This ti, it was Julius' turn to be surprised.
He looked at with one brow raised, as if he didn't expect to suddenly ask this.
I knew that I had touched on sothing, so I continued by asking, "Or should I be more specific and ask, why ?"
Julius wasn't as surprised this ti as he revealed a smile and said, "This friend, don't you think that you're being a little too egoistic? Why do you think that this is about you?"
Though his voice was calm, I could tell that he wasn't as calm as he seed on the surface.
It seed that I had finally been able to shake this young man's perfect image.
I didn't answer the question and just calmly said back, "Oh, then if it's a mistake, I don't think there's a need to keep discussing this anymore, right?"
I stood up and was about to leave when Julius suddenly said, "Alright, alright, we can talk this through."
With this, I turned around with a satisfied smile and sat back down.
The satisfied smile that I had wasn't because of my ego…though it would be a lie to say that I didn't feel a bit good about this.
The real reason for this satisfied smile was because I had finally gotten Julius to fall into my trap.
With this, the pacing of the discussion would go completely different.
Before this, Julius seed to control the entire pace of the conversation since he was the one that had shown up all of a sudden and acted all unreasonable. We had no choice but to go along with him to see what he wanted.
So when it ca to negotiation power, it was all in his hand rather than being divided evenly between us.
But now that he had done this, he had to give up the pace a bit and so of the negotiation power since he was forced to reveal his hand.
It seed that his target was indeed .
Only, what was so special about that he would want ?
I might have attracted quite a few won, but I never thought that I would attract a man as well…
No, it shouldn't be that…right?
When I sat down and this thought passed through my mind, I couldn't help looking at Julius with one brow raised.
Julius also felt very strange when he saw looking at him like this, so he revealed a look as if he was saying, "Why are you looking at like this?"
After sitting down, I looked like I was waiting for him to explain, but Julius just sat there in silence for a bit.
The look on his face made it seem like he was still trying to decide what he wanted to say.
Finally, Julius revealed a serious look for the first ti and said, "Your ability is Suggestion, right?"
I was a bit taken aback by this, but I gave a nod.
This was public knowledge, so it wasn't as if there was a need to deny this.
Julius then asked with the sa serious look, "How much of an increase can you give to each attribute and how long will it last? Is there anything else that you can do with your ability?"
I was even more taken aback by this sudden question.
However, this ti I didn't answer as easily as I said, "Sincerity begets sincerity. Questions should be responded to before more are asked."
He narrowed his eyes to look at before saying, "My power is known as The Divine."
Just the na for now, but it was at least a step forward.
Hearing this, I gave a nod and said, "I can increase power and speed by a factor of up to ten tis since humans only use around 10% of their brain in the first place. But you should know how dangerous removing limiters is."
Julius revealed a shocked look when he heard this, but then his eyes lit up.
At the sa ti, Alex who had been silently listening also revealed a shocked look.
Not because he had heard what had been said, but rather because there was sothing that suddenly cut off the audio for him. It was as if the two of them were in their own isolated world and he wasn't able to hear a single thing.
Julius then cald down and said, "My ability allows to change the world as I please, but it depends on how much mana I have."
"Huh?" I couldn't help being shocked when I heard this.
I understood the words that ca out of his mouth, but I really couldn't imagine what kind of power this was.
Change the world as he pleased…
Did that an that he was basically god?
The Divine, it did sound like sothing that only god would have.
Julius saw the look on my face and explained, "It takes a ridiculous amount of mana to do even the simplest things, so it isn't as if I can do whatever I want. I can only do so small things with my ability without hurting myself. But with your buff powers…"
I was slowly starting to understand why he was so excited, but I couldn't help reminding him, "There are backlashes to using my power. Your body might not be able to handle the rebound."
Julius just looked at with a smile without saying anything.
But he also reached his hand out towards and said, "Let's work together, alright?"
He didn't have any seriousness as he asked this.
It was as if he was a kid that was asking soone to play with him.
But this hand represented a great opportunity for .
The Divine…
This was an insane power that I had never heard of, but I knew that I wanted him for myself when I heard this.
If I was able to control him, then there was nothing that I couldn't do in the future.
It was just a matter of controlling him.
Would I be able to do it?
Slowly, I reached my hand upwards and took Julius' hand.
