74 Answer (III)
Cain opened his eyes, and there was confusion in them as he attempted to remember what had just happened when a horrible pain assaulted him. It was as if someone had just split his brain in two.
“AAAHHH!” Cain grabbed his head with an expression of utter agony.
“What the hell!” The pain almost made him pass out again, but luckily it did not last long. After a few seconds, it was gone, and he heard a voice.
“Are you fine?”
Hearing a voice at any time was not odd for Cain due to Apex’s presence, but the one speaking was a woman. He stood up and saw that he was in his residence, and Levi and Beelze were with him.
“What are you two doing here?” Cain was perplexed about the entire situation. The last thing he remembered was his training with Wink, but after that, everything became blurry. There were memories, but it was like trying to remember an old dream.
Levi and Beelze looked at each other before nodding. The first one adopted a solemn expression as he began to speak.
“After you black out, we offered to bring you to your residence. As for what happened before that.” Levi paused before sending a video to Cain through his A.I. Chip.
Cain was full of questions, so he did not hesitate before opening the video. Shock immediately appeared in his eyes as he saw the power and skills he displayed in that semi-unconscious state.
.....
It was just too outrageous, and not just his domain over the Four Waves Arts, but his scheming mind and tactics reached an incredible level.
“This is really me?” Even though the video clearly showed him, Cain found it hard to fathom the one fighting against Wink with the current him.
“You are not the only one surprised. Your actions shocked the entire class, including us. We were wondering if you had some secret skill, but by your expression, it seemed that you didn’t know what had just happened.” Beelze spoke calmly, not hiding her curiosity about Cain’s condition or interest in that state.
Neither she nor Levi would pressure Cain to obtain information about that state, but that did not mean they would pretend they did not care or were interested. Honesty was the main pillar of any true friendship.
Cain stared at the duo for a few moments before sighing.
“In the past, there had been times when my mind became extremely clear, granting me absolute control over my emotions, heightening my senses, and improving my control over my Astral Wave. In all of them, I was conscious, and my skills never reached such an outrageous level as displayed in the video.”
Levi and Beelze showed a small smile when they heard that, and their posture became much friendlier. The information Cain gave them would grant them nothing, but it was proof of their trust in each other.
“You should be careful from now on. Many envious people would think that you have some secret treasure or ability due to your actions, and they could target you.” Beelze’s voice grew cold as she spoke those words, and her attitude affected the other two.
Being a monstrous genius and lacking background was never a good combination. It would not be that odd if some Noble Families attempted to kidnap Cain to look for the secret behind his abilities.
Cain frowned as he heard that, since from now on, he could not simply leave the Imperial Lightning Fort. The lack of power again restrained his movements, just like with Salar Jones.
However, unlike before, when he felt a crushing pressure assaulting his mind, enlightenment appeared in his eyes, and he smiled.
‘Hahaha, how did I not see it before? It is simple. I just need to grow stronger.’
A flash of red light crossed Cain’s eyes as he found the answer to all the problems that had been assaulting him.
POWER.
It might sound simple, but it was not. Of course, the idea of solving his problems with raw power crossed Cain’s mind before, but he never truly entertained it since it was not something he could achieve by just wanting it.
However, in that video, he deployed a battle power that could have allowed him to face a Level 5 Wave Warrior. That meant he had the strength and potential to solve his problems with his fists.
The blockade in Cain’s mind shattered after that, and he felt an inner peace that relaxed his entire body.
Levi and Beelze had no idea what was happening in Cain’s mind, but they noticed the flash of red light in his eyes and how his entire demeanor changed. It had a calm surface, but a force was ready to burst beneath it.
“Since you are fine, we should be leaving.” Beelze stood up as she said that, but then her eyes caught the sight of a small altar.
She and Levi had been in the room for almost an hour, but they were entirely focused on Cain and did not have the time to look around.
The man had green eyes and black hair, just like Cain, but that was where the similarities ended. Beelze even noticed physical characteristics that made her narrow her eyes.
“Is that your father?”
Cain noticed Beelze’s expression as she asked that question, and he smiled.
“Yes, that man is my father, the only one I have. That will always be true even if we do not share blood.” Cain stood and went to the altar before perming a deep bow.
“I am an orphan. According to what my father told me, he found me in a forest near a battlefield. From that moment, he cared for me and raised me to become the man I am today.”
Levi and Beelze were a little surprised to find out the almost mythical origin of Cain. After that, the duo did leave for their residences, leaving Cain alone.
Once he was alone again, Cain adopted a severe expression. The way he behaved in the video was incredible and showed immense power, but while Cain would not hesitate to kill someone on a battlefield, he would not do it in mere training.
If Wink had acted a little slower, that piece of steel would have pierced into his brain. Even a Wave Champion could not endure such a traumatic injury.
“Apex, did you or the Absolute Life Form System have anything to do with that behavior?”
Apex’s attitude toward Cain had always been one of superiority, but this time he did not dally or play games. The stronger you were, the more importance you gave your ego and personality.
“The Absolute Life Form System can not act without your commands. Although I have the power to kill you, I can not directly affect your personality. The cause for your state during that video was neither of us.”
Cain nodded as he understood there was no reason for Apex to lie to him, not to mention that the actions displayed in the video were not exactly wise.
No matter how exceptional his talent was, had Cain killed Wink, nothing good would have happened.
“Then what just happened?” Cain had always been curious about the odd state he entered when pushed to his limits. Since they had never affected his personality, he did not worry too much, but things had changed.
“I have been doing some research from the moment that first happened during your encounter with the Atrox. While I have found records in the Empire Science Academy containing some clues, the information that could give us a clearer answer is out of reach for the current [Basic Hacking] tool.”
Cain could only sigh as he heard that. There was not much he could do if things were like that. He would just have to wait for the [A.I. Chip Module] to grow stronger or find another way to get that information.
For the time being, Cain focused on the things he could control, like his cultivation. Now that his mind had finally regained its peace, he could train with complete calm.
Cain felt his Astral Wave revolving around his body even faster than before, nurturing every cell of his body and increasing his energy pool.
After a few hours, he stopped cultivating, ate a large meal, took a long shower, and slept comfortably.
The next day, like usual, Cain went to the auditorium for his class, but he noticed how many people kept looking at him on the way. It was clear that yesterday’s events had already spread around the military academy.
Cain simply ignored their glances. None of them had the power to do anything to him, and even if they had, none would dare to attack him inside the Imperial Lightning Fort.
As Cain was about to reach the auditorium, he noticed Levi in the distance. He got closer to this one and immediately noticed something odd.
Levi’s head had no hair left, and his skin looked smooth like a baby’s.
Although those characteristics could draw some laughs, Cain was actually amazed.
“You went through marrow washing?”
