Wow!
This cool kid can now speak so many words at one go.
He even looks especially intimidating!
Hiding behind Ian, Matteo made a face at the others. “Did you hear that? My brother says that all of you are here just for his amusement. What are you going to do about it?”
“That’s right! Hmph!”
Behind Ian, Vivian waved her small yet chubby fist as she glowered at the crowd.
“These bunch of scoundrels are just so annoying!”
The crowd was infuriated by their provocative words. A few of the children, who weren’t much older than Matteo, approached him with the intention of beating him up.
Trying to beat me up?
Fine, let’s see who gets beaten up in the end? A long time had passed since he had been in a fight and he was itching for one.
Never shying from a good fight, Matteo rolled up his sleeves, exposing his tender arms. Nevertheless, those little arms of his were filled with strength and devastating power.
The children opposite him were dumbfounded and so was Ian.
Just went the fight was about to break out, the teachers who were sorting out the entrance passes a while ago returned. Amongst them were Ian’s teacher and Sasha.
“Little Ian, Matteo, what are you doing? The passes are ready. Let’s go in quickly now.”
“That’s right, Ian. Let’s go. Your performance is second on the program.”
“Alright, Mommy!”
The triplets acknowledged Sasha’s instructions and followed her and Ian’s teacher inside.
Just when they were leaving, Matteo turned around and made a face at the group.
There nothing you can do to us!
“That pipsqueak! I’m going to kill him!”
The crowd was outraged by Matteo’s taunt. One of the boys in a white suit charged forward to beat Matteo up.
Luckily, someone managed to restrain him before he could get far.
“Don’t hold a grudge against those little punks as there’s no point in doing so. The performance will be broadcasted on national TV. If he treats it as practice, he will end up embarrassing himself in front of the whole nation.”
“Really? That’s fantastic!”
Having heard those words, the group of children that were furious at Matteo felt their anger recede. Instead, they were now waiting in anticipation for Ian to fail and humiliate himself.
