Semua Bab When Life Takes A Turn: Bab 1291 - Bab 1300

Zayn stopped dead in his tracks. He was definitely the one at fault in this case—he really messed up big time. He hurt both Lysithea and his mother. Sighing heavily, he asked, “Is… Mother alright?”“You’re lucky she’s fine,” Lysithea snapped, “I’d maim otherwise!”Zayn went silent, letting only the howling wind speak for him. The gust had turned into a gale as it ferried their exchange, but for some reason, the words only arrived in a voice no louder than a whisper.Zayn asked again, very softly, “When can I see her again?”It was the mother of all depressing topics of conversation. Zayn had naively thought that achieving the perfect class would be enough to save his mother, but he knew better now. It was still a far cry from the minimum competency—he would not be able to rescue his mother if Ezra Sword stood in his way, let alone the Saint of Sicut in Caelo, who was rumored to have already achieved the legendary state of Invincibilis.“The day when you achieved Invincibilis, mayb

Antony dodged the question with an implicative one of his own. “Tell me, Brooks. Do you remember how old you were when you first broke into the ranks of the perfect class?”Recollection bubbled beneath Paxton’s eyes. They twinkled and glinted like embers, reflecting the light from his bygone, fiery youth. “It’s been thirty years since I attained the perfect class, man. I was thirty-five,” he sighed.He finished his sentence with a small smile—just curved enough to hint at his satisfaction. Attaining the perfect class at such a young age was nothing to be sneered at and he knew it.“Thirty-f**king-five! Man, you’re here showing the world what being gifted really means, don’t you? How many experts out there brokered all their might and effort without ever gaining purchase into that level? But you—well, you did it in your thirties,” Antony exclaimed. He had always been one of the ordinary, untrained, non-special majority, and with it came the same doe-eyed adulation to people who achie

Antony let him ramble. Paxton probably understood his intentions at that point.About a minute later, Paxton started, “Has anyone found out about his reason? Why did he go against his direct order? Why misappropriate the Ambrosia Fruit? What was his ulterior motive?”Antony was bemused. “Do we need to? The Ambrosia Fruit is the solitaire of Earth’s quintessence, a treasure that could propel a man straight into the next few flights of evolution. Can’t you imagine just how seductive the fruit was to a superior class fighter like Zayn? It could strengthen him by leaps and bounds,” he replied. “Besides, he attained the perfect class after this, didn’t he? That’s gotta be a result from consuming the Ambrosia Fruit.”His conjecture sounded pretty full proof, yet Paxton found a reason to shake his head. “I doubt that’s it. Remember, he was the same young man who managed to reach the fourth tier of the superior class within two years. His absolute genius and talent were evident; I don’t thi

Zayn was unaware that his two experienced subordinates, Sean and Gordon, would come up with so many ideas just because he rode an electric scooter. As he rode the electric scooter home leisurely, it was a pleasurable feeling for him. He found the sun that his skin soaked in comforting. Just as he was waiting for the traffic light to turn green, the Porsche next to him rolled down its window and a puzzled voice was heard saying, “Zayn Larson?”Zayn turned his head to the side to find a slightly chubby man with gold-rimmed glasses immediately. The man appeared rather familiar. “Are we acquainted with each other?”“F*ck, it really is you! Oh, Zayn, it’s been so long since we last met!” The man became excited at once. Zayn became even more confused in the meantime because he did not seem to recall who the man was. “You are...?”The man immediately scolded in rage, “F*ck! How dare you forget me? Damn it! I’m Kaiser. We used to go to the same school when we were in eighth grade!”U

On the other hand, Zayn suffered a disastrous decline. He had actually been reduced to riding an electric scooter now. She wondered how he would react when he saw how impressive she was now.Roxanne began to anticipate that scenario in her heart. Over on Zayn’s side, he sent a text message to Kaiser with his phone when he arrived home. It did not take long before Kaiser called him. “Hello, Zayn. You’ve finally gotten around to calling me. I was still thinking about how you might not remember my number!”Zayn chuckled and said, “Your number is quite easy to remember.”Kaiser sniggered, then said, “Of course. I spent a few thousand dollars to get this number, so it has to be something that is easy to remember.”Next, Zayn and Kaiser exchanged small talk on the phone. Kaiser went straight to the point and said, “Hey, Zayn. Let’s talk about something important. Many of our friends are attending the middle school reunion that’s taking place tonight. Do come and join too by then.”“Mi
