Faced with the mysterious person's praise, Charles felt no ripple of emotion inside, instead, he experienced a slight unease. In his view, he had discovered it too late. He had already sensed sothing odd in the private room on the second floor of the cafeteria.
Yet, there had been no change in sound, sll, or the air in the room.
How did this masked mysterious person manage to do that?
[The Cleansers]?
To want to kill six monsters comparable to Level Nine Beast Masters in one go, his power must be beyond imagination!
"What's wrong? Are you wondering how I did it?"
The mysterious person's face was obscured by a mask, but his voice revealed that he was in a good mood, speaking with a cheerful tone.
Charles nodded slowly.
"Good, it's a great habit to think of solutions when faced with problems right away. But unfortunately, your strength is too low, you're just a Level Four Beast Master. You have talent, but you're not at the top level yet." the mysterious person sighed.
He had encountered many geniuses, including several like Charles who possessed strong intuition.
Although Charles's talent was impressive, it wasn't the best.
There are many decisive factors in becoming a truly powerful Beast Master, talent is just one of them.
"At eighteen, almost nineteen, being a Level Four Beast Master is top-notch in the Abyssal Depths,
but in the entire Ethereal Grove, there are still those who are stronger." the mysterious person thought to himself.
In many prominent families of the Haunted Marsh, there are nurous geniuses who work hard every day, and it's not uncommon for soone to beco a Level Five Beast Master by eighteen.
Thinking of this, the masked mysterious person suppressed his excitent and eagerness. He decided to observe Charles a bit longer before making any decisions.
After all, once he thoroughly cleansed those [Bodies], there would still be plenty of ti to rest.
"Sigh, what a pity. I had planned to use that ti to really dive into the ga, but all the mbers of the Ten-Person eting are focused on finding successors. I need to hurry up too." the mysterious person thought. He turned his gaze back to Charles, eager to know his response.
Dean Jamie of Genosha Cyber Academy looked at Charles helplessly, his mouth slightly open as he slowly said:
"Charles, you should understand the dangers involved in this matter, after all, we are talking about six monsters that are comparable to Level Nine Beast Masters."
After Jamie finished speaking, he turned his attention to the masked mysterious person, planning to advocate for Charles once more, wondering what would happen if Charles was unwilling...
While Jamie was lost in thought, Charles spoke up without hesitation, saying, "Dean, I have no problem with this. I just need to confirm how strong he truly is."
Jamie was montarily taken aback by Charles's words, then replied sowhat helplessly, "Very strong, but I don't know exactly how strong."
Both of them turned their attention to the mysterious person, who lazily yawned and replied slowly:
"Don't worry, they're just six [Bodies]. They're not that troubleso, I just don't want to waste ti clearing them one by one. By the way, can I see the item you used to deal with the [Bodies] in Flower Falls Gorge?" The mysterious person's gaze suddenly beca sharp as he spoke.
Charles was prepared for this situation.
His heartbeat remained steady, showing no signs of change, and his face and body language were completely normal.
"I'm afraid not. That item was a one-ti use, it shattered completely not long after I used it." Charles replied calmly.
Then, with a hint of curiosity on his face, he asked:
"What's wrong? Was that item really important? If I'd known, I would have kept it, but then I wouldn't have been able to save the tourists in Flower Falls Gorge."
The masked mysterious person fell silent for a mont, carefully scrutinizing Charles.
After a long pause, he slowly spoke:
"It's not that important. It's just that the power capable of countering [Bodies] hasn't appeared in a long ti, it's been nearly eighteen years since I've seen such power."
Charles pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, then said with so confusion:
"Eighteen years or so? What kind of power are you talking about?"
The mysterious person shook his head, not answering Charles's question. Instead, he waved his hand dismissively and said slowly:
"This morning, I took a stroll around the city and noticed quite a few people from the [Constellation].
Once they gather all the intel from within the city, it will probably take them two or three days.
Adding in so other matters, they'll likely make their move in about four or five days."
"Before that, you should do what you need to do. By the way, I heard you ntion that you have a competition coming up in a couple of days. I'll be there to watch."
Charles was montarily taken aback, he hadn't expected the other party to say such a thing.
Watching his competition?
Was this part of the plan regarding the six [Bodies]?
