Astrid's eyes lit up with fervor as she heard those words. For her, the world of Tribulation Enhancent was not just a field of study, but a realm of endless fascination and thrill. She could spend days and nights imrsed in its complexities, forgetting even the most basic needs like food.
She was not only a beyond divine talent in Tribulation Enhancent, but was also obsessed with it. If you combine both, you will give birth to a monster. However, the focus soon returned to her eyes as she nervously turned toward the Atrox Immortus Emperor and the Ten Swords.
And she was not alone since Duke William also glanced at Ishmael and the rest of the Atrox True Titans with a flash of trepidation.
Cain was confused for a mont by the reaction of the duo, but things beca a little clearer as he saw how Ishmael and the Ten Swords glanced at the father and daughter with sharp eyes. "Oh, I see. You keep Astrid's ability as a Tribulation Enhancer as a secret."
Duke William could not help but lower his head toward Ishmael as Cain uttered those words. He had seen his daughter's talent and knew just how impressive Tribulation Enhancent was, so he did not dare to reveal it to the Atrox Immortus Empire, at least not until he was a God and could protect her from anyone with dark thoughts about her abilities.
Ishmael did not say a word, but his eyes showed a flash of coldness. Tribulation Enhancent was not new for him, as he had heard rumors about its power from the great general of the Scarlet Inquisition.
"Ahhh, you made a serious offense, but we are in a ti of war against the Dark Sky, the enemy of the world, and all six Sacred Races. You can make up for your mistakes on the battlefield." In the end, the Atrox Immortus Emperor only shook his head.
As an emperor, he was angry at William for hiding sothing so precious that could help the entire race, but as a father, he understood the reason why the man did it.
Duke William's eyes widened, and a broad smile appeared as he heard those words. He clasped his hands and perford a deep bow. "I thank you, Your Highness, for ignoring this mistake. I will not forget your rcy."
Ishmael's expression was complicated as he nodded. He did not have much room either, as he did not dare pass punishnt on William, much less on Astrid, considering that they were clearly important to the Scarlet King.
"Since that is settled, what do you think about my invitation? I believe that with your skills, you will be able to attain great power very fast and be of help in the war against Dark Sky." Cain smiled toward Astrid and spoke in a voice full of delight and thrill, eager to bring the young woman into the [Samsara Arsenal Module].
It would be a lie to say that Astrid was not interested, but as she looked at Cain, her mind and emotions were still in turmoil. She did not know what the right path would be. Luckily for the young woman, she had help.
"Several Rune Masters, Genetic Coders, Wave Crafters, and Alchemy Masters will also march into that training heaven of the Scarlet King. Having a Tribulation Enhancer in our race will greatly help and save lives, so if the young Lady wants to go, she should do it." Ishmael saw the hesitation in Astrid's eyes and chose to intervene.
The man was wise, and promoting talent was always a good path, especially if he could gain goodwill from the Scarlet King in the process.
The words of encouragent from the Atrox Immortus Emperor dispelled most of Astrid's worries, and as she saw her father nod, approving of her choice, she turned toward Cain with resolution. "I am willing to accept your invitation."
"Great!" Cain was thrilled to hear those words from the woman. He was delighted to have her in his group, and while he did not realize it or maybe just ignored it, a part of him was thrilled she was close and safe during this ti of war.
"I will be waiting above the Sea of End, in front of the Bridge of Hope. In three days, I want to see the troops start marching.
You should bring the masters and the paynt for eradication of the Tier 0 Dark Factions." Cain turned toward Ishmael for a second as he uttered those words before appearing in front of Astrid, touching the woman's shoulder, and vanished before anyone could even perceive him.
William was left dumbfounded as Cain and his daughter vanished into thin air. However, sothing else ca to his mind as he rembered the young man's last words. He turned to Ishmael, his voice trembling with uncertainty. "Your Highness, what did the Scarlet King an with Tier 0 Dark Factions?"
"What you heard. That man destroyed all Tier 0 Dark Factions in Kronos." Ishmael did not bother with fancy words and just revealed the truth before turning toward the Ten Swords. "We need to work."
...
Astrid's eyes widened in awe as she found herself in a vast dinsion, the first breath of the pink mist propelling her cognitive abilities to new heights. As she took in the grandeur of her surroundings, her gaze was drawn to the majestic book at the center, and a profound sense of reverence washed over her.
"Let's go." Cain smiled as he saw the woman's expression and calmly led her closer to the Codex of Infinite Pathways.
Thousands of people were training with it, but there was no real limit as you just needed to send your Ego Wave in. Most of the masters and cultivators present were in deep ditation and did not even notice the Scarlet King.
However, there were so awake and resting, who imdiately focused on Cain's figure and were surprised to see him approaching with a foreign woman.
