Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 557 Protecting yourself Osvaldo didn't speak, he just held her hand tightly, exerting a bit more pressure.

Selena didn't get an answer, so she didn't ask. She just let the man lead her and had a bit of curiosity on her face.

Osvaldo led Selena through the hall and into the backyard. Selena had been in the castle for almost three months, but she hadn't really been anywhere except the hall, bedroom, and garden. It wasn't until now that she realized there was a whole other world inside the castle, so big that it hardly seemed like a human-made garden.

There was also an underground basement. A billiard table, an armory, a punching bag, a fencing room, a training room...

everything you could imagine.

Selena looked at these things with fascination. This was obviously Osvaldo's private domain. Why had he brought her here? Osvaldo pushed open a door and revealed a changing room. He turned around and pinched Selena's slender neck. "Go change your clothes.” Selena narrowed her eyes slightly. "Are you going to teach me?" Osvaldo held onto her lips and suddenly smiled. "You are quite good, we can't waste your talent.” The most important thing was that her physical condition was too poor. Every time he held her, he was afraid that he would accidentally break her waist.

Selena naturally couldn't guess the man's true thoughts. Although she had a suspicion of having done something wrong and getting caught, she was more excited.

Selena licked her lips and walked into the changing room, closing the door behind her. She was born weak and had been plagued with serious illnesses, making her unsuitable for martial arts. But Selena's physique was much stronger than hers. After being reborn, she had thought about this aspect. After all, no matter how good a protection network was, it was not as reliable as learning it herself.

However, she had never found a suitable opportunity. She didn't expect Osvaldo to take the initiative to bring her here, so she naturally had to seize the opportunity.

Selena changed into a white training suit and walked out.

Osvaldo took off his jacket and stood outside in a black silk shirt. His sleeves were loosely rolled up, revealing his wrists. The dark blue cufflinks shimmered with a precious light.

The man's face was extremely beautiful, although he had no expression, his delicate eyes still kept people's attention.

The top two buttons of the shirt were unbuttoned, revealing a glimpse of the collarbone. When he heard a sound, he turned his gaze directly to Selena.

The training suit was obviously tailored for her, not too big or too small, just right. However, Selena didn't know how to tie the belt, and her hair was loose. Compared to her usual self-contained and elegant appearance, she had a rare casual charm now.

Osvaldo's cold and indifferent expression added a touch of dark color. He walked over naturally and tied Selena's hair up with a hairband, revealing her entire face, which made her look even more beautiful.

He took the belt from her hand, leaned slightly, and wrapped his hands around her slender waist, slowly and calmly tying the belt for her.

He was very tall, and Selena only reached his chin. From his perspective, he could see Leia's delicate neck, which was so tender that the faint veins could be clearly seen.

After preparing for the exercises, Osvaldo took a few steps back and a smile appeared in his eyes. "You can choose any weapon you want. If you can make me take a step back today, then you pass the test." Although the man's voice was gentle, Miss Riddle was successfully provoked.

A strong desire to win appeared on her pure face, and her gaze became sharp, no longer confused or absent-minded.

It was the stupidest way to confront a man like Osvaldo head-on.

Selena took a whip from the nearby shelf and swung it heavily.

The whip made a sharp sound in the air and fiercely hit the man's neck.

Osvaldo chuckled.

He's pretty tough! Without seeing how he moved, the whip that Selena had thrown out was easily intercepted by the man.

With a slight force from Osvaldo, Selena hadn't even had time to react before she stumbled forward and fell directly into his arms.

Osvaldo caught the slender body, raised his hand to pinch her chin, looked into her eyes, and a hazy and cold killing intent flashed in his eyes. "Selena, remember, the only purpose of everything you've learned is to protect yourself." "Everyone, including me, can be injured or even killed, except for you, understand?" Selena fell into the man's arms unexpectedly and before she could speak, she heard the man's cold and decisive voice, clear and slow, entering her ears.

Selena was suddenly frozen.

These words... her comrades who died on the battlefield said the same to her.

All of them could die, only she had to survive! But she still died...

She didn't die at the hands of the enemy.

She died at the hands of her closest person.

She would never forget the pain and despair of the cold blade piercing her heart.

A murderous intent appeared in Selena'’s eyes, and she pushed Osvaldo away and swung her whip again.

The long whip attacked the man's vital points like a snake, but each time it was easily avoided by him.

No matter how fierce her attack was, no matter how tricky the angle was, the man remained motionless, not even a hair out of place.

In the quiet basement, the sound of the whip dancing through the air filled the room.

Selena was sweating profusely, her clothes and hair soaked with sweat, and she was panting heavily from exhaustion.

But her eyes were terrifyingly bright and focused.

She stared at the elegant and refined man opposite her without moving, like a young predator just learning to hunt, everything was new, except for the inexhaustible resilience in her grip.

No matter how many times her whip was intercepted by the other party or how many times she was pulled over by him, she didn't care at all.

She just focused on finding the other party's weakness and then -- Strike with a fatal blow! But Osvaldo clearly had no intention of going easy on her.

Until Selena's whip was broken, she not only failed to make Osvaldo take a step back, but didn't even mess up his clothes.

If it were anyone else, they would have probably cried in despair long ago, but Selena just dropped the broken whip and casually drew out the fencing sword from the rack.

The bright and cold light reflected Selena's dark and cold eyes.

Osvaldo calculated Selena's limit in his mind.

Her stamina had long exceeded her limit, but her unwillingness to admit defeat was so strong that it was terrifying.

Fencing was a compulsory course for the nobility, and Selena naturally learned it.

Her skills were not even low.

She was undoubtedly a very intelligent person who knew that stamina was her weakness, so she used every ounce of it where it mattered.

Although she didn't make Osvaldo take a step back, the number of times she was pulled into his arms began to gradually decrease.

At the moment when it became dark, Selena's willpower also reached its limit.

The bamboo sword in her hand fell to the ground, and she fell down as well.

Osvaldo caught her just in time...
