Chapter 297 297: Initiating Fusion
"So, son, I've heard that the school and the military successfully repelled the beast tide? What happened? Can you tell us the details? Some of my sources reported to me that three extraordinary shadows fused to become a transcendent shadow and killed five-roar level beasts?"
At the dining table of the De Vera mansion, the family of five was having breakfast. The maids, head maids, and butler Alfred were standing on the side like statues. Explore new worlds at empire
On the other hand, Caleb's mother looked concerned as she scanned Calebs's body with her eyes. What if her son died in that beast tide? What if she suffered a grave injury that he wasn't telling them?
"Are you okay, son? Tell us if you've been hurt somewhere... I don't know what the school management of no.3 high school was thinking! Why would they let students participate in such a dangerous undertaking!? I've heard that a lot of students died. How would they explain it to the family of the students?"
Klein stood up from his seat and patted his mother's shoulder. "Mom, calm down... Well, it was a city-level danger. They didn't have a choice but to deploy the students of No.3 High School since they were in desperate need of combatants. After all, they are students of the elite school and every human that can fight is expected to face the common enemy of humans in an emergency. Anyone reported that can fight but didn't help would be deemed criminal. We don't want Adam to become wanted, don't we?"
'Well, what a bullshit rule... But it might be also the reason why humans can survive until this day.'
Isn't there something wrong with this world? Letting students fight just because they can? However, he doesn't have much to say. After all, this is a world that faces the dangers of both aliens and demon beasts. Rules that are foreign to him are normal here. After all, a desperate situation requires desperate measures sometimes.
"That's true. There was a transcendent shadow that saved all of us. It showed itself up like a hero when the roar-level beast was about to kill the commander. What happened is, that most of the sprout-level beasts of the fifth wave ran away. As for how strong the transcendent shadow is... Well, he slapped five-roar level beasts that are equivalent to five extraordinary realms to meat paste..." Then Caleb shifted his eyes to his mom. "I'm okay, mom. You don't have to worry. I barely have to move during the war."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Well, he isn't lying. He barely needs to move to deal with weaklings.
Delvin, who was busy munching his egg-fried rice, chuckled. "You barely need to move? Doesn't that mean you barely fought? Hahahaha!"
"Still, it's not quite right to let students fight!"
Seeing his wife's anger. Caleb's father only let out a sigh. He knew that his wife was angry because Caleb could've died there. Even though he was the head of a wealthy family. He can't do much of anything since it was one of the laws of the government. Well, he can put pressure on the government in various ways, but that won't do much.
"By the way, son. What are the upcoming events in your school now after the beast tide? Surely, the beast tide must have messed up a lot of the school's schedules."
Caleb looked at his father. Then at his mother and said with a ponderous expression. "Let me think about it... It was supposed to be going to the Forest of Orcs to train. Then there's a schedule where the government will give us rewards. Lastly, the elite trial. There are just too many things to do."
Seeing his younger brother sighing. Klein made his to his side and coughed: "Adam, you have a problem with money or anything? Although I don't have much within me. I think I can give you fifty thousand pesos." Klein said with pain in his voice.
"I can also let you borrow some of my allowance."
A black line appeared on Caleb's forehead hearing this. Did he say that he has a problem with money!? Although the more cash he has the better.
"Nah, you guys can keep your money for yourselves."
"Well, that's good then."
Caleb's mother smiled.
"Son, you have class today, right? Make sure to fill yourself so you will have the energy for the entire day. I love you."
"I love you too, Mom," Caleb answered with a deadpan expression.
Honestly, he wasn't used to being spoiled like this. It leaves a bad taste in his mouth! After all, he was a damned old guy! Alas, he can only go with the flow. If he doesn't even have such flexibility. How can he integrate himself into different lives to come to other worlds? Just as Bruce Lee once said. Be water, my friend!
It was Friday. So he still needs to attend class. Although he was already powerful. He could still improve himself through the systematic training of the teachers and lay a thoroughly solid foundation for himself.
In the World of Destiny. Rina and Miles taught him some of the basics. But that wasn't enough. All this while, he was winning his fights thanks to his abilities, and experience and overpowering them through the synergy of the power systems.
However, he knew that he still needed to better himself further. He has infinite lives! Why become a jack of all trades when he could become a master of all?
Just like that, Caleb or Adam, proceeded to the CR to bath and clean his body. Following that, he trained his martial arts and movement techniques. Alfred was quiete a master of movement. He taugh him various tips and tricks. He calls it the 'Art of Movement'.
Speaking of movement, after training and cleaning his body again. He gave himself an alone time in the room to jerk off... Kidding aside, Caleb on his room, have his eyes closed. His perception scanning the entire vicinity to make sure that there's no people nearby.
A few seconds later, he opened his eyes and took a deep breath. "It seems there's no one. Its time to fuse my movement techniques! And maybe other skills..."
What do you think?
