Abin, her expression as calm as ever, stood before the capsule containing Cain. Nevertheless, deep down, she was astonished by what was unfolding.

Unlike the capsule holding Levi, the liquid surrounding Cain was in a state of violent turmoil. Cain’s body was hyperactive, with every single cell growing stronger by the minute.

Thanks to Embryonic Breathing, Cain was able to fully exploit the immense energy within the B-Grade Blood Solution, propelling his Astral Wave cultivation forward in massive leaps. And it did not end there; he was instinctively using the full power of his Ego Wave to circulate the Blood Refinement Art.

As the name suggests, Blood Solutions were crafted from the blood of Wave Beasts. A C-Grade solution contained the blood essence of ten Wave Champion-level beasts, so one could only imagine the potency of a B-Grade.

The Blood Refinement Art was operating at peak efficiency, utilizing the incredibly pure blood essence within the B-Grade solution to temper Cain’s flesh and blood. It progressed at a truly staggering speed, and the only factor slowing it down was the current limit of Cain’s cultivation.

Abin’s A.I. Chip was linked to the Recovery Capsule, allowing her to monitor Cain’s condition. She was impressed by the sheer speed at which his cultivation and physical form were improving.

All of Cain’s wounds had healed over the past few weeks, including his left arm, which had regrown even stronger than before.

Usually, while regenerating a missing limb was not impossible, it would drain a significant amount of vitality and negatively impact an individual’s cultivation. Nira had suffered such side effects when she restored her own missing arm because she had only been able to use a D-Grade Blood Solution, but Cain faced no such problem.

Not only did the B-Grade Blood Solution grant Cain all the vitality he could possibly need, but his Blood Refinement Art allowed that blood energy to infiltrate every single cell.

Suddenly, Cain’s eyes began to twitch. His body and cultivation had reached their peak, fully excavating their potential, and it was time for him to wake.

Abin watched closely as Cain opened his eyes. Unlike Levi, despite being submerged in the thick red liquid, Cain did not lose focus; his eyes immediately glowed with a red light as he locked onto the woman staring at his naked body.

Even though Cain and Levi’s starting points were different—with the former being conscious when placed in the capsule—it was still impressive for him to display that level of focus and composure immediately upon waking.

The Recovery Capsule began to drain the B-Grade Blood Solution before opening, allowing Cain to step out.

Cain’s eyes flared with red light as he stared at the woman without showing any emotion. He had no idea who she was and refused to show any weakness in her presence.

Abin noticed how Cain raised his guard. She made no comment, instead handing him a blue robe with a raging ocean engraved on the back before offering a slight bow.

Young Lord, allow me to introduce myself. I am Abin, Lord Zarak’s assistant and his disciple. He is waiting for us, so please wear the robe and come with me.

Cain stared at the woman for a moment, and when he sensed no animosity from her, the red light vanished from his eyes. The coldness on his face faded, replaced by a calm smile.

He nodded before donning the robe, and the moment he put it on, it instantly adapted to his frame.

Is this robe a Wave Artifact?

Yes, Young Lord. Although it has no special ability, it possesses great resilience and can provide a second layer of protection beneath your Wave Armor. It also bears the Valentine Family’s emblem on the back.

Cain nodded as he heard Abin’s thorough explanation, but an odd expression crossed his face.

Why do you keep calling me Young Lord? Cain’s background was extremely humble, even more so after losing his father and receiving the initial assessment of his Wave Talent. He was not accustomed to people treating him like some sort of scion.

Even though we are both Lord Zarak’s disciples, you are a core disciple, the only one. You are now considered a member of the Valentine Family, with a position just beneath the Patriarch. Abin spoke with a respectful tone, making the difference in their status clear.

Cain was surprised to hear that. He knew that becoming Lord Zarak’s core disciple would elevate his standing, but he had not believed it would be to such an extent.

Although being treated like a scion felt strange to Cain, there was no way he would deny such a fortunate opportunity.

Please accompany me. We should not keep Lord Zarak waiting.

Cain nodded and walked alongside Abin. Many thoughts raced through his mind as he analyzed his new status.

How many people are in the Valentine Family, and who is the best among the young generation?

Even though it was not his intention, Cain knew that his status in the Valentine Family would displease many. There were bound to be youngsters who thought he did not deserve his place and would try to make things difficult for him.

It was better to know them ahead of time so he could figure out how to handle them sooner rather than later.

There are only two people in the Valentine Family: you and Lord Zarak.

An awkward smile appeared on Cain’s face when he heard that. He had been forming all sorts of plans in his mind, only to realize there was no enemy to speak of.

How is Levi? Cain knew that Levi had also entered a capsule to heal just like him, so he was not worried that something might have happened to him.

Cadet Levi woke up ten days ago. He is currently in the fort.

Cain nodded before gazing at the ring on his finger. Inside it lay a special coffin holding Beelze’s body.

The coffin was a gift from Zarak and would prevent Beelze’s body from deteriorating. That would give Cain the time to contact her family and hand her over.

Just as they were about to reach the teleportation matrix, Cain’s eyes narrowed as the system finished its analysis of him.

When he saw those stats, a sense of shock and awe washed over him. He had felt powerful when he left the capsule, but he was amazed that he had reached such a level.

The Blood Refinement Art had done wonders, vastly improving his strength and physical endurance. As for the sharp rise in his speed, he took it as a side effect of enhancing his bloodline.

However, the one that truly caught Cain’s attention was his vitality. Increasing a stat to 1 point was a bottleneck that only those who reached Level 4 could typically surpass.

In the Godslayer Humankind Empire, when your stats are no longer measured in decimal numbers, you are considered to have risen beyond a mere mortal and become a Godslayer Human.

I am not even at the limit of Level 3 yet. I should be able to achieve 1 point before entering Level 4, improving my foundation.

Is everything fine, Young Lord?

Abin’s voice pulled Cain from his thoughts. He had been so engrossed in his analysis that he had stopped walking without saying a word. In all fairness, the changes he had undergone over the last few months, especially after using the capsule with the B-Grade Blood Solution, had been outstanding.

Yes, I got distracted. There is nothing to worry about. Let’s go.

Abin did not question Cain’s behavior further and simply nodded before the duo reached the teleportation matrix and vanished.

As soon as they appeared in the room, a blue force flooded the space. It was truly mighty, converging with full strength on Cain’s location.

The last time Cain faced Zarak’s Ego Wave, he had nearly passed out from the sheer pain. Yet, now that he had reached the First Realm in the Ego Eternal Path of Power, he could stand straight and take it head-on.

Of course, Zarak was not using the raw strength of his Ego Wave, as that would have the power to crush a Wave Champion to a pulp without effort. He was merely testing Cain’s mental defenses.

After a moment, the blue force vanished, and laughter echoed through the room.

Hahaha, good, very good. To think you could enter Mind Over Body at fourteen while being a Level 2 Wave Warrior. You are a true genius, brat. Zarak laughed again, and there was clear excitement on his face.
