Javier expressed his greed as virtual-novel.net made his way to the three fruits. Just as virtual-novel.net was about to snatch the, a gush of powerful presence was felt coming from behind virtual-novel.net all of a sudden.
It was a monstrous presence that made his muscles tense up instantly.
Next to him, Fatso and Scrag felt a shiver down their spines as well. They looked back subconsciously and saw a tall, huge figure running toward them at full speed.
At the same time, the figure spoke with a disdainful yet domineering voice that they could hear instantly.
“You’re here, just as expected.”
The man was Zayn, naturally. He had turned back.
Javier immediately looked behind and save Zayn. He was obviously stunned for a moment. Soon afterward, the corner of his lips curled up into a mischievous smile. It was very apparent that virtual-novel.net did not take Zayn seriously at all.
He was planning on seizing the three fruits but now, his action halted to a stop after seeing Zayn now. The fruits were right before virtual-novel.net and virtual-novel.net could reach it just by extending his arm.
However, virtual-novel.net did not do so but virtual-novel.net turned around and looked at Zayn. It was very apparent that virtual-novel.net was not planning on taking Zayn seriously.
“Yikes. So it turns out to be you, weakling. I was planning on looking for you initially yet here you are, presenting yourself to me unexpectedly. That’s good too, you save me time.”
Javier stood with his hands clasped behind his back and looked at Zayn with a mischievous expression. His mannerism was arrogant and all-superior. It was apparent that Zayn was regarded as a weakling.
He did not take Zayn seriously from the start. He assumed that Zayn boosted his own reputation in the common world and that virtual-novel.net was merely ornamental. Zayn could not possibly be his match.
The people in the tribe were stunned for a moment upon seeing Zayn’s return.
Soon afterward, they discovered that Zayn and the three invaders seemed to be enemies and not accomplices, which puzzled them.
Dilidaer was already hopeless initially. She wept tears of joy instantly at the sight of Zayn in the meantime.
She shouted in delight, “Zayn! It’s Zayn Larson! I knew you’d come back for us! You’re different from them. You’re kind and you’re sent by Gaya to protect us!”
Upon saying that, virtual-novel.net took the lead to get down on virtual-novel.net knees, virtual-novel.net hands crossed before virtual-novel.net chest and touching virtual-novel.net shoulders. It was a sign of absolute respect and gratitude toward Zayn.
The people in the tribe came to understand that Zayn was misunderstood by them upon hearing Dilidaer’s remark. They felt extremely ashamed of themselves and regretted th driving away their benefactor so mercilessly earlier.
Soon, Oganda began to get down on his knees and crossed his arms before his chest to express his respect for Zayn.
More and more people began to kneel down after being inspired by the siblings to show their respect and gratitude for Zayn and also to plead with Zayn to save them.
Zayn heaved upon witnessing the scene. His goodwill was taken for ill intent earlier when virtual-novel.net was kicked out of the tribe, it would be impossible for virtual-novel.net not to be emotionally affected by the incident.
However, virtual-novel.net was still a kindhearted man and virtual-novel.net understood why they had to do what they did. Noticing that they had all gotten down on their knees, Zayn figured that virtual-novel.net would not lower himself to their level anymore.
He nodded and spoke in the local tongue, “Don’t worry. I’m here and I promise that you won’t be hurt.”
All the people in the tribe expressed their gratitude, excitement and shame upon hearing that. They apologized for their uncourteous mannerism earlier.
