"Yes...and no." Lionel said as he looked at Desire with a wide smile.

It was just funny and interesting for him to see that Desire somehow panicked after knowing that he might have been forced into the Physical Style.

Of course, that was not the case, and that was proven by Lionel.

"Although it is the truth that you have a better chance of having a Physical Style now, it is not set in stone."

"You can still practice the Magical or Mental, whatever you want."

"As I've said before, I won't bind you to me."

"That is why I will allow you to choose."

Lionel said once more with a wide smile. The looks in his eyes were just...naughty.

And Desire could see all that as he remembered the time when Jarina made the plan of sneaking inside Jakart.

It seems that they were truly father and daughter as Desire could even pick up the similarity.

And that was why Desire could feel a chill run up his spine right now.

Jarina did something crazy when she showed this smile. Now, her father was showing the same smile.

It was easy to guess where this was going, and that was why Desire spoke.

"Uh...really? It doesn't seem like that way to me." Desire said.

Desire said what he meant. Well, it seems like Lionel was all for it to force Desire to have the Physical Style.

Besides, what Desire could predict from this smile is exactly that Lionel would force him.

Although Desire didn't really like how he would be forced, Desire was fine with it.

After all, having the Physical Style would benefit him so much more.

What's more, his master has the Physical Style. It makes sense for the student to follow it.

It was then that Lionel finally spoke.

"Oh, man. There's no kidding around with you, huh." Lionel said.

For Lionel, Desire was looking so...scared and nervous about being forced to have a Physical Style.

Well, it was normal as this would influence Desire's fighting styles.

"I'm just kidding. You don't have to choose between any of them."

And when Lionel said that, Desire's eyes widened instantly. After all, Lionel was saying that he would choose for Desire.

However, it seems that was not the case as Lionel continued speaking.

"It's because you can have any of the styles at the same time."

"What? Huh?" Desire said as he tilted his head.

He didn't understand what Lionel just said. After all, Lionel already explained things to him.

He said that one could not practice two styles at the same time because it was just not possible.

However, Lionel was saying that Desire could have any of the styles.

Lionel was contradicting himself right now. And that was why Desire was confused as well.

However, it seems Lionel was not joking around as he spoke once more.

"You can have the Physical Style, Magical Style, or Mental Style at the same time. I can guarantee that. After all, who do you think your master is?"

"I am Lionel, the Lion King. There's no way I won't be able to bypass those rules, right?"

"Kuhahahaha!" Lionel laughed as he opened his mouth wide.

This was the reason Lionel said yes and no to Desire's question before.

After all, Desire could have the Physical or even the Magical Style.

"Of course, it is not without a price."

"There is something that you would have to do, and it is hard."

"It is even harder than what you did for achieving the Death stage."

"However, the fruits of having two styles or even three styles at the same time is sweet."

"It is sweet that you can become stronger than anyone in your age. No, you could become even stronger than most people with proper training."

"What do you say? Will you take this chance to have no limitations, or no, Desire?"

Lionel said as he crossed his arms. It seems that he was serious about this.

Well, there's just no way that Lionel would joke about something like this.

If he did that, he would be just an annoying prick.

And because Desire knew that Lionel was serious about this, he was seriously thinking.

After all, Desire knew that having the fruits of both worlds are sweet and tasty.

However, there was something that Desire had to know before making this decision.

"Master, I have a rude question." Desire said. He knew that what he was about to ask was rude.

"What is it?" Lionel said.

"Would you be able to teach me Magical Style or even the Mental Style? It seems a waste of time if you aren't able to teach me any of that."

As Desire's teacher was Lionel, he would learn from Lionel. That was common sense.

However, Lionel only had the Physical Style. There's no way that he would be able to teach things regarding the Magical Style.

And it seems that was the truth as Lionel proved it.

"That's right. I won't be able to teach you any Magical Style stuff."

"However, would you really reject this chance of having multiple fighting styles just because of that?"

"Remember, Desire. The world is big. You could learn from anything and from anyone."

"I told you that I wouldn't bind you to me."

What Lionel just said was the truth. After all, there were many ways to learn magic, swords, or even the Physical Style.

Lionel is just one of them, and Desire's life was just starting. Desire doesn't have to bind himself to Lionel by just having a single style.

Of course, Lionel didn't want to have Desire's potential be capped because of him. That was not something a master would want.

What's more, Lionel was not even considering himself a master.

At this point, Lionel was considering himself the guardian of Desire.

Well, that was the same.

And because of what Lionel said, Desire made a decision.

He made the decision to make himself limitless.

"If that's the case...then, I will go through it."

"I will...not choose from any of them, and master all of them."
