While Corey was happy seeing Anna kiss her perverted boss and felt that they should do that more often, her opponent felt the opposite. He looked at the boy with a gaze filled with hatred as the boy had achieved something he fantasized about every single day of life ever since a new world opened to him having spied on his half-brother copulating with his maternal grandmother. Joe always wondered if this incident was somehow related to his special preference for gilf.

Before Joe could decide on the boy as his arch-enemy he saw the chick who introduced herself to him as the boy's manager, the one with a beauty that could not be hidden by her plain office dress, calmly walking next to the boy under the watchful gaze of everyone in the warehouse and hug his left arm almost burying it between her bosom. Then she dragged him away from Anna to the spot where she stood earlier, the boy did not resist her and followed her lead.

Seeing that Joe's hatred for the boy turned into worship, he began to idolize the boy. If not for the life-and-death nature of the circumstance he was in he would have knelt in front of the boy and begged him to take him as his disciple. If that was not possible just let him rub a little of his luck with women on himself. But for that to happen he would have to survive the duel therefore he calmed himself and continued to sacrifice soul jades to his item card, Gravity Sword, nonstop. So that his Sword Spirit does not lack soul energy in its battle against Corey.

Susan's action was bold but graceful, she did not confront Anna or her young lover about the kiss nor did she blame them for it. She forgave the non-consensual kiss that Anna forced on her young love as if it was a casual flirting between friends or colleagues or an overly friendly greeting while using this opportunity to show Anna her hold over the boy and make a resounding statement, 'You need a kiss to get his attention, all I need is a touch to get his attention.'

Everyone present might think Susan was not affected by Anna's blatant display of affection by her calm and collected reaction to it, but only I knew the truth. It was all an act, everyone fell for her act, I don't blame them she even had me fooled. When she buried my left arm in her bosom, I felt like I was in bliss feeling the warmth and softness on both sides of my arm.

So I followed her without any resistance while sniffing her perfume but after she dragged me aside from Anna her grip on my arms tightened. It was cute to watch her try squeezing/twisting my arm but it was clear to me that she was not okay with Anna kissing and even blamed me a little for not stopping Anna.

Not getting the reaction she was expecting from Susan, Anna was frustrated. Unable to vent it she glanced at Aba and Agatha planning to make things difficult for them by giving them a hard time about leaving their designated premises, the boy's warehouse, without her authorization. But before she could say anything Aba pointed at her and spoke up for her friend, "Anna, it is wrong to kiss someone else's boyfriend."

"Shorty you have no idea about what is going on here, so do yourself a favor and just shut the hell up before I am forced to help you so that," Anna snapped at Aba for calling the boy Susan's boyfriend. If anything it was Susan who was trying to steal her lover, not the other way around.

Aba was not convinced by what Anna said. Having seen her friend being wronged, she only cared about getting her justice but before she could continue to speak up about it, Agatha closed Aba's mouth getting the hint that the boy, Susan, and Anna shared a very complicated relationship.

Seeing Aba stand up for her, Susan was touched and felt that Aba was of genuine heart and simple-minded with one-dimensional thoughts. Susan felt lucky for having found a friend in such a person.

Corey gritted her teeth seeing the actions of her big sis Susan. She did not understand how blinded was her big sis that she would disregard what happened right in front of her eyes. How could she still care for the boy after seeing him enjoy a kiss with another woman? The more Corey thought about this the more enraged she became and then glancing at the boy with a gaze filled with malice she thought, 'It's all because of him, he must have used some dark magic on mother causing her to be smitten by him.'

'Corey, get your head in the duel, if you can't even defeat this sword spirit then you can never defeat him,' Park motivated Corey, reminding her of her worst fear. Him forcing himself on their mother while Corey helplessly watched from the side, unable to stop him because she wasn't strong enough.

"Ahhh!" Picturing her worst fear Corey cried out loud, revealing the rage and agony hidden in her heart to the world. Which managed to gather everyone's attention back at the life-and-death duel.

With Anna's bold display of passion, everyone had forgotten about the life-and-death duel between Corey and Joe. Even Joe and Corey, the combatants themselves had almost forgotten that they were in the middle of a life-and-death duel. Anna's action and Susan's reaction to that were just too controversial to be ignored. Even Sword Spirit was on guard seeing two new strong card apprentices suddenly arrive not knowing if they would interfere with the duel. Well, Anna did interfere with the duel, but not the way the sword spirit feared but by stealing the spotlight from the duel right when the fight was getting interesting.
