"I..." Nash opened his mouth to reply, and after brief thinking, his gaze turned resolute and said, "I will choose none."
The words said by Nash were like an unexpected tidal wave that washed away the expected reply Aruer wished to say next and even caused his smile to froze on his face!
Aruer has already thought about what he will say and do next when Nash will accept his offer as that was the most logical to do. After all, he was an ancient being that lived for countless millennia and had strength, that he found out just now, was way above the strongest existence inside the Ancient Dimension!
Yet, despite seeing the obvious and knowing what Nash should choose, he still decided to go with something else that seemingly made no sense at all! As Aruer thought about this, like getting struck by a magic wand on the top of his head, all his previously collected thoughts vanished and his eyes flashed with confusion as he stared at Nash!
