The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 270

"No, I wouldn't call you a stalker, but I'd be very happy because at least I could catch your attention, I've been watching you for a long time, but you wouldn't even look at me. I feel so sad" Selena said seriously.

"Eh... " David doesn't know how to answer.

‘Am I really charming now? Even a peerless woman like Selena fell in love with me. Frankly, Selena is definitely the most beautiful woman I have ever met. Even Lorraine could not compare to him. Too bad I already have Celia. Nah! Celia is the most beautiful woman in my heart.'

"Miss Selena, tell me seriously, why did you come here?" David asked.

"Nothing, I just want to thank you."

"You don't have to thank me. Your father fought against the Guardian God Rank Dominic's family to save me, otherwise he wouldn't have been hurt. In the end, I have to thank you for everything.” said David.

David thought Selena was thanking him for detoxifying her father.

"I don't thank you for saving my father, but I thank you for saving us all."

"What do you mean?" David asked confusedly.

"It's okay. I just wanted to thank you for killing six Guardian God Rank fighters and saving us all! If you weren't around, we wouldn't have survived, my Silver Face!” selena said smiling while expressing her feelings for David.

"Huh?" David's brain stopped working for a while.

‘He knows? How come? My disguise was really perfect, and I had even changed my clothes, so how could she recognize me? He must be lying! Yeah, he must be lying! I can't believe it.'

"What are you saying, Miss Selena? I don't understand.” asked David pretended not to understand.

"Didn't you understand? Then I'll make it clearer. You, David Lidell, are the Silver Face, Captain of the Red Flame Mercenaries' forces on the Dark Cape. Is that clear enough?"

"Miss Selena, you must be kidding me! How can I become a Silver Face? Silver Face could kill Mid-God Rank fighters in an instant, so he was at least old age! How old am I? I'm only 22 years old right now. No way! You ever heard of a Late God Rank level fighter at the age of 22?"

"I've never heard of it."

"You're right, that's really impossible, right?"

"David, if it was someone else, I wouldn't associate you with the Silver Face, you two would be too different. Unfortunately, I have the ability, that is, I will never forget anything I kissed. And when I smelled it a second time, I could confirm that it was 100% sure of the origin of the scent. The first time I smelled your scent was when you saved my father, and the second time was when I was about to get killed and you hugged me and saved me, so I couldn't have guessed it wrong."

David looked into Selena's eyes and could not speak. Selena looked into David's eyes. The two stared at each other for almost a minute before David averted his gaze.

He breathed a helpless sigh in his heart. David's heart tells him that the girl is not lying, and rightly so. Which means that he praises her. Selena could smell the same scent. David would not doubt a person with such talent in the slightest.

So, his identity as the Silver Face was really revealed. David wonders if Selena is telling others the truth that she is the Silver Face.

David confirms his identity as Silver Face, and once Selena finds out, he won't continue pretending anymore. Since Selena had such talent, pretending to be stupid would not work, so she had to be honest.

"Since Miss Selena already knows my identity, then I have nothing to say. Yes, I am indeed a Silver Face, but I don't want to reveal my identity for now. I'm asking you to help me keep it a secret, Miss Selena" said David sighing.

"Why? David, everyone wants to be the one who catches everyone's attention. I wish the whole world knew how amazing you are, but you're trying your best to hide it and try to make yourself look mediocre even though the so-called mediocrity is so enchanting to others." selena asked curiously as she looked at David with her pair of seductive beautiful eyes.

He really did not understand why David was hiding his strength.

"There's no excuse. It's just that I don't like it, and don't you think my strength doesn't match my age at all?"

"Isn't this a better way to show your superiority? From ancient times until now, you've done things no one else can. A 22-year-old Late Stage God Rank fighter is truly unprecedented, and there might be no one like you in the future" Selena said in awe.

David's strength was already at the same level as his grandfather, but he wasn't even as old as his grandfather. He was an indescribable monster.

"No, no, no. There is a saying that says, 'it is the trees higher in the forest that make the shoots blown by the wind’. If plants are like that, what about humans? Once my identity is revealed, many foreign troops will definitely find a way to get rid of me. That's why, in order to save my life, I have to stay humble, you know?" David explained.

"It's the trees higher up in the forest that blow their shoots away, but that's before you grow. You have become a mighty tree that reaches Heaven now, so what wind can blow your shoots? A Late Stage God Rank level fighter was at the top of the world. My grandfather will soon be 90 years old and he only has the strength of a Late Stage God Rank level fighter."

"Miss Selena, you don't know. There will always be someone better than you in this world. Didn't you hear what Saunder Chris said? The grandmaster in his family was even stronger than Senior Master Stefani and he was a God Rank level fighter. Once people find out that I might be able to threaten them in the future, will they forgive me? What if an older, stronger monster that was even stronger than Senior Master Stefani came to kill me when the time came? I might not be able to escape with my current strength."

Selena thought about it for a moment. David's right. Even though he had become a fighter at the level of a Late Stage God Rank, there were still people who could defeat him. If the foreign troops knew that he was a Late Stage God Rank level fighter at such a young age, he would definitely be killed.

However, is there really someone who can surpass Masons in this world?

He remembered his grandfather once said that a High God Rank level fighter seemed to possess the highest combat power in the world. There was no one who could reach beyond a God Rank level fighter now. However, even if a Supreme God Ranker level fighter appeared, with David's strength as a Late Stage God Rank level fighter, most of them would not be able to escape.

"Then, what can I do to help you?" ask Selena.

