My Bio-Nanotech System

Chapter 25: Power Of Awakeners

Khan suddenly paused in his steps raising both hands upwards. In front of him, the nuzzle of a gun was pointed, held by a purple-haired girl.

"M11 Assault rifle? Not bad..." Lilith said as she removed the weapon from his face, placing it back in the bad pack.

"You don't mind, do you?" She asked Khan who raised his eyebrow seeing as how all his tools had been removed from the bag and placed on the table, but looking at the purple-headed girl who seemed to have been giving some type of toy, he simply shrugged it off.

"Hmm, a light katana. It's so beautiful. And 10 button-sized grenades? Really cool..." Lilith said as she revolved the katana in her hands, taking swipes in the air before pointing it at his nose.

"All this equipment is cool but you know they aren't much use right?" Lillith said staring at him with a deadpan expression.

"Oh? And what does that mean?" Khan asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"You're fighting against gene awakeners. Even if your weapon can cut through them, will you be able to react fast enough before you get your head ripped off? They are called awakeners for a reason, you know?" Lilith said before placing down the Katana and picking up the rifle.

"Also the firepower of this weapon is great but against real genetic abilities, then it's nothing much. Against a fireball that moves at thrice the speed of sound and a thousand degrees Celsius or an awakener moving at thrice the speed of sound, you think a rifle is a good match...". Lilith said with a raised eyebrow.

"Let us just say I have my way..."

"Yep, a quicker way to die. Just a piece of good advice. Don't face a Meteor rank stage awakener of abyssal with this. You'll be reduced to a pancake quickly..."

"Oh yeah? How strong are Meteor rank stage Awakeners anyway?" Khan asked with an uninterested expression as he slowly arranged his Tech tools back into the bag.

"Hmm, actually 1st to 3rd stage Early Star rank is the first stage of cultivation and it's not much different strength from a normal human. But 3rd to 7th grade is the strength of an adult. 7th to 9th is the Peak of human strength. Just a level higher than the strongest human on Earth.

But once reaching the Meteor rank stage. It's a level beyond the peak of humanity. They are no longer human and better could be regarded as Superhuman. We call them awakeners instead. Not only stronger and faster than regular humans, they also possess abilities making them even more deadly."

"Very interesting, and what stage of cultivation are you?" Khan asked as he took the rifle, gently placing it back into his bag.

"2nd grade Meteor rank stage..."

Khan's hands slowly buttoned the bag unknowingly slowing down as a glint flashed in his eyes before he unzipped the bag completely.

"You're very strong at such an age too..." Khan said nodding and looking into Lillith's eyes. He was sure she was at most just 20 years yet she was already at the 2nd Meteor rank stage. That's truly incredible.

"Of course I am. What were you expecting from the number 12 most talented genius in Starlight..." Lillian said with pride.

"Umm, number 12?" Khan asked with a raised eyebrow.

"There are over 50,000 students in Starlight Academy..."

"Oh. Then that's truly incredible..." Khan said packing both suitcases in his hands before moving towards the room.

"Thanks for the advice Lillith. I'll be fine..." Khan said, his back disappearing from view.

'He's strange. Clearly a mortal yet I can smell a dangerous aura from him. The weapons show he truly can't use Mana or he won't resort to using such inferiorities. Then why?' Lillith thought to herself looking at the place where he disappeared from view but she shrugged it off before moving in the opposite direction.

Without Mana. It is a dream to be able to defeat even 7th-grade star awakeners talkless of Meteor rank experts.

Khan arrived in the medium-sized room, placing the suitcase in his hands on the table before moving over to the table.

On it, a surprise package could be seen as Khan arrived before it before slowly unfurling.

And in it, were three round neck shirts with three black pants.

Looking at the small piece of paper placed at the side, he opened it as it read

"Found a couple of things in the shop that might suit your taste,"- Sophia.

It seems she was the one who bought it.

"Thank you..." He muttered, gently tucking the letter in the box before covering them.

Since he just arrived here, the only clothes on him were the ones he wore on the last mission. His sleeping dress!

He already planned to get some clothes from the mall but he arrived too late from the Abyssal Core Guild and planned to get them the next day.

Now all he needs to get is a communication device.

"I'll settle everything tomorrow..." Khan muttered before heading towards the bed as his tired bones made a squeaking sound, melting into the comfort of the bed.

It could be said to be pure luck he came in contact with such a nice family. Not only did they feed him like he was their son, they even gave him a room to sleep in and immediately accepted him into their family.

It was a great blessing yet also strange but Khan didn't think too much about it. He would be getting a new home once he completes the mission and resumes his life, completing missions from the guild just like in Suicides City, except this time he was walking towards an important goal.

With that, he slept off, the sound of gentle snoring reverberating through the room a few minutes later.

-- -- --

2 days later.

The day of the Ruins exploration finally arrived and the ringing sound of a device rang throughout the room.
