"Anyone else?" Beatrice asked, her voice cold and deadly.
The woman stepped forward, her eyes shining with admiration.
"That was amazing!" she exclaimed.
"I've never seen anyone fight like that before. You're incredible!"
Beatrice blinked, surprised by the woman's sudden praise. She wasn't used to being complimented, especially not by strangers. A faint blush crept onto her cheeks, and she looked away, trying to hide her embarrassment.
"Uh, thanks," she muttered, shifting awkwardly.
"It was nothing, really."
But the woman wouldn't let her off that easily. She grabbed Beatrice's hand, her grip firm and enthusiastic.
"No, seriously! You're my hero! I'm Lily, by the way."
Beatrice hesitated for a moment, then smiled back at Lily.
"I'm Beatrice. Nice to meet you."
As the two women talked, the thugs slunk away, their tails between their legs. They knew better than to mess with someone like Beatrice again. And so, an unlikely friendship was born, forged in the heat of battle and the adrenaline of a close call.
Lily did not let go Beatrice hand oh she wished this woman to be her sister in law. Lily waved bye to Beatrice after giving her contract information. She also paid her 1,000 pounds. Beatrice went to a hotel and got a cheap room.
As the Heavenly Celestial Emperor drifted into a deep slumber, the mortal realm continued to spin on its axis, oblivious to the divine being's absence. Beatrice, unaware of the celestial happenings, settled into her cheap hotel room, the events of the day catching up to her.
She collapsed onto the bed, her body aching from the fight. But despite the pain, a smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. It had been a while since she'd felt so alive, so free. The thrill of the battle, the adrenaline coursing through her veins, it was intoxicating.
As she lay there, her thoughts drifted to Lily. The woman's admiration had caught her off guard, stirring something within her that she hadn't felt in a long time.

Lily Apollo was a third miss in the Apollo Family Clan. She came to York for a summer vacation before school starts but she couldn't believe she meant someone so cool! She called her older sister who is a famous singer and married.
"Sis you won't believe it she was so cool awesome!"
Lily's older sister, Sophia, listened to Lily's excited chatter with a mixture of amusement and concern. She had always worried about her younger sister's tendency to get carried away by first impressions.
"Slow down, Lily," Sophia said gently.
"You just met this person. How do you know she's really as cool as you think?"
Lily rolled her eyes, her excitement momentarily dampened by her sister's caution.
"Sophia, you should have seen her! She fought off a group of thugs with just a bat. And she was so calm, so confident. I've never seen anything like it."
Sophia sighed, knowing that there was no talking Lily out of her infatuation once she got like this. She decided to change the subject.
"Vanessa is about to give birth to her second child your niece you out to come back to London."
"What! I will fly over right away!" Lily shouted as she hurried off. She had that woman number so she was not worried!
