Miles looked at Alex with marvel and doubt, “You already condensed your ultimate?” He asked in disbelief. Although he knew Alex was a genius, he still didn’t expect him to create an ultimate that even Merlin failed to create so soon after he advanced to Form-Rank.

“It is not complete yet. I was only able to create the skeleton.” Alex laughed it off. “It takes too much time for it to charge completely. If it wasn’t for my enemy to be my equal, it would be my loss. Luckily, I was able to hold him off while charging my ultimate.”

“It is still admirable.” Miles praised Alex. He was really astonished. Before coming to Beast Breeding Academy, the most talented person he knew was Merlin, but ever since he saw the students of the academy, his world perspective shattered over and over again. And most of the time by Alex himself too.

He was able to use two Strengthening Serums in Grace-Rank, while as soon as he advanced to Form-Rank, he used the third one. While most of the students enrolled the school would use the first one at the peak of the Grace-Rank and the second one when they advanced. If Miles hadn’t used the fourth serum, Alex would be weaker only by a single serum. With his superpower, he would be able to surpass him when it came to speed.

But that wasn’t all, no. Alex’s superpower was also super strong. Not only could he use lightning, one of the most destructive elements, but his superpower was also beyond the elemental lightning power. He was Norsen God Ukko’s incarnation. His abilities would surpass any other lightning elemental user.

On top of all of these, he was a peerless genius. Although he just advanced to Form-Rank, he already formed his ultimate. That was unprecedented! Miles couldn’t help but felt envious. ‘No need to complain. I have my lucky encounters too. Just Exaltedness of the Creator is enough. There can be no second person who can practice it in Unity other than me.’ Miles shook his head as he shut off the unnecessary thoughts.

“Let’s search them for loot. They should have some useful orbs.” Miles offered and they walked to two men they killed first. Miles left in a hurry to help Alex, so he wasn’t able to search his enemy for loot. When he arrived, the dead man was still clutching the sword in his hand. Miles grabbed the sword and realized it was a forged weapon and not an orb. He searched the man's body but realized he didn’t have any orb on him. At first, it surprised Miles, but when he thought it made sense.

The required monthly merit payment was too expensive, and couldn’t be paid easily. Most students could hardly risk going into Portal World and chose to work in the city instead. After all, the reason for them to come to the academy wasn’t the portal but lectures and field trips. They could learn so much from the tutors in the academy, and working in the city wasn’t stopping them from participating in lectures, on the contrary, they were scheduling accordingly to allow students to take all the lectures.

But coming to Portal World was unpredictable. No hunter could guarantee their return let alone returning in time.

Only a few like Miles and Alex would come to Portal World to hunt because they were confident of their abilities. So it was normal for that man to have no Frenzy-Rank orb at all. He had either sold it or never owned one. After all, the Frenzy-Rank orbs, unlike Grace-Rank, could only be used by one person and were too expensive.

Since all the orbs in Frenzy-Rank were confiscated by the academy upon entering to prevent students from exchanging them for Merits, most students didn’t have orbs to hunt. Luckily Miles had no orb at that rank, to begin with, and could hold onto his lower tier orbs.

Miles looked at the wristwatch and realized it was fried. The student would probably try to self-destruct it but the program uploaded to their wristwatches when they enrolled in the academy prevented them from that function. It wouldn’t give justice if a student or a group decided to blast half of the city, so it was just a precaution. But, the students or AI still fried its core to prevent others from accessing files inside. Miles shook his head and walked to David.

Alex was holding an orb in his hand. Miles looked at it and realized there was no silhouette swimming inside the orb. “Blood Orb?” He asked in his heart but shook the idea off. Blood orbs had silhouettes too.

“What type of orb is that?” Miles asked.

“It is an aura-type orb,” Alex answered as he charged the orb with his energy and lightning.

“Oh?” Miles was surprised by his action. People couldn’t balance the output of the electricity they wanted to use, thus wristwatches were mostly in charge of using the electricity to charge the orbs. Only lightning and electricity elemental orbs could be charged directly with the mentioned elements, but the color of the orb was not purple or blue. There was no indication of its element actually.

After being charged, the orb vanished and like mist, covered a certain area around Alex. Although Miles thought mist, the gasified orb couldn’t be seen with naked eyes. Miles had to move energy into his eyes to barely see the small particles in the air.

“I don’t know how that man acquired such a rare orb, but I am sure even he didn’t know how valuable this orb was,” Alex said and started to explain. “There are many different types of orbs, only the number of discovered orbs are in the thousands, yet we only ventured to a small portion of this world.

A new type of orb was found not long ago. It has the element strengthening attributes, named amplifying orbs. It has many forms, such as weapons, tools, and as such. Yet this one is an aura type. Aura-type orbs are also rare. Depending on the element they can increase the person’s attribute.” Alex’s explanation reminded Miles of the sword he acquired from Mihr Orril. At the time, he couldn’t decide what was the element of the weapon because it looked as normal as it could be. It turned out to be an amplifying orb.

It was normal for Miles to fail to discover its effects since he had no element nor superpower to amplify. Sword in his hand could only act like a normal elementless orb.

Miles shook his head helplessly and said, “You keep that orb. I don’t have an element anyway.”

Alex looked at Miles with surprise and asked, “You sure? This orb is too valuable. Although it is only low-tier, its value should be ten times more than pinnacle-tier orb.”

“I can’t use it anyway, and we already agreed that we will share the orbs in order. Since that is the third orb we found, it is yours.” Miles smiled and walked to David’s corpse to loot his body.
