Alicia murmured, pressing her back against Arthur's as they faced the five people surrounding them, "You just keep quiet and let me take care of these five." She could feel his strength from behind; he seemed formidable, not weak, and she thought to herself, "Do I really need to help him?"
"Hi, Miss," Arthur said softly, addressing Alicia. "I really don't want to drag you into my problems and I would be grateful if you wouldn't offer to help me - it would only add to your own difficulties."
"Do you think I'm weak?" Alicia asked, her expression determined and her fists clenched, as if she were ready to strike if the people in front of her attempted anything.
"Alright," Deacon interjected. "I don't think we need to wait any longer. Let's do it. Beat them both up," he said decisively.
However, he paused to take a closer look at Alicia, who appeared to have taken good care of herself; her countenance was immaculate and her skin was smooth and radiant. He was confident that she could endure a few rounds, even if five people tried to rape her simultaneously.
"But, let's not hurt her too much. We don't want our meal to be spoiled, do we?"
Alicia felt her ears becoming hot as her emotions rose sharply in response to Deacon's words. "Have you got it into your head that women are only here to satisfy your desires?," she spat angrily. "I will break your manhood until you can no longer even dream of touching women in your life!"
"Kiaaa!" Alicia screeched, lunging forward in a single, graceful motion. Her right leg shot up, delivering three consecutive kicks that landed squarely on the chests of the three men standing before her.
"Shoot!" one of the men exclaimed in disbelief, astonished at how skillfully Alicia performed her kicks.
The man in front of Alicia attempted to protect himself with his hands, yet he felt the girl's kick had immense strength. He tried to collide with Alicia. However, the girl swiftly evaded and counterattacked with a knee kick.
"Kiaaa! Kiaaa! Kiaaa!"
Alicia fiercely and nimbly attacked the man in front of her, despite her small size compared to their tall build. She made it seem as if the three men had been overwhelmed by her onslaught.
"Woah!" Arthur exclaimed in amazement, watching as Alicia flawlessly executed her kick. Taking her cue, he attempted to replicate her technique when two men abruptly sprinted towards him.
"Kill him!" they shouted.
Arthur was quick on his feet, and with a swift kick, he managed to deliver a powerful strike to the two men's cheeks, sending them both crashing to the ground in an unconscious pile.
Arthur acted without hesitation, standing up calmly yet looking intimidating to the five people who had witnessed the scene.
"What the hell?! How is this guy so strong?" one of them said, shock evident in their voice.
"We definitely picked the wrong people!" another one added.
