After experiencing killing millions in his past life memories, murder could no longer affect Cain’s mind. Especially if the ones he killed were people that would not have hesitated to end his life so they could take his belongings.

Cain’s true nature was that of a hero, but his own version of what a hero meant. He would protect the people he cared about, save any innocent he found on his journey, and butcher all evil in his path.

Cain went toward Old Fox, and after ensuring that the man was unconscious, he sat by this one’s side and rested for a little while. He felt mentally exhausted.

Although hypnosis was an extremely powerful technique and seemed very easy tp display, nothing could be farther from the truth. It required immense mental effort to place someone’s mind under hypnosis, and just the most basic command required all of Cain’s focus.

After a few minutes, Cain was able to recover a little and turned toward Old Fox before putting a hand over this one’s head.

“Wake up.”

The target being unconscious did not mean Cain could not put this one under hypnosis since the brain still worked perfectly fine. In any case, it only made things easier as this one’s mental defenses were lower.

Old Fox opened his eyes, but they had lost their focus, making it clear to everybody who saw him that his mind was in an altered state.

.....

“Who else knows about you coming to this place and doing this transaction?”

Old Fox showed no resistance and immediately answered Cain’s question.

“No one else in the organization knows about it. The only ones privy to this deal were the men I came with.”

Cain’s eyes narrowed when he heard those words. He did not doubt that Old Fox belonged to some criminal group, but the fact that this one used the word organization disturbed him.

“Explain to me what organization you belong to.”

“I am part of the Ancient Feral Organization. We are a criminal group with our headquarters in Jarken County. We use animals as our code names, and the prefix determines our status in the organization.

Juvenile, Young, and Great are used for warriors, while those that handle logistic affairs use Aged. Those with the Old prefix are special, meaning they have a strong background within the organization.

A council formed by nine people lead our organization. Each is called an Ancient Beast, with my big sister being one of them.

I am unaware of the strength of the other eight, but my sister is a Level 9 Essence Wave Warrior.”

Cain showed an awkward smile as he heard all that information.

‘It seems I have kicked a hornet nest. My luck is truly unbelievable. Well, there is nothing I can do about it now.’

Although Cain was a little annoyed that the criminals he had just killed had such a complicated background, there was no way to turn back time now. Besides, even if he could, he would not change anything.

Before, an organization with Level 9 Wave Warriors and possible Wave Champions would have been an existential threat to Cain, but now they were just a problem.

‘Usually, in a criminal organization, the higher-ups will always get their cuts from anything the underlings did. I guess Old Fox did not share this endeavor with anyone else because he wanted to secure all the profit.’

Cain confirmed his guess after asking it directly to Old Fox before asking more questions about the Ancient Feral Organization. He wanted to know everything he could about them in case they came knocking on his door in the future.

After roughly thirty minutes, Cain was able to get a comprehensive understanding of the Ancient Feral Organization.

“Last question. How many people have you killed with this type of scheme?”

“Forty-eight.”

“I see.”

Cain said nothing else before slapping Old Fox’s head with all his strength, making it explode like a balloon full of blood.

There were many ways to handle Old Fox, but Cain chose to use the more definitive. Everybody from the Ancient Feral Organization that came to this forest was dead, and no one could reveal Cain’s involvement.

During the interrogation, Cain had asked for Apex to hack Old Fox’s space ring, and he could now use it. He stored the old man’s belongings in it before doing the same with the trio’s artifacts and blasting their heads.

The blood will attract the Wave Beast from the surroundings, and they will not leave a single hair of those energy-rich bodies. Cain could have also stored the corpses in his space rings, but he had no idea if there was a way for people to track them somehow, so it was better to be safe than sorry.

Once he finished handling the corpses, Cain scanned the surroundings with his Ego Wave and [Basic Scan Force Field], making sure there was no evidence of his presence here before leaving.

Cain jumped from one tree to another on his way back, ensuring he left no tracks on the ground. As he left the battlefield, he issued a command to the Absolute Life Form System.

“System, how much Destiny Force did I gain from this last encounter?”

Immediately a robotic voice echoed inside Cain’s mind.

[Destiny Force obtained: 2.3 points]

Cain’s eyes widened as he saw how little he had obtained. He could understand that Old Fox would not grant him much since the old man did not have much time left and was weak, but the other three were relatively young and with high cultivations.

“Brat, do not expect much from people like that. For starters, low-level criminals have weak destinies. Most are considered nothing more than disposable pawns in the eyes of the higher-ups.

Not to mention that your destiny had risen a lot, so the fact you gained anything from them was already impressive.”

Cain showed an awkward smile as he heard that. He had forgotten just how much he had grown over the last few months.
