Cain's Ego Wave invaded the Wave King, and the fear within this one was so immense that he could put the man into hypnosis without a problem. It was only then that he turned toward Farius, using his Ego Wave to monitor the man's heart rate and brainwaves.
While the most effective path would have been to hypnotize Farius as well, Cain was not confident in his ability to forcefully compel a Middle Wave King, and he could not afford to suffer a backlash.
Instead of hypnotizing Farius, Cain planned to monitor this one's vitals to detect any lies and would use Timothy and the Early Wave King to fill in the blanks.
"Answer my question honestly and thoroughly, or else you will end up like him."
Farius knew he needed to maintain a strong front if he wanted to survive, but the fear was too much. The idea of lying faded from his mind when he saw the other two being hypnotized since they might uncover his farce.
"Is this the real Secret Vault of the Azure Royal Family?"
"Ye... Yes. This is the vault the Elders and even the King use to collect their shady belongings!"
Cain was able to relax, knowing they were in the right place. After all, Timothy might have lied from the beginning, and this place was solely a secret prison and nothing more.
Most likely, the reason why Timothy brought Ocius here, despite intending to kill this one from the beginning, was because they could take care of him without drawing attention from the outside.
"Are there any more people beyond the metal gate? Will they be alerted of our arrival?"
Farius immediately shook his head, but Cain's eyes began to lose their light, becoming emotionless to the point that it terrified the Middle Wave King.
"These are the special space treasures where each Azure Elder stored their questionable belongings, right?"
Farius immediately nodded.
"Which one is used by the Azure King?"
Farius froze as he heard that question. If the belongings of an Elder were to be stolen, he would be in serious trouble, but if those belonging to the King vanished, then there was no way he would survive.
However, as soon as Cain turned to him, the fear in the Middle Wave King overcame his rational mind, and he immediately pointed to one black pillar on the far left. It did not seem any different than the others, which made sense after all – why would the Azure King want his pillar drawing more attention than needed?
"I cannot open them; only the owners can. I swear I am telling the truth!"
Farius shouted as he was terrified that Cain would demand he open access to the storage dimension inside the pillar.
Luckily for Farius, Cain never expected this one to open the storage dimension; after all, it would not make sense for a guard to have access to all of them.
Cain walked to the storage dimension of the Azure King and placed his hand over it. He did not attempt to use his Ego Wave to invade the artifact since he was sure that he would not be able to do so.
Cain's Ego Wave was formidable, especially for someone so young, but the defenses of this place surely must be able to hold off the Ego Wave of someone at the Second Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power.
Fortunately, Cain had access to another type of force field. It could not cover as much distance as his Ego Wave or have control of the environment and his body, but when it came to scanning, it was an entire level ahead.
