136 Enrollnt
Akyra’s eyes began to glow with silver light as she stared at the man in front of her. She knows just how dangerous and wild this person could be.
“Although Jack did not exactly take Cain’s feelings into consideration, there was no malice in his heart when he proposed that idea. Besides, your boy seems inclined to a righteous path, so becoming a Healing Hypnotist is not a bad idea.”
Zarak glanced at Akyra, but the coldness in his eyes remained the sa. His invisible Ego Wave erged and instantly reached Jack, invading the middle-aged man’s brain.
Jack had no idea that a force capable of imnse destruction had invaded his body. With a single thought of Zarak, it would flood his mind with a killing intent that would destroy his ego.
“Enough!” Akyra shouted as a silver force field erged from her brain before crashing toward Zarak. That force field could level a building but could not reach the target, shocking the woman.
Akyra was a seasoned warrior and was able to adapt imdiately, infusing her Essence Wave into her Ego Wave, enhancing its power, and forcing Zarak to focus all of his attention on her.
Zarak’s eyes narrowed as the blue force field concentrated around his body, facing off Akyra’s silver one. Unlike the woman, he did not need to add his Astral Wave to it.
“Oh, you want to fight against !?”
The blue force field exploded with imnse power, making the room tremble and cracks erge beneath Zarak’s feet.
.....
Akyra grew solemn as she heard those words and knew that the man in front of her had no reservations about starting a fight between powerhouses in the center of the Imperial Lightning Fort.
Her Wave Cultivation was higher than Zarak, but she fell far behind the man regarding the Ego Eternal Path of Power. While at the initial stages, it could only grant auxiliary skills, at a higher realm, your Ego Wave was all you needed to fight.
Akyra took a deep breath and retracted her silver Ego Wave before calming her heart.
“The Collapsing Lightning Pillars can not fight among themselves. If we want to fight with soone, we must first battle against Leader.”
When Zarak heard that, instead of fear, a thriving battle spirit erged in his eyes. It was clear that the idea of fighting against the one Akyra referred to as Leader made his blood burn.
Akyra could not help but shake her head when she saw how Zarak reacted. She rembered how this man managed to beco one of the Collapsing Lightning Pillars and knew how battle-hungry he was.
“Jack will not ddle with that boy. I’ll give you my word.”
Zarak’s face grew serious as he heard that. Although unruly, he was not so arrogant as to think he could push Akyra around.
“I will hold you accountable. Also, if any of those geezers in the Hypnosis Association try to ddle with Cain’s path, I will take it as a personal offense.”
Akyra’s eyes widened when she heard that since she knew perfectly well what Zarak ant.
“Do you really think you could face the association on your own?”
Akyra knew that Zarak was extrely powerful, but the Hypnosis Association was one of the strongest organizations in the empire, with a military power that could compare to any Dukedom.
“Maybe I am not, but I have no bindings, so I could easily go on a rampage, killing many before vanishing from the empire.”
Akyra took a breath of cold air when she heard that. Even if the Hypnosis Association had Titans in its ranks, they were not omnipresent, and if Zarak wanted to hide, there was little they could do about it.
She took a mont to consider everything before speaking again.
“That boy has a heroic nature. Although he is usually imnsely wise and careful, he lacks self-awareness when it cos to helping others. He might want to pursue the Healing Hypnotist Path on his own. What would you do then?”
“Heroic nature?” A strange smile appeared on Zarak’s face when he heard that. He had seen Cain’s Alter-Ego and knew the boy’s incredible potential for destruction.
Zarak gave one last glance toward Akyra before turning around and vanishing from the building. Even then, his voice still echoed inside the room.
“If he chose that path, everything would be fine. However, I will not allow anyone to interfere with his free will, no matter how careful or crafty they are.”
Akyra sighed as she heard that and knew she had to forget any plan she could have for Cain.
—
Cain was unaware of everything that happened inside the License Bureau. He returned to his residence and, after bowing to his father’s altar, taking a shower, and eating a small al, began to go through the available courses.
The military specializations and Professions courses would begin in two weeks, and he needed to enroll in them before that happened.
There was one specialization that Cain had to take no matter what.
“Assassination.”
Now that Cain finally got the helt that could hide his appearance from most surveillance devices, he was one step closer to taking care of Clacius, the fat Mayor from Rouk City.
Cain still rembered the bodies he buried in the forest that night after his first mission. Although he took care of the responsible, Clacius was just as guilty as them in Cain’s mind.
During the Dark Races’ invasion of Gai, hundreds of thousands perished inside the Collapsing Lightning Sector, but Clacius managed to survive. It is like they said; cockroaches are truly resilient.
Cain’s current strength was more than enough to handle Clacius and the Level 4 Wave Warrior guard. However, killing a Mayor was much more complicated than killing a bunch of criminals in the forest.
The military would investigate Clacius’ death, and if Cain left the most minimal evidence, they would find it and brand him as a criminal, forcing him to live his life on the run.
Cain would not rest until that man died but would not give his life for that mission. That is why he needed to learn to slay soone, leaving no trace of his presence.
He went through the enrolling process with his [A.I. Chip Module], but just as he reached the last part, shock assaulted him.
“What! 10000 military credits to enroll in this class!”
Cain was shocked by that number. He had done so research, and in previous years, the class had only cost between 1000 and 3000 military credits.
Just 3000 military credits were very hard for most cadets to obtain, but 10000 was almost impossible unless they diminished the number of cultivation resources they used.
‘According to what I have read, the teacher decides the class’s value. I hope he is as good as the price he is asking for.’
There was nothing much Cain could do other than pay the military credits.
After finishing that, Cain began to look at the Profession classes and read the description of each one. Initially, he had no interest in them, but the fact there was one called Genetic Coder changed everything.
“Rune Crafter, Wave Crafter, Alchemist Master, Genetic Coder, Refinent Master.”
Cain was sincerely amazed by just how useful each of those Professions was and how much help they could provide a warrior. However, they also required a significant amount of ti to master, and ti was the most important resource of all.
If he just took them on a whim and did not commit himself to mastering those Professions, it would be a great mistake. Now that he was young was the most crucial ti for his training, and wasting ti would be a great sin.
Although those Professions could help his battle power, there was no need for him to take them when he could just buy what they made. Of course, it would not be cheap, but one of the reasons he beca a Hypnosis Master was so wealth would not be a problem.
After much deliberation, Cain decided to enroll in the Genetic Coder Class.
“The Absolute Life Form System is a fundantal part of my power, and I can not neglect sothing connected to one of its modules. It will only be three months, so even if I am wrong, it is not sothing I could not and with enough hard work.”
Now that everything was in order, it was ti for Cain to decide what he would do during the coming weeks. First, he sent a ssage to Lurin, informing this one that he enrolled in the Genetic Coder Class and asking if the offer was still in place.
After that, he took a wave crystal and a Blood Dragon Grass to train in the Fiend Devourer Cultivation Technique and the Blood Refinent Art.
Thanks to his Ego Wave, he could circulate both techniques at the sa ti, and the effect was even greater when he added Embryonic Breathing on top of that.
He stopped every few hours to allow his Rebirth Heart to rest and would use that ti to improve his Hypnosis Master skills.
