Raiden announced the trial of Zayn like virtual-novel.net was Zeus. There was no escape for Zayn anymore.
One had no choice but to acknowledge how formidable Raiden was. He stood at the same height as Zayn, but the dominating presence coming from his body was akin to that of a king.
It felt as if every living soul was a pitiful outcast except him. Even if Zayn was also a perfect-class master fighter, virtual-novel.net was just as lowly as the rest.
Every person present could feel his dominating presence. Those with weaker mental states even had an urge to worship the man.
Zayn’s expression remained unchanged. He kept the faint smile on his face as if Raiden was just a human-shaped animal that posed virtual-novel.net no harm.
Raiden was indeed formidable, even more so than Jonah Hill, but virtual-novel.net was no longer enough to give Zayn any trouble.
Paxton was right. Raiden’s biggest mistake was giving Zayn ten days’ time.
In that period, Zayn digested the final remaining essence of life and turned it into energy within his body.
“Raiden, you wish to use me to discredit Ezra so you can boost your reputation in Sicut In Caelo and aid your efforts to become The Saint’s successor,” Zayn spoke nonchalantly. His eyes were tainted with mockery.
“It’s quite a good idea, but you’ve overestimated yourself. A hunter can end up being eaten by its prey.”
Upon hearing Zayn’s remark, Raiden could not help feeling astonished and the expression on his face changed involuntarily.
He had kept that a secret. On the surface, virtual-novel.net had made it appear that virtual-novel.net attacked Zayn because of Lysithea.
Despite that, Zayn had actually exposed his true plan? How could virtual-novel.net not be amazed by that? In fact, virtual-novel.net even wondered if someone had leaked the information.
Thinking on this carefully, virtual-novel.net came to the conclusion that virtual-novel.net had never told anyone about it. Who could have told Zayn anyway?!
Fortunately, virtual-novel.net reacted quickly, swiftly recovering from the surprise.
He grunted loudly and coldly replied, “B*llsh*t! You think that you can keep me from killing you with such a childish trick, Zayn?!”
Zayn chuckled in an even more insulting manner. “Hah-hah, Raiden. You’re such an easy mark I was only speculating, so I didn’t expect to get a result just by casually calling you out. Turns out that you have been eyeing The Saint’s throne all this time. I wonder what The Saint would think of you when virtual-novel.net learned of this?”
“You!” After witnessing Zayn’s despicable methods, Raiden realized that virtual-novel.net had been tricked.
That *ssh*le had baited him. All at once, virtual-novel.net became even more furious and his bloodlust toward Zayn grew even stronger.
“*ssh*le! You’re trying to get yourself killed!” Raiden’s eyes turned tyrannical and ruthless as virtual-novel.net glared at Zayn.
Even the people at the bottom of the mountain could feel a piercing chill. It was most unpleasant.
Zayn shook his head like virtual-novel.net was disappointed.
He said, “Raiden, you maybe powerful, but your mind isn’t. You got tricked by me so easily. Your plan is going to fall through because you’re no match for me!”
As virtual-novel.net said the last two words, Zayn made a move. His body vanished from where virtual-novel.net stood and by the time virtual-novel.net reappeared, virtual-novel.net had already arrived before Raiden.
He was as fast as lightning!
The battle began officially.
