He Became A Monstrous Genius After Obtaining A Time Dilation Artifact

Everyone’s eyes remained on Phila.

’’During a hunting expedition, a traditional event organized by the Ngonzola family every year, I came across a young man of similar age to mine, sitting by a fire at night and roasting a piece of meat’’ Her gaze lingered on Michael for a short moment as warmth flashed through her eyes.

Everyone figured from her gesture that Michael was the young man she was referring to.

’’My brother had decided to use the hunt as an opportunity to get rid of me once and for all. His supporters were exceedingly domineering. Even my butler who was extremely powerful, had to detonate himself with the supporters of my brother that chased after me personally. In the end, I barely survived because my brother had underestimated the loyalty my followers had towards me. After all, he would have never expected that my butler would be so crazy as to sacrifice himself to save my life. Anyway, I wandered the forest for days until I chanced upon the young man I spoke about, Michael. Being a non-awakener and having travelled the forest without food for days, I was extremely hungry. The moment I crossed paths with him, I passed out. I woke up a few hours later, after which he dressed my wounds and fed me some of the food he was eating some time ago’’

Phila nodded, urging Micheal to continue the account from where she had stopped ’’In short, we fell in love after spending a lot of time together, minutes, hours, days. Phila soon decided to leave because according to her, the time limit for the family event had ended, and therefore, she had to report back to the family. She decided to take me with her; however, I was obstinate about that, disagreeing with her for some reason. I only told her I didn’t want to invite trouble for her. So, she urged me to tell her what was going on. However, at the time, I did not say a word to her. ’Since you are not willing to go with me or tell me what’s up with you, then I am not leaving this place. I am staying here with you’. This was what Phila told me’’ Micheal stared at Phila at this point with a warm expression. It was obvious what Phila did at the time meant a lot to him at the time, and he was grateful for it, even now.

’’No one can be stubborn or committed than a woman in love, or whatever they say’’ Everyone turned to look at Kailen, who had just spoken with a stiff expression. For some reason, the statement just sounded wrong and way out of line coming from his mouth.

’’Pffft’’ Arrie suppressed her laughter, however , everyone joined in.

’’Dude, wise sayings just don’t sound okay in your mouth for some reason. And what was with that-’’ Angela laughed as she spoke, however halfway through her words, Arrie added ’’-Confucious like gaze right?’’

’’Mmm-hmm’’ Angela did not understand what Arrie meant, however she played along.