After speaking, the masked mysterious person suddenly vanished before Charles and Jamie, as if he had never existed at all.
Charles's eyes widened in shock, his previously calm expression now filled with intense surprise.
He hadn't even perceived how the other had disappeared from such a close distance.
"Strange, right? Last night, he appeared right behind and watched for a while. I had no idea he was there." Jamie sighed.
At that mont, he couldn't help but feel a bit disheartened, here he was, an Level Eight Beast Master, completely unaware of any anomalies.
Yet Charles, rely a Level Four Beast Master, was able to sense sothing was off through his intuition.
The gap between people was indeed vast.
"Dean, just how strong is this person? Is he one of the top-tier Level Nine Beast Masters?" Charles pondered for a mont before asking slowly.
Jamie shook his head and replied, "I've seen plenty of Level Nine Beast Masters, but none as powerful as him. Even Lucas wouldn't last long in front of him."
A presence that is far stronger than a Level Nine Beast Master?
What lies beyond the realm of a Level Nine Beast Master?
Charles took a deep breath. He began to replay all the events that had just occurred in his mind, including his expressions, actions, and tone, everything should have been fine.
The reason he agreed to help the mysterious person attract the six [Bodies] was that there was no better option available.
He couldn't run away, since those [Bodies] were targeting him, escape was not an option. Six beings comparable to Level Nine Beast Masters—there was no way to evade them!
Moreover, many people within Genosha Calivia had started to matter to Charles. Although Teacher Ezra was not in Calivia, there were still Teacher Colton, Dean Jamie, Teacher Hale, as well as Celestine, Camilla, Zachary, Jace, and others.
He didn't know when it had started, but the bonds he had ford were growing stronger. It was no longer like when he first arrived in Calivia, completely isolated with no relationships.
"If the [Cleansers] are involved, there shouldn't be any problems. Don't worry, Charles. After this is resolved, things will settle down." Jamie said slowly, trying to reassure him.
Charles nodded silently. Just from the way the masked mysterious person disappeared at the end, it was clear that his strength was indeed formidable.
What Charles was contemplating was Jamie's latter statent about things settling down in the future.
"I'm afraid situations like this will beco more frequent. This world is really on the brink of chaos." Charles said, taking a deep breath, feeling a sense of urgency in his heart.
When he had first beco a Beast Master, he was still in Lsengard, where the only other Beast Master he encountered with a higher level was Joshua.
However, since arriving in Calivia, he had lost count of how many high-level Beast Masters he had t.
Genosha Calivia would definitely not be his endpoint. Once he stepped out of Genosha and the Abyssal Depths, he would encounter even more Beast Masters, and they would only be stronger!
"The only thing I can do now is to focus on improving my strength. The inter-academy competition isn't important, I will definitely secure a spot." Charles thought to himself.
After chatting with him for a few more minutes, Jamie left directly.
Charles didn't linger in the office for long either. He had asked Jamie for leave, skipping the upcoming classes for a few days, planning to catch up later when he had ti.
Then, Charles dove straight into the training room.
anwhile, in the most luxurious hotel in Genosha, Wayne was continuously flipping through the docunts in his hands. These were materials he had purchased at a high price from an intelligence organization, all containing information about Charles.
"Is this for real? A genius like this could erge in such a small place as Genosha?" Wayne slowly set down the docunts, taking a deep breath.
From the information received, it was clear that Charles was indeed a genuine genius, far superior to the typical talents from the Haunted Marsh!
Charles's level of genius could likely be considered top-tier even within the Haunted Marsh.
"Fortunately, he's only a Level Four Beast Master right now, and during the competition, he'll be using the sa weapons and equipnt. This will greatly reduce his strength." Wayne said, clenching his fists tightly.
At the banquet that day, Charles had humiliated him using his ancestor, and this grudge had to be repaid!
Otherwise, when he returned to the Haunted Marsh, the Tomos the Wayne Family would mock him, saying he brought sha to the family.
"If I drink the new type of miracle drug that Genosha can't detect in advance, my strength can increase by at least fifty percent! Even a typical Level Six Beast Master wouldn't be able to defeat in a short ti, and Charles would definitely stand no chance!"
Wayne shook his neck vigorously, unable to contain his excitent.
