Chapter 80 His mind never stops working
"You neutralized the poison inside you?" She asked, in shock, and Klaus nodded.
"That's right."
Sua's eyes twinkled slightly before nodding and continuing to look at the poisons. 'They're the same poisons that were in the other guy's body. How could he neutralize them so easily?'
If she looked carefully, they somehow made her feel like they were inactive, but that didn't tell her much. Most poisons made with cursed energy are inactive when outside an organism, so she thought that was normal.
"These poisons are very potent; how did you go about neutralizing them? I don't think positive energy can neutralize poisons made with cursed energy. Although, under certain circumstances... Maybe it could." She looked at Klaus, waiting for him to respond, but he remained silent.
Revealing more from there would be pointless, so Sua had to give up.
"If so, then invite me over one day to see how you investigate this. Honestly, at this point, I don't understand how you got pulled out of the Cursed Mist. All your knowledge overwhelms me in some way or another; it's frustrating and confusing." She sighed.
"Hahaha, don't think too hard. It's not like I'm going to do a great job. I asked you this because it will help me satiate all my curiosity, but also because all that stuff as a whole is incredibly expensive and scarce. If I go to a Big Capital, I might be able to sell it at a price so high it would make you feel fear." Klaus smiled softly with some guile.
Naturally, he wasn't saying everything. But what he said was enough to make Sua's head hurt a little, but it was still not overly troublesome.
'The payment I gave them is high, but this guy ended up getting something pretty good in the end. Even I'm jealous of what he has now, but even both of those things are still not as important as that key. Sam'an City can't fall into someone else's hands.'
She shook her head and nodded.
"Regarding yesterday... Can you tell me a bit about how you got involved with that guy? And how did you find out he was behind it all?" she asked.
"About how I knew, it's simple. He said so. Apparently, he was aware of Carion and shouted that he wanted to kill him; after a little investigation, I realized that this guy was behind everything. To get involved with him, well, I simply showed him that I knew the location of the Nithim Twice members, and he believed me. It was nothing surprising."
"And of the rest, I didn't do much. Since they understood my value and were greedy, they easily fell for it. Still, I had to leave after that, so now that Ronan got away from them, I guess he'll know I was just a con man. If he thinks correctly, he'll possibly be looking for me to kill me, so I'd appreciate it if you caught him as soon as possible. It's troubling to think that such a strong guy is after me."
Sua nodded. "That sounds convincing, even if you're obviously not telling me everything you know. Regarding Ronan, we'll look for him under rocks and pay your expenses during this time, so we'll easily know your location. Use this card from now on; it belongs to the organization, and we can locate it as long as you hold it in your hand." She bestowed him a black card with gold decorations, which was quite nice and appeared to be of a very high standard, and then spoke again.
"We will also send powerful people to the vicinity of here..." As she spoke, she was interrupted.
"No, don't do that. I can take care of myself as long as I'm there, and I'm sure he, by now, doesn't know where I live. I don't like having people hanging around where I sleep."
She stared at him and nodded after thinking about it for several seconds. "All right, then. Anyway, this area is safe. There are powerful and wealthy people living here, so there are usually no problems. There's even a noble living atop this building; Ronan Grimwell shouldn't sneak in here freely."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Klaus was satisfied with that arrangement, and after that, they both talked a bit more, but nothing much.
Sua was curious about some bears, and Klaus had several questions, so they ended up buying information from each other.
But, in this little buying and selling of information, if there had to be a loser (something they both tend to think often), it would be Klaus.
Because the information he had to ask for was too basic and made Sua realize that Klaus did not seem to have a high level of common sense.
'What a strange case. Such an incredibly intelligent and capable person, but he doesn't have much common sense...'
Sua went away deep in thought about it, leaving Klaus to return to his strenuous training.
Thus, the hours passed, and Klaus' muscles were continually tearing. He went on a few missions at the end of his daily training.
That night, he received another two or three missions, on which different corps of scientists had something to do. Among these were several interesting ones who wanted to strike up good relations with Klaus.
"Mr. Will, you are too kind to us scientists. We really don't know how to thank you, but since we realized that you were the same one who accepted every request, we decided to give you the highest we could on every mission. Thank you very much; we really appreciate it."
"Right, Mr. Will. I heard from one of my friends that you do this because you like research. Is that true?"
Klaus nodded to the two standing before him with lab coats and strange hairstyles.
"Haha, don't worry about thanking me; I'm fine with my pay. And yes, I do this for fun and to help you guys out since I'm drawn to research."
"Awesome." The second guy's eyes sparkled with amazement. "That's a little curious, but if you like it, why don't you come by these days to witness what we do? Maybe you can learn a few things." He proposed, causing his companion to nod several times.
"Right, Mr. Will. You can come. In these days—in four days, to be exact—we will be investigating some new things we were asked to do from the Capital, and we have several colleagues coming to help us. Why don't you come that day? We will show you the facilities and everything in more detail. We will even let you watch what we do for a while. Maybe that could teach you a few things if you're interested."
Klaus was surprised by this, but he didn't want to say no. "What time is it?" he asked.
"In the evening, Mr. Will."
Immediately, Klaus smiled. "That's Good. Then expect me in four days in the evening. I'll be here without fail."
Both researchers smiled broadly and nodded happily. They were in such a good mood that they couldn't bear to feel like hugging Klaus, although they restrained themselves.
After that talk, they talked some more, and Klaus went on to complete other missions.
He would meet Mr. Carter the day after tomorrow, so he still had time. While doing his missions, he did not forget to research his cursed energy, trying to understand it; that gave him good results, as, although little, it increased his knowledge of the energy.
The way it moved, how to summon it, and how to avoid certain problems.
'It is a very versatile energy. Also, I feel as if it is gently strengthening my body. How curious.' He thought. Enjoy exclusive content from empire
Then, at dawn, he slept for a while and continued with his intensive training routine, focusing on the method Mr. Carter had told him to use.
That method of training was used to understand 'the gateway' to the real Sorcerer System, to ground that foundation perfectly.
The thing is that right now, he understands the 3 Basics quite well. He even thinks he can teach them.
The Basic Concept of Realization is to use energy for whatever. Materialize it in any form and understand how it is made. He now understands that part of the concept and even understands a little deeper, as there is something he realized first.
Realization, in addition to a materialization of energy, is also a potentialized way of utilizing a sorcerer's abilities.
This is most evident if someone has an attack or defense skill, as Realization allows for the materialization of energy. If that energy is mixed with an ability, then it is possible to materialize what that ability does in the form of energy.
For example: Let's say Klaus has an attack skill that does 10 points of damage independently. At the same time, his pure energy attack does 4 points of damage.
The moment he uses his understanding of Realization to materialize the skill in the form of energy, he would be using his energy to hit. Still, he would no longer make 4 points of damage but would make 6 or 7 points, even more, consuming less energy than using the skill directly.
The only problem with that is a problem of the Realization itself. Being a basic concept, it can only be used on energy and not on the skill itself. Still, it is interesting enough to understand its value.
While Klaus was immersed in his thoughts about it, he suddenly felt he understood more than he should have. Yet, just at those moments, his body made a strange click when one of his muscles tore, and suddenly, all the surrounding energy entered his body all at once, without him being able to control it.
At the same time, his body was surrounded by energy, but it was not like before, where he was directly in a balloon of energy. Now, the energy was barely perceptible at the level of his skin.
'This is...' His beautiful purple eyes shone with amazement.
