Chapter 6 - Some Future Events

Cyril arrived at the train station and noticed that the Demon is looking around.

It appears that he's curious about the place…

"Sir Xagan, I assume that you can only talk to me, is that correct?" Cyril whispered his question.

Since the peak hours had passed, there are not many passengers within the station. However, he wanted to be careful as people might think that he's crazy.

"Mhmm… That's pretty obvious, kid."

"Well, are you interested in our world?" He ignored the Demon's mocking tone as he wanted to find something out.

"Of course. There's a lot of humans here… Which demon wouldn't be happy? Though as far as my eye can see, all of them are too weak. Haa~ You're accompanied by 15 decent humans before, where can I find them?" Xagan asked.

It seems that he's really planning to wreak havoc in this world once he's released.

"Decent humans, huh…"

Those decent humans that he's referring to are Awakened with Rank A level and the one leading them is at Rank S!

Sigh~

Anyway, Cyril still answered his question. Since they returned to the past, those people haven't awakened yet. After all, he's the oldest on that team!

"At this time, they should still be studying at school. But there should be about a hundred of those Awakened at a level of Rank A in our country."

"What? Isn't that too few?"

"Yes… Our country is small anyway. What matters is the quality of our Awakened." Cyril answered without any thought as the train he's waiting has arrived.

The Demon followed and no longer asked a question.

Cyril didn't bring a lot of things with him since he's planning to spend all of his savings instead. He wanted to prepare his actions once he completed the Awakening process so his current savings would no longer be useful at that point.

After all, a single mission of an Awakened within the Arcane World would earn them 50,000 Ains even if they are at the lowest class.

As he entered the train, he saw his reflection at the train's glass window.

He smiled looking at his self.

He's young… He's only about to turn 18 and he can feel his youthful vigor.

His black hair covers his ears and his tanned skin looks healthy…

'Hmm… Am I this attractive when I was young?' He asked himself while looking at his reflection.

Perhaps, he was too busy with his part-time jobs that he didn't think too much of his appearance. But he clearly remembers that he's not getting his hair cut because he wanted to save money and not to look cool.

After being satisfied looking at his young but manly face, he found a seat to rest…

He pulled up his notebook and read some of his written notes.

[ Important Things I Shouldn't Forget! ]

This is what he had written at the top of the page. It was then followed by a list of events that will happen soon...

From the long list, there are a few of them that are highlighted since they are things that he would consider as big or important events.

For this year, there are only 5 of them that are highlighted.

[ August 28, 2130 – My Awakening at Lowest Class! F-Rank ]

[ September 20-26, 2130 – Discovery of the new type of Artifact – The government will look for volunteers in an experiment for that! ]

[ October 1, 2130 – Opening of 5 New Arcane World that is suited for F to D Ranks! ]

[ December 25, 2130 – Abyssal Beasts would be discovered and the one who discovered will earn tons of money. ]

[ December 26, 2130 – An Awakened at A-Rank would murder a young and talented girl that was just recently Awakened at S-Rank. ]

He can easily recall the dates of the big events since there are festivals on the same dates…

As for the last part, it is nationwide news and was the headline to all kinds of tabloids. Tons of news articles can be found on the internet so even if he wasn't interested, he would still know about it.

Since the young girl had just Awakened, she was unable to defend herself against the experienced A-Rank…

'Well, I might consider helping her out if I got awakened on a higher rank. But still, if I think this through in a logical manner, I shouldn't save her. Ugh… I don't know.' Cyril is making considerations.

Part of him wanted to try and save her since he's pitying her. On the other hand, he didn't want to save her since his prediction of the future might change a lot…

After all, an S-Rank would surely affect the Awakened world on a larger scale.

'Ugh… I'll see to it when the time comes. Anyway, I must worry about myself first.'

Cyril then closed his eyes to thoroughly think of his plans…

He was also trying to recall all the locations of important Artifacts.. It was a shame that he wasn't too interested in them in his early years so he couldn't remember most of them.
