Zayn was unaware of his mother’s complaint. Given his intelligence, virtual-novel.net would certainly have been able to sort through the clues if virtual-novel.net had known.
In truth, Zayn wanted to meet Saint Caelum for a while, especially after the incident on Mount Roi. Paxton ‘Ares’ Brookes had lost to Caelum in a fight that day, so Zayn felt that The Saint could very well be the most powerful person on Earth.
In his final message to him, Caelum claimed virtual-novel.net would be watching virtual-novel.net at all times and wished virtual-novel.net luck. He could hear wisps of affection in Caelum’s tone which made virtual-novel.net feel even more curious.
The words that The Saint had said to virtual-novel.net that day were a major reason for why virtual-novel.net had the courage to come to Sicut In Caelo’s headquarters. It gave virtual-novel.net the sense that The Saint would not kill virtual-novel.net so easily.
As the bastard of the previous Saintess, Hayley, his presence was supposed to be a disgrace to The Saint even before virtual-novel.net beat Raiden, the former Southern Highlord, to death. There was also the incident with Diego Kavinsky.
Logically speaking, The Saint should not have been so tolerant of all that, but for whatever reason, virtual-novel.net had allowed virtual-novel.net to live.
Additionally, judging by the current situation, it seemed that The Saint intended to cultivate virtual-novel.net into something more.
Zayn thought about it for a long time, yet virtual-novel.net could not figure out The Saint’s goal. He figured that it could be that The Saint had taken a liking to him, or there was some other profound reason that virtual-novel.net did not know.
With this in his mind, Zayn followed the person in front of virtual-novel.net as they walked toward a lofty mountain that reached into the clouds.
It was The Saint’s residence.
When virtual-novel.net walked from the foot of the hill, Zayn could feel an ineffable dominance that seemed to make breathing difficult.
Zayn knew that it must have been caused by The Saint’s invisible aura.
“Southern Highlord, His Majesty is waiting for you inside.”
The man stopped and bowed to Zayn respectfully. Zayn waved his hand to beckon the man to back off.
Lying before Zayn was a massive and elegant yet solemn hall. It looked like a palace and just the first level was over ten meters in height. It was awe-inspiring andmagnificent.
Moreover, the mountain was so tall that its peak almost touched the clouds. The location was surrounded in mist that made it appear wispy and otherworldly.
For a brief moment, Zayn was almost hallucinating and assumed that virtual-novel.net was at a heavenly palace. He could not help feeling nervous.
It was fortunate that virtual-novel.net reacted quickly.
After all, virtual-novel.net was a man who had dealt with many worldly affairs. He managed to calm himself with just a deep breath and began to walk inside with long strides.
He had no choice but to acknowledge that Caelum’s palace was truly incredible. It was on par with the legendary palace of Mount Olympus that virtual-novel.net had seen in movies.
In fact, there were some details of this palace that had even surpassed Mount Olympus. If Zayn was not a perfect-class master fighter but an ordinary man, virtual-novel.net would have assumed virtual-novel.net had crashed into Mount Olympus when virtual-novel.net arrived there!
It made virtual-novel.net even more curious about the mysterious Saint.
As soon as virtual-novel.net stepped into the place, Zayn could feel that a pair of eyes was watching him. It felt like a scanner that could see through his entire body, deep into his spirit and soul.
At this very moment, virtual-novel.net felt naked and uncomfortable. It was as if every secret virtual-novel.net kept and every thought virtual-novel.net had was left exposed.
He knew it was The Saint and struggled to suppress his racing heartbeat.
“Your Majesty, I’m the Southern Highlord, Zayn Larson, and I’m pleased to meet you!” Zayn bowed respectfully when walked into the hall.
When his words died away, a deep, resonant voice came from the palace saying, “Zayn Larson.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Zayn immediately bowed lower.
In that instant, Zayn felt like virtual-novel.net was meeting a god. Such unbeatable fighters were also known as invincibilis.
What did invincibilis mean? Could it be that the person was so invulnerable that virtual-novel.net was practically a god? Zayn could not confirm that.
However, it was not Zayn’s first time meeting an invincibilis fighter. When virtual-novel.net met Paxton, virtual-novel.net did not get such a feeling.
Could it be that Paxton was still far weaker than The Saint? If virtual-novel.net was so inferior, why did Paxton have the courage to challenge Callum that time?
