Why was it like this?
Why was it that some people's fate could not be peered into?
Even when facing transcendents with a higher class rank than his own, Robert would only conclude that his attempt to peer into fate had failed, rather than it being impossible to peer into at all.
This fundamental difference left Robert's heart in a state of absolute panic; he had no idea how to respond.
This led to a situation where Olivia had already arrived right in front of him before he had even made a move.
But just because he did nothing did not mean Olivia would do nothing.
Olivia raised the door-panel-sized Cross Grace in her hand and smashed it fiercely toward Robert!
By the time Robert realized that Olivia had already launched her attack, it was too late for him to react.
"Bang!"
Everyone in the hall heard a massive collision sound, followed by the sight of Robert's body being sent flying like a rubber ball, landing on the ground in a pathetic heap.
This scene left everyone staring at each other in bewilderment.
When Robert, this excellent Fate Walker, stepped onto the field, everyone had expected a fierce battle, or at the very least, a fight similar to the one between Olivia and Queenie.
But what was presented before their eyes instead?
How could this renowned Fate Walker, admired by so many, appear so utterly pathetic in front of Olivia?
Not to mention the others, the people from the Moriah Empire were absolutely stunned; they could not understand what was going on at all.
Standing outside the arena, they naturally could not use the power of fate to peer into Olivia, so they had no idea what incomprehensible situation Robert was actually facing.
They only knew that Robert, in whom they had placed such high hopes, was now acting like a clown, so pathetic that everyone felt a sense of shame.
What on earth was going on?
Under the gaze of the crowd, Robert climbed up from the ground, his face turning pale and then flushed.
He looked at Olivia again as she continued to walk toward him and found that he still could not see her trajectory of fate, which meant he was completely unable to fight her.
For some reason, he thought of what he had previously said to Una and recalled his earlier confidence that he could easily handle Olivia, and a wave of shame and anger welled up within him.
A monster!
She was simply a monster!
"I... I concede!"
Having completely lost the courage to fight, Robert chose to concede on the spot and turned around to walk back toward the Moriah Empire's seating area.
This scene caused an uproar in the crowd.
Upon returning to the Moriah Empire's side, Robert was immediately surrounded by everyone.
"Robert, what are you doing? Are you bringing disgrace to our Moriah Empire?"
"Who told you to concede? Tell me who ordered you to concede!"
"What is wrong with you? Why did you act so embarrassingly? Are you even the Robert I know?"
"Didn't you say earlier that you would easily handle Olivia? You even said you were waiting for her to fully recover before challenging her. Is this all your performance amounts to?"
"Robert, you are an absolute disgrace to our Moriah Empire."
Within the Moriah Empire's group, one transcendent after another was furious, blaming Robert without reservation because his performance had been so lackluster that it was completely unacceptable to everyone else.
Under the barrage of accusations, Robert shouted back indignantly: "What are you all arguing about? If you have the ability, go up there yourselves! Forget about transcendents; if you Domainists or Skywalkers have the guts, go up there! I want to see if you can perform any better than I did."
"What is that supposed to mean? Do you think we Domainists or Skywalkers could lose to Olivia?"
Robert's words only made the crowd even angrier.
"Alright, alright, everyone, let's not say any more. Just calm down," Una said at this moment.
Hearing Una's voice, the group immediately quieted down.
Although Una was not the only Skywalker in the Moriah Empire, among the many Skywalkers, she remained the most powerful and was the designated leader of the Moriah Empire's delegation this time.
As she spoke, everyone naturally had to give Una some face.
When the crowd fell silent, Una asked Robert: "What exactly happened just now? Explain yourself."
Facing Una, Robert dared not act out and had to honestly explain: "That Olivia is too strange. I simply could not peer into her trajectory of fate."
"It was impossible to peer into, not just a failed attempt!"
"I have never encountered such a situation. For any person, peering into fate should only result in either success or failure."
"But such a thing as 'impossible to peer into' is something I have never even heard of."
"That is why I knew I could not continue fighting her and had to concede."
After listening to Robert's explanation, the group looked at each other, unable to comprehend it.
What did it mean to be impossible to peer into? Could someone's fate actually be in a state where it could not be observed?
No one had ever heard of such a thing, and for a moment, all eyes turned back to Una, wanting to see what insight she might have.
At this moment, Una's expression was exceptionally solemn as she confirmed with Robert once more: "You are certain it was impossible to peer into, not a failed attempt?"
"I am absolutely certain. It was simply impossible to peer into," Robert said without hesitation.
"What does it mean when something is impossible to peer into?"
The others could not help but ask as well, looking at Una with curiosity.
From Una's expression, they could tell she surely understood the situation.
To this, Una did not hide anything: "There truly exist some special people in this world whose fate cannot be peered into."
"Such individuals are rarely simple; they are like the protagonists of an era, capable of easily stirring up massive waves in this world and becoming existences that countless people worship."
"When the Pope of the Radiant Light Church was young, when the Saintess of the Nature Sect was young, and when the Chief Star Envoy of the Tower of Stars was young, they all belonged to this category of era-defining protagonists whose fate could not be peered into."
"I did not expect another person whose fate cannot be peered into to appear, and they are still within the Radiant Light Church."
Hearing Una say this, the expressions of the group shifted repeatedly, and for a moment, they were speechless.
Protagonist of the era!
What an astonishing, what a shocking title!
Could that nun not far away actually be called a protagonist of the era?
"I think we need to find an opportunity to have a proper exchange with this nun," Una said, her gaze flickering.
