Angar Aegon, the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, and the Titans and Divine Ascension Masters who flew back to the Golden Core City couldn't help but glance at Cain. The young man was injured, and his energy had been depleted, yet there was no sign of instability in his life force, indicating he hadn't needed to resort to extre asures to face the Blood King.
Cain could sense the gazes of the powerhouses but wasn't in the mood to talk as a ferocious scream of rage and murderous intent consud his mind.
'Fight.' 'Keep killing.' 'Get revenge.' 'Return to bloodshed.'
Those screams echoed louder and louder in Cain's mind, trying to trigger an emotional response and twist his ego and personality in the process.
Upon arriving at the battlefield, Cain's first action wasn't to activate the 81 Deus Behemoth Heaven Suppression Formation but to scrutinize the faces of the Collapsing Lightning Alliance soldiers.
Upon seeing Zarak, Shura, and Levi among the ranks, Cain felt relieved, as if an imnse weight had fallen from his shoulders, but he also noticed many familiar faces missing. He understood the nature of the people with whom he had bonded in the past during his ti in the Collapsing Lightning Sector and realized their absence likely ant they were too injured to participate or had perished.
As a Master of Order, Cain's heart and soul could endure the loss of anyone, even those integral to his Life Matrix. Although it would be painful and challenging, he was capable of overcoming it, yet the unbridled fury of the Astral Blood Beast made it particularly difficult to calm those emotions.
It took every ounce of focus in Cain's mind not to allow those emotions to distract him, so it was no wonder he kept quiet the entire ti.
Once the powerhouses and the 81 tallic pyramids returned to the Golden Core City, the lower-level soldiers who had managed to safely retreat looked up in awe. Their admiration was primarily focused on Cain, who stood out like a divine god-king against the sky with his golden eyes and red robe.
Suddenly, a figure darted into the sky and rushed toward Cain. The onlookers were taken aback but remained silent upon recognizing the individual.
Cain watched as the figure approached rapidly before embracing him tightly, her tears streaming down her face. The newcor was a young woman with red hair, green eyes, and a striking beauty—Shura.
Shura couldn't contain her tears as she clung to Cain, fearing he might disappear if she let go. The shock she experienced upon seeing the arrival of the man she loved and believed to be dead was overwhelming. Still, years on the battlefield had tempered her mind, allowing her to cover the retreat of the Wave Warrior and Wave Champion when commanded.
However, with the imdiate threat of battle gone, she allowed her emotions to overflow, overwheld with joy and relief at seeing Cain alive.
Initially, Cain's deanor was detached as the Power of Order was working at full power, severing all his emotion to keep his mind calm, but soon, a warm smile appeared on his face as he embraced the young man, soothingly stroking her head.
'This is nice.'
This mont of tenderness lifted a significant burden from Cain's shoulders, allowing his mind and heart to attain a deep sense of peace. Although Shura was a vulnerability for him, she also served as a source of comfort, easing his heart and mind, sothing that would beco increasingly important in the future. Like a bow's string, he recognized the need for relaxation to prevent snapping.
After a few monts, Cain gently took Shura's shoulders and eased her away from his chest, looking at her with a kind and loving smile.
"We will have our ti, I promise."
Shura nodded softly, understanding the situation, and with one final smile filled with love, she rejoined the rest of the soldiers.
Cain's gaze lingered on Shura for a few more seconds before his smile faded, and he turned to Angar and the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar.
"There will be ti for questions later," he stated.
The True Titans narrowed their eyes but nodded without hesitation, and the next mont, the trio vanished, teleporting into the Titan Tower.
Although the powerhouses and the rest of the soldiers were brimming with curiosity about the young man and how he managed to arrive on the battlefield with such majestic weapons of war, their imdiate concern right now was to tend to their wounds.

Cain, the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, and Angar appeared in the war room of the Titan Tower.
"Please bring out the Collapsing Lightning Duke. We need to be fast."
Before the two True Titans could inquire further, Cain spoke and extended his hand, from which a fla with 21 colors appeared.
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar and Angar were astounded by the sight of the multicolored fla. He and Angar sensed its extraordinary power but were uncertain of its nature.
If anyone else had presented such enigmatic power, the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar might have hesitated, but Cain had proven himself in battle, transforming a dire situation into a flawless withdrawal.
Although the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar didn't understand Cain's intentions, he trusted the young man wouldn't do anything to harm the Collapsing Lightning Duke. Without delay, he retrieved the Duke's body from his space ring.
Cain's eyes narrowed upon seeing the dire state of the Collapsing Lightning Duke. The Duke's flesh and bones were scorched, most of his vital organs shattered, his Rebirth Heart deeply wounded, and his skull severely fractured.
The fact that the Duke was still alive despite such injuries was astonishing. Under normal circumstances, recovery would likely result in a significant drop in cultivation. However, that wouldn't be the case, thanks to Cain's ability to harness the formidable power of Tribulation Enhancent.
Without wasting a mont, Cain introduced the 21 Revolution Fla into the Collapsing Lightning Duke's body and utilized the [Enhancent Module] to perform a flawless 21 Revolution Refinent.
