Afraid?
When Long Yi first heard this word, he instinctively wanted to laugh it off.
Me? Long Yi, scared? How is that possible!
However, upon further reflection, Long Yi discovered a possibility that he himself found hard to believe.
Maybe, I really am afraid.
Long Yi's confidence was founded on his assessment of the enemy's and his own strength. He wasn't afraid of a powerful enemy because no matter how strong, every enemy has a limit.
As a great writer once said, 'Humans fear the unknown.'
An enemy whose nature is unknown is the most terrifying. And when this enemy has an obvious advantage, this fear is amplified manifold.
Every normal creature has fears, a self-protective instinct that helps any creature avoid harm.
To acknowledge and conquer this fear is what separates higher beings from lower ones.
"Yes, I think, maybe I really am scared."
Long Yi sighed and said.
