"Well, I guess you're right."
Faust surprisingly didn't respond in the way that Lin Fan had thought he would.
With how he had been releasing the aura of death, anyone would have thought that he would be much violent or unstable, but no matter how Lin Fan looked at him, he didn't seem like that.
To Lin Fan, he looked no different from a normal friendly person that he would et on the street.
Of course, for him to release that kind of aura of death, it was clear that things weren't as simple as they seed, so Lin Fan didn't let his guard down for even a second.
After a slight pause, Faust's voice suddenly fell and he said in a voice that was so cold that it felt like being dragged into the deepest parts of hell, "But it's too bad that you're not qualified to know my na."
Lin Fan imdiately raised his hands and there was a pure white sword that suddenly appeared in them. He didn't let his eyes wander at all as he kept them on Faust the entire ti.
There was a tense atmosphere in the air for the longest ti before Faust suddenly gave a laugh and asked, "Why so serious?"
Lin Fan was taken aback the mont he heard this because the way he had said it had been exactly like a character that he had seen in a movie back on earth, one who always asked people about how he had gotten his scars.
That character was soone who had been completely ntal, so at least they had that in common. However, if Faust was just as smart as that character, it really would an trouble for Lin Fan…
But before Lin Fan could do a thing, Faust had waved his hand and the chair by the desk was pulled out by an invisible force before coming to a stop right in front of Lin Fan.
After the chair stopped there, Faust asked, "How about we have a talk before our life and death showdown? I'm sure that you have so questions for , just like I have so questions for you."
Lin Fan looked at the chair, but when he looked back up, Faust was already leaning back in bed again, looking quite relaxed. This didn't seem like the stance of soone who wanted to fight at all.
After hesitating for a bit, Lin Fan sat down in the chair, but he had also changed the Iron Eater Bone Artifact into a little white dagger that he placed in his sleeve just in case. If Faust made even a single move, Lin Fan would be able to pull it out and protect himself at any ti.
But after sitting down, Faust didn't say a single word as he just sat there looking at his book. It was almost as if he had completely forgotten about Lin Fan.
There was an awkward silence that filled the air.
When Mo Ze Chen who was outside saw this, he wanted to co forward to say sothing to Lin Fan, but the mont he reached the threshold of the door, it was like there was an invisible barrier that was in front of him.
Even when he tried to talk, it was like Lin Fan couldn't hear him at all.
That was because Lin Fan indeed couldn't hear him.
Even with Mo Ze Chen hitting the barrier in front of him and shouting at Lin Fan, the inside of the room was completely silent.
Mo Ze Chen was planning on bringing out his weapon to attack the barrier, but he suddenly felt a gaze fall onto him. The mont this gaze fell onto him, it felt like being crushed by a mountain as he crumpled to the floor, finding it hard to even breathe.
Mo Ze Chen had been able to track the source of this gaze and he found that it was the person sitting on the bed.
That person had raised the book in just the right way so that his face was blocked from Lin Fan's gaze, but Mo Ze Chen could still see him.
That person had one finger to his lip and a cold look in his eyes, almost as if he was telling Mo Ze Chen to be quiet or he would die.
Mo Ze Chen didn't have ti to see anything else as he was crushed into the ground and he lost consciousness.
Once Mo Ze Chen was out of the picture, the person behind the book turned his gaze back to Lin Fan. Even though there was the book blocking him, the way he was looking at Lin Fan was like he could see him through the book.
After another minute of silence, the person behind the book suddenly revealed a smile and said under his breath, "Soon."
Eventually, Lin Fan couldn't take it and he asked, "Are you going to say anything?"
Faust lowered the book and revealed a smile as he said, "Well, isn't it polite for the person asking to answer first?"
Lin Fan was taken aback since he never expected his own words to be used against him.
Faust saw this and shook his head with a smile before saying, "How about we play a ga then?"
Lin Fan was even more surprised, but he still asked, "What kind of ga?"
Faust looked right into Lin Fan's eyes and said, "It's a simple ga, we'll take turns asking questions and the first one to stop will be the loser. Are you interested in playing?"
Lin Fan didn't turn his gaze away as he looked right into Faust's gaze.
After looking for a bit, Lin Fan couldn't help feeling even more doubtful since he couldn't sense any hostility from that gaze at all. It was almost as if there was a kind of a familiarity that was in that gaze…Almost a kind of love…
Lin Fan felt a chill when he realized this.
Although he had to admit that Faust was a good looking person, Lin Fan definitely wasn't into that kind of stuff.
Still, Lin Fan didn't look away as he said, "How do we decide who starts?"
Faust didn't answer right away and after a pause, he said, "Well, seeing as you are the guest, how about I let you start?"
Lin Fan also paused before asking, "Who are you?"
Faust shook his head when he heard this question before saying, "You're asking sothing you already know, that really is a waste of a question."
Lin Fan then said, "Then I'll ask another question."
But Faust suddenly raised his hand and said, "Nope, you've already asked your question, so you can't change it now. Yes, as you've already guessed, my na is Faust."
Lin Fan nodded, but he didn't say anything.
Faust didn't mind this at all as he suddenly revealed a smile and asked, "Then how about you introduce yourself as well?"
Lin Fan hesitated before saying two simple words, "Lin Fan."
Faust just smiled without saying a thing.
Lin Fan then asked, "What are you planning?"
Faust said with a smile, "Sothing big."
Lin Fan had three dark lines appear on his face as he asked, "Is that it? I think I've won this ga then."
Faust raised a finger and wagged it as he said, "The only rule here is that we have to answer the question and we would lose if we couldn't. No matter how vague it is, that is still an answer, don't you think?"
Lin Fan's face turned darker when he heard this, but he couldn't refute this. Faust had used this loophole to hide his real secrets. Still, this also ant that Lin Fan could give his answer in a different way if he didn't want to reveal anything.
Seeing that Lin Fan wasn't complaining, Faust gave a nod of praise before asking, "How are you related to Huang Di?"
Lin Fan was surprised when he heard this.
Huang Di, that was the na of his transmigration senior, the one that was hailed as a saviour in this village.
When Lin Fan had first seen this na, he almost couldn't believe his eyes because he knew for sure that wasn't his person's real na. After all, there was no one who dared to na their child this and no governnt official would even approve it.
This was the title of the legendary Yellow Emperor from Chinese mythology, so while it didn't an anything to the people of this world, it ant sothing for anyone who ca from earth.
But to Lin Fan, the only feeling he had was sha.
Not sha for himself, but rather sha for his transmigration senior.
It seed like his transmigration senior had quite the case of Eighth Grade Syndro…
Faust had been carefully watching Lin Fan the entire ti and he could see his reaction to this, but strangely it was a kind of reaction that he wasn't expecting. After all, it seed like he was reacting more to the na than the person that it represented.
After another pause, Lin Fan said, "I'm not."
Both of them had been using their own techniques to check if the other person was lying since this was just that kind of ga. However, when Faust used his technique on Lin Fan when Lin Fan had said this, he could clearly tell that Lin Fan wasn't lying.
But what about that reaction when Lin Fan had heard the na?
What was that about?
Still, while Faust was curious, he didn't push it since he knew that he still had ti.
The ga was just starting.
