Chapter 108

108 Hellblazer Family (I)

Book 2. The rise of the Blood Lightning Genius

—

Levi slowly opened his eyes, and they had a deep sense of confusion. However, a wave of panic pushed that away as he found himself submerged in a green liquid with red streams.

Drowning had an extremely powerful psychological effect on all terrestrial life forms, so Levi’s reaction was not that odd. Levi calmed down very fast after realizing he could still breathe.

Breathing underwater seemed far-fetched, but it was nothing for the current scientific development of the Godslayer Humankind Empire.

A few moments after he woke up, the capsule that held Levi began to drain the liquid before opening itself, allowing him to get out.

The confusion in Levi’s eyes only grew stronger as he left the capsule. The last thing he remembered was fighting the Atrox before an explosion sent him flying away, and he lost consciousness.

As he attempted to figure out what had happened, Levi began to analyze his body, and surprise appeared in his eyes. Not only were all his wounds gone, but he felt better than ever before in his life.

Levi could almost not believe it when he began circulating his Astral Wave and realized he had already entered Level 4!

.....

The higher the level, the more time it would take to advance. Levi had been at Level 3 for less than two months, yet he had already reached Level 4 and was reaching the peak of that level!

An even greater sense of wonder assaulted Levi’s mind when he noticed the luster in his skin and bald head and immediately figured out he had gone through another session of marrow washing.

Levi was just getting used to the refinements on his body when a sense of utter shock assaulted him. It was hard to say with certainty, but he felt a change in his bloodline as if this one had grown stronger!

Many factors determined the strength of a bloodline, but the most important ones were origin and purity.

When one spoke about the origin, they referred to the root of your bloodline. If its source was a Wave Beast whose power equaled a Titan or God, it made sense that the benefits it granted would be superior to those of a beast that could only match a Wave Champion.

As for purity, it alluded to the density of the bloodline. The farther you were from the source and the weaker your parents were, the lower the purity of the bloodline inside your body would be, and vice versa.

Levi knew that while the bloodline inside his body had an incredibly powerful origin, the purity was low due to one of his parents. However, now he felt that the capsule had partially fixed that flaw.

“You finally woke up. You were in the Recovery Capsule for fifteen days. Not bad.”

Levi adopted a battle stance as he focused on the voice and saw a beautiful woman with golden hair and blue eyes walking toward him. He did not know who she was, and while he was glad for the effect of the capsule, there was no way he would lower his guard in a situation like this.

The woman showed nothing and kept walking until she stood before Levi. She waved her hand, taking a blue martial robe from her space ring.

“My name is Abin, the personal assistant of Lord Zarak. He commanded that I should bring you to him the moment you woke up, so let’s go. I will answer your question on the way.”

Levi had already heard of Zarak from Cain and knew that the man was a big shot in the army. Although he was still cautious, refusing did not seem like a choice, so he put the blue martial robe on and walked with Abin.

“What happened to my friends?”

That was the first question that came from Levi’s mouth, and Abin immediately answered it.

“Cain Laurifer is healing in a Recovery Capsule just like you were. As for Beelze Aegon, she perished in battle.”

Levi smiled as he heard that first part, but when it came to Beelze’s fate, his body trembled, and he stopped moving.

Abin turned toward Levi and waited for this one. She was also a soldier and knew the feeling of losing a comrade for the first time.

A sorrowful expression appeared on Levi’s face. He, Cain, and Beelze were ready to die when they faced that Atrox, but it was still very painful to know that one of the first friends he made in his life was gone forever.

“Ahhh, this world is ruthless.” Levi sighed as he uttered those words and continued walking.

It was when they were about to reach a teleportation matrix that Levi spoke again.

“What happened to my body?” Levi was smart enough to understand the changes had to do with the Recovery Capsule and the green liquid with green streams. However, that was far from enough to satiate his curiosity.

Just like before, Abin answered Levi’s question with speed and efficiency.

“Recovery Capsules can monitor your vital signs and help your healing. However, the true reason for your improvements was the C-Grade Blood Solution and Lord Zarak’s hypnosis.”

Abin knew that her words generated more doubts in Levi, so she continued.

“A Blood Solution is a special fluid used to treat wounds and nurture the body of life forms. They are fundamental in the process of limb and organ regeneration.

C-Grade Blood Solutions were meant to help Wave Champion, so your body and Rebirth Heart had all the energy they could use until reaching their saturation point.

Of course, the fact you had the energy at your disposal did not mean you could use it.

Luckily for you, Lord Zarak used his power to put your mind and body into a state of Embryonic Breathing.”

Before Levi even had to ask what Abin referred to with Embryonic Breathing, she gave him an accurate description.

“Lord Zarak reactivated the electromagnetic circuitry you used to have as a fetus, allowing your entire body to draw energy from the surroundings at a cellular level.

A high-grade Blood Solution plus a deep state of Embryonic Breathing can help you stimulate your potential and push your body to its true peak. That is your current state now.”

Levi was genuinely amazed by what he had just heard. Being able to provide so much help to someone made it seem that Zarak had extraordinary supernatural powers.

However, Levi was a little worried about all that help. He knew there were no free meals in this world and had no idea what Zarak would want from him.

As if being able to read Levi’s mind, Abin’s next words calm down the cadet.

“You don’t have to worry. Although the C-Grade Blood Solution and Embryonic Breathing can be considered great lucky chances for Wave Warriors, they are not that important for Lord Zarak. He said that you could take them as a reward for defeating that Atrox Wave Champion.”

Levi nodded, and although there were still some concerns, there was not much he could do about it. He got in the teleportation matrix along with Abin, and they both vanished the next second.

The next thing Levi saw was a massive room with skulls and weapons hanging from the walls. Suddenly, his eyes burst with coldness and killing intent as he saw four people with red robes engraved with volcanos.

Three of them were middle aged-man with fiery red eyes. A hood covered the face of the last one, and this one stood behind the others.

The one at the head of the group was a bald man, and when he saw the killing intent on Levi’s face, he showed a nasty smile.

“It has been a long time since we saw each other, Young Master. I don’t understand why you show such animosity to your old uncle Mirak.” The middle-aged man spoke mockingly, and there was not a single ounce of respect in his voice.

Levi’s eyes burned with even greater wrath as he heard Mirak’s words, but he felt Abin’s gaze urging him to keep moving. He walked forward until he stood to the left of Zarak’s throne, staring directly at those men with volcano robes.

Zarak’s eyes moved between Levi and the group. Even a blind man like him could see the immense hatred between the two parties. Yet, his face showed no concern at all.

“Now that all the parties are present, you can state why you came here in such a hurry,” Zarak spoke calmly, and there was even a trace of boredom on his face. It seemed that he did not care about anything that was happening.

Unlike the nasty smile Marik gave to Levi, he adopted an extremely respectful and severe expression as he turned toward Zarak.

“Yes, Lord Zarak. We came here to bring Levi Hellblazer back to his home so he could enroll in Hellblazer University.”

Levi’s eyes widened with shock and dread. He knew very well what the Hellblazer Family thought of someone like him, so nothing good would happen if he left the Imperial Lightning Fort.
