Chapter 600 600: Scarlet Inquisition Force (I)
Gigant, the Duke whom Cain met in the Colossus Sector, turned toward the Titan with golden eagle features as he heard the question. Soon, all other Titans and Divine Ascension Masters turned toward him with inquisitive gazes.
Although Gigant was a reserved person and did not like to talk about others, the truth was that all that happened around Cain had also come as a shock to him.
Since they would be working under the young man, it would help the Titans to have an idea about Cain's nature, so in the end, Gigant chose to speak.
"In all fairness, I don't know the Sun Avatar too much, as the truth was that he never truly opened up to me. However, I can say he is a very pragmatic and straightforward individual, and any form of flattering will be useless. If anything, he would only look down on you. For a man like that, the only thing that matters is results. That is all I can say."
A solemn expression appeared on the faces of the Titans as they heard those words, and it was clear they would be working for someone who would not tolerate any form of mistake or insubordination. Although following someone like that was strenuous, it also meant that person would make sure everybody did their part, something very important in a mission that involved over a million soldiers.
Suddenly, the eyes of the Titans narrowed as they turned toward the teleportation formation on the ground of the empty dungeon. A figure appeared and the next second this one rose to the sky like a comet, immediately standing higher than the entire army.
As soon as Cain appeared, the more than one million warriors focused on him. For anyone else, it would generate immense pressure as not only was that military force tempered in the battlefield and with an overwhelming slaughter aura, but it contained figures at the peak of Aether.
Yet, the only thing every single one of the soldiers, from the youngest Wave King to the mightiest Titans, saw were eyes glowing with a red light full of absolute and complete resolution without a single shred of doubt or hesitation.
Cain was a Master of Order, and there was a sense of complete and absolute control emanating from the bottom of his soul. There were a lot of things a good leader needed, but the most important one was the ability to make the hard choice without hesitation. Clearly, the young man in front of them was able to carry that responsibility.
Silence reigned for a moment as the soldiers stared at Cain, but it did not last long as a sharp light appeared in the ten Titans. Every single one of those monsters capable of shattering the earth clasped their hands and performed a solemn nod.
