”Grandmaster Zaar, thank you; without your help, I wouldn’t be standing here as Grandmaster,” She said while bowing deeply.
A gesture surprised everyone who was watching; a small bow to show gratitude is nothing surprising, but a deep bow held a completely different meaning. Grandmasters rarely give such deep bows, even to the Grand Lords.
”I did what I could. You do not have to show such respect to me,” I said and looked at her carefully; she had gone through the great changes in a matter of hours.
Aside from her Grandmaster level aura, the big breakthrough had brought two big changes into her, both of them related to her appearance.
She now looks much younger than before; from looking at a lady in her early fifties, she now looks like a woman in her mid-thirties. Her skin has become vibrant, and her features have become more aligned, making her even more visually appealing.
There is a thumbnail size crystalline bead in the center of her temple, just like Ashlyn has on her and the twins. I don’t know what Ashlyn’s bead is, but it is not a secondary power core for sure, and for what twins have, it is not a true secondary power core.
The crystal bead on the center of Camphors temple is the true secondary power core. It is had dark blue edges but inside is the yin-yang of gold and malachite color; the gold and malachite are in the exact shade of cosmic energy and source of her Inheritance energy that had appeared.
”You very much deserve it, Grandmaster Zaar. If not for your help, I would be lying bloodied and broken right now,” she said while shaking her head.
The Grandmasters got surprised hearing that, but smarts one’s eyes lit up; I couldn’t help but sigh inwardly seeing those sneaky flashes.
”You should get control over your strength as soon as possible,” I advised. We are at war, and she could be called in the front at any time. So, she needs to get her power under control to utilize it at 100% efficiency.
She nodded, and a few seconds later, one by one, people walked out of the hall. Those in the projection form just simply disappeared.
I am glad that I did not use the projection as I wanted to in the morning. If I had, I don’t know whether I would be able to help her on time or not.
”Micheal, you have to tell me how you had helped little Winnie; I will pay a fortune for that.” The old man said.
I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at that; I thought the old man would thank me for saving his niece; instead, he got his eyes on me, and his niece secretes.
”If you really want to know Grandmaster, then you should really ask your niece,” I said with a smile, and he put a sour expression on his face.
Soon we have reached the teleportation formation, and we parted ways. There were many Grandmasters who wanted to talk to me, but I made the excuse of some emergency patient and disappeared into the teleportation formation.
I did not go back to my room; instead, I played with my sister for a while before I cooked a sumptuous dinner with new cooking techniques I am learning. The whole family ate till we were completely filled.
I walked back into my room after my sister fell asleep an hour and a half later, and I lay on my bed before going into my core; it was time I opened my present.
I sat on my study station, and in front of me was a big ping seed; it is the size of my arm and contained one of the greatest presents Ive ever got. I had been holding back my desire for an hour but no more.
Click!
I touched the seed, and it clicked open, and just as I did, two things appeared in front of me. One is a pink disk containing all recordings of Camphors breakthrough, and the second is a thick golden blob of celestial energy.
Like I did with the twins, I had collected the cosmic energy, and like I did with twins, I had not robbed her of any benefit by collecting this energy. This is the stray cosmic energy that was going to disappear from her body; it was excess one which I am more than happy to collect.
I had created this collection formation to collect the elemental energy. It had collected that, but when the cosmic energy appeared, it threw all that away at my command and began collecting this precious cosmic energy.
I very much want to use this cosmic energy right now, and it will provide me immense benefits. I am sure it will directly give me the power of peak Grandmaster and increase my potential at the same time, but I resisted those thoughts.
I have a better way to utilize this energy; through that way, I will receive even more benefits I will right now.
So, after much thought and great reluctance, I have placed a couple of seals on the golden blob of energy and placed it in the safe before turning toward the memory disc, which contains the complete recording of the breakthrough.
From a certain perspective, this disc is a hundred times more precious than cosmic energy itself, especially to someone like me, who had already benefitted greatly from studying the bloodlines core and Elemental cores, and now I have a complete recording of very rare Hybrid core.
I am very excited about the schematic her inheritance had used to create the hybrid core, and if I was able to glance into it, it would help me tremendously.
Just thinking about it has made me salivate in my mouth.
