As Aurora stepped forward to touch Orion's shoulder, the group of cheaters immediately took notice of her. Their expressions shifted from annoyance to malicious interest as they saw the beautiful woman.
"Hey, beautiful lady, why don't you join us? With us, you surely can get a very good beast," one of the men said, his tone suggestive and his eyes roaming over Aurora's figure.
Aurora ignored their advances and instead turned to Orion, her voice calm and measured. "Orion, don't waste your time on them. There are many people like them in the world, so sometimes we need to use force to bring justice."
Orion nodded, understanding what Aurora was getting at. He knew that sometimes it was necessary to use force to teach people like these cheaters a lesson.
Taking a step forward, Orion faced the group of cheaters, who seemed taken aback by his sudden boldness. They had probably expected him to cower and back down, but Orion was not one to be intimidated easily.
"Do you think you could beat us?" one of the cheaters sneered, crossing his arms over his chest. "Do you know where we are from? We are from the Blood Clan. Do you dare now?"
Orion suddenly stopped at his track after hearing the name Blood Clan. The cheaters were surprised about this. They had expected Orion to continue walking, but instead, he stood still, looking deep in thought. The atmosphere around them shifted, becoming tense and charged with energy.
The group of cheaters, noticing Orion's hesitation, became more arrogant and aggressive. They stepped forward, surrounding him and Aurora, who stood by his side, ready to face whatever came their way.
"Now, you're afraid," one of the men said, a smirk on his face. "You think you can just walk away from us? We are from the Blood Clan. Do you dare now?"
Orion actually didn't stop because he was afraid. The truth was that he had never heard of the Blood Clan. He stopped for a moment to remember if he had ever come across this name before.
As he searched his memory, he noticed the tension rising among the cheaters. They became more aggressive, sensing their advantage. Orion realized that he needed to act fast before things got out of hand.
With a deep breath, Orion stood up straight and faced the group. His voice was firm and commanding as he spoke.
"I don't know who the Blood Clan is, but I'm not afraid of you. I'm not here to fight, but I won't back down from bullies like you."
The cheaters were taken aback by Orion's sudden change in attitude. They had expected him to cower in fear, but instead, he stood tall and confident.
One of the cheaters, who seemed to be the leader, stepped forward. His eyes were cold and calculating as he spoke.
"You're making a big mistake, kid. You don't know who you're dealing with. The Blood Clan is one of the strongest clans in this region. If you cross us, you'll regret it."
Orion didn't flinch. He stood his ground, ready to face whatever came his way.
"I don't care who you are or where you come from. You're nothing but bullies and cheaters. And I won't let you get away with it."
The cheaters hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. Orion's words had struck a nerve, and they didn't know how to react.
Orion continued to stand his ground, his eyes locked on the group of cheaters. Despite their numbers, he refused to back down.
The group of cheaters seemed to sense Orion's resolve, and they exchanged glances with each other. Then, one of them suddenly shouted, "He's only one man; let's get him."
As the group of cheaters advanced towards him, Orion took a deep breath and readied himself for the confrontation. He knew that he was outnumbered, but he was not going to let them get away with cheating.
Orion's eyes flickered with a determined glint as he turned to Aurora, his expression resolute. "Step back, I'll handle them," he said firmly, indicating for her to move away from the group of cheaters.
Aurora nodded in agreement. She trusted Orion's skills and knew that he would not let anything happen to her. She knew that Orion was strong enough to handle them.
As Orion stepped forward to face the group of cheaters, their expressions twisted with anger and indignation. Who did this guy think he was, trying to play the hero for the girl? They were the ones in charge here, not him.
One of the men sneered at Orion, his voice dripping with disdain. "Trying to be a gentleman, huh? We don't need your help. Let's make him regret ever interrupting us."
With that, the group suddenly rushed forward, fists raised and weapons drawn. They struck out at Orion with reckless abandon, hoping to take him down before he had a chance to react.
Orion stood still, his eyes fixed on the group of aggressors in front of him. He had no intention of fighting back, even as they taunted and struck him with all their might. Their punches and kicks were like weak gusts of wind against a sturdy wall, doing nothing to sway him.
The group grew more frustrated by the second. How could this guy withstand their attacks so easily? They began to grow desperate, throwing themselves at Orion with even more force and recklessness. But each time, they were met with the same unyielding resistance.
Orion remained stoic throughout the onslaught, his eyes never leaving his attackers. He knew that he could take them down in an instant if he wanted to, but he didn't see the point in doing so. He wanted them to learn a lesson.
As the group grew tired and began to back off, Orion finally spoke. "Is that all you have? You call yourselves fighters, but you can't even inflict a bit of damage on me."
The group bristled at the taunt, but they knew deep down that it was true. They had been bested by a seemingly ordinary guy, and it was a blow to their egos. One of them stepped forward, clenching his fists in frustration. "Who are you, anyway? What makes you so tough?"
Orion just looked at the group for a moment, then slowly shook his head. "I'm nobody," he said quietly. The group exchanged confused glances, unsure of what to make of this sudden admission. But before they could say anything, Orion suddenly rushed at them, his movements fluid and graceful.
The group was caught off guard and barely had time to react before Orion struck, his fist connecting with one of their faces. The impact was enough to knock the person out cold, and the others stumbled back in shock. They had underestimated Orion, and now they were paying the price.
Orion quickly took advantage of their confusion, moving swiftly from one person to the next and striking with precision. His movements were like a dance, each strike perfectly timed and executed with deadly accuracy. It was clear that he was not a stranger to fighting, and the group was quickly realizing that they were outmatched.
As the last person fell to the ground, groaning in pain, Orion stood tall and looked down at them. "I told you, I'm nobody," he said calmly. "But that doesn't mean I can't defend myself."
The group was silent, staring up at him in a mixture of fear and awe. They had never seen anyone move like that before, and they were humbled by the realization that they were no match for him. But as the shock wore off, their anger began to rise once again.
"You may have won this time," one of them spat, "but we'll be back. And next time, we won't hold back."
Orion just shrugged, his expression unreadable. "Do what you want," he said dismissively. "But remember, don't cheat or else."
With that, he turned and walked away with Aurora, leaving the group to nurse their wounds and ponder the mystery of the unassuming young man who had bested them so easily.
