The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order Chapter 42

Chapter 42: New and familiar faces

Cain trained in the Fiend Devourer Cultivation Technique and was ready to call it a day and go to sleep before the next cla.s.s when his body trembled.

The youth opened his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face. He had finished the first level and could finally advance with the second, not longer just solidifying his foundation but also improving his cultivation.

Although tired, excitement filled Cain’s body and commanded the system to scan him without hesitation.

‘System, scan me!’

Although there was not a shocking improvement in his stats, Cain expected such a thing. At the lower level, one could not see much difference between techniques, but as his cultivation advanced, those improvements acc.u.mulated and showed an incredible effect.

Cain went to bed the next minute with a happy smile. As usual, he woke up with the first ray of sunlight and headed to the auditorium where his cla.s.s would take place.

He was just about to enter the building when he noticed Beelze in the distance. She was speaking with a handsome blonde man around twenty years old.

The man was striking not only in looks but also had a powerful aura and vibrant vitality. His attire also drew attention, resembling that of a high-cla.s.s butler.

Suddenly, the man’s eyes grew cold, turning toward Cain.

When he saw those eyes, Cain’s entire body trembled. That gaze had the power to freeze his mind, but then a flash of red light appeared in his eyes.

Cain did not know what happened, but all the fear vanished, and a sense of absolute certainty appeared in his eyes as he stared back at the man by Beelze’s side.

Now, it was time for the blond man to be surprised. There was shock on his face as he saw Cain’s eyes full of determination and absent of any fear.

However, before the man could do anything, he turned back toward Beelze and saw the girl’s cold stare. He gave Cain one final glance before nodding toward Beelze and walking away.

Cain’s eyes did not leave the man until this one vanished from his view. He then turned to his side and saw that Beelze was already there.

“Who is that man?”

“Oh, don’t tell me that you are jealous?” A small smile appeared in Beelze, but she noticed Cain’s stoic expression.

“He is very dangerous.”

When Beelze heard those words and felt the concern in them, her smile became more natural.

“You are right. That man is dangerous, but there is no reason to worry. He works for my family.”

Cain was slightly surprised when he heard that. The fact that Beelze’s family could infiltrate a person in the Imperial Military Academy meant their background was truly impressive.

Since Beelze told him the man was no danger and she seemed fine, Cain did not dig anymore. The power of her family was not something that he cared about.

“What are you lovebirds doing?”

Cain and Beelze turned around and saw Levi walking out of the auditorium. The duo only sneered when they heard his words, but the silver metallic structure covering his spine drew their attention.

“You got full body armor. It is a High Bronze Wave Artifact?” Since Levi did not have it activated, Cain could not see the appearance of the armor, but it seemed composed of silver blades.

“Haha, even better. It is a Peak Bronze Wave Artifact.”

Levi was very pleased with his armor, but his good mood did not last long.

“You know what they say about people that like to show off their belongings. Are you overcompensating for something else?”

Beelze did not specify, but Levi and Cain understood what she meant. The first one’s face almost grew red, while the second did his best to contain his laughter.

“You...” Levi stared dagger at Beelze, but this one only kept smiling. Clearly, the girl was not the forgiving type and was taking revenge on the youth’s previous remark.

“Hmph.” In the end, Levi only sneered and did not say anything else. Although he seemed angry, he was not a child that would lose control over his emotions for something so trivial.

“Anyway, you two better get in. The teacher arrived early, and he is someone you and I know.”

Cain was curious, and when he walked into the auditorium, he saw a bulky man with scars all over his face.

“Oh, Vice-Captain Josef.”

“I take it that you two had encounters with that man before.”

Levi and Cain nodded to Beelze’s words, and the second began to relate the events at the end of the Military Academy Secret Trial as they walked toward their seats.

Overall, Cain had a good image of this strict, cold, yet fair man.

“I see.” Beelze nodded toward Cain’s words and said nothing else. She reserved her opinion of Josef for herself.

Vice-Captian glanced at Cain and Levi but said nothing else and silently waited until the cla.s.s finally started.

“My name is Josef, and I will be your teacher for the Military Tactics Cla.s.s.”
