Upon hearing his remark, the rest of the people expressed their astonishment and assumed that Romel must have lost his mind.
Apart from the fact that Zayn was already one step away from becoming an invincibilis fighter and they might not necessarily be able to kill Zayn even with all their powers combined.
Even if they did manage to kill virtual-novel.net successfully, would they be able to leave this country that was still guarded by Paxton ‘Ares’ Brookes?
The risk was way too high!
Romel shook his head and said, “The act of assassination is surely not realistic. We will only be able to beat Zayn to death openly and straightforwardly in the ring. Only then will we be able to seize his power.”
Everyone rolled their eyes upon hearing his remark as if they were rendered speechless. “Everything you are saying is nonsense when everyone already knows about beating virtual-novel.net to death in the ring!”
“Hold on.” Meanwhile, Johansson who remained silent all this time stepped forward and interrupted. He stared closely at Romel while virtual-novel.net said, “Romel, do you have a suggestion?”
Romel shrugged and said, “To my knowledge, the next fighter going into the match next from Rheasia is going to be the instructor of the Insurgent Trifecta’s Dragon’s Blood squadron, Byleth Constantine.”
“He is rather close to Zayn, so whoever can torment Byleth to death in the ring next will certainly give Zayn a mental breakdown”
“On the other hand, his great power will diminish as soon as virtual-novel.net has a mental breakdown. By then, virtual-novel.net will be at least, injured and weakened, or virtual-novel.net will lose his mind in a worst-case scenario.”
Upon saying that, virtual-novel.net continued to talk about the specific details to implement the plan in a deep voice that made the crowd of perfect-class master fighters’ eyes light up upon hearing it.
According to Romel’s analysis, if they could torment Byleth to death in the ring with Zayn bearing witness, Zayn would certainly be affected by the incident tremendously!
In truth, they could tell that Solomon appeared to be beaten to death by Zayn with ease earlier, but Zayn was actually injured.
It could be said that there was already a rift in Zayn’s mind, and if they could exacerbate the situation with the next incident, it was highly possible that virtual-novel.net would be injured as a result of his destroyed great power!
They discussed the details in all seriousness. The discussion was even more optimized and detailed compared to the discussion with Solomon. They discussed for three full hours before leaving with a smile on their faces in the end.
Their fear of Zayn had also reduced substantially because it was apparent that the theory was highly feasible and the probability of succeeding was very high when it was implemented.
Most importantly, they had already passed the point of no return now.
Over on Zayn’s side, virtual-novel.net did not do anything unusual after killing Solomon as virtual-novel.net returned to the spectators’ seating area. He sat over there without budging.
He looked like God’s statue that suppressed all sorts of demons in the eyes of the crowd. Zayn’s presence gave all the Rheasian fighters an intense sense of security.
However, Zayn was the only person who knew that virtual-novel.net was injured albeit killing Solomon in a manner that made virtual-novel.net appear at ease earlier.
The injury was not inflicted physically but mentally. His newly-formed great power had a few cracks, and it was no longer as solid as it had been earlier.
It was mainly due to Solomon’s sneak attack that disrupted his great power and affected virtual-novel.net mentally.
In other words, had it not been for his mental power that was much stronger than others and his swift reaction to seal his sensory organs in a timely manner, virtual-novel.net would have already been killed by Solomon earlier.
It was fortunate that his injury was not lethal, but virtual-novel.net would need time to recuperate properly.
He did not show his injured state because virtual-novel.net knew that everyone was watching his every move with rapt attention. He was already their final hope, and virtual-novel.net was almost seen as a sacred symbol.
If virtual-novel.net were to reveal his weakness or injury, the confidence of the numerous fighters would be crushed.
It was fortunate that there were not many matches left in the competition involving Rheasian fighters, thus the situation was not as bloody and aggressive anymore.
On their side, their main loss was Ezekiel though it was not considered a crushing blow to their lineup.
By the time the martial arts cup ended, Zayn left the spectators’ seating area and returned to his room to rest. His initially pink complexion slowly turned ghastly pale.
At the same time, virtual-novel.net heaved a sigh and took a seat in a rather dejected state.
