She did not doubt Zayn at all because her family ran the Warrior Protection Group. She long since heard of his great reputation. She admired him very much, especially after witnessing how he fought. She knew that Zayn, with his sharp hearing, would certainly be able to hear the two women’s conversation no matter how soft they spoke. It made her feel embarrassed and angry. Hence, she glared at the two women ferociously and said, “Mr. Larson is my idol. If you still continue to badmouth him, I’m going to be angry!”“Ivanka, you’re…”“Why are you getting angry? We’re only advising you for your own good…”They were planning on commenting further, but they saw the seriousness in Ivanka’s eyes and knew that she was infuriated, so they did not have the courage to say anything more. Their expressions remained doubtful, and they refused to believe that Zayn was a skilled fighter. They still thought of him as a swindler. Zayn felt indifferent to the situation, not because he was shamele
With both of them in agreement, the two women began making a plan. Over at Zayn’s side, he followed Ivanka into the venue. He had no choice but to acknowledge that Ivanka was rather well-regarded there. As soon as she showed up, she immediately drew the attention of many. “Look, Ivanka’s here…”“Whoa, Ivanka looks ravishing tonight.”“Of course. Ivanka has always been one of the prettiest in our circle of friends.”“Huh, who is that dude standing next to Ivanka? He doesn’t look familiar and I haven’t seen him around. Do any of you know him?”“I’ve never seen him before. Moreover, he doesn’t look like he’s from our circle. He’s so average and he’s dressed in such cheap clothes. What’s wrong with him?”“Fuck, look at how Ivanka is being so respectful to him. What the heck is going on?”As Zayn walked along the way, he heard many criticisms made toward him. He said to Ivanka, “It seems that your friends aren’t very welcoming of me.”Ivanka immediately said, “That’s not the
There was a spatter of applause from them and they said “Welcome. We’ve heard so much about you,” in an indulgent manner. Zayn came to realize that these people were not from the martial arts world so they did not know him. His interest diminished substantially. He waved his hand to stop Ivanka from speaking after noticing that she was about to say more. He said, “It’s okay. They’re not from the martial arts world, so it’s not necessary to introduce me to them.”Embarrassed, Ivanka immediately said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Larson. I didn’t expect it to turn out like this.”Zayn would not lower himself to the level of a young woman, so he shook his head and said with a smile, “I’m here tonight because I wish to meet your father.”Ivankan’s eyes dimmed for a moment upon hearing that. She muttered softly to herself, “Only to meet my father?”“Hmm? What did you say again?”Ivanka hastily shook her head and said, “Nothing, nothing.”Zayn noticed that Ivanka was behaving strangely, but h
He looked to be extremely respectful and sincere. He had the bearing of a junior apologizing and seeking forgiveness from a senior. Everyone at the scene acquainted with him was shocked, especially those from his social circle. They were staring in bewilderment and assumed that their eyes were playing tricks on them. One should know that Jean was not just anyone. Apart from being powerful, Jean was very arrogant, so they had never seen him being so respectful toward someone. It would be fine if the person was a renowned figure, but the man before them looked very young. In fact, he looked even younger than Jean so what made him apologize to the stranger in such a grand manner?One had no choice but to acknowledge that Jean was so good at appearing sincere that there was no flaw to be found in his performance. Even Ivanka, who stood next to him, was deceived. Indeed, she was delighted to see him so contrite.Given Jean’s character, she had been slightly worried that Jean would n
Still, he found an opportunity to do so by seizing Zayn’s power!If he could kill Zayn with the poison, Zayn’s exuberant power would certainly be transferred to him as it was supposed to be. He figured he would certainly be as good as Zayn if he was in possession of the power. The thought alone left him extremely excited. Unfortunately, he never expected that Zayn had his scheme all figured out. Moreover, his poison was entirely ineffective on a man like Zayn. Instead, he would be the one to come out worse after this encounter. After taking the glass, Zayn cracked a smile after. “It seems that you’ve repented and reformed earnestly. That's an admirable achievement, so I shall forgive you.”“Thank you, Mr. Larson!” Jean spoke respectfully with a relieved yet excited expression. He then stared straight at Zayn so he could watch the man gulp down the drink with his own eyes!However, he was disappointed to find that Zayn did not drink it immediately after taking the glass. In
Jean was finally relieved after seeing Zayn gulp down the poisoned drink!He felt the weight on his chest lifted!He could not stop himself from cracking a proud smile. Zayn was doomed and his plan was a success!‘Hmph. So what if you’re an invincibilis fighter, the chosen one of this generation? I’m still going to kill you. When you’re dead, your power is going to be channeled to me! After that, I’m going to take your place and become the chosen one of this era, hah-hah-hah…’Jean was so delighted that his entire person flushed in a sickly way. Next to Zayn, Ivanka clapped and said, “It’s great that the misunderstanding has already been resolved. Mr. Larson, the dance is about to begin. Would you like to dance with me?”She looked at Zayn in anticipation. Zayn placed down the glass, shook his head and said, “It’s fine. I’m not good at dancing.”Ivanka said, “I can teach you. With your coordination, you’ll certainly be able to pick it up quickly!”She extended her hand towar
Ivanka hastily shook her head. Her face blushed even more when she felt Zayn’s breath on her ear. “No, no. I’m only nervous.”“Ah, is that so?” Zayn chuckled and began to move his feet to the rhythm of the music. Ivanka had a charming figure and was a real beauty, but Zayn did not feel any feelings for her because he had already encountered so many beautiful women, making him resistant to her charms.Still, It was a very pleasurable experience to be dancing with a woman like Ivanka. As he danced, he projected his consciousness and detected Jean’s emotions. The man was jealous, furious, agitated, secretly joyous, but slightly puzzled at the same time. Yes, Jean found it rather strange because Zayn was still all fine ten minutes after drinking the poison. He wondered why he was not showing any signs of discomfort yet. Generally, the effect of the poison would have been apparent already, and Zayn would have been in pain. Instead, he was perfectly fine. Jean felt restless all o
Hearing Jean’s remarks, the crowd abruptly came to realize that he had poisoned Zayn’s drink!Moreover, it was strong enough to kill a skilled fighter. Ivanka’s eyes widened in surprise. Seeing Jean’s manic appearance, she was confused as to why he would do such a thing !Zayn was the most outstanding man who could bring the most hope to the whole of Rheasia. Even though she did not know about him before, she knew that Zayn was Rheasia’s hope after learning about his deeds. She was certain that he would rise to be the highest authority in Rheasia. Even so, Jean had tried to poison a man like that. Could he actually bring himself to do that?When she recovered from her surprise, she immediately walked over to give Jean a ferocious slap and scolded aloud, “Jean, you’re a beast! Mr. Larson is the third ever invincibilis fighter in Rheasia and is a great hope to the nation ! How could you poison him?!”Ivanka flew into a great rage. She did not have feelings for Jean beforehand,
