Crimson Overlord

Chapter 242 Funny Coincidence



''Looks like exhausting 70-80% of my origin power had a positive effect on my overall origin pool."

It's like when an athlete uses up his stamina before resting, then, the athlete would experience a slight increase in his stamina. This applied to Nemesis's origin power training, other origin masters also experienced this effect. Except for those who hit their limits, this effect generally appears for anyone who did that.

It's a common knowledge among thel but not many if not a few would never experience the improvement Nemesis had, not even if they used their entire life to continuously exhaust and recharge themselves.

Aside from the perks granted to her by her mixed bloodline between angel and demon, most importantly, it was just the compounding effect from her already humungous origin power reserve. It wasn't easy to deplete her already huge origin pool. If she didn't plan properly, she would have recovered origin power faster than she could spend them.

By being an oddity, a weird mixed breed, she got inhuman returns.

'Time to check my hunch, whether it's right or wrong.'

Looking at the huge city, Nemesis could sense the hustle and bustle of the city and she sighed.

If that black light is inside, how does she even begin to look for it?

Shaking her head, she threw away the negative thoughts and Nemesis queued up like a normal citizen, gaining entry in a low-key manner.

°°°°°

The boundless blue sky, only the dull sunlight mingled with the endless blue aerial ocean. It looks like a great day to go out and have a walk, the temperature was just right so it'd be a great day for any jogger or pedestrians.

The serene sky, the rowdy city, meanwhile, a seemingly average male walked through the busy streets without attracting anyone's attention. The pedestrians were unaware that a major character was currently walking among them.

She doesn't look too beautiful or ugly. As she continued moving along the busy streets, she swept her gaze everywhere. It looked like she was a tourist taking in the scenery. However, she wasn't focused on the environment, she was waiting for her body to come up with a response.

Nemesis frowned while looking at the buildings around her. She silently cursed in frustration.

"Where is that damned thing? Is it really in this city? Stop making this hard and just pop out already..."

"The discomfort when my blood reacted and this uneasy calmness, why do I keep getting bombarded with annoying events..."

Nemesis' shoulder sagged as she scanned her surrounding once more. This time too, her blood didn't react. She started grumbling again.

"Ugh, when is this going to end..."

She psyched herself up as he exhaled slowly. Moving onwards, she decided that giving up now would be worse than just following through with her pursuit to the end. She also wasn't cool with letting the black light go, that vibe it gave her, she needed to extinguish that black light.

Nemesis average looks allowed her to blend in well with the crowd.

This average aura gave her the cover she needed to investigate the black light's trail. Any unwanted attention would hamper her investigation efforts.

"You don't even know this is the town where the Cyto Family operates in?"

"You're telling me this is their hometown?"

Nemesis was speechless.

After killing Marcus, the second in charge of the Camus Family, she chased the black light all the way to Camus family's hometown.

Talk about fate and coincidences.

"I see, so that's why they are walking around with heads held high..."

Nemesis chuckled.

"With the second most influential noble family behind them, I can understand why they are so cocky..."

"Please, they don't deserve the attention they are getting..."

The guy pursed his lips in disdain.

"So what if they are the second most influential noble power in all of empire, they still ate dust and came back dishonored."

"Oh?"

Nemesis asked with intrigue.

"What happened?"

"My little sister, it seems you have much to learn..."

The stranger wasn't aware that a level 4 origin master called him Big brother just a few minutes ago. If he did, he would probably be over cloud nine in happiness.

"You think they are here to show off? No, they came back as reinforcements!"

Nemesis flinched.

"Reinforcements? Did something happen in the Camus family?"

"Yeah, and it's huge..."

The stranger looked around warily as if he didn't want anyone to listen in on them. He furtively told Nemesis.

"Apparently, there's a ghost haunting the Camus family!"

"Ghost haunting?"

This was getting interesting.
