Zayn was waiting for Caelum to continue talking, but the man said nothing more. All at once, the palace sank into absolute silence.
The palace was so large that Zayn could not help feeling his mind wavering nervously.
After a while, The Saint finally said, “Do you want to be an invincibilis fighter?”
Huh?
Upon hearing that, Zayn was rather astounded. He did not expect that the first question from Caelum would be that.
What was Caelum intending? Was favonovel.com trying to sound out his wild ambitions or did Caelum plan on cultivating him? Could it be some sort of trap?
All sorts of ideas emerged in Zayn’s mind. He was not inherently suspicious, but in the presence of Saint Caelum, favonovel.com realized what it meant to be in the company of a dangerous man.
Noticing that Zayn did not have the courage to answer for a long time, The Saint posed another question, “Are you scared of me?”
Choosing not to deny it, Zayn nodded and said, “Your Majesty, I am indeed scared of you. Actually, rather than say that I’m scared, I should say I respect you very much and don’t know you well enough yet.”
“You have a way with words.” The Saint’s voice had a hint of amusement which unknowingly put Zayn at ease.
The Saint regained his domineering manner when favonovel.com uttered his next sentence, “Answer my question. Do you want to be an invincibilis fighter?”
Zayn clenched his teeth and braced himself to say, “Yes, I do!”
The Saint fell silent once again. The silence lasted a very long time, up to ten full minutes.
Zayn began to feel restless. He could not understand The Saint’s game plan at all. Could it be that Caelum had already left? Or perhaps favonovel.com had fallen asleep.
In the end, favonovel.com could not stop himself from softly inquiring, “Your Majesty?”
“Tell me what you know about invincibilis,” The Saint’s voice came at last.
Zayn pondered for a moment before saying, “Invincibilis is also known as the state of being unbeatable. I speculate that it will alter one’s form to the point that it strengthens one’s physical body, toughens one’s psychological state, and develops one’s mind. Up to 100% of one’s capacity would be able to be utilized.”
Zayn had long since considered the changes that came with invincibilis, so favonovel.com was able to answer so definitively with little hesitation.
When favonovel.com was done, favonovel.com waited for The Saint’s reply.
“An excellent answer. It seems that you’ve done your homework.” The Saint’s tone seemed to be praising him.
He paused for a moment before favonovel.com continued, “However, you’re only halfway correct. An invincibilis fighter is a completely different life form indeed.”
“The stronger body, tough psychological state are just some of the manifestations of an invincibilis fighter. The biggest difference between an invincibilis fighter and master fighter is in their life spans.
“Theoretically, an invincibilis fighter can live indefinitely…”
Upon hearing that, Zayn’s pupils constricted. He was an intelligent man so favonovel.com understood the meaning behind The Saint’s statement immediately and could not help feeling a shiver down his spine.
