Chapter 101
Beads of sweat glistened on his forehead. His shirt was soaked through with cold sweat, but the tattooed guy didn’t have the strength to deal with Calliope.
His face twisted with discomfort, and he asked his buddies for help. “It hurts, it hurts! Hurry up. Help me!” “Huh?” His buddies hadn’t noticed their leader’s distress until he shouted. Then, they rushed over to assist him.
But they were too late. Calliope suddenly kicked out, sending the man flying backward. He landed heavily on the ground.
“You’re crazy, you woman p>
“What did you do to our boss p>
The other guys glanced back at the tattooed man, then charged at Calliope.
“Portia, step aside. Don’t get caught in the crossfire.” Calliope instructed, and Portia quickly darted to the side.
Calliope moved with lightning speed in her tank top, executing flawless judo throws, flying kicks, and sweeping strikes, knocking the guys down in seconds.
She then grabbed the tattooed guy and hoisted him up with one arm. He must’ve weighed at least 250 pounds, but she lifted him as if he were a ragdoll, slapping him across the face.
A small crowd began to gather around.
“Whoa, who is this girl? She’s amazing p>
“That’s so badass p>
“Geez, what is she, the Hulk? How is she that strong p>
“I couldn’t lift that guy, and she just picks him up like a toy? And she’s not even taller than him p>
“But she’s so cool. This girl is awesome p>
The onlookers chattered excitedly.
Lisette had expected Calliope to be in trouble and that Valerian would watch indifferently.
Instead, her men were getting thoroughly beaten by Calliope.
Calliope showed no mercy, and the guys begged for mercy in no time.
“Wasn’t this supposed to be fun? I think it’s pretty entertaining! You guys just suck at it. Maybe train a bit more if you want to play p>
“Hey, what’s with the eye-rolling? What’s that? Got a problem with me? Not satisfied p>
“Fine, let’s keep going p>
Calliope continued to thrash them until they were nearly foaming at the mouth.
Only then did she disdainfully drop the guy to the ground. “Do you think blowing bubbles like a crab means you’ve won p>
Lisette’s face went pale. She had never known Calliope was so formidable.
“Callie, you’ll kill them. It isn’t right p>
Before Lisette could finish, Calliope’s icy gaze fixed on her, as if she had emerged from the depths of hell. Lisette shivered.
“Oh, it isn’t right?” Calliope smirked. “Should I stop hitting them and hit you instead?” “Callie “
“Callie? Stop calling Callie. Don’t get attached.” Calliope stood right in front of Lisette.
“Enough!” Stunned by Calliope’s prowess, Valerian finally snapped back to reality.
He stepped before Lisette protectively, glaring at Calliope. “Beating them is one thing, but Lisette didn’t do anything to you. What are you planning p>
Calliope looked at Valerian coldly, saying nothing.
Valerian felt deeply unsettled under her gaze.
“Callie, you can’t blame them for having thoughts about you. The way you’re dressed, it’s like you’re
asking for trouble.” Emboldened by Valerian’s presence, Lisette spoke up.
“Oh, so you’re saying it’s my fault for dressing this way, and that’s why they tried to harass me p>
