Chapter 479 Mitochondria And Nucleus

Chapter 479  Mitochondria And Nucleus

Northern spent some time thinking about Annette's bold plan even after she had left.

She had said to him that that was the best course of action she could go through in order to preserve her life.

And he was seriously considering if it was. And after a lot of objective thoughts, he could at the very least tell that there was a semblance of sense in whatever Annette was planning to do.

Even though she planned to return to the academy, she didn't plan to do it silently. Fact was, a place like the academy cannot be returned to silently.

It was the center of the continent and the center of attraction. The one place every clan, noble, and nation sets their gaze upon.

Apart from renowned drifters, the academy has also produced prestigious scholars, engineers, noble workers who have in many ways contributed to the advancement of civilization and technology in the Central Plains.

It was so much of a focal point that they had their own media outlet in every nation. And every country receives daily news of whatever is going on within its walls.

Of course, activities like this are spearheaded and overwatched by the student council who are a separate powerhouse in the academy, backed by their powerful parents and relationships.

Annette plans to cause a ruckus and use this powerhouse to bring herself to the spotlight.

Even if Rughsbourgh ends up being rash, he wouldn't be stupid.

She had also mentioned that she wants to build a life for herself. Now that she's a Sage, she can be greedy.

Being a Master, the most she could make of her life after she hit a great wall, was being a citadel instructor.

But now that she's a Sage, it was a different story entirely. The academy would pay heavily to hire a teacher like her. Moreover, her fire-based talent is a gem for the mage class.

While her plan looked bold and rash, Northern didn't think it was entirely reckless.

It made him question what he was going to do.

'All I just want to do is go home and meet my mother first. And speaking of that… why has Shin been avoiding the subject?'

His mind wandered off with a little bit of concern. Then he shook all the branches of thoughts that tugged his mind and lay on his bed, hands crossed behind his head.

He stared at the ceiling with an optimistic expression, 'I'm sure all is well. Maybe things have become complicated between the both of them.'

Northern let out a small smile, staring at the ceiling. Then a couple of minutes later, he closed his eyes to take a little nap.

—

Not long afterwards, Shin finally came inside.

Even though Northern was asleep, he had felt his father's footsteps coming even before he entered the building itself.

That was one of the boosts to his spatial awareness since he could see.

While being blind for the past one week, Northern had been surviving on spatial awareness to keep himself alerted.

This forced him to sharpen his senses to be able to tell steps apart from each other, most especially the people that visited him frequently.

Annette had a strong and intense stride, Vida was almost like Annette but hers carried a rhythm, Northern had sometimes wondered if it was intentional or unintentional.

And most of the time, she usually came with Annette, except the last time.

Ellis' stride was almost wobbly, the guy was always walking like he would fall every two seconds.

And Shin had a purposeful and calculated stride, sometimes soft and tender.

'Just like now'

As Shin entered the room, Northern opened his eyes and propped himself up slowly.

Shin, surprised to see his son's eyes opened, rushed to Northern's side, supporting him by placing his hands behind his slim back.

Northern looked at Shin and smiled with a nod, "I'm fine." He said as he placed his legs down.

He stood up and stretched his body, feeling his bones squeeze out all the accumulated fatigue of just sitting.

For the past one week, he had only tried to move just once. And that was when he tried to get acclimated with his body.

He was able to move, throw a few punches and kicks at Ellis but he felt like he was fighting in a box of darkness, and the punches he threw felt like guess punches and kicks.

Since then he just focused on meditation, he would enter the Limitless Void, sit on his throne and circulated the Void essence.

That was another thing that had changed since he became a Master.

This body was different from the kind of body he was used to.

The essence in his body before now felt like they were in a pool, all he had to do was draw and use them. Which was why he found it very easy to use his clones as a refill point.

One of the things his link between him and his clones was known for was its ability to ingrain in him the experience of his clone.

Of course, because he had grown much more powerful than they, and their experience had become much less significant than his overall experience, the process hurt less.

Their experience, abilities and moreover, gains are ingrained into his body. So when his clones are filled with essence in their essence pool, the essence being a 'real' product is transferred to him.

But now, it was different, the essence didn't just sit in a pool, they were flowing across his body.

Northern felt like that way, their effectiveness was enhanced and the amount of things one could do with their essence became vast and versatile.

It is probably why soul essence can take on the appearance of flame in Annette and a fundamental reason why her family was able to tap into the essence of flame itself, reforming their soul to take on its appearance.

And in the past one week Northern had learned a lot which made him conclude that, while Talent and talent abilities may sound like the mitochondria of a drifter, essence is the nucleus of the drifter.

It would be ignorant and stupid to ignore the versatility soul essence provides all because one has an overpowered Talent.

Northern exhaled in relief as he dropped his hand. Then he looked at Shin.

"We do have a lot to catch up on, don't we?"
