Cain’s last statent caused the temperature to drop imdiately.
Patrick looked at Cain and asked in a rather low tone. "What makes you so sure about that?"
Right now, they were still in turmoil because they didn’t know whether Ferdinand was still alive or not. Normally, people wouldn’t be able to escape from the fallen building and escaped unscathed. But from the way Cain talked, it seed that he was certain that his father would still be alive.
Why?
Cain looked at Kevin. "Don’t you already know the reason? You see his power too, right?"
Kevin frowned. His mind recalled back the scene before the roof started to fall. Ferdinand muttered two words: ’copy, regeneration’ and his hand healed at visible rate. At first, he thought that Ferdinand only had regeneration ability, which was the sa as Aria, but Cain’s words caused him to think otherwise.
"Copying other people’s ability," Kevin slowly uttered out. "Am I right?"
Cain nodded his head.
"Wait, wait, wait! What do you an by copying other people’s ability?" Neo interrupted as he asked with confusion filled his face.
"It’s exactly as it is," Kanae replied. "Copying other people’s ability ans that he can copy many people’s ability. For example, if you have fast typing skills, he could use his ability to copy your typing skill and use it for himself."
Patrick narrowed his eyes. "Do you an, he’s copying other people’s talent?"
"Yes."
The room stayed silent as each of them was in their own mind. They were thinking about how terrifying Ferdinand’s ability was. It just ant that he could have the power that could possibly eliminate them.
"It’s not that scary as you think," Cain added. "He has to have the blood of the person to copy that particular person’s ability. You can’t possibly copy soone that you can do because of your gene."
"Can he copy yours?"
Cain closed his eyes. ���Yes."
Kevin’s eyes narrowed. He turned his head to Dean. "Call your friend; ask him to evacuate everyone around Lima School. Ferdinand is still alive."
Dean was about to make a call to his friend when his phone rang. He quickly picked it up and the desperate voice of his friend ca through the phone.
"Dean, he...he���.he’s a monster."
"What? Tell what happened?"
"Turn on the television!" the leader shouted to his phone.
Kanae picked the remote and turned the television. At that mont, they could see Lima School and the situation around them. Nurous buildings, which originally were not part of the school, were destroyed along with the people who ran around while screaming.
Although the video was taken from a far distance away, it was easy to guess that the people were panicking.
"....this is the situation in Lima School at this ti. Soone ca out of the rubbles not long ago. The police tried to apprehend him, but no one was successful. So of the building moved by itself as if there’s an earthquake happening, killing nurous people who tried to search..."
"We have to go there," Kanae was about to go to the door when Kevin grabbed her hand. She flinched at the pain on her back.
"Even if you go there, can you fight?"
Kanae bit her lower lips. She knew that it would be impossible for her to fight against Ferdinand when he was using other people’s ability like that. It would be too much for her to go against him. Even though her ability allowed her to adapt at the shortest ti possible, there was no way she would stay alive if he crushed her underneath the buildings.
"We’ll fight against him when we et with him again," Kevin promised.
Looking back at Kevin’s determined eyes, Kanae nodded her head. There was no other way for them now. All they could do was wait for the next chance to arrive and at that ti, they would be more prepared.
"Cain, do you know how many people’s ability that he can do?"
Cain thought to himself. "He only takes so of us because his body can’t handle it if it’s too much. If I’m not wrong, he should have the telekinesis, gravity, barrier, and regeneration."
The others: "..." that would be the deadliest combination.
The fight against those people nearly sent the one who fought to their death door except the barrier because Cain overtaxed his ability. In addition, the telekinesis one killed both parties in the battle because of their matched strength.
If one person was capable of deploying all of those abilities at once, it would be extrely terrifying.
"Why did he not use them when fighting against us?" Kanae frowned.
"He used regeneration to grow back his arm," Kevin replied to Kanae. "And I’m pretty sure that he used the barrier to keep himself safe in the tower."
"Every use of the ability would shorten his lifespan," Cain replied. "He’s already pretty old and if he continues to use them, he’ll die soon. Usually, he uses the dicine as the replacent to fuel the ability, but only a certain type that Professor Taren had provided him."
Kanae recalled how Ferdinand’s arm turned into that of a monster when she stabbed him with the dicine. It seed that the pure dicine that she has made him unable to control his body. Unfortunately, that bottle was the last one that she has. It was given to her by Shiro.
Speaking of Shiro, she made a ntal note to herself that she would visit that man as soon as he woke up.
"Cain, what else do you know from your father?"
Cain didn’t answer anymore. He stared at the ceiling as he recalled everything that he knew regarding his father. There were not many things that they allowed him to know because his father himself never trusted anybody else.
The image that ca to his mind when he thought about his father was their first eting. His father rcilessly killed his mother because she remarried. As for him, he rely stood by the side and watched everything.
"What about the dicine? Do you know how the governnt acquires them?" Mike asked.
"I don’t know. It’s an old liquid that has existed in their lab for decades. Many people already use them for experints, but only Professor Taren decided to use humans as the experint rat."
"Do you know if there’s any other experint’s report?"
"The governnt should have them from the ti they start to do the research. I don’t know the detail," Cain replied in an apologetic tone. He didn’t know too much about the dicine because he was nothing more than an errand body. Even then, he barely did any work related to the research.
Kanae knew that it would be pointless to ask anything anymore, so she decided to end this here. "That should be all for now. Thank you for your ti, Cain."
"Yes."
"Also, the police may ask you to provide so statents. I hope that you won’t leak out everything," Patrick smiled, yet the aura he emanated was rather cold and unfeeling.
Cain nodded his head. He was not a fool to leak out the truth of this matter. One way or another, they would surely be able to make so satisfying stories for the masses. All he needed to do was give his own version of the story that matched what they wanted to hear.
