Eryndor glanced at his teammates after posing the answer.
Paulina had already gotten her reward, so it was unlikely she would get rewarded again.
As the one who contributed the most, he hoped he would get the most rewards. It wasn’t that he wished for his teammates to get less but that rewards be distributed according to contributions.
If they had contributed more, he would have accepted it without any thoughts about wanting as much as them or more.
"Just the resources to achieve the Iron Body realm would be enough, to be honest, anything more would be a welco surprise though."
Drakarion responded. He had laid down on the ground with hands beneath his head.
Vague sounds of professor lissa organizing her group could be heard from a distance.
Eryndor could make out a statent or two, and it seed she was communicating with them about taking another mission since this one was practically not a mission at all.
Majority of the students disagreed with her idea, wanting to have a break after going through sothing so terrific.
"I’d like resources to upgrade my white snake, and my own stage. It’s been too long since I’m stuck on stage one of Beast Seeker realm"
Valentina spoke, while caressing the head of black snake.
When a Beast Tar broke through from one stage to another, their beasts didn’t break through along with them.
The beasts they had contracted need to be fed with resources which would facilitate their breakthrough.
It was easier at lower ranks, but the resources got more and more individualized according to the beast at higher realms.
Paulina looked at Eryndor and asked him in return.
"What are you hoping for?"
Eryndor tilted his head. There was nothing in particular which attracted him except information.
He wanted to know about…himself. He still hadn’t forgotten the outbreak of his powers when he doubted his identity as a Human.
But he figured that he would anyway be given information once he got to higher ranks in the Human Federation.
And how would he get to higher ranks?
Power.
"Nothing unique. Resources to cultivate faster."
He answered with a wry smile. He had his other abilities, but what the Human Federation knew about was only Passive Regeneration and his cultivation realm.
For them to take him seriously, what he would need was a higher cultivation realm. The other abilities would be his trump card.
Cultivation realm was the most important still, as it would be his main source of power. Because at least till now, all his abilities were auxiliary.
He didn’t know if the other doors in his Mind Palace had more abilities within their rooms or sothing else, but it would be wiser to focus on cultivation as he had also co to realize sothing.
His abilities weren’t really omnipotent. Not even his Cognitive Scrying.
Eryndor rembered how the Anomaly of Misfortune and Fortune was able to make Rodrick realize the situation had turned for worse before Eryndor had even t him.
Rodrick also knew nothing about Eryndor’s Cognitive Scrying perford on Jeremy. He literally had no idea about Eryndor’s actions but was still able to know that the situation had worsened.
If Rodrick was a bit more cautious, no one would have been able to catch him today, as he might’ve run away.
As to where he could go after defecting from the Academy? So of the Eight Outer Domains always kept their doors open for earthlings who had awakened innate abilities.
Eryndor continued talking with his group while pondering about random things when he heard the sound of footsteps.
Their discussion halted as professor lissa approached their group.
"I sent so seniors to scout the surroundings, there’s nothing dangerous around the woods I believe. Nor are there any traces of human activity.
"But still, to be on the safe side, we’ll leave this place and spend the night at our respective inns.
"My brother has notified about Rodrick possibly being a pawn of Heretics, so I don’t want to take any risk by spending the night out in the open.
"I’ll also be transferring you guys to our inn. You have no say in this, I am doing this for your own safety.
"Any questions?"
Eryndor was the one who spoke up.
"What about our mission? Will it be terminated or do we need to complete it?"
"Your mission isn’t really related to this, so you would have been told to continue had you not had a part in this situation.
"But considering your role in this entire situation, the Academy is willing to give you the mission rewards even if you terminate it.
"The extra rewards from Rodrick’s case will be calculated separately, or be given alongside it if you wish for it, just like Paulina’s situation.
"She got the spell model from the Academy after exchanging both of her rewards."
None of them spoke anything else. They also didn’t have any objection to getting their inn switched over.
Seeing this, she turned around.
"Follow . You guys might have dealt with the Anomaly, but both of us know how it was sealed.
"As the weakest ones, you’ll walk in the middle of the group, surrounded by seniors."
As they followed their professor out of the jungle, Eryndor fell into thought.
Heretics huh? What could they have gained out of this? Massacre of students? Death of professor lissa? Or the Mystical Artifact?
There could be soone important among the students, or it may be that professor lissa’s loss would be a heavy blow to the Human Federation.
Or there might be more to the Mystical Artifact than he knew.
Eryndor didn’t know what they were after.
He knew the basic information of the Heretics.
They were a group of people with mixed objectives.
So of them wanted to eradicate all the humans of Earth.
So of them wanted everyone to surrender to the Eight Outer Domains.
So of them wished to surrender to the Anomalies, as there were plenty among them who were conscious, human-like intellect, and strong.
There were also so who wished the top elites of the humans would relocate to a different planet.
All in all, the common thing among them was that their ideals were against the Human Federation who declared their intention to protect humanity on Earth and stand strong without surrendering to anyone.
There was a high chance that the Eight Outer Domains would simply take them as slaves and treat them no better than their pets if they surrendered.
Eryndor shook his head, removing those thoughts from his head, and refocusing elsewhere.
I am looking forward to my rewards.
