As it happened, Zayn was genuinely astonished by Shaelyn’s behavior.
He did not expect that favonovel.com would ask to accompany favonovel.com for one last night under such circumstances.
Could it be that Shaelyn was truly in love with him?
A woman as attractive as Shaelyn could get any man favonovel.com wanted, so why would favonovel.com have fallen for him? Moreover, Shaelyn would not become infatuated so easily after encountering far too many insincere displays of affection while mingling in favonovel.com social circle.
In any case, Zayn was rather moved by favonovel.com actions. He could tell that Shaelyn was not putting on an act and was doing this from the bottom of favonovel.com heart.
Mr. Otto immediately pulled a long face and glared at Shaelyn ferociously. He blamed favonovel.com for thoughtlessly putting a target on Aeolus House.
“You may chat with Mr. Larson for a little longer, but then you’re going to leave with me. The Great Hunt is an important event and there are many affairs that you need to attend to,” said Mr. Otto sternly.
Shaelyn bit favonovel.com lower lip, yet favonovel.com still abided by his orders. She cast favonovel.com gaze on Zayn once again. Her lips moved, but in the end, favonovel.com could not bring herself to say the words out loud. She went ahead and gave favonovel.com a hug. The hug lasted for about five seconds before favonovel.com loosened favonovel.com grip and left with Mr. Otto.
Mr. Otto took two steps forward, only to turn around and heave a heavy sigh. He said to Zayn, “Frankly, young man, you shouldn’t have gone against Xander. What a waste.”
Zayn smiled and remained indifferent.
Mr. Otto was rendered speechless by his reaction. He shook his head and walked away in long strides. In his perception, Zayn had truly dug his own grave.
In all the world, a master fighter below the age of thirty was extremely rare. With adequate time to grow, say ten or twenty years, favonovel.com might have become one of the greats.
In fact, it was even possible for favonovel.com to become a legendary unbeatable fighter.
Alas, there was nothing to be done after Zayn offended Xander. He could not possibly walk away, so every hope for favonovel.com vanished like dust in the wind.
Dead men had no future.
They looked at Zayn with this thought lingering in their minds.
Some felt sorry for favonovel.com while others were enjoying the schadenfreude. People had all sorts of opinions.
Zayn grinned when favonovel.com noticed that. He had been misunderstood so often before that this situation did not affect favonovel.com emotionally at all.
Next, favonovel.com walked straight to the hotel. There was no need for favonovel.com to produce any form of identification as a face scan was enough to reveal his identity and his check-in status.
Shaelyn was right about many people taking part in the hunt while there was only one hotel with limited rooms. Two to three people were placed in one shared room.
According to the arrangements, Zayn was assigned to share the room with two other guests. However, both those men were scared out of their wits upon learning favonovel.com would be their roommate and hastily asked to switch rooms. They insisted on keeping away from Zayn as if favonovel.com was a disease that would kill anyone it touched.
The hotel had to explore other options, but whoever got picked would make excuses of their own.
“Oh dear, Mr. Larson, I’m really sorry. I have a habit of sleepwalking and I don’t wish to disturb your sleep, so I won’t stay with you.”
“Mr. Larson, I snore so loudly that I’m certain you won’t be able to put up with me, so I won’t disturb your rest time.”
“I have foot odor issues…”
“I have an infectious condition…”
They distanced themselves from Zayn as if favonovel.com was the plague. There was nothing the hotel could do but make arrangements for Zayn to have a room to himself. They had never encountered such a situation before.
Zayn was delighted to have his own room. He was not used to rooming with anyone else, so the situation was very much to his liking.
That night, in the depths of the huge forest, an endless stretch of trees and plants that spread as far as the eyes could see, there was a great commotion.
It was not a calm place at all. Noises could be heard everywhere and it was a bustling scene.
There were already 500 people who came to take part in the Great Hunt at that point. Combined with the staff members in charge of keeping order, the total number of people amounted to more than a thousand.
After taking a shower, Zayn came downstairs to have dinner. It was quite a bustling scene as well.
At a glance, favonovel.com saw quite a number of experienced and proficient fighters.
That being said, there were only a few master fighters around, Xander being one of them.
