"¡BOOM!" Finally, a blast occurred, but it was not due to a clash between the blonde Blood Champion and Cain. It happened when a young man with short black hair dived toward the ground between them. The newcomer had short black hair, green eyes, and an impressive two-meter and twenty-centimeter stature. He came from the dragon with Shura in it, and his cultivation was the same as the blonde Blood Champion from the Purist Path, but the physical pressure he unleashed was much greater. "Surin!" The blonde man chasing after Cain shouted, and he adopted a solemn expression, raising his guard and moving back. "It is enough, Jeremy. Go back to your group and stop making a fool of yourself. If you want to keep delaying things, the one you will have to face is me!" Surin's blue eyes glowed with a golden light, deploying willpower at the peak of the Wave Champion Rank. Jeremy stared at Surin for a moment but did not dare to fight against this one with so many people watching over them and simply sneered before turning around and returning to the Purist Path's Wave Beast. Cain saw how Jeremy left and then turned toward Surin before nodding. "Thanks for that." Although he was not in danger, Jeremy was becoming a problem since Cain could not solely focus on defense in a situation like that. After all, his opponent's energy pool was much greater than his. Surin turned around and glanced at Cain with cold eyes before speaking in a stern voice. "If you can not fight, your presence will only become a hindrance to Lady Shura." Not wanting to waste any more time, Surin jumped out of the ground, landing softly on the Wave Beast right behind Shura. Cain noticed the animosity in Surin's eyes. Still, unlike Jeremy and the rest of the people in the Purist Path, the young man's feelings targeted him, not his ethnicity or bloodline. 'Well, at least he hates me for the content of my character nor for the blood running through my veins.' That thought nearly made Cain burst into laughter as he trashed such an iconic slogan from his Old World. He did not want to waste time either, so he jumped to the Wave Beast and sat in the back, away from the rest of the Blood Champions. Ametria glanced at Cain with disdain and loath for a moment but did not keep trying to make a scene and patted the Wave Beast's head, making this one rise into the air and fly away at supersonic speed. On the other hand, Shura could not help keeping her eyes on Cain. She remembered clearly how that young man managed to speak back to the Blood Duke and how his willpower seemed capable of shattering everything on his path. Someone like that could not possibly be a coward that was too afraid of fighting a Wave Champion. 'Was his bravery with my uncle all a facade?' Shura could not help but think as she stared at Cain, trying to decipher just what kind of person the young man was. "My Lady?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn Surin's words brought Shura back to reality, and she shook her head, erasing all those thoughts and focusing on her mission. She tapped the Wave Beast's head, and this one rose into the sky, leaving Blood Sea. As soon as both dragons vanished from their sight, people on the ground began to disperse, but the same could not be said about the powerhouses in the sky. ... Scan of Vessel completed --- Name: Cain Laurifer Race: Godslayer Humankind Path of Power: Astral Rebirth (Level 9 Wave Warrior) Lineage: Avernus Lineage Wave Talent: Middle Tier 7 ( High Tier 7) --- Stats: Strength: 14.5-->16.7 Agility: 8.1-->9.2 Vitality: 14.1-->15.8 Wave: 9.0-->10.4 Blood Energy: 12.5-->12.9 --- Marrow washing: 99.07% completion --- Note: Wave Virus inside Vessel enhanced Wave Talent by 20.1%] Cain smiled as he saw his stats. He had felt the surging power in his body after the breakthrough to Level 9, but it was even better than he expected. The one that did not obtain a massive improvement was his Blood Energy, but the reason for that only made Cain's smile grow wider. His body finally reached saturation, and he could raise his Blood Refinement Art to the next level. Rising to the third level meant the generation of Blood Runes, which was an extremely complicated process, but Cain had already mastered it during his journey with Bloodless #1. Not wanting to waste time, Cain took a deep breath and adopted a meditative position before closing his eyes. He took control of the Blood Energy in his body, redirecting it into his Rebirth Heart, where it began to condense. Thirty minutes later, Cain's body trembled as a glowing crimson rune was now inside his heart.
