“By the way, have you considered enrolling in a Profession Class?”

“What? That is still going on?” Cain was honestly surprised by that question.

According to the original schedule, the time for Profession Class enrollment was two months ago. The attack of the Dark Races’ powerhouses clearly messed up the whole thing.

Cain was not interested in taking any Profession as they would drain much of his time, and he did not find any useful. What truly drew his attention were Military Specializations, and since the enrollment for Profession Classes was still open, it should be the same with these.

“Although the courses originally were meant to last for six months, the higher-ups decided to change things, generating crash courses that will only last three months. You still have a month to enroll in one of them.”

Lurin deduced that Cain was unaware of that information, so he shared it.

When the other cadets saw Cain’s smiling, they mistook it as this one being excited to take on a Profession, so they all began to share their thoughts.

“Since you are interested, how about becoming a Wave Crafter? No matter where you find yourself, everybody needs Wave Artifacts.” A young man with a thin frame spoke to Cain. Although he was the smallest of the group, his cultivation was the second highest, having reached Level 3.

.....

“Green, are you stupid? Wave Crafters need insane precision over their Wave to form the matrixes that give the weapons and armor their power. That is a Profession that only Essence Wave Cultivators take, not someone like Cain, that is an Astral Wave Cultivator.” The same bulky man from before berated the thin one named Green.

Despite his thin body, Green was not a pushover and shouted back.

“Hmph, the only idiot here is you, Josef. It is true that most Wave Crafters are Essence Wave Cultivators but is not Cain’s mastery over his Astral Wave better than almost every Wave Warrior?”

When Josef heard that, he knew that Green was right. Still, instead of backing down, he shouted even louder.

“How did you just call me!?”

Lurin and the rest of the group only laughed as they saw that. It was clear they were accustomed to the duo fighting over anything.

Cain only shook his head as he saw that but did not plan to intervene. He knew they meant well but was not interested in taking a Profession.

A girl from the group moved closer to Cain. She had a small face and short golden hair. Although she was not as gorgeous as Beelze, she was still very pretty.

“Would you be interested in becoming a Genetic Coder alongside Lurin and me?”

The girl’s name was Ophelia, and she was one of the few Astral Wave Cultivators from the group. She did not think much of the proposition and just wanted to take her chances.

There was no way she could have imagined that the moment she finished speaking, Cain would turn toward her with sharp and cold eyes.

“What did you just say?”

Ophelia began to tremble as she saw two red eyes focusing on her.

Cain immediately noticed the girl’s state and knew he had made a mistake. He was not angry or anything like that. It was just that when he faced something that shocked him, he would enter that default state as it would be easier to handle things.

He took a deep breath, calmed his bursting Ego Wave, and smiled radiantly at the girl.

“I am sorry about that. The words Genetic Coder have a deep meaning for me, but I was unaware there was a Profession like that. Could you please explain it to me?”

Emotions can change rapidly according to the circumstances. All the fear in Ophelia’s heart vanished the moment she saw the radiant smile and green eyes.

Although Cain was not originally too handsome, his looks improved drastically after going through marrow washing. That, plus his magnetic aura and strength, made him very attractive to the opposite sex.

“Yes!” Ophelia could not help but shout before thoroughly describing what a Genetic Coder was.

“A Genetic Coder is someone that can manipulate the fundamental blocks of life. Back in the Old World, humans already had the ability to influence our genes, but our technology still limited us.

However, after reaching Aether and gaining control over the Wave, we have advanced to the point where all genetic diseases are long gone. And a Genetic Coder’s skills are more than just fixing mistakes.

They can generate all sorts of Wave Viruses capable of granting extraordinary abilities and expanding your lifespan. Some are even able to synthesize or even modify bloodlines.”

Ophelia just described the basics of the Genetic Coding Profession, but it was what Cain needed.

Lurin could see a meaningful light in Cain’s eyes as this one heard that description.

“If you are interested in becoming a Genetic Coder, I could share some knowledge my father shared with me.” Lurin wouldn’t normally make an offer like that but forming a good relationship with a martial genius and master strategist like Cain would only bring good things to him.

Originally Cain had no interest in any Profession, but things changed drastically after finding out there was one similar to one of the Absolute Life Form System’s modules.

“I will think about it,” Cain said nothing more before making his way back to the cadet section with the rest of the group. Once they were there, he said goodbye and went to his residence.

“Apex?”

There was no need for more words as the System Spirit knew what Cain wanted to ask.

“Brat, I told you from the beginning that the Absolute Life Form System can not make something out of nothing. That goes for its modules as well. You will learn more in the future if you grow powerful enough.”

Cain could only sigh and nod after hearing that. Apex had helped him, but he knew that this one was not his babysitter. The System Spirit would not provide any knowledge unless he asked for it specifically.

“Genetic Coding. I could take a look at it.”
