Bab 31: I Have To Find Technique Strong Enough To Rival Aang...

Grey looked down at Sasha, who was still on the ground, his eyes filled with disgust. Raising his hand, he spoke with a cold, unwavering voice, "I appeal to change the captain."

Jane, standing near Sasha, turned to face Grey's piercing gaze. "Grey, we can talk about that later. Calm down for now."

Walking closer, a chuckle escaped Grey's lips. "What is there to even talk about now? She hasn't kept even a little shame." His disgusted eyes fell on Sasha again. "Did she talk to us before making such a deal?"

His eyes remained fixed on Sasha, expecting a response, but she stayed silent, which only fuelled his anger even more.

"Grey, I know the way she handled things was wrong, but her intentions were for the benefit of team. It was us who lost, okay? So calm down, and we'll talk it out later, there is no need to make commotion here," Jane said, before turning to Sasha with a gentle tone. "Right? Sasha, stand up now. Let's sit and talk this out first."

"Yeah, see, guys, only a whore can support another one," Grey taunted, his tone cold and filled with rage and disdain.

Fuck!

Jane snapped, walking over and grabbing Grey's collar. Her cold eyes bored into his. "Mind what you say, Grey. You're crossing the limit."

His jaw clenched, a flicker of annoyance crossing his eyes.

Grey grabbed Jane's hand on his collar and forcefully pushed her back. "I don't give a fuck. Look around you, Jane. We have been made laughingstocks. I don't know about you, but I have pride, and I won't tolerate this shit. I here and now revoke the majority rule."

A frown appeared on Jane's features,

With a small pause, Grey then turned towards Ashton, who was standing beside Asuka. His serious gaze looked straight into Ashton's eyes, making him bit uncomfortable, "Ashton, listen you know you are a mediocre guy. Now people will troll you even more for working under a whore. So think about why you came here, to Black Dragon. Make your decision calmly."

Though Grey's words were straight out insulting, they indeed had a point. However, at the moment Ashton chose to remain silent.

Then Grey turned to Asuka. He took his time, considering his words carefully before speaking. "Your Highness, you understand, right? Your grandfather is the Sword God. Even after I became S class, I would still call you 'sir.' Someone of your stature—how can you work under a whore?"

'That's why I hate you, damn fucker. Even now, you're taunting me. TSK!' Asuka thought, giving an awkward smile.

As Grey's words fell, a chuckle from the opposite direction drew everyone's attention. "Oh, sorry for interrupting. Watching you guys was so fun," Leo said, looking at Jane and Grey's frustrated expressions.

'When will all this be over? I have to plan a strategy for tonight,' Asuka thought. His disinterest was evident as he glanced around. Noticing Asuka's bored look, Ashton averted his gaze, equally uninterested.

"It's enough, Leo." A sharp voice cut through the air, making Leo's shoulders tense. He turned slowly to see Aang, whose eyes bore into him with undisguised disgust, "This place is not your slum where you can act however you want, mind your cheap acts or I don't need a trial to beat your ass,"

Upon straight-up warning, Leo's fierce gaze initially met Aang's, sizing him up, but he quickly shifted to a wide, friendly smile. His whole body language changed from arrogance to submissive, "Of course, brother. I was just kidding," he chuckled, trying to laugh it off.

However, Aang's unwavering stare silenced him. "From now on, think before you joke around."

Aang's gaze then shifted towards Sasha, who was still hopelessly on the ground with her head facing down. His eyes filled with disappointment, he continued "With that mentality, other professions would be better for you than being a warden. You're just wasting a seat here."

Sasha had shown no emotion until Aang's words pierced through. Tears began to flow silently down her cheeks, not from outright crying, but as if each word had struck a nerve... Attacking straight up her heart.

A small, unnoticeable smile appeared on Asuka's face. "Finally, this boring drama is over," he muttered under his breath, checking the time on his CAD.

Before leaving, Aang turned his gaze to Asuka. "I was waiting for you," he said, his disappointment evident.

A smirk appeared on Asuka's face as he replied firmly, "I'm not that foolish."

"Right,"

As Aang walked away, Leo exhaled a long breath, his relief palpable. "So, I'll be off then, Sasha-chan. If you want to relieve your frustration, you're welcome anytime."

"Wait," Grey said, gripping Leo's shoulder. "Remember, next time, your cheap tricks won't work."

"LOL!" Leo responded with a taunting chuckle. "For now, I'll excuse myself."

"Bastard!"

As Leo walked away.

Jane placed a comforting hand on Sasha's shoulder. "Let's sort it all out at 9 PM in my room," she said, her eyes scanning the group's faces. "Is that fine with you all?"

"No, I'm tired. We'll do it tomorrow," Asuka replied, signalling goodbye as he headed towards his room.

Ashton watched Asuka's retreating back with suspicion. "What are you up to?" he murmured to himself.

****

<Night: 12 AM>

Asuka moved silently, the hood of his hoodie pulled low over his head, glasses concealing his eyes despite the night. He walked towards the opposite building, each step measured. Suddenly, he froze, his eyes widening in shock. A shadowy figure stood before him, a smirk of surprise appearing on Asuka's face. He hadn't expected this. "So, you can see that far into the future?"
