Chapter 44: Jake Sullivan

Ten days before heading out for the Academy!

Eren was seen seated in his roo fro

Eren wanted to use a bigger, and better one But the area of influence the bigger Mana Blessing would have was enough for aunt Nina to figure out its presence

Eren concentrated and tried to take the ion below his navel The eventual outcome was realized finally

Eren felt like a black hole had been created inside his body All the surrounding F Rankby the Mana Blessing was getting absorbed by that blackhole genesis

A point of mass was created after the attraction force ended It felt surreal and real at the same time

Eren had an inactive F Rank mana core now in his body It only needed primary mana pathways for him to officially enter his F Rank journey

But Eren felt so was different about this time’s F Rank’s core creation The force of attraction was stronger than he remembered

Eren could see an intricate pattern that was getting faint when he checked his navel The pattern had disappeared after a couple more breaths

Eren could swear that he had seen that pattern somewhere It took hiulped down had the saotten about the biggest hts thinking about it, along with his past rets

It was just that he couldn’t do anything to solve the mystery around it And he couldn’t ask anyone either So he had to let it go Maybe the h

Eren tried to hts But he wasn’t successful He had to give up on his efforts after a couple more tries

Eren wasn’t disappointed He wasn’t in a hurry to know about the ti within hiht tih to ainst the obstacle now

Eren decided to freshen up His body was sticky due to the F Rank core for rank and enters a new one, its body goes through a purification process The body expels iorates itself

The body’s natural clock resets Halting or reversing the ageing process That’s why high ranked entities leave for longer and look youthful even when they turn hundreds of years old

The core for their ranking journey The mana pathould form eventually even when one doesn’t take additional efforts to do so

Eren will again experience another body cleansing when his h his body for the first ti events

Eren bathed thoroughly and took his ti before the mana pathways formed He just needed to expedite it before he leaves for the academy

Eren needed to visit the Osan woods Reen was basically the boss of that forest He wouldn’t have to face any risk And Reen knew about the location of a few precious herbs which would help hi easy on his body

But how could he convince Nina? She wouldn’t let hiet suspicious about his e keeping Reen in his roo her demon beast aura She was almost impossible to detect for the entities who had the same rank as her or below

But that didn’t mean Eren raised the difficulty by himself Reen was more useful when her existence and her abilities were only known to him

Your opponent would play their hand safely when they knew about the cards you’ve been dealt with

Therefore, Eren was always careful about dealing with stuff that was related to Reen He didn’t want to raise aunt Nina’s awareness unnecessarily for the same reason

Eren had a plan that he could use to cover anddetected Provided it gets executed flawlessly when he enters the academy

But that was for the future Till then, only Eren and Reen itnesses of her existence

Coet his hands on those herbs by visiting the woods And he needed a valid reason for his absence

Enter Jake Sullivan

Jake was the son of a businessman in the city of Osan His father Jack Sullivan dealt in the ioods

The business would provide raw ingredients to Nina at a discounted rate than usual In return, she would sell hiher rates at the right market outside the city

Therefore the businessman father had very cordial acquaintances with every healer in the city, including Nina

Jake Sullivan was a carbon copy of his father inand cordial at the same time He always talked sweetly And he was ready to make friends with everybody

Eren had seen an opportunity in Jake when he had coet out of aunt Nina’s supervision and visit the woods unsupervised

Things became even easier for Eren to make an acquaintance with Jake after he knew that he was also going to enter the LA academy with him