"Miss Selena, as long as you can keep this a secret and not tell anyone, it will be my greatest help. I still need more time to develop and when I am strong enough to not be afraid of anyone anymore, then I can reveal my identity. By the way, you didn't tell anyone about this, did you?"

"No, David, don't worry. I'll keep it a secret for you. I won't even tell my father and grandfather.” Selena said solemnly.

"Thank you, Miss Selena.”

"David, we're friends now, right?"

"Yes, definitely." answered David confidently.

"Then you should call me Selena and not Miss Selena, okay? I don't like to hear it."

"Yes..Okay fine! I'll call you Selena from now on."

"David, there's something I want to ask you."

"How did you do all this? Even if you start from the moment you're in your mother's womb, it's only 23 years old. So how did you get to the level of a Late Stage God Rank? My grandfather used 80 years of his time to reach that realm."

"Actually.I don't know. I was just practicing then then I was able to reach up to this stage. I don't know what's really going on either."

"You are amazing!" exclaim Selena.

"Do you believe me?" David widened his eyes and asked.

He just wanted to trick Selena, but he trusted her instead.

"Yes! Why not!" selena.

He trusted David. David was one of the ones his grandfather had told him about. Otherwise, there was no other way to explain how he could reach this realm at his age. David becomes more relaxed after solving the problem regarding his identity that has been revealed.

Even if he were to finally be revealed, there would be no danger. After all, he was already a fighter with the Highest God Rank Level.

However, he had to keep his attitude to remain humble. David might be able to get killed if some High Level God Rank fighters surrounded him. With his cautious attitude, he would eliminate the slightest possibility of this happening.

Once he managed to break through his mind power and increase to the limit of a God Rank Level, he could surpass a Supreme God Rank Level and rise to another level twice as much. Only then could he feel relieved. David doesn't have to worry about people finding out about the system.

The two chatted on a cruise ship. David suddenly realized something was wrong.

'We didn't spend much time when we came from the Dark Cape, did we? How long has it been? Could it be that we went in the wrong direction? Aren't we getting further away from the Dark Cape?'

David quickly ran into the control room and stopped his ship.

Then he walked out and said timidly, "Selena, I think we might be misguided! We didn't take too long when we came here, but we didn't see the Dark Cape for even a long time."

"Yes. I think it's true" Selena said with a laugh.

Selena had long since realized that they were heading in the wrong direction. Selena didn't say anything, because she wanted to spend more time alone with David.

"Why didn't you say anything? We don't know how far we've sailed" David said confusedly.

"It's fun to be tossed around like this. There's only the two of us without anyone bothering us. We stay right here. We can catch, kill, and bake fish, so we won't starve. It would be better if we could have children here too" Selena said expectantly.

David is surprised by Selena's idea. ‘We only met for the first time today, right? But Selena wants us to stay together and have a baby with me? I can't understand any of this! Is this girl a crazy man? Or did he lose his mind from being hidden for so long? It's a shame for a beautiful woman like her to have something wrong in her brain.’

"Yes ... Selena, why do you have such an idea?” David asked.

"David, let me be honest with you! I came out with a mission from the King Family" Selena told David.

"What mission?"

"Married the winner of the grand event the chosen people, who are also the number one among the younger generation in Somerland."

"Why? Lorraine of the Krum Family also wants to marry the number one person among the younger generation in Somerland, and now the King Family also wants you to marry the number one person among the younger generation in Somerland as well. Why that?" asked David curiously.

Selena thought about it and said, "His simple is like this, the world will fall into crisis. If we want to survive, we need someone who might be number one among the younger generation in Somerland."

"Crisis? What kind of crisis?"

"I don't know either!”

"You don't know? And who is the source that brought the information?"

"family records! Many ancient streams and families had such records!"

"family records? Is that some kind of prophecy?"

"That's one way to say it!"

"Is the forecast reliable?”

"It is better to believe that the record is real than to believe that it does not exist. Moreover, the elders of the family would not randomly record it to make the younger generation worry. They must have something to back it up."

David remained silent. ‘Both the family and the ancient flow predicted the world would go through a time of crisis. Could the system have something to do with the predicted crisis? How else would a magical system suddenly descend upon me? Am I the chosen one? Did I get a system to save the world and become a savior? This is fucking crazy! No matter how I look at myself, there is nothing special about me. I don't get it! Maybe I should stop thinking about it.'

"Aren't you supposed to wait for the grand event of the chosen ones to end? Why are you following me? I've said I won't be number one among the younger generation in Somerland."

"It's your business if you don't want it, but the number one title among the younger generation in Somerland is yours. You are a Late Stage God Rank fighter who is only 22 years old. Do you think anyone can beat you?"

"Are you following me to get me to marry you and take me to the King family so I can help you when that crisis happens?" ask David.

"Yes! But I also thought it would be nice to stay afloat at sea with you without caring about any crisis." Selena replied.

Hearing Selena's reply, David felt calm. David automatically ignores the last part of what he has to say about his desire to drift on the sea with him.

David thought about it and said, "Selena! We're friends, and your father Augustus' idea goes along with mine. The King family is worthy too. If there is a crisis in the future, I promise to help the King Family, okay? You don't have to marry me."

"David! Don't you want to marry me? Or am I not beautiful enough and not attractive enough? As a woman from the King Family, my fate has already been determined. Even if I don't marry you, I will marry someone else in the future. If I had to choose someone to marry, I'd rather marry you" Selena said softly.
