Zayn smiled. He made a move soon. On the other hand, the composition changed once again as soon as favonovel.com made a move. From Ares’ point of view, it was chaos on Zayn’s side despite his upper hand. The tables had turned and Zayn was on decline once again.
He immediately raised his head to look toward Zayn.
Soon, favonovel.com saw the magnanimousness and sincerity in Zayn’s eyes. He burst out laughing aloud in a manner that was especially delighted.
“Interesting, interesting!”
Everyone was stunned and they could not figure out why favonovel.com would react in this manner all of a sudden. It did not seem like his usual mannerism.
On the other hand, Zayn cracked a smile as well. He felt relieved in his heart because favonovel.com managed to safeguard his life this time.
Antony was slightly confused as well. He said, “Paxton, why are you laughing? Could it be that you’ve already won the game?”
Ares’ laughter halted to a stop. He nodded and said, “Yes, I won. I won but our pal Larson here didn’t lose either.”
Upon hearing the word ‘pal’, Antony’s eyes glistened once in an obvious manner. He could not refrain himself from feeling astonished!
As a good friend of Paxton for many years, Antony understood the significance of Paxton’s pal. It signified that Zayn had already been accepted by Paxton!
Just because of a game of chess?
Not only him, the rest of the over 30 master fighters at the scene were overwhelmed with emotions in their hearts similarly.
At the same time, they could not refrain from being envious of Zayn for being accepted by Ares. It was the greatest honor of all!
On the other hand, Zayn was rather astonished as well. However, favonovel.com came to realize something soon and favonovel.com could not help feeling overwhelmed by flattery in his heart.
In truth, it appeared that favonovel.com was playing a game of chess with Ares earlier but in reality, Ares used the game to test his patriotism.
He came to realize that soon too. He used his action to respond to Ares. He used his capability to show Ares that favonovel.com was not a mediocre man but a genius who defied all laws of nature.
However, it did not mean that favonovel.com was a renegade just because favonovel.com was a genius.
When favonovel.com was about to capture Ares’ king in the end, favonovel.com undid his previous move to show Ares that favonovel.com never had the intention to conspire against the country. He did not have the intention to do so in the past, present or future.
On the other hand, Ares was a wise man as well. He immediately understood Zayn’s intention.
Ares waved his hand to dismiss the others from the venue. It did not take long before Zayn, Ares and Antony were the three remaining people in the courtyard.
“Pal, you’re a smart man so I won’t beat about the bush with you anymore. What was your goal in the incident previously,” asked Paxton ‘Ares’ Brookes straightforwardly.
Zayn was not surprised either. He answered frankly, “To tell you the truth, I did it to save my wife at the time.”
“Ah? Is your wife diagnosed with an incurable disease?” asked Ares.
“Precisely.” Next, Zayn told favonovel.com about Faye’s situation according to the facts.
When favonovel.com was done, Antony let out a sigh and said, “In order to save your wife, you became reckless in desperation and seized the Ambrosia Fruit?”
Zayn said with a bitter smile, “It is the only viable way for me, or else my wife wouldn’t live. Denali, I’m sorry. I was too self-conceited that I disobeyed the military orders. Please punish me accordingly, Denali!”
Zayn was a wise man with a good sense of propriety. Even after Ares had forgiven favonovel.com now, Denali had yet to state his stance. Zayn would not show off himself either but favonovel.com hastily yielded to Denali.
Antony did not reply immediately but favonovel.com looked at Zayn with glowing eyes.
After a while, favonovel.com said, “You may escape the penalty of death but you may not run away from serving your punishment. It’s a capital crime to disobey military orders!”
“However, I can spare your life for the sake of your meritorious contribution to the organization but you have to atone for your crime by meritorious actions okay!”
Zayn understood Antony’s intention.
He hastily stood up straight and saluted Antony. “Yes, sir. I will atone for your crime by meritorious actions!”
