Jamie gathered what he knew. “Sacral Succubus are known to extract the life forces of humans, mostly men, in the form of luck-energy. This is primarily what they feed on to survive.”“But what we saw on the rooftop of my faculty building that night…..they weren't just consuming the life forces of those eight third-year male students, they were also harvesting and storing them away for later. What if there's a way to transfer the luck-energy into humans?”Stella sat upright when she heard this, her eyes widening. “Holy shit, Young Master, you might be into something here! In that case, those humans are using the luck-energy drained out of other humans and processes by the Sacral Succubi, for themselves.”Tom hummed in response. “Luck in wealth, love, and other forms of abundance becomes within reach for these people.”Jamie tapped his finger on the cushion on which he had his elbow propelled on. “I'm that case, then we're looking at every single rich ass, famous person or people.”Tom

Jamie could see that this woman could be a bit forward, but he simply took it as her way of easing him while in this foreign vastness. Therefore, she didn't hold it against the branch head. “Really? Alright then, how many battles does your branch deal with daily? I can see tens of soldiers rushing in and out. I'm kind of curious.”Chief Cassandra replied. “Young soldier, based on your level of evolution, I can see that you're already a member of the higher faction. Good, you seem quite capable. I can sense the invigorating blood pumping through you.”“This branch of mine faces no less than ten battles daily, and that's on the easy days. In the hard ones, we're looking at tens of battles daily. This is why we have thousands of AS99 soldiers here, to deal with dangers by taking shifts. It's a hectic life down here, but we've gotten used to it.”Jamie didn't shy away from asking more questions, seeing how receptive Chief Cassandra Jones was being. “I see. If I may ask, Chief Cassie, wha

The video played, and Tom, Jamie, and Stella watched it. It was quite hard to catch every detail, but they could see the outline of this creature. It was like a tall humanoid figure, masculine in a more specific form, seemingly crawling out of the ocean. The mist was thicker on the lower half of this creature, so they couldn't see what it was walking on.Needless to say, its outline looked absolutely horrendous. On the humanoid’s back, it seemed to possess extended thin, and long tendrils wiggling calmly in the air behind him, as if they were floating in the water.The watchroom had gotten really quiet as the video played over and over again. Jamie could feel the gloomy tension in the air just from watching this video, and his eyes glided around at the close subordinates within the room.There seemed to be anger, fear, and frustration at the forefront of emotions hanging heavy in the atmosphere of the room. Stella and Tom noticed this reaction as well, so Tom pressed on. “Chief Cass

Jamie took a moment to adjust his breathing to the toxic air, but he noticed that Stella wasn't affected at all by this. He then looked around at the one hundred AS99 soldiers with them, as well as Chief Cassandra herself None of these people was coughing like he was.He realized that the bodies of these people had adapted to toxic surroundings like this, without being affected as expected.Stella was already fighting the murders long before she was transferred to Los Angeles as his private general. As for the soldiers of the San Francisco branch, they probably adapted to this toxic air over time.Thus, Jamie found that he was the only one reacting this way, which made him feel slightly awkward.There was Tom Yates too, and seeing that the personal assistant didn't get an eye, Jamie confirmed that the enigmatic man also possesses a rich experience with environments like this, and is body must have adapted to it.He gestured to Stella that he would be fine. “I just need a couple of m

[If the young master doesn't pick up on what my power truly is after this, I admit that I would be a bit disappointed.]These were his thoughts, though. He shifted his focus on the wide beach before him and slowly raised both of his arms sideways. He released his reign in aura, as he was ready to carry out such a meticulous display of his true power.What followed left everyone shocked, except for Stella who simply didn't forget to continue playing her role of an ordinary AS99 high faction soldier who hasn't yet experienced the world of this organization to the fullest.Jamie stumbled a couple of steps back as he felt the wave of thick aura wash over him. His body froze for a second as he broke out in sweat. Once again, he was no longer feeling that stifling cold that was felt when those disintegrating laser walls were deactivated. It had become warm again, but this warmth was a direct result of the overwhelming thick aura filling up the place.Jamie shook his head. “This! Holy shit,
