Capítulo 899: Stump

Colonel Norrett was properly excited now. He had almost accepted that his chances to aim for the extreme induction were gone, but Khan was giving him hope, and the bright eyes in his view reinforced it.

"Besides," Khan continued. "I need someone able to deter my family's attacks until I can do it myself. A simple evolved warrior wouldn't do."

"I heard you were still a fourth-level warrior," Colonel Norrett commented.

"Do I look like a fourth-level warrior to you?" Khan asked.

Colonel Norrett had many answers, none befitting his new position. Nevertheless, his silence satisfied Khan, who stood up and began returning to the ship.

"Khan," The Colonel called, remaining on the ruined pool's edge. "Would it be possible to meditate here for a while?"

Khan had crossed the Colonel but turned to inspect him. Some eagerness had filled the man, and his eyes often fell on the pool, revealing the target of his interest.
