Triumph Above All Novel

Chapter 285

“How unconventional are we talking about?”Yulia questioned closely.Brushing his lips against her ear, Skylar whispered, “You have to take off all your clothes during the massage.”“Perv!”With rosiness flushing her face, Yulia balled her fists and pounded on Skylar’s chest.Skylar smiled without a word. The look on his face left more to the imagination.As expected, it did not take for Yulia to murmur a question, “Is the massage technique as amazing as you said?”“Of course!”Skylar confidently answered.The shade of red across her face darkened.She realized she did not mind Skylar running his hands along her curves.Besides, her earlier query seemed to let her inner thoughts slip…“It’s really you, the God of War!”A joyous clamor traveled from a short distance away.Yulia watched as a man in his fifties quickly approached them.The man was plastered in a body cast and even had a bandage around his head. The walking mummy was not a pretty sight.Paying no heed to the looks he was getting, the man took large strides to Skylar and choked with sobs, “I’ve been looking everywhere for you, sir. I can’t believe I ran into you here. Oh, God bless Alvonia’s martial arts!”It then struck Skylar that the man was Francis Reed, the owner of the martial arts gym that he took Lola to.Francis was bragging to him the other day when a group of foreigners barged in to start a fight. Francis was beaten up by the leader named Hanks.The defeat was nothing. Francis only had his inadequate skills to blame.However, Hanks insulted the national martial arts. Unable to stand by it, Skylar decided to teach Hanks a lesson. Skylar got goosebumps as his mind harked back to the overly enthusiastic reception from the students of the martial arts gym.He had tried to steer clear of anyone from the gym. Alas, he managed to bump into one of the fanatics here.Whether he was welcomed or not, Francis took a seat right next to Skylar.Skylar was bummed out. He was in the middle of flirting with Yulia. The guy was ruining it for him!Nevertheless, Francis was a decent guy. Despite lacking in strength, Francis accepted the fight like a man to defend the honor of Alvonia’s martial arts.Skylar had no reason to show Francis the door when the latter basically called him a God.Before Skylar said anything, Yulia jumped in with a question, “Who is this, Skylar?”“Mommy, I know! He’s the owner of the gym. Daddy took me to learn martial arts at his place. A few blue-eyed, big-nosed baddies picked on us…”Trying to impress herCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

mother, Lola was one step ahead of Skylar to answer the question.Yulia was able to get a vague idea of what had happened from Lola.She asked Francis, “Master Reed, what did you mean when you said God bless Alvonia’s martial arts?”Francis indignantly uttered, “It’s that Hanks guy!“After he lost to our God of War here, you ordered him to leave our land. Only, he didn’t. Hanks brought his coach over to challenge you.“But you disappeared without a trace. We couldn’t find you anywhere.“Those foreigners stirred trouble in my gym so much so I couldn’t run my business. They even went so far as to call Alvonians losers and under the heel of Utopians.“This has gone on for a week now. It’s too much for me to take, so the gym’s closed today. I came out to avoid them, but to my surprise, I met you here.“God bless Alvonia’s martial arts!“Please, sir. You must fight for our country’s honor!”
