The next morning.
Maisa woke up with a flushed face. The memories of what she and Amon had done were vivid in her mind.
Obviously, she doesn't regret what she did, but still, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. 'I was very bold yesterday...'
She didn't even know when she would have that courage again, but in any case, she knew that Amon would think about her more often now, right, … right?
Well, at least that's what she wanted to happen.
.
.
The location of the tournament finals has already been submitted.
It wasn't very far, but Professor Flávia took her spaceship and asked everyone to go inside.
In a very short time, they arrived in front of the place they were told to gather.
"A ship port?" Barbara saw this as soon as she left the ship.
The others also came out and noticed.
Around them, many other participants who were closer had already arrived at the place.
"That ship..." Julia, who was finding her sister's reactions strange, finally freed her attention when she saw the luxurious white 4-deck ship. There was a lounge area, a jacuzzi, and even a swimming pool.
Professor Flavia looked at Julia, then she said, "We are getting on this ship to go to the next place where the tournament finals will be held."
"That's what I thought." Julia clicked her tongue.
Elijah swallowed hard; he couldn't even dream of having a ship like that. Even his stepmother wouldn't be able to buy something like that. 'One day, I will have it all!' His eyes glittered with greed.
Little by little, more and more people arrived.
Soon the one hundred finalists were already present at the site.
The mayor of the city appeared with a megaphone:
"Congratulations! To those who qualified. The top hundred will participate in the final selection match, which later will have a chance to fight the geniuses!"
"Yes!" Participants trembled with excitement at hearing this.
There were many journalists and famous television stations there, which made the participants' blood boil with excitement.
Even though they didn't particularly want to be famous, they still enjoy fame and being treated like the planet's geniuses.
Jardel, the arrogant man from Golden Phoenix University, was not there. Otherwise, he would have scoffed at calling them geniuses.
Maicon glared at Amon and said loudly, "Amon! I have no idea what kind of trick you did to get first place, but you can be sure I'll beat you and prove I'm much better than you!"
Amon shakes his head in disappointment. He could feel that Maicon's strength was far below his and said indifferently, "It is not possible. You are weak."
"You...! Damn you, you'll see who's weak!" Maicon advanced towards Amon, only to be grabbed by Professor Acerola.
"Student Maicon, stay cool, don't make a scene now. If you really want to fight student Amon, if you're lucky, you two will match against each other." Professor Acerola said.
The Stefano School's reputation was at stake. Even someone who was more used to using muscle rather than brains would understand that.
"Very well said, Professor Acerola." The vice principal said, "It doesn't matter what friction you have against student Amon. It must be resolved at the tournament."
"..." Maicon took a deep breath and said when he calmed down, "Okay, I'll make him eat those words when that moment comes!"
The city's mayor spoke again, "Okay, the finals will take place on Trinity Island, where preparations for the last step have already been set up. Everyone can enter the ship ahead of them, and, in a few hours, we will arrive at the designated place."
"As expected, we will use the ship to get to the next location," Julia muttered.
"Let's go." With her usual cold expression, Professor Flávia led the way towards the ship.
Even the deputy headmaster didn't mind her doing that. He wasn't sure of her background, but he knew it wasn't simple. Especially seeing her spaceship.
Amon and the rest followed, joining the ensuing line to board the ship. Little by little, they entered by confirming the identity of the participants.
.
.
Rooms were accommodated for each participant.
As they would use the same ship to return, the luggage they would take would stay in their rooms since there was an adequate level of security.
The people of Golden Phoenix University were already in VIP rooms, waiting to arrive on the island.
This time, Maisa chose to stay in the same room as Julia.
"Wow, so luxurious, but I think the rooms on the farm were a little better," Julia said.
"I agree," Maisa said as she sat down on the bed and felt the softness. There were two single beds in the bedroom, a closet, a television, and other furniture that looked particularly expensive.
"But never mind, we won't be staying long enough to sleep. At least I don't intend to sleep, but rather, to meditate until I get to the island." Julia changed clothes, wearing gym clothes, then she sat up in bed.
"I think most intend to do this. It's not the right time to enjoy the trip after all." Maisa did the same.
.
.
Ariel was calmer, she was looking out the ship's window, then she heard a loud horn that indicated that the ship would leave port.
'I think it's better to meditate a little.' With Amon participating, she knew she wouldn't get first place, but she was determined to get second place.
.
.
Amon connected with the rune: [Heart Without Limits].
At the moment, he didn't try to circulate the lightning genes but the fury genes.
Fury was more challenging to control than lightning genes by multiple folds. Unlike lightning genes, fury genes did not need to fill in empty genes. Instead, genes were created from scratch and filled with the fury genes.
The difficulty of doing this at the same time was greater than just filling in the empty genes. Maybe that's the reason that makes it so special.
Besides, Amon could sense that the fury genes were at least twice as powerful as the lightning genes. The proof of this was when he fought the pregnant head and stopped using the lightning genes to use the fury genes.
'At that moment, I lost control, luckily...' Amon was thankful for not hurting the girls. He remains aloof so that he can have the fury genes under his control.
'Amon, never, ever let yourself be dominated by the Fury genes.' Amon still remembers the words he heard from his grandfather when he was just 9 years old.
