The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 308



It was as if he wanted to do it with Selena here in the kitchen. 'What the fuck! What the hell am I thinking? I can't fool Celia!’


David claimed to have almost fallen in love with the allure of Selena, but the power of his mind was so strong that it managed to suppress his own desires. Selena wasn't expecting this. He was sure that he saw a blatant desire in David's gaze. He was very excited, thinking that he had succeeded.


After all, David was the type of man who took full responsibility once he had slept with a girl. However, a moment later, calmness returned to David's eyes and there were no longer any signs of desire.


Selena was surprised and amazed. The man had a very strong desire for self-control. He could guarantee that David was the only young man who could refrain from his charm.


It made sense how David managed to become the highest stage in the Peak God Rank at such a young age and achieve success that no one else could have imagined. Talent must be counted as part of his success, as well as self-control.


“Selena, I know that the King family wants me to join their ranks and your family may believe that the marriage bond is the most powerful bond to be formed, but I wouldn't approve of a marriage without love. Maybe you were right about Celia, but why? I don't give a shit. I can and will control myself. Not all men think with their bottom and your allure cannot affect me." replied David calmly.


"David, ever since you became the strongest young man in Somerland, I've only seen you as my future husband. There is a place in my heart for you. Even if at first I didn't feel anything for you, I found myself slowly falling in love with you, so it wouldn't be a loveless marriage. Celia will never be able to give birth to your children. Was that your plan all along to die alone? Disaster is coming, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow, I don't even know if we will all survive. There is no point in thinking about what will happen in the future when disaster can destroy all our plans. Plus, I never really thought of having a child of my own before."


Selena wants to say more when David cuts her, “Alright, that's enough. Celia has already come down, so go have a chat with her. I'm fine here alone. Celia's an innocent girl and she really likes you. I know you approached her with hidden intentions, but all I ask is that you treat her sincerely and kindly."


"Don't worry. I also like Celia, I will be friends with her sincerely even if you don't ask me too." Selena answered sincerely.


"good. Rest assured, I acknowledge the contribution the King family has made to Somerland. I won't stand by and watch if you need my help."


"Thank you!"


Selena glanced at David once more before turning around to leave the kitchen. David kept busying himself and the table full of scented dishes was complete. The three of them chatted and ate happily, and the signs of conversation in the kitchen disappeared. The three of them had a happy dinner.


"David, do you have anything for tomorrow?" Celia looked up and asked expectantly.


"No!" answer David.


"Is that true? Then how about we take a day trip somewhere? It has been a long time since we went out to do something together.” asked Celia happily.


"certain. After all I'm free these few days, so we can go wherever you want." David replied with a smile.


At the same time, he also felt guilty. He was a bit busy lately and did not spend much time with Celia. There were even a few days in a row when she did not text or call Celia, but she understandingly let it go.


This was the reason why David liked Celia so much, he knew her limits and never stepped over even though he loved her so much. Celia will never stick to him and neither will she make


a small fight even once.


It was different when he was with Sarah. With Sarah, she would have to report her location every few hours if she did not attend class or she would get angry. Sometimes, when David is too busy to message and reply to her, Sarah spam David with a call.


Comparing the two, Celia was much more understanding, and this made David's heart touched. He swore he would never hurt Celia.


"That's great!" celia said excitedly.


She turned to Selena and said, "Follow with us tomorrow, Miss Selena!"


"Sure!" Selena replied, wanting nothing more than to join them.


"All right! It's done, then.”


After dinner, the three of them sat down together and chatted a little more until it was time to rest. When David leaves, the two women will sleep in


the same room. However, tonight, Selena attentively chose to sleep in the living room instead of with Celia, causing Celia's face to redden in embarrassment.


Still, he breaks into his bedroom with David. It was impossible for David to let go of such a big opportunity, but the man heeded what Selena had said earlier in the kitchen today.


