18 Reward and Power up

After leaving Seth's house, I had to rely on a taxi for my return since I had already sent Jin back to Incheon with my car.

While I was resting comfortably in the back seat. Rooh's voice came to my mind.

[Master, Crew: Workers from Seoul send an envoy, requesting for a meeting with you with their Chairman.]

"Is that true? Eugene desires to have an in-person meeting with me. Rooh, tell him to visit our main branch in the evening."

[Understood Master]

Currently, it is morning time, and I barely attend my school. Our Ananta Groups sponsor the school, so I don't need to be concerned about my academic pursuits and can instead focus on honing my skills in martial arts. It's fascinating how money can provide such opportunities. Hehe.

I guess now it's time to check the rewards from the sparring. I can't wait to see the effects.

'Rooh, show me the scanned result from sparring.'

[Yes, Master.]

[Cultivation Method acquired: can absorb refined energy from nature to store in the body core.]

[Wind elemental sword style acquired: core energy can be used to control wind elements during attacks.]

'Hehe, Great, Rooh, is it possible to cultivate unrefined energy to store in the core like my electromagnetic energy by modifying the cultivation method?'

[Yes Master, it is possible as your body cells are resistant to radiation, it won't harm you negatively.]

'Good, Rooh, transfer me all the information immediately.'

It is better because an unrefined source of energy is much more powerful and destructive than a refined one and it is present in much more percentage in nature.

[Understood Master, transferring scanned data directly to your brain.]

'Argh, ha, it still feels like shit receiving information all at once in the brain. Anyway, it's great I can understand everything about the Cultivation method. I can't wait to start cultivating this new power.'

Upon arriving at his house, Rudra wasted no time and headed straight for the training room. There, he assumed the lotus position, focusing on his breathing in a specific sequence. At this moment, his primary objective was to cultivate the unrefined energy, channelling it towards the creation of a core point within his body specifically designed for storing energy.

This is the modified cultivation method he created for himself by scanning Anna's cultivation method and customising it according to his bloodline ability.

As Rudra continued his cultivation, a vivid dark green light materialized within his abdomen, signifying the activation of his core point. This newly formed core point commenced its task of gradually filling with the unrefined energy he had been cultivating.

Seeing this achievement, Rudra couldn't contain his joy.

"This is amazing! It feels incredibly refreshing," he exclaimed.

"It's as if I have two hearts now," said Rudra, overwhelmed with excitement.

[Congratulations, Master.]

[Energy core successfully created.]

[Master Due to the successful creation of the energy core, now your body is strong enough to utilize more prowess from the acquired genes.]

"What? Haha, is that for real? That's awesome, Rooh." said Rudra, dumbfounded by jumping in excitement.

[Yes Master, to fully harness the genes' abilities, body reformation is recommended. Should I begin the process right now?]

"Oh yes, please start the process."

[Starting body reformation process, using 10 corpses as raw materials from the remaining 40 corpses.]

These are the corpses which Rudra absorbs with predator skill for raw materials previously, while eliminating Mad Dog and his cannon fodders.

Ding!

[Process completed successfully]

[Master, your gene's efficiency rate rises from 20% to 35%.]

Rudra underwent a transformative change. As a result, his physical appearance underwent a significant alteration. His height has increased to 193 cm, accompanied by a substantial weight gain, making him now 100 kg heavy. The restructuring of his body also led to the development of clearly defined and prominent muscles, enhancing his physical prowess and giving him a more imposing presence.

"Woah, I can feel strength overflowing in my body." said Rudra, admiring his body.

"Rooh, show me a detailed description of my new abilities."

"Keke, now no one in this area can stop me. I should be the strongest one here, at least among half-bloods." said Rudra with a self-assured chuckle.

Rudra, with the assistance of Rooh, examined the societal structure in this world and concluded that human beings of this world possess unusually robust genetic traits that have been inherited since ancient times.

Certain individuals in this world, who are exceptionally rare, possess the ability to instinctively harness this refined energy. This innate capability enables them to attain extraordinary levels of prowess akin to those of superhumans.

The individuals belonging to ancient clans who possess pure bloodline genes are primarily aware of the existence of this refined energy in nature. They actively cultivate this energy to elevate their physical capabilities and engage in the practice of their ancestral Old Arts, which have been passed down to them through generations.

Each clan possesses distinct bloodline capabilities unique to its lineage. For example, the Hanma family's bloodline grants them the gift of the demon's back, bestowing them with extraordinary physical prowess. In the case of Rudra's mother, she is renowned for possessing potent mind genes, making her an exceptional practitioner of mind martial arts and establishing her as the most formidable individual in that discipline.

In the evening, after the completion of his body reformation process and practicing his new Wind Sword Style Martial Arts, Rudra drives to the main branch of Ananta Groups, his primary business establishment for his meeting with Eugene.

"Rooh, did Johan come for his mother's treatment?" Rudra asked, resting in his cabin to Rooh at his side.

"No, Master, he didn't come," replied Rooh with her indifferent expression.

"Huh, but he was so desperate about her mother's health though. Ha, I have a bad feeling about this. Rooh tracks his location right now." said Rudra in a tense tone.

"Understood Master, I will search for his whereabouts." replied Rooh.

Knock! Knock!

Suddenly, the door to the cabin knocked.

"Yes, you may enter," said Rudra.

It was Jin who knocked on the door, and he enters with a small box in his hand.

"Sir, we have received this box from an anonymous person," said Jin in his cold demeanour.

"What is in this box?" asked Rudra.

"Sir, I think, you should see this for yourself." said Jin hesitantly.

"Rooh, open it," asked Rudra, curiously.

Rooh took hold of the box and proceeded to open it. Upon seeing the contents within, Rudra's expression transitioned from curiosity to anger, indicating his displeasure with what was inside the box.
