Chapter 3918 Seeding
"It was a nice battle," said the woman as we shook hands. "It was. I had learned a lot," I said, before walking out of the arena with her.
I have fought two battles today and the loss of both.
One of my opponents was Mid-Sky Sovereign controlling their power, while a woman just now was the same level as me, but more experienced.
In the past month, I am changing my fighting style a little. Listening to Lidris's suggestion, but is making me lose quite a lot of battles.
I don't seem to mind, seeing I am making the improvements.
I walked out of the arena, before appearing at the main gall, where gates to many arenas lead.
There are many people there, watching the battles, that are not private.
I sat down and watched with them, as I do usually.
My eyes are toward the projection showing battles between the Sky Sovereigns, but my real focus is on the two battles of Sovereigns and one of the battles of Earth Sovereigns.
Fortress is where most Sky Sovereigns live, but there are also the talented core members and descendants of leaders.h.i.+p.
Today is the day of seeding.
It had been four days since the soul sense had left me. It had come back several times, staying on me for a few minutes to an hour before disappearing.
It had appeared during the battle before it disappeared again in a few minutes.
These three people, I am targeting are specialty chosen.
They are talented, but they are also a direct descendent of the higher-ups.
One is even a descendant of the spire.
These people are the ones who would be most trusted and would get the secret opportunity, that the organization has.

Twenty-two minutes pa.s.sed, when finally, the door opened, and two tired-looking Sovereigns came out.
My target is the silver-haired young man. He is a new Sovereign. It hadn't been even a month since he had made a breakthrough into the level but still was able to defeat his opponent.
Many congratulated him; it only looked before turning back to the battle, I was watching.
While I did that, a seed came out of me and floated toward the silver-haired man.
It is very risky to use the seed in a place where there are so many Sky Sovereigns. Some might be able to sense it, but it is also the best place.
Here, no one will suspect me.
The seed soon reached the silver-haired young man and began to move deeper, where n.o.body would be able to sense it.
A few minutes pa.s.sed, and the young man went to the spar again, and the seed reacted. I began to get information on him rapidly, and within a minute, I got his complete meta-scan.
'It's clean,' I thought, looking at his const.i.tution.
Maybe he hadn't started on whatever there was, maybe he wasn't chosen.
I didn't let myself get disappointed.
A few minutes pa.s.sed and Earth Sovereign came. The seed came out and went inside her.
I didn't get much information as she had left.
If it had been my regular seeds. I would have got information already, but these seeds are different.
They are more focused on stealth than investigation. Here, they would only collect internal data, when the person will use their power.
If they didn't, they would hide deep within, that even Prime would have a problem in finding them.
I don't like it, but it is the safest approach. I can't take risks, especially when I think, there is a living being related to it.
I was thinking that when the last Sovereign came out, my seed had gone for him.
After a few minutes of rest, he returned to the arena, and I began to get the data.
What I saw put a smile on my face.
The man is High-Sovereign with the lightning const.i.tution. The grade of his const.i.tution hadn't changed, but the changes had provided him the benefits.
It enhanced the elemental familiarity but also strengthened the body and soul through the const.i.tution.
'I need a large pool of data,' I thought when I looked at its meta-
scan.
The large pool of data will help me make sense of a lot of things. It will also help me see the patterns, which are very important.
I cannot take the risk of seeding a large number of people. If someone with my seed gets caught, I need to have a way out; I can let them suspect me.
I need to do this slowly and surely.
Rus.h.i.+ng would only help the other party, and I don't want to help them. I want to help myself and for it, a cautious approach is the best.
A few minutes later, the battle ended, and got up and left the arena.
I didn't go back to my suite directly. First, I went to Alchemy and collected the material I had asked them to prepare before walking toward my suite.
What they created is a waste of money.
I hate that I needed to pay for this worse s.h.i.+t, but I need to maintain the cover.
While I walked toward my suite. My clone had already started working on changing the aura of material I use in practice, similar to the s.h.i.+t I had just brought.
I had not seen them focusing on it after the first few days, but that doesn't mean, they won't look again.
I need to get ready for everything. I cannot let them find out anything suspicious about me.
Thankfully, I am not the only one they are focusing on. In the month I have been here, I have seen sneaky soul sense covering a few people.
It is clear they are suspicious of those people.
I have memorized those faces and wanted to seed them, but didn't think it would be wise.
If any of them are caught. Their every inch would be scanned. There is a chance that my seeds could get caught.
I could program them for such things, but I rather not take such risks unless I have no choice.
