The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

As the strongest of the eight 'super weapons' of their Blue Hydra gang, the gangster known as 'Cobra' naturally had the confidence to completely destroy the little girl in front of him, even after she'd taken down some of his 'lesser' comrades.

After all, the only real trouble she posed from the start was her speed, and even then Cobra was sure that he'd be able to take her down given some time, though the results would be far from ideal. Regardless of her ability to defeat the boss and his other comrades, the fact that he 'struggled' against a little girl would definitely be more of a mark of shame than a badge of honor.

But that was no longer that big of a concern now that the little girl had already used up a lot of her stamina. Even if she could show a few bursts of speed in desperation, she was still nothing but a fish on the chopping block as far as Cobra was concerned.

So long as he easily took her down now, not only would it further establish his reputation in the gang, but it would also pave the way for him to take over the position of the leader later!

Cobra couldn't help but grin when he thought about his bright prospects, and he even started to find the annoying girl who caused them so much trouble somewhat pleasing to the eye. 'Hmmm… maybe I'll let her live after all.'

Emilia was naturally unaware of the muscled man's fantasies, and only frowned slightly when she saw him approach her confidently. 'Many of them probably already doubt their chances now, right?'

Although she'd shown 'weakness' at every appropriate point to entice them into attacking her, the crimson-haired girl knew that she couldn't underestimate the vigilance of these thugs too much.

After all, they'd managed to survive so long on the streets before joining Blue Hydra, and there definitely had to be some survival instinct buried deep down beneath all that arrogance nurtured by their gang's formidable reputation.

What she wanted to do today wasn't just to get the perfect video of little Emi taking down one of the biggest gangs in this area. She also wanted to cut all the heads of this 'Blue Hydra' off so they could never show their faces again!

Cynthia wondered if Emilia was so against their existence just because their name resembled the 'pet' mortal nation her partner liked so much, but she didn't want to disturb the girl.

After all, if she messed up and spontaneously shattered the skull of that thug, it would definitely not be something that they would be able to use in a commercial. And if her partner's video was ruined because of her interference…

Thinking about all the 'pending' accounts between them from before, Cynthia couldn't help but shudder. 'N-No no, no way. Although Emilia has already waived off so many 'grudges', she's definitely writing them down in her little notebook somewhere, and I'll definitely suffer them all together when things turn over!'

Fortunately, Emilia didn't know that her partner didn't take her generosity seriously at all, or Cynthia would definitely have suffered an early retribution.

She calmly avoided the power-packed punches of the buff man in front of her, all by a hair's breadth, and jabbed out with several 'light' punches and kicks at his back and abdomen from time to time.

Of course, although Cobra was both extremely frustrated at constantly missing her and also in a lot of pain from the girl's deceptively strong strikes, he still barely managed to maintain his mask of calmness while cursing internally. 'Holy fuck it hurts! I changed my mind, I'm definitely tearing this bitch apart from inside out once I've taken her down, and then I'll feed her to the dogs!'

The rest of them could only watch with bated breath, with many just praying that nothing went wrong.

Some had even called the police secretly, even though they knew that it would probably be fruitless and maybe even counterproductive to the goals of the higher-ups. After all, even if they didn't know how to fight and were powerless in front of the gangsters, they couldn't just watch and wait for something to go wrong with little Emi, could they?

In contrast, the gangsters were mostly all eagerly awaiting Cobra's first punch against the girl's face.

Although it was a pity that they weren't able to teach her a lesson personally after she'd dared challenge them like this, it should still be satisfying enough to watch Cobra turn her into a bloodstain on the ground.

Unfortunately, they were all bound to be disappointed.

The little girl kept panting harder and harder as she dodged each of Cobra's strikes, but the 'gap' between the two of them never seemed to narrow at all!

It made no sense to them until a few exclaimed in shock. "Shit! Cobra is also getting slower!"

"Damn!"

"No wonder he can't beat her!"

It was clear that the little girl had slowed down quite a bit from when she started after observing carefully, and the only reason that Cobra couldn't hit her was because he was slowing down and panting rapidly at an even faster rate.

For the 'strongest' of their so-called super weapons, having such little stamina was simply too shameful!

Although they didn't curse him directly, Cobra still felt like he was about to have a stroke from anger. "You damn morons dare to look down on me? Don't forget that I'm the strongest of the super eight!"

Emilia almost rolled her eyes at his excessive pride. 'Geez, he's acting like he's some sort of super hero, when really he's just a slightly stronger gangster in a pathetic little gang. All they're good at is bullying the helpless and the poor, what's there to be so proud of?!'

Of course, Cobra's burst of rage wasn't completely useless, and at least it seemed to have empowered him just enough to make the man 'exceed his limits' and make the fastest strike of his life.

Unfortunately for him, though, Emilia's patience had run out, and her goal of 'bamboozling' the rest of the 'audience' had also been achieved.

A 'lucky' kick landed on Cobra's face, and the man barely managed to capture the image of Emilia's pearly little toes before his vision went black, just like his 'predecessors'.

The heavy, muscled man collapsed on his knees with a dull thud, and Emilia landed somewhat gracefully after jumping off his shoulders behind him.

If not for the somberness of the scene, the staff would definitely have clapped in amazement.

Even for professional performers, that jumping kick was simply magnificent! For little Emi to be able to do it in one take in the midst of such an intense scene was simply astonishing!

They couldn't help but find it fortunate that the cameras were all rolling, and such a great moment had been captured in full detail on the reel. How great was it that they would be able to watch it all again to their heart's content later?

Unfortunately, little Emi was also only human, and the repeated stress on her body seemed to have finally drained her stamina enough to start showing major flaws.

Shortly after her graceful landing on the ground, the little girl stumbled forward slightly before regaining her balance, and her expression momentarily changed before her calm appearance was restored.

To everyone else, it was only a momentarily collapse of the actor's character due to the stressful scene, but to the gangsters, it was proof that the little girl was doing her best to pretend to be strong!

In reality, she was definitely on the verge of collapse!

The gangsters were only momentarily dumbfounded at the sudden turn of the situation before they burst into action.

"Get her!"

"Don't let her escape!"

They knew that Cobra might lose from the moment when the man failed to gain an advantage in the fight before, but if the little girl thought she was going to 'win' just because she defeated Cobra, she was really too naïve!

"Little bitch, you think you can fool us?!"

This wasn't a movie. Because she managed to defeat the strongest of them, the rest had no choice but to retreat? What a joke!

Exhausting herself while being surrounded by enemies with such a naïve plan only left to a single ending in the real world.

Defeat and humiliation.
