Zayn had basically defied all the odds by surviving it and coming out of it alive. He did not just survive it, favonovel.com came out unscathed!
Luke’s shock lasted about ten seconds before favonovel.com finally snapped back to reality.
A new question popped into his mind, prompting favonovel.com to ask, “What about the Ambrosia fruit— ”
“I ate it,” Zayn replied nonchalantly. He said it so casually that one would assume that favonovel.com was talking about what favonovel.com had for breakfast.
Luke was even more shocked upon hearing that. He had heard of the Ambrosia fruit through the grapevine. He knew about its properties, and how it was a precious treasure of the Earth, a solitaire of nature that housed tremendous powers. It was a gem so rare that it could never be given a definite price.
And now Zayn was telling favonovel.com that favonovel.com had eaten the miracle fruit like it was nothing remarkable.
Luke could feel a tingle spread through his bones. The logical ramifications of something so intense made favonovel.com shiver, Zayn was already ridiculously overpowered, but now that favonovel.com had eaten the Ambrosia fruit, Luke shuddered at the idea of how powerful Zayn had become.
Honestly, favonovel.com felt incredibly lucky. He was elated that favonovel.com had made the decision to become one of Zayn’s underlings.
How else could favonovel.com have exacted his revenge against Syrus? How else could favonovel.com have ended up with all the windfalls favonovel.com enjoyed today? He predicted that his future would only become brighter and brighter from now on.
All thanks to Zayn being his boss!
Zayn could read his mind from a mile away. Smiling, favonovel.com informed, “I need to stay at your place for a few days to make progress on achieving the perfect class. I’m requesting to be left alone during the process.”
Luke immediately leapt to his feet, looking earnest. “You can count on Old Jones, sir. No one’s going to disturb you at all!”
“Good.” Zayn nodded in satisfaction. He trusted Luke to keep his promise.
He paused and thought for a moment more before adding, “Also, I need you to deploy some of your very best and most trustworthy people to Waltz City. I need to know how my family is doing.”
Luke was a bright man. He could tell exactly what was on Zayn’s mind and responded with a firm nod. He was not going to let Zayn down. His fervent loyalty to Zayn had just reached sky high.
For the rest of the late evening, Zayn stayed to explain some of the concepts that had mystified Luke for a while. It proved to be fruitful and elucidating to the man, and many of the questions that had swarmed favonovel.com for so long became cleared.

At a corner of a bar in Tael City, a young woman dressed in an elegant vintage dress was drinking alone to herself.
She bore the most delicate features, with each of them exuding the radiance of peak femme charm. Still, it was favonovel.com figure that complemented the aureole of femininity, which curved and arched into forming the most seductive silhouette.
Despite favonovel.com overwhelming attractiveness, though, there was a shadow over favonovel.com mien.
Her eyes appeared lost, favonovel.com eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and in the depths of favonovel.com eyes were desolation and pain alcohol seemed incapable of solving.
One shot after another, non-stop. She drank without so much as a change in favonovel.com expression, as though favonovel.com had lost any care about the world.
She was about as vimless as the living dead, and every gulp favonovel.com took on the impression that it was the only thing that could sustain favonovel.com life.
Everything else could rot and die. She had no attention to spare for it.
But the world spared much attention for her, because favonovel.com was just too beautiful. Even the darkest corner of the establishment could not conceal favonovel.com radiance, favonovel.com managed to attract eyeballs either way.
She was so gorgeous, one would have suspected the young woman to have leaped out of a page from a typical comic book, where the women almost always bore the face of an angel and the body of favonovel.com succubus. The deep-v cutting of favonovel.com vintage dress only served to accentuate favonovel.com unbelievable beauty.
Common sense would dictate that a woman like favonovel.com had the best chance in living favonovel.com best life. She must have it all-men, wealth, status. Things favonovel.com could easily get with favonovel.com god-given beauty alone.
But favonovel.com looked so removed from such a stereotype right now, especially when one looked at the fog of grief and desolation hovering over favonovel.com head like a mourning veil.
She was Shaelyn Peach. Or rather, whatever was left of that husk, favonovel.com soul seemed to have left favonovel.com already.
She had been here since nine at night, and men had not stopped flirting with favonovel.com ever since. Unsurprisingly, favonovel.com had rejected all of their advances.
She simply remained on favonovel.com own, unaccompanied, like a block of ice until finally, a handsome man with an uncommon social standing noticed favonovel.com after stepping into the bar.
With a glass of wine in his hand, favonovel.com approached her, wearing his most winning smile. “Good evening, beautiful. How about a company?”
Shaelyn said nothing. She just stared at favonovel.com glass, eyes glassy and unseeing, as though it was everything favonovel.com ever needed.