Celia fell asleep less than two minutes after they finished. He looked completely exhausted, and this corroborated what Selena had said. There was a difference in physical condition between martialists and ordinary people. Although it was also made of bones and muscles, martial artists were slowly breaking the physical limits of ordinary people.


David felt this deeply, but to him, this was not a valid reason to accept Selena's appeal.


After all, he was a young man with a traditional mindset who had undergone higher education.


Yeah, he's been hurt before, but that's no reason to be a playboy and hurt other girls' feelings. Even if she ignored the above problem, she should still accept Pearl first before Selena. On that note, he had not even dealt with the matter regarding Pearl.


It would be a lie if David said that he felt nothing towards Pearl. Pearl had done a lot for him and his hard work could not be ignored in terms of his rapid growth of strength.


In fact, Pearl even agreed to Walt's outrageous request just to protect him and the East League Capitals. No one can ignore such a contribution, and David did too.


'But Pearl is also just an ordinary person and most likely she won't be able to handle me.'


David realized in despair.


Therefore, he decided not to think about it any further. His main mission now was to increase his strength quickly and face disaster. He was somewhat curious where his limit back then came to spending money and improving himself through luxury points.


The peak of the Super God Rank was most likely not his limit, and he should be able to advance further and venture into a world that no one had visited before.


He wondered if one day he would be strong enough to destroy the entire universe in his hands, attack the stars and moon with his bare hands, or even walk among the stars.


The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, the system is too magical. As of now, he knew nothing about the system other than the fact that he could earn luxury points by spending money and could increase the strength of his body and mind as well as learn new skills by spending them.


The system never attempts to communicate with him. Logically speaking, something very sophisticated should be equipped with an intelligence system that explains how one can use the system, its features, and its history. However, David did not receive any manuals at all, let alone an intelligence system.


All he knew was that he could earn luxurious points by spending money and then improving his body, mind power, and learning his skills. There is no location or date of manufacture.


'But why me, of all people?'


There is nothing special about David and he is one of the many ordinary people on Earth. It's not a question he can answer now, but David believes that he will slowly learn the reason as he grows stronger. One day he will find out what this system really is and why it chose it from everyone.


He felt there was more to it than it seemed because something as high-tech as the system would not choose a host for no reason. There must be something he doesn't know, and he will eventually find the reason as he gets stronger.


Like a little kitten, Celia curled up in David's arms and slept soundly. With this, the two slept while hugging.


The next day, David and Celia looked around on the streets of the Capital. Selena follows them all the time, making David the center of attention wherever they go. Celia alone was already very stunning, but with the delicate-looking Selena behind her, it was hard for people not to see her. David felt completely speechless about the fact that Selena also joined hands with him naturally like Celia.


She and Celia are a couple. They even did homeruns, so it was understandable if they joined hands. Countless men turned to look at David with envy and jealousy when they saw him walking adjacent to two nearly perfect women on either side. They just want to replace David and be the happiest person in the world.


No one understood the chaos David was feeling. David has a lot of beautiful girls bothering him, but feels agonized when he refrains from the temptations and allurements of the girls. Especially when Celia is too fragile to meet her needs, which makes her hold back and requires a lot of concentration and willpower.


Soon, the day was finally over. The two girls had fun.


“Celia, who is David to you?” Selena asked something else.


"A hero!"


Celia thought about it before continuing, “She once risked her life to save me when I was so desperate and almost died. From then on, he had always been the hero given to me by Heaven. He's the most perfect man in my eyes. In poverty or wealth, in sickness or health, I will never leave it.”


Celia's delicate face was filled with happiness and sweetness after she said that.


"Are you willing to sacrifice something for her?" selena.


“As long as it's what she needs, I'm willing to sacrifice anything.” Celia replied with determination.


Selena was instantly confident the moment she heard Celia's reply. Interpersonal relationships mean a lot to David, so if he wants David to accept them, Selena needs to get Celia to agree.


Of course, he would not fight Celia to get David's attention. She and Celia might not have known each other for long, but Celia's personality was something that attracted many men.


