413 Zaro’s Wish
With the first gift, Fein receive he became more and more expectant of the three other gifts that they would give.
‘This is definitely a windfall!’ Fein clenched his fist.
He took the red box from Red’s hand, where a shining golden apple was placed. Then he pretended to put it in his pockets, but he secretly stored it in the system’s storage space. After all, such a precious material, he won’t feel secure if he didn’t store it in a safe place.
And where’s the safest place to put items? It’s the system’s storage! Because the only one that had access to it and knew that it exists.
Then Fein looked at the other three expectantly...
Seeing Fein’s reaction made Ceterus chuckle. “Hey, don’t let him wait. Though, I feel embarrassed now because I didn’t bring a gift.”
“Well, mine might not be as good as the golden apple. But I hope that you would like it.” Zaro rummaged the backpack in his hand under the envious gazes of Michael and Kidd.
‘How about us? We don’t have gifts?? The world is really unkind... It treats everything partially!’ Michael secretly complained. But he understood the truth...
His friend only receives such benefits because of his strength. And if he really wants to have the same treatment. Then he should work hard and strive to become stronger!
.....
‘Such a blatant giving of precious gifts. I wonder what are their real intentions... Really just for investment?’ Anthony, who was skeptical by nature, began to question the fours’ intention.
Anthony wasn’t like Michael, Gregory, and Kidd. He could see more than what was shown on the surface. ‘I might really just overthinking...’
After all, there’s no doubt that the four’s act of investment in Fein was a wise decision. Because Fein came from their country and he’s the youngest genius, the fastest man who was promoted to S rank! It is given that if Fein’s momentum continued... He would grow into a figure with unshakable status and powerful strength. A person whose every move could affect the world!
In the long run, it would give the four S rank a huge benefit! For example... If somehow they encounter some powerful enemy that they can’t take care of. The four can just ask Fein.. Or if Fein really succeeds and becomes the first SS rank, their status would rise because they were Fein’s friend.
Anthony had to admit that the four had a vision and could see the bigger picture of things. In life, sometimes, one just needs to pick the right camp or the right ally. Depending on the decision, one could rise in one fell swoop, or get destroyed if one chose the wrong camp! ‘In the final sense, if you see a golden thigh, you have to hug it tightly and cultivate the skill of licking!’
Just like that, the people in the room waited until Zaro took out a thick orange book. Then Zaro just stared at the book with a complicated face, and sighed for a moment, before he stretched his and pushed the book towards Fein’s hand.
Fein didn’t know why Zaro had that kind of reaction. It was as if he was unwilling to part with the book. But if he’s unwilling... Why give it to him?
HISS!
Zohan, Red, Ceterus, and Zalmond gasped and looked at Zaro and the thick orange book with shock written on their faces
The reaction of the four caught Fein’s and the others’ attention. Now, they wonder why they reacted like that.
‘Is this book that valuable?’ Fein felt a tinge of fire to read the book on the spot.
It had fully stimulated his curiosity! How could a mere book give the bigshots a surprise? And why Zaro had that look on his face while giving him the book. Although he didn’t the answer. It was certain that the book was super valuable!
“Zaro, I didn’t expect that you would give that...” Red took a deep breath, “Are you sure about that??? Didn’t you exchange half of your fortune just for that orange book? And it took you fifty years just to find it.”
Fein, Gregory, and others were stunned when they heard Red’s words. Half of Zaro’s fortune? Fifty years to find? Just these immediately let them understand just how precious the book was! After all, half the fortune of an S rank is inconceivable! What’s more, the effort Zaro gave just to find the book is already shocking. Just what book could make an S rank become determined enough to find it in such a long time!?
Now, Zaro was actually giving it to Fein!? Gregory, Michael, and others finally knew why the book made Ceterus and the other three S ranks react that way!
“I’m sure... I’m really unwilling to part with this book. I’ve spent fifty years, a large number of resources, and effort just to find this book. This book is already like a child to me. But it’s a pity that I can’t learn it no matter how I tried. Even with my most proud talent, I could learn even the basics. It’s too complicated that it made me doubt my comprehension.” Zaro paused for a few seconds and said sadly. Then he looked at his old friends. “I even let you borrow it for one or two years, but the four of you also failed to comprehend this book.”
“Well, it’s really complicated. I’m confident with my understanding, as I could even master the most complicated martial techniques in a few months, but that book also made me helpless.” Ceterus sighed.
‘Just what is the content of the book that could make the proud powerhouses and the figures that stand at the top of the food chain helpless like this? Is it really hard to learn?’ Anthony became puzzled.
After all, the five S ranks in front of him are undoubtedly talented to be able to reach their current heights. More so, Ceterus was known as a genius in comprehension even amongst the S rank circle.
“Although I’m unwilling to part with it. I can’t let this book get wasted in my hand! Only in the right person would the book’s value get justice. Now, I’ll give it to you.” Zaro stared at Fein with solemnity. “If even Fein, the number one genius in our history, can’t learn it. Then no one would! I hope that you can learn it... Are you confident in your comprehension?”
‘Of course! I have an S-rank talent in comprehension!’ Fein retorted in his head while curious about just how complicated the book really was.
