Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1281

Chapter 1281: Are You Sure?

Old Brama frowned. He could see why Sylas would assume he could, but this wasn’t exactly a quick task. If he wanted to do something like that, he would probably need several weeks, full access to every nook and cranny of the ship, and probably enough Mental Recovery Elixirs to bottom out a large lake.

Sylas shook his head when he saw the response. It was a disappointment.

Sylas, indeed, wasn’t listening. He had already taken out Andromeda.

The problem of storage device? He had yet to run into something the Madness Key couldn’t contain.

If he were a C-tier Rune Master, he felt that he would be able to do it with ease. But maybe he shouldn’t expect everyone to be the same level of Rune Master he was.

There had to be another path they took, then.

"He’s not listening, old man."

All of a sudden, all the bloviating Old Brama had done in his own internal monologue was thrown out the window.

Alex suddenly laughed. "I’m just messing with you. I have no idea what his Rune Mastery is at."

"What is your Rune Mastery at?" Sylas asked.

But Sylas’ expression was so deadpan and uninterested Old Brama almost felt like smashing his head against a wall.

Old Brama had never taken one of the tests or participated in any of the connected Secret Realms, so no one knew that he was actually one among them.

Some might think that Tiere alone was enough to do that. But Tiere was just another unproven commodity much like he was. Sylas didn’t take her very seriously at all, though she was a wake-up call to him nonetheless.

Old Brama almost snapped. It didn’t matter what level Sylas was at. Every tier came with exponentially more hardship and difficulty. Even if Sylas was a Rune Spark Master at F-tier, he wasn’t even guaranteed to make Rune Soul at E-tier, let alone Rune Flesh at C-tier.

"Do you have any idea how expensive that UniForge is? It has at least a millennia of the Golden Grove’s accumulated wealth poured into it. It can’t be stored in any random spatial device either. The materials are too high quality and the concentration of Aether pulsing through it is on another level.

Sylas practically did it all without a hitch in his breath or a wrinkle in his freshly tailored clothing.

Wait...

Kill the stowaways and then the captain?

It took just thirty seconds before Sylas spat out his first bits of information, streams of Rune drawings being etched into the air. These weren’t true Runes—they had no form or substance. But they carried the gist of the real Runes Sylas was seeing as though they were written in shorthand.

Not that he would know. They were too rare to actually document properly.

Thoughts circulated in his mind. freew\ebno\vel..(c)om

No, he needed another way.

He needed more strength.

"I’ll use Andromeda to analyze the ship. You will take what I’ve analyzed and see what you can do with it."

"Why don’t you ask him what his Rune Mastery is at, old man?" Alex spoke again, not looking up from his tabletop game.

"What do you mean even with Andromeda? I can’t use Andromeda. I don’t have time and space affinity. Plus, I left it—." Old Brama’s eyes narrowed. "... You didn’t, did you?"