In fact, even Selena herself was interested in Celia's personality and she believed that as long as she told Celia the truth, Celia would definitely be willing to make sacrifices because she was an understanding woman.


If David is not willing to take a step towards her, then she will take it for him. He knows that his current actions will anger David, but Selena believes that as time goes by, David will come to thank him. He knew that men would be upset about having to hold back all the time.


“Celia, you should be proud of David. Not only is he your hero, but he's also someone else's hero. He bore the weight of all the Earthlings on his shoulders, although not everyone knew about this. If anything happens to David, seventy billion people on earth and over a hundred billion life forms will face a major disaster


“Can you be clearer, Miss Selena? I guess I don't understand your point.” asked Celia.


David had never said this to her before, and she had never asked. Still, this doesn't mean Celia isn't interested in the things around David.


"alright. I'll go into more detail, then..."


Selena kept telling Celia about the martial artist and even told her about the forecast of the impending calamity.


He then tells Celia that David will be the hero who will save the world from this disaster.


"Is that true, Miss Selena?" ask Celia in disbelief


"I won't lie about this." Selena replied with certainty.


Celia fell silent. He did not expect David to have such a high status and power. To him, David was just a successful young man who set up his own business.


He never thought to pay attention to things like status because he didn't care about David's identity. Whether David is just a courier, the owner of a large company, or the savior of humanity, it doesn't change the fact that he loves David so much.


Of course, Celia still felt very happy after hearing what Selena said because it meant that she had fallen in love with such an amazing man.


“Do you, Miss Selena? David and I were classmates in high school. At that time, I slipped and fell in the middle of the road when a large truck drove towards me. I was terrified and I thought I was going to be gone for good, but David happened to be delivering food near me and he saved me from the truck. He ended up spilling a dozen delivery boxes, but by then, I knew that David would be the right man for me. We were best friends from then on, until David got into a relationship with his girlfriend and started distancing himself from me. I was very sad then, and I cried almost every night, but slowly I understood that love was not about having someone by your side, but rather knowing that he was happy. After High School, I went back to the Capital to go to college. The only contact we had was the occasional message of blessing exchanged during the celebration. Later, I found out that David and his girlfriend broke up, so I gathered the courage to confess to her. We got together after that, but I never expected my happiness to come so quickly. Therefore, it doesn't matter to me who David really is. It's all the same to me and I don't really care. Even if she was still a courier, it wouldn't change that I still admire her and love her so much.”


Celia only tells Selena about her and David's story. The corner of his lips lifted as he retold the story, as he had only dreamed of and never expected with David. He originally planned to give up as long as David was happy in his life.


She was even comforted by the thought of never getting married and dying alone because she could not accept the idea of another man other than David touching her. Still, Heaven has given her the chance to realize her dream and she now thinks that she is the happiest woman in the world.


“Celia, do you know how great you are? Any man would love a girl like you, and I can understand why David would willingly suffer alone rather than risk to harm you" Selena exclaimed.


Celia's smile was gone when she heard what Selena said.


He asked nervously, “Nona Selena, is David okay? What do you mean he suffered? Please tell me!"


"Are you sure you want to know?" Selena asked.


"Yes! Tell me, hurry." Celia replied without hesitation.


“You sure Celia? You will feel very sad when you find out. And if David finds out that I told you, he's gonna blame me. With his current identity and strength, all it takes is a word from him and I will be put into the eighteen layers of hell.”


“Please, Miss Selena, tell me! Don't worry, David won't do anything to you as long as I'm here. He won't even know you told me if I didn't say anything."


Selena has no doubt. This is what he wanted. David loves Celia very much and does not want to hurt her, but Celia also loves David very much. According to her understanding of Celia's character over the past few days, Celia will definitely compromise the moment she finds out about the situation David is in.


This was Selena's chance to make David hers, so she leaned over and whispered in Celia's ear.
