The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 980 Descendants

Cainʼs eyes soon focused on a beautiful woman with red hair and green eyes. Her entire body carried potent vitality and immense force. She was with a group of hundreds of old masters, all working on complex runes.

A small smile appeared on Cainʼs face as he saw Shuraʼs focus and dedication. The young woman had decided to turn her attention from the battlefield to rune crafting after the Codex of Infinite Pathways assessment, which marked her as talented in that field.

Although Shura had never had much interest in professions, a sense of determination and purpose had arisen as she pursued this path. She knew she could never follow Cain on the battlefield but did not want to be just a mere decoration next to the mighty Scarlet King. So she immersed herself in runes, and her hard work paid off.

After a few months of hard work, her skills rose significantly, and she could discuss with the most advanced runemasters of Aether.

Cainʼs eyes sharpened as he gazed inside Shuraʼs body and saw how her Essence Star had different runic marks and was constantly emitting runic energy. Clearly, the young woman had channeled her cultivation base to Rune Crafting, showing the absolute resolution in her soul to follow that path.

Cainʼs smile widened as he nodded. After their saga together, the young woman had already obtained a piece of his heart when she risked her life for him more than once. She did not need to be a great warrior for him to love her. However, everybody needed a purpose, a path they could follow, and he was delighted she found hers.

After that, Cain turned his eyes toward another woman. Her gorgeous face, white skin, and pointy ears gave her an elfish charm. That young woman was none other than Astrid, the Atrox with whom he spent months during his time in the Kronos Continent.

Unlike Shura, whose relationship burst due to intense moments, his connection with the young Atrox started slow. Back then, Cainʼs Power of Order was at its peak, and calling him an emotionless psychopath would not have been wrong, yet slowly, she was able to reach him.

Unlike all the other masters, Astrid was alone. The reason was that she was the only Tribulation Enhancement master present. That profession was still very new and had yet to spread across Aether, and Cain had not had time to look for more with the war against Dark Sky going on.

Astrid did not seem to care about solitude. Her eyes focused solely on the magic formulations before her and the 21 Revolution Flames growing above her hand.

Cain could not help but be surprised by the young womanʼs abilities. Her talent in Tribulation Enhancement had already been superb the first time she stepped foot in the [Samsara Arsenal Module]ʼs First Layer. Yet, with the help of the Codex of Infinite Pathways, she had reached a whole new level.

ʼThe Peak of the Wave King Rank, and she can already create Revolution Flame at the peak of the Saint Tier. Once she opens her Inner World using the power of Tribulation Enhancement, her talent could surpass mine.ʼ A wide smile appeared on Cainʼs face, and he was happy to see Astrid had also found her path.

The next second, Cain extended his hand, and the power of space emerged, causing Shura and Astrid to appear in front of him. The young women were shocked as they had just been in the midst of their training when they were teleported, but soon, their eyes focused on the imposing young man in front of them.

Shura was confused, but that did not stop a lovely smile from appearing on her face as she jumped forward and hugged her lover. Cain only smiled as he caressed her head with tenderness.

Astrid saw that scene and was about to move forward, but she did not dare. A complicated expression appeared on her face as she prepared to bow in the presence of the Scarlet King. Surprise appeared on her gorgeous face as she felt immense power preventing her from kneeling.

”You donʼt need to do that in front of me,” Cain smiled at the young woman, his eyes showing deep affection.

Shura noticed that but just continued smiling. She did not care who was in Cainʼs heart as long as there was space for her.

Cain smiled as he saw Shuraʼs reaction and extended his hand, signaling the Atrox woman to come to him.

Astridʼs face was nervous, but she felt she would regret it forever if she did not seize this opportunity. The young Atrox immediately went forward, hugging Cain as well.

Cain smiled as a sense of peace flooded his mind when he held the two women. These moments allowed his mind to relax, and even if it was just for a few seconds, it gave him the strength to carry on with his plans.

Finally, after a few minutes, Shura and Astrid emerged from Cainʼs embrace and gazed at him with curiosity. They understood the nature of the man they loved, and he was someone whose every second was calculated.

Cain almost laughed as he saw how well the two women understood him, so he shrugged his shoulders. ”Soon, I will enter a deep seclusion that might last decades or maybe more.”

As the two women heard Cainʼs words, a sense of shock struck their souls, and a flash of sadness appeared in their eyes. They had already accepted that they would see him little, but his absence for decades was not something easy to bear.

Cain felt sad but did not plan to leave them alone. ”Before that, I will marry you two and leave you my descendants.”

Shura and Astrid were stunned as they heard those words. Slowly, their eyes began to glow with utter excitement as they touched their abdomens. Nothing would make them happier than bearing the child of the man they love.
