The Conqueror Who Conquered

Debaran Hati Richi

"Hugo, my hand hurts" he whined to Hugo.

"Attep". Hugo let go of Camilla's embrace. "You're saying he helped you?" Ask with furrowed eyebrows.

Camilla nodded slowly. "He kicked the man's back down there". Camilla pointed to where the man had fallen down due to Richi's kick from behind her.

Hearing that, Hugo fell silent. Apparently he was wrong. He had thought that this jerk was bothering Richi. Turns out he was wrong. He also remembers his anger towards Richi. For some reason, just out when he saw the girl did not run away or ask for help when he was dealing with a bad person.

"Hugo, look at my wrist.." Whine Camilla while holding her wrist that had been held by the stranger.

Hugo was silent as he stared at Richi's back until it was lost in the darkness of the night.

🌿🌿🌿🌿

Richi sat down and raised his legs on a bench. He squinted at his sprained ankle during the martial practice earlier.

"It hurts, huh?" Leonard, his opponent in martial arts was sitting next to him. He gives a bottle of drink to Richi.

"Lumayan". He answered while receiving the drink.

"Sorry, yes. I also wonder why Mr. Ronald told me to fight you". He felt guilty for the girl. They usually fight one gender.

"It's okay. He's so probably because my dad asked for it." Richi drank in his hand.

"Your father?"

Richi nodded. "She wants me to be a strong, pain-resistant woman".

"Why is that? You are, woman. After all, you have an older brother, right?" Leon asks who has known Richi since he first enrolled in this building, eight years ago. Richi was here long before Leon came.

"My brother did the same. There's something I can't tell you". Say it again with a faint smile.

"But I felt it was the right decision, because no woman would fight me. So, fighting men isn't bad either". Say it again while drinking the drink until it runs out.

"Still sick?" Richi pointed to the man's blue temple who had been hit by High Kick by Richi.

"Still a little oyong. My butter up the drone". He said while pressing his left ear which was noisy due to a sharp kick from Richi.

Richi held back her laughter. I feel sorry for Leon. At first Richi was eager to kick someone. Then when Ronald sets it up against Leon, he fiery zeal strikes and hits Leon.

"I'm sorry, Leon. But you're cool, you've made a lot of progress". Richi gave his thumb.

Leon just laughed. Because in this place, people usually train themselves not to do revenge. But Richi, instead did the opposite.

"Hey hurry, the break is over". Someone told them. Then they moved to the training ground.

There, the girls were already gathered in front of a tall man.

"Who is that?" Leon glanced at the man whose face was unfamiliar in the midst of people.

Richi widened his eyes when he saw the man standing there also looking at him with a smile.

"Sister Emer?" Richie ran over to him. He saw Emerald wearing a double-dressed black.

"Richi, it's good to see you here". He smiled brightly.

"Let's all gather. I'll introduce you to someone." Said Ronald who made Richi sit with his friends.

"This is your senior. Just got back a few days ago from across the country. He was one of the members in the X branch of state. His name is Emerald Valter. And will help me train you here." Ronald was clear to his students.

All applauded in welcoming Emerald. Especially Richi. His eyes twinkled looking at the circular black belt on the man's waist. That's grand. His inner.

"Thank!" Emer called for Richi who stepped out after training was over. She has changed her clothes.

He slightly furrowed his eyebrows because Emer called him like his family.

Emer. They walk in tandem.

"You're angry if I call you that?" Emer asked while occasionally looking at Richi's expression.

"No. Just call me from brother cozy".

Richi's answer made Emerald smile brightly.

"You're not picked up?" Ask again because I didn't see Simon and his car parked here.

"No".

"Want me to drive you?"

"No need brother. I want to go somewhere". Say it again while squinting your eyes at Emer. The wind was quite strong against his face.

"Oh, so. Why are your belts white? I heard you've been here almost 10 years." Tanya Emer who had seen Richi even wear a belt for beginners.

"Haha. I don't know. My father likes to make things up. I don't know what moves I have to put out to move the belt". Richie laughed at his father's behavior. Be told to learn Taekwondo and others so that he is strong, but should not be arrogant to the level of the belt. At first he complained, because many mocked and underestimated him.

The belt is only attached to the belt. So that Richi keep trying hard and not arrogant. That's what his father said.

He even often receives pettiness from new people or transfers.

A while ago, a woman in a red drunk. Richi doesn't know what makes the girl hate him. Richie smiled at him.

During practice versus, he appoints Richi as his match opponent. People were agape, because the belt used by Richi is just a formality. Actually, he's a senior.

"You sure you want to fight him?" Ask Ronald at the time. "He's not your opponent".

"I just wanted to teach him the dwi hurigi style". So said the woman while smiling slylyly. He was annoyed to see Richi who sat there a lot, not doing any activities. Not even training. He is still a white belt.

Richie stands. Prepare to fight. But just entering early, Dwi Hurigi's style has Richi ejected and hit the woman's neck.

It was not him who taught, but Richilah who made clear the major was right around his neck. The woman never came back because she was ashamed.

Emer recalled that story from one of the members earlier.

"I also want to wear a black belt" he said with a frown and only a soft pat on the girl's shoulder.

"Other than Taekwondo, what martial arts did you learn?" Ask Emer who knows Richi joined some martial arts.

"Do you know where? Stalking me yes, hahaha" Ledek Richi on Emer who seems to know a lot about him.

"Picture it that way. I want to know a lot about you"

Hearing that, Richi's steps stopped. He looked at Emerald who was in front of him.

Heart's pounding. Not once twice did he hear a man tease him. But this time, from the mouth of a different man than usual, those words came out and made his heart thump.

"Say, is there more?" Emerald asked as he raised his eyebrows.

"Muay Thai" Richi said with smiling lips. He knew this guy liked it. And he also could not lie about the beatings in his heart.
