This was a true milestone for her. But looking at Luo Geng's expression, Maiya couldn't tell if he'd believed her.
Luo Geng was still looking down at her, his thick brows and red lips perfectly still. A faint, bluish-black shadow was brushed beneath his eyes.
Warily, she took a step back, discreetly aiming the mechanism forward.
If Luo Geng really decided to attack, even if Maiya couldn't match him physically, she was confident she could use her skills and Mechanical Techniques to make him suffer. As for whether he could catch her in the end, that would come down to luck.
Luo Geng said nothing, sizing Maiya up from head to toe, as if he too were weighing the consequences of making a move.
