“Why are all of you still standing there? Go after him!” yelled one of the young men who seemed to be the group’s leader.
However, before they even could make their next move, the group of five realized that they had already been surrounded! A fight soon broke out and chaos ensued, preventing them from continuing with their mission.
“F*ck off!” roared the leader angrily as he shoved his unknown assailants aside, desperately trying to escape the havoc.
By the time he was finally able to free himself, Gerald was nowhere to be seen.
Enraged, the group’s leader then began stomping his foot against the tar road to release his frustration.
As that was happening, within a manor well-hidden from the public view, a group of teenagers approached a butler before one of them asked, “Where’s the young mistress?”
“She’s at the dojo,” replied the butler.
After having their question answered, the group of twelve then began making their way there.
Meanwhile, Jasmine was busy sparring others in the dojo. Her hair had been tied up in a ponytail and she sported a crisp, white, martial arts robe.
Her opponents were seven young men who usually ran missions together with the five others who had been sent to chase after Gerald. Though she was clearly outnumbered, Jasmine was still the one doing most of the beating up.
Mindy was there as well, though she was simply munching away on potato chips while occasionally cheering Jasmine on as she continued punching the wind out of her opponents.
“You’re getting increasingly better at this, young mistress! Judging by how quickly your progress is coming along, soon, I don’t think that I’ll even have anything more to teach you!” said her master who had been observing her spar from the very beginning.
As soon as the master’s sentence ended, the group of twelve from earlier arrived at the dojo. Upon seeing Jasmine, all twelve of them bowed in unison.
All of the youngsters in that dozen were world-renown champions in Taekwondo and Karate. They were all Jasmine’s masters as well.
“Hah, you’re being too humble… As for the seven of you, go ahead and have a rest first!”
“You’re pretty powerful, aren’t you? Despite being severely outnumbered, you still managed to come out on top! I wish I was as strong as you!” exclaimed Mindy.
