At that moment, the lady had already made it in front of Jared. She was obviously surprised to see how quickly he had reacted to her attacks.
However, that didn't stop her assault. She kept swinging her dagger and aimed for Jared's neck.
“I can't believe you're immune to my Seduction Technique. Are you even a man?” The lady was so angry that she was turning pale, and her gaze on Jared was turning cruel as well.
“Wait, do you find that strange? But... don't you already know all that?” asked Jared. He caught the dagger and gripped it to snap it in half. The blade fell onto the floor immediately after.
At the very next second, the negative energy within the lady burst out. Black aura flushed up to reach for the sky.
It happened in a blink of an eye and the black aura engulfed Jared.
The sudden emergence of the black aura, the way the lady moved when she attacked... All that told Jared something crucial.
“Y-You're not Melanie?”
Jared's gaze brimmed with surprise because the lady standing in front of him looked identical to Melanie. On top of that, they were both great at using the Seduction Technique.
He would've kept mistaking her as Melanie if she hadn’t attacked and used the poisonous gas. They look way, way so much alike.
He recalled every detail and noticed that the two ladies were nothing alike despite having similar appearances. For instance, the lady standing in front of him had a negative energy that Melanie didn't.
“I've never said I was. You're the one who mistook me for that Melanie lady.”
After saying that, she threw a punch at Jared.
The way she analyzed the situation was simple. The black poisonous gas had already engulfed Jared, so he would feel dizzy once the poison's effect kicked in. Hence, there was no way he could block her punch.
Things didn't work out the way she anticipated. Jared easily moved away from her attack. He even inhaled deeply and absorbed every bit of the poison into his system.
“Who are you? Why do you look exactly like my friend?”
Jared didn’t attack the lady. He simply stared at her curiously.
