Sylas didn't answer immediately, nor did he relax.
Honestly speaking, if you were talking about the odds of him reaching this place in their conversation, he had already been 100% confident. The reason he had told the Thryskai that he only had 70% assurance of leaving this place despite that was because he knew it would be the pinnacle of foolishness to assume he had ever fully painted an A-tier into a corner.
No. Fanelei was no normal A-tier. She was a Legend.
As far as Sylas could tell, that was a title reserved for someone who had already touched the threshold of S-tier. But the difference didn't matter all that much to him now.
He wasn't the only intelligent person in the world, he wasn't the only one with trump cards, and he was trying to pin down and restrict the actions and future of a person who understood far more about this world than he did.
