For the next week, Cain spent his days traveling across the Cicada Forest. He faced several King Beasts, taking their blood in order to improve his Blood Core while at the same time enhancing his techniques and honing his combat skills. It was excellent training, allowing him to refine his combat abilities and adapt to his cultivation and skills. 'Blood Hand is good, and its power should help me all the way to the Peak of the Wave Champion level, but I should seek another technique in the capital. For defense, the Biometal Herculean Body will help me even if I were to become a Titan, so there is no way to improve in that aspect. Sonic Dash is still sufficient regarding my speed, and my Sonic Blade Fusion Technique will serve me well until the Apotheosis Realm, so there is no issue with that.' As he formulated his plans, Cain and Krane finally reached a city. It was enormous, though smaller than the Imperial Lightning Fort. It lacked a Titan Tower or any similar structure but featured a massive castle beneath a mountain. Cain immediately recognized this place as one of the Eighty-One States. The Imperial Family was vast, not just due to the descendants of the Emperor but also because it included the family of the former Emperors. Unlike the Old World, the title of Emperor of Humankind was not inherited by birthright. It was a rule established by the First Titan and Emperor of the Godslayer Humankind before his voyage into the Astral Sea. Once an Emperor grew too powerful for Aether, a grand battle would commence among the Godslayer Humankind's mightiest warriors until one emerged as the victor. That individual would then assume the role of Emperor, and his family would become the Imperial Family. Out of respect for former Emperors, the previous imperial family retained their possessions and gained the title of Royal Family. They moved from the capital's core to one of the Eighty-One States, where they would take control of the land and manage their wealth. Of course, not all Eighty-One States were governed by previous Imperial Families since the current Emperor was only the Eighth Emperor of the Godsalyer Humankind. The others were under the control of various forces, primarily from the Imperial Court, but they also included the sons and daughters of Sector Dukes and other high-ranking nobles. Regardless of one's perspective, the Prometheus Sector teemed with promising figures, all eager to ascend to greater heights. "This should be the Azure State, under the control of the Royal Family of the Azure Emperor, the Sixth Emperor of the Godslayer Humankind." Cain nodded at Krane's words. A glint appeared in his eyes as he heard the name Azure Emperor. That man had been a formidable warrior, capable of immense power, but his legacy was tainted by the unruly behavior of his descendants and the persistent chaos they sowed. After the departure of the Azure Emperor, they encountered numerous challenges but remained influential. It was best to steer clear of them. Cain had no interest in the Azure Royal Family, so it posed no problem. His gaze settled on a hotel, and he proceeded with Krane. They encountered no hindrance when passing through the city gates, courtesy of Cain's rank, and it wasn't long before they arrived at their temporary lodging. "I'll allow you some time to reconsider your answer. The Azure Third Prince has shown kindness by inviting a commoner into his home, yet you are refusing it." Cain's eyes turned cold, and he no longer cared about the duo. He was willing to play along with their game to avoid trouble, but he would never lower his head to someone he didn't respect. Without saying a word, Cain and Krane moved to the side and continued walking forward, ignoring the group. There was no point in wasting his breath on any of them. "YOU DARE!" The young man's eyes flared with rage as he witnessed Cain's behavior and extended his arm to grab the back of Cain's neck. Despite having seen the recording of the Blood Sea battle and knowing of Cain's strength, he didn't care. In his mind, the opponent's strength didn't matter because no one would dare to harm a member of the Azure Royal Family. Unfortunately, the young man made a grave mistake since, for the first time in his life, he encountered someone who didn't care about his background. Before he could even touch Cain, a silver blur appeared, and the next thing he saw was his arm lying on the ground. "¡AHHHHH!" A scream of pain reverberated through the city as the young man immediately fell to the ground, blood oozing from his amputated limb. Krane's eyes were cold as he stared at the young man and calmly sheathed his sword. Cain didn't even bother to glance at the middle-aged man since this one was just fulfilling his duty. "You, you lowly commoner, dare to attack us!" The young woman with azure hair shouted and immediately stepped back while the guard moved forward. There were five of them, all Wave Kings. However, they were all old at the Early Stage, so their power was far from impressive. Cain glanced at the woman and couldn't help but shake his head. He was a supreme genius and had the battle strength to call himself a powerhouse, but there were still people who dared to speak to him in such a disrespectful manner. Soon, his eyes turned cold as he looked at the Wave Kings. "I am a Colonel of the Imperial Army. An attack against me is considered an act of treason." Cain's eyes burst with red light, and the old Wave Kings were immediately paralyzed. None of them dared to take a step forward. While their duty as guards for the Azure Royal Family was important, they could feel a great power emanating from the young man. Additionally, the strength of Krane alone was enough to handle them. Even more important was the fact that even though Cain lacked a noble title, he held the position of Colonel in the Imperial Army. That rank was no less prestigious than a Marquess, a title that even the Third Prince of the Azure Family could only match.
