"Hahaha, please don't make fun of . I ignited my Soul Bloodline less than fifty years ago. I am still far from the Late Divine Ascension Rank."
Kouto and Gigant laughed as they talked to each other, completely ignoring the trio from the Kraken Clan, prompting an unsightly expression to appear on Marcellus' face.
Kouto noticed the hatred in Marcellus, and his eyes grew cold as he turned to the man.
"What are you still doing here? Hmph, even if I was not here, you could do nothing against Duke Gigant. Leave if you don't want to stay here forever."
Fear appeared in the Apotheosis Masters from the Kraken Clan, and while Marcellus was able to maintain his composure, he was also threatened by the power of the man. Ultimately, the Divine Ascension Master from the Kraken Clan only glanced at Cain one last ti before turning around and leaving with the other two.
After the trio vanished in the distance, Kouto turned toward Cain, and a small smile appeared.
"You're the young man my brother has talked so much about."
Cain stared at the man in the sky and clasped his hand before bowing slightly.
"I appreciate your help."
"Hahaha, it was nothing. Besides, I am always happy to push back the Kraken Clan when possible."
Kouto smiled before turning toward Duke Gigant.
"I assu you're going to the capital, answering the Imperial Summoning."
"That is right."
After obtaining confirmation from Gigant, Kouto turned back to Cain again.
"If that's the case, why don't you follow , young man? It will be better and safer if you stay with our Sacred Domain while the Duke is with the Imperial Court. Don't worry about the imperial order, as my authority in the court is more than enough to reverse it."
Cain stared at Kouto as he heard those words. His goal was to use an intercontinental teleportation formation, and he was sure that it would be a while before he could get a eting with the Imperial Court, as they were currently busy handling the sudden catastrophe that had assaulted the Hyperion Continent.
After a mont, Cain nodded to Kouto. After all, he planned to visit the Zanginis Clan, so this worked out for the better.
"I am very thankful for your help during this problem. I will not forget it."
Before rising from the ship, Cain turned to Gigant and clasped his hand while performing a deep bow. The Duke stayed true to his word and did not discard him, even as that ant getting on the wrong side of the Kraken Clan.
Duke Gigant noticed the solemnity in Cain's eyes and clasped his hand as well.
"I appreciate your words. I will communicate with the Imperial Court about your desire for a eting."
"Then I thank you again."
Cain nodded to Duke Gigant and rose to the sky until he was out of the Star Cruiser's force field and stood next to Kouto.
Duke Gigant nodded to the duo before waving his hand, making the ship resu its march, flashing toward the center of the Sector.
"Well, let's not waste ti. My ho is not far from here, so we could fly."
Kouto spoke to Cain, and after seeing him nod, both flashed into the distance.
"Oh, Essence Wave?"
They had just started their journey when the Deus Behemoth shouted with surprise and confusion. Before, he had not noticed it, but now that he saw how Cain used shadow streams from the bottom of his feet to fly, it was impossible not to notice.
"Desmond told you followed the Astral Rebirth Path of Power."
"My Rebirth Heart was crippled during an encounter with one of the Ten Dark Kings, so I recultivated and followed the Essence Evolution Path of Power."
Cain chose not to reveal the whole truth of his condition to Kouto, understanding that for a secret weapon to be effective, it was better to fool both friend and foe. Besides, there was a limit to the level of trust he would show the brother of a friend he had not seen in more than a year.
Kouto showed a hint of pity when he heard that Cain's Rebirth Heart had been crippled, but then his eyes widened as he realized the speed at which Cain could fly. While movent speed was not equal to battle power, it was not that far off.
"Wait, if you suffered a wound to your heart after eting with my brother, you must have spent less than a year and a half to reach your current level!"
Overcoming the psychological impact of losing your cultivation was sothing many people could not do, yet it seed that Cain was able to not only do that but rise to an extrely high level in less than two years.
Cain noticed the surprise in the Deus Behemoth's eyes and simply nodded.
"I encountered several lucky chances which allowed my cultivation to advance fast without sacrificing my foundation."
Kouto noticed that Cain was not the talkative type, but he didn't get offended and continued flying.

There were several Wave Beasts' lairs beneath them, many with power that could threaten Apotheosis Realm Masters, yet none dared to approach the duo as the Deus Behemoth's aura was too great.
After nearly an hour, Cain saw a massive city built around what could only be described as an enormous volcano. However, as he focused on the volcano, sothing even more amazing appeared in front of his eyes.
At first, it was shadowy, but soon, Cain saw a gargantuan hundreds of kiloters long with its body encompassed around the volcano. Before he could even understand what such a majestic beast was doing here, it flashed toward him.
Just as Cain thought the creature would trample over him and Kouto, it vanished and was replaced by an old man with an imposing physique and aura.
Although the man stopped right in front of them, the montum of his body did not simply fade, and a massive gale clashed against Cain and Kouto. The Deus Behemoth maintained his standing without a problem, but the gale nearly blew Cain away.
