Capítulo 20: Felicity Weisz (Part 2)
After finishing dinner, Kiba grabbed a glass of water.
"So tired."
The two intense 'battles' he had fought before coming to the party left him exhausted. Each battle consisted of multiple rounds, so his exhaustion was understandable.
The first battle alone comprised three rounds against Eva. The second, though only two rounds, featured competitors who were two famous actresses.
"I'm getting old," Kiba said aloud with a soft sigh. "Otherwise, I would have more than enough strength to spar with you, Meghan."
"!" Meghan Adley and the other models were surprised by the sudden remark.
"Battle? Surely..." Meghan's face flushed as she realized the innuendo.
"Meghan, rest assured, we can discuss the details another time," Kiba said with a smile. "In fact, seeing you here, I feel like I'm regaining my strength."
Meghan was about to respond when she noticed Hank Webley stepping towards them. She quickly rose to her feet to greet him, but Hank pretty much ignored her.
He stood before Kiba and said, "It seems the refreshments I provided have worked."
"They were good, but I am exhausted," Kiba replied with a sigh.
"Haha. My friend, there's a lady I'd like you to meet," Hank said.
"A lady?" All signs of exhaustion disappeared from Kiba's face.
"A true man can never be afraid of new battles, no matter how exhausted he is!" Kiba declared rather strongly.
Meghan: "...."
Kiba jumped to his feet to see the 'lady' Hank was talking about.
He noticed a young woman in her early twenties approaching him. She was extremely beautiful, but when Kiba saw her, he was stunned, not by her beauty.
"Felicity!"
In this world, there was nothing he feared except for the death of his dreams. There was no one he feared offending.
But there was one person he would never offend, no matter what.
It was a young woman named Felicity! Someone he didn't expect to meet here!
"I shouldn't be worried," Kiba suppressed his shock. "She doesn't know this form."
Felicity, Carole, and two young men arrived in front of Kiba.
Seeing the legend named Kiba standing before her, Felicity's eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Hello!" Felicity greeted him.
She had a fearless personality and liked fearless people. From what she knew, Kiba was a fearless man, so for her, meeting him was a must.
She wasn't interested in romance or a one-night stand with him. She just wanted to meet a man who didn't fear danger!
She believed Kiba qualified, given his affairs with the wives and daughters of strong corporate officers!
Without any warning, she hugged Kiba.
"You're somewhat sweating," Felicity said as she stepped back from the hug. "Almost as if something has shocked you."
Hank and Carole were strong mutants, so they too noticed the sweating.
"Sir Kiba, are you alright?" Carole asked.
"It's hot here," Kiba replied.
"What do you mean it's hot?" Felicity asked, her eyebrows creased.
The entire party room was air-conditioned with an optimal temperature. So how could someone be sweating here?
"I mean you're too hot," Kiba said as he wiped the sweat with a tissue. "So can you blame my body for that?"
"Wow! You're as bold as the legends claim!" Felicity's face glittered with admiration.
"Thank you," Kiba tried to sound modest.
" Ah! I forgot to introduce myself!" Felicity said.
"I already know y--," Kiba stopped midway. He couldn't let her know he knew her.
"You know me?" Felicity asked excitedly.
"A fine lady like you needs no introduction," Kiba answered.
"*cough* Kiba, let me introduce you to this fine lady," Hank stepped in.
"Her name is Felicity Weisz. She is the top student of the best academy in our city - Royal Heart Academy.
"She has won multiple awards in mutant competitions conducted by both the World Government and corporate offices."
Hank gave a detailed introduction.
"In fact, she's the only person to step on top of BSE79 meteoroid without any external help! I'm sure you're aware that not even the strongest mutant dares to climb there alone!"
When the Evolution Comet arrived in the year 1900, giant meteorites crashed on Earth's surface. These meteorites contained strange minerals that were responsible for the large-scale mutation on the planet.
The BSE79 meteoroid was one of those meteorites. Climbing on top of it without any help was simply courting death!
"I know it better than anyone, as I'm in the same class as her! She's a psycho who would do anything for the thrill of danger!" Kiba thought.
She was his friend in the academy, but he almost dreaded her.
Not because of some physical fear or anything, but because of her nature. Because she believed in the saying 'friends should share dangers'. Her way of life was entirely different from his.
"It's amazing to meet you," Kiba said while extending his right hand for a handshake.
"Man, why are you such a pussy? I hugged you, so you should hug me as well instead of this handshake. I only do handshakes when I'm meeting kids. Fearless people like us only hug!" Felicity responded with a heavy sigh.
Carole, Hank, Meghan, the two young men, and the models nearby were shocked. A fine lady was speaking such words?!
"..." Kiba fell silent.
So far, today had been a great day for him, given the time he spent with Eva and the two actresses. He was further delighted with the promise of a date with Carole. Then the cherry on top of this lovely cake was the invitation to judge Miss Delta, along with Meghan's number.
But now he met an acquaintance from his other persona! An acquaintance who wasn't normal in her thinking!
