If the imposter had bragged like that previously, no one would have taken
him seriously. However, he did manage to defeat two S- Level fighters.
consecutively. So, it was understandable that spectators were skeptical.
“This is unbelievable.”
Frederick accepted the outcome with resignation. Like many other spectators
who had lost bets, he felt frustrated by the turn of events.
He was particularly disheartened. While it was uncertain who would
ultimately claim the title of “Eagle–Eyed,” he was undoubtedly among the top
five contenders for being the unluckiest.
“Frederick, I suggest you give up. When it comes to luck, you can’t beat that
fatso!” Beatrix advised him.
No matter who advised/him, he remained determined. His infatuation with
her primarily fueled his resolve. Ever since their last misunderstanding, he
had daydreamed about the joy of dating her. Now, he was undeniably in love

with her.
When Beatrix doubted his ability to defeat fatso, Frederick felt compelled to
prove her wrong, even if it was just a single victory.
Meanwhile, Emmanuel couldn’t help but sigh when he noticed Frederick’s
disappointment. However, he had no time to dwell on their love triangle. After
notifying Mackenzie, he prepared to assume the role of Luna.
“Mackenzie!” Beatrix suddenly appeared beside Mackenzie with a
mischievous smile that put others on edge.
“What’s going on?” Mackenzie asked with a frown.
“Isn’t Emmanuel’s alias a bit over the top?” Beatrix remarked.
“You... You know about it?” Mackenzie responded and was visibly surprised by
her sudden interest in the topic. She wondered what Beatrix’s ulterior motive
might be.
“Of course!” Beatrix nodded and whispered, “Would you
mind if I became v

sister?”
“Sister?” Her query took Mackenzie aback. She couldn’t help but wonder if
Beatrix harbored thoughts of becoming Emmanuel’s second wife. She
couldn’t believe Beatrix would entertain such dangerous thoughts.
“Yes.” Beatrix blinked and declared, “Is that okay? I don’t want to marry
anyone else in the future. I just want to live with you and Emmanuel forever.”
Mackenzie frowned and shook her head. “No, that’s not possible. He’s your
brother–in–law, you... you silly girl. There are plenty of wonderful men out.
there. You don’t have to...
Η
“What are you talking about?” Beatrix deliberately probed Mackenzie’s
reaction. Sensing that Mackenzie’s thoughts were veering off course, Beatrix
swiftly feigned ignorance. “I mean, you don’t treat me as a cousin but as your
sister.”
Mackenzie was left speechless. She pondered whether Beatrix’s words were
intentionally vague. All she wanted was to break through Beatrix’s facade and

prevent her from having an affair with her husband.
“What did you mean by saying Emmanuel has multiple aliases? Do you know
his true identity?“,
“Yeah, I know!” Beatrix replied with a nod. “Even those two dummies behind
me know, right? Luna Moone and Emmanuel are displaying their affection so
openly. It’s cringeworthy!”
After teasing Mackenzie, Beatrix made a face and returned to her seat. She
pretended to be oblivious to Wolf Warrior’s true identity.
Mackenzie sighed and felt conflicted about what to do next. While she could
treat any other woman as a romantic rival, the situation differed with Beatrix,
whom Mackenzie had considered her sister for
years.
Lost in thought, Mackenzie contemplated how to navigate Beatrix’s feelings
for Emmanuel. Unbeknownst to her, two rounds of matches concluded on the
stage.

Wyatt effortlessly defeated his opponents, and Luna emerged victorious in
her match.
“Hey, another exciting match is coming up in the next round. Luna, the
favorite for the championship, will face off with the former Grandmaster!”
“Yeah, I didn’t expect it to happen so soon!”
“It feels like an early finals showdown, doesn’t it? The winner will claim the title
of Grandmaster!”
“It’s hard to predict. That Yosef is also quite formidable!”
As the surrounding discussions resumed, Mackenzie couldn’t shake off her
nerves. Suppose Emmanuel was to exhaust himself fighting Wyatt and
sustain injuries. Would he still be able to defeat Yosef tomorrow night? She
was uncertain about Emmanuel’s current thoughts.
Deep down, Mackenzie, only wished for Emmanuel’s safety. As long as he
emerged unscathed/he would remain a hero in her eyes and the eyes of
their child.
With Luna’s victory, half of the matches in the round of 32 had concluded. The
matches in the lower half of the bracket proceeded relatively smoothly,
unlike the previous night, which had seen frequent upsets.
Eshal’s top two fighters also successfully advanced to the top 16.
