124 Gic Coding


    Cain kept walking when a boy from the group spoke to him. He had a bulky body and long ck hair.


    “By the way, have you considered enrolling in a Profession ss?”


    “What? That is still going on?” Cain was honestly surprised by that question.


    ording to the original schedule, the time for Profession ss enrollment was two months ago. The attack of the Dark Races’ powerhouses clearly messed up the whole thing.


    Cain was not interested in taking any Profession as they would drain much of his time, and he did not find any useful. What truly drew his attention were Military Specializations, and since the enrollment for Profession sses was still open, it should be the same with these.


    “Although the courses originally were meant tost for six months, the higher-ups decided to change things, generating crash courses that will onlyst three months. You still have a month to enroll in one of them.”


    Lurin deduced that Cain was unaware of that information, so he shared it.


    When the other cadets saw Cain’s smiling, they mistook it as this one being excited to take on a Profession, so they all began to share their thoughts.


    “Since you are interested, how about bing a Wave Crafter? No matter where you find yourself, everybody needs Wave Artifacts.” A young man with a thin frame spoke to Cain. Although he was the smallest of the group, his cultivation was the second highest, having reached Level 3.


    .....


    “Green, are you stupid? Wave Crafters need insane precision over their Wave to form the matrixes that give the weapons and armor their power. That is a Profession that only Essence Wave Cultivators take, not someone like Cain, that is an Astral Wave Cultivator.” The same bulky man from before berated the thin one named Green.


    Despite his thin body, Green was not a pushover and shouted back.


    “Hmph, the only idiot here is you, Josef. It is true that most Wave Crafters are Essence Wave Cultivators but is not Cain’s mastery over his Astral Wave better than almost every Wave Warrior?”


    When Josef heard that, he knew that Green was right. Still, instead of backing down, he shouted even louder.


    “How did you just call me!?”


    Lurin and the rest of the group onlyughed as they saw that. It was clear they were ustomed to the duo fighting over anything.


    Cain only shook his head as he saw that but did not n to intervene. He knew they meant well but was not interested in taking a Profession.


    A girl from the group moved closer to Cain. She had a small face and short golden hair. Although she was not as gorgeous as Beelze, she was still very pretty.


    “Would you be interested in bing a Gic Coder alongside Lurin and me?”


    The girl’s name was Ophelia, and she was one of the few Astral Wave Cultivators from the group. She did not think much of the proposition and just wanted to take her chances.


    There was no way she could have imagined that the moment she finished speaking, Cain would turn toward her with sharp and cold eyes.


    “What did you just say?”


    Ophelia began to tremble as she saw two red eyes focusing on her.


    Cain immediately noticed the girl’s state and knew he had made a mistake. He was not angry or anything like that. It was just that when he faced something that shocked him, he would enter that default state as it would be easier to handle things.


    He took a deep breath, calmed his bursting Ego Wave, and smiled radiantly at the girl.


    “I am sorry about that. The words Gic Coder have a deep meaning for me, but I was unaware there was a Profession like that. Could you please exin it to me?”


    Emotions can change rapidly ording to the circumstances. All the fear in Ophelia’s heart vanished the moment she saw the radiant smile and green eyes.


    Although Cain was not originally too handsome, his looks improved drastically after going through marrow washing. That, plus his maic aura and strength, made him very attractive to the opposite sex.


    “Yes!” Ophelia could not help but shout before thoroughly describing what a Gic Coder was.


    “A Gic Coder is someone that can manipte the fundamental blocks of life. Back in the Old World, humans already had the ability to influence our genes, but our technology still limited us.


    However, after reaching Aether and gaining control over the Wave, we have advanced to the point where all gic diseases are long gone. And a Gic Coder’s skills are more than just fixing mistakes.


    They can generate all sorts of Wave Viruses capable of granting extraordinary abilities and expanding your lifespan. Some are even able to synthesize or even modify bloodlines.”


    Ophelia just described the basics of the Gic Coding Profession, but it was what Cain needed.


    Lurin could see a meaningful light in Cain’s eyes as this one heard that description.


    “If you are interested in bing a Gic Coder, I could share some knowledge my father shared with me.” Lurin wouldn’t normally make an offer like that but forming a good rtionship with a martial genius and master strategist like Cain would only bring good things to him.


    Originally Cain had no interest in any Profession, but things changed drastically after finding out there was one simr to one of the Absolute Life Form System’s modules.


    “I will think about it,” Cain said nothing more before making his way back to the cadet section with the rest of the group. Once they were there, he said goodbye and went to his residence.


    “Apex?”


    There was no need for more words as the System Spirit knew what Cain wanted to ask.


    “Brat, I told you from the beginning that the Absolute Life Form System can not make something out of nothing. That goes for its modules as well. You will learn more in the future if you grow powerful enough.”


    Cain could only sigh and nod after hearing that. Apex had helped him, but he knew that this one was not his babysitter. The System Spirit would not provide any knowledge unless he asked for it specifically.


    “Gic Coding. I could take a look at it.”
