A Destained Young Master Villain

Following the whole ordeal involving Edward and Crystal, he proceeded towards the location of his ship, experiencing a sense of contentment regarding his scheme on this occasion.

Some time passes…

Zen boarded his ship and directed the ship\'s artificial intelligence to proceed towards the coordinates of his villa.

After that was settled, he proceeded to take the amethyst earring from within his ring. This artifact was called \'Amélioration des sens.\'

With great scrutiny, he meticulously inspected the intricate craftsmanship of the item. Once Crystal activated the artifact, its aspect underwent a notable transformation, transitioning from a gentle shade of purple to a dark purple.

Based on what Zen can remember from the novel, it appears that the Amélioration des sens artifact possesses the capability to enhance the sixth sense of a human five times.

The senses of touch, vision, hearing, smell, taste, and lastly, proprioception. For instance, using it once would bolster those senses with twice the potency of your present sense, and with each subsequent use, the enhancement would quadruple, escalate to eightfold, and so forth.

This truly represents an artifact of immense power, given its provenance as an item belonging to a progenitor. Consequently, it is logical to classify it as a Tier SS artifact.

Naturally, there were certain limitations in place, so that Zen would have access to only a fraction of its potential power. However, as his strength grows, he will be able to gradually use the full extent of its capabilities.

Zen possesses a considerable level of senses, such that, with focused attention, he can detect the movements of an ant at a distance of five hundred meters. If he were to utilize the artifact, his senses would be amplified twofold, thereby extending his range of perception to one thousand meters.

Senses are measured by the amount of aura or mana you have, and since Zen was rewarded with a Great Rank mana pool by the system, his senses are quite remarkable.

"This artifact will be incredibly beneficial to me." Zen stated.

[Destiny, don\'t I get a reward for activating it?]

▼ ▼

[No, dear host, your reward has already been bestowed upon you upon its acquisition.]

[Ah, what a shame.]

[There is no calamity greater than lavish desires.]

▼ ▼

[There is no greater guilt than discontentment, And there is no greater disaster than greed.]

[Greed is a bottomless pit that exhausts a person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.]

[Ok, Ok, I got it! What the f*ck, why are you suddenly preaching quotes to me.]

Four hours have passed, and while Zen was fiddling with the artifact in his hand, the ship\'s artificial intelligence uttered a message, announcing their arrival at his villa.

The ship successfully arrived at the designated docking area, and Zen disembarked from the ship.

"Good evening, young master."

"Good evening, young master."

The guards on patrol observed his emergence from the ship and promptly approached him to extend their greetings.

They had become acclimated to his actions after repeated occurrences, rendering them unsurprised.

This type of thing was comparatively far better than the past occurrence, when they witnessed Zen inflicting harm and torture upon a multitude of animals.

So they thought this was better than him doing that type of stuff.

Zen reciprocated their salutations and proceeded to make his way back indoors to his villa. When he got back inside, he glanced at three figures seated in the living room.

"Why are you guys here again? You guys are really using my villa as a hangout spot, huh?" Zen said.

"Ah, Zen, you\'re back. Don\'t mind us; we are just discussing something," Fiona stated as she stood up and greeted him.

"What do you mean, don\'t mind? This is my villa; stop barging in all the time; at least notify me first." Zen stated this with a reprimanding tone in his voice.

The three figures were Xue, Celestia, and Fiona.

Celestia and Xue rose from their seats and approached Zen with the intent to extend greetings also. However, once they came closer to him, Celestia discerned a subtle, sweet fragrance emanating from Zen.

"What is that smell? Did you meet some girl, Zen?" inquired Celestia, because of the delicate fragrance coming from him.

"Hey, Fiona come here, Zen met with a another girl." Celestia called out to her trying to tease her.

Fiona heard this, hastened towards Zen, and proceeded to sniff him as well.

"What are you two doing? Are you two dogs?" Zen commented.

Fiona was curious to learn more about the source of the odor emanating from him, but Zen deflected the topic.

"Where is Daphne, though? It looks like she isn\'t with you guys today."

Fiona then explained, "She has some matters to attend to with her family, so she couldn\'t come."

"Ah, and what were you all discussing about?"

Fiona and Celestia then explained the recent announcement by the Pontiac Academy, wherein it was communicated that the academy intends to proceed with the upcoming academic year starting next week, and would also be accepting new students.

Upon hearing their explanation, Zen turned his gaze towards Xue and stated, "Xue will be entering the academy too."

"Ok, young master," Xue responded, although she did not show it, she was really looking forward to experiencing academy life.

Xue is a simple girl with a few words. She\'s a master of the succinct vernacular at this point.

Fiona also jumped in excitement after hearing that Zen would be entering the academy too, and Celestia also had the same feeling.

\'It seems like the Academy would become more entertaining with him entering. Looking forward to the surprises he\'ll bring to the academy. But I hope he doesn\'t go overboard\' Celestia thought.

She still recalls the incident where Zen killed Goren; once Goren\'s family learns about it, he might soon find himself in some trouble.

After conversing with them, Zen went back to his room and contemplated,

\'I supposed Edward, Crystal, and Eliza would also be coming to the Academy.\'

\'They have nothing else to do outside since the only reason they didn\'t enter the academy yet was because they were looking for their family\'s artifact, which is now in my hands.\'

\'So I\'m one hundred percent sure that they\'ll be coming. It looks like the fun is about to start.\'

He was looking forward to entering the academy. He already have plans in mind on what he would do during his time there.

Zen also took out the amethyst earring artifact and tried it on.

He could use it by directing his mana or aura at the artifact. Once it was activated, his senses were multiplied twice. He could hear drops of water from a certain distance, which seemed to be someone showering.

After doing all that, he headed to the shower also and went to sleep. As he needs to go to the academy the next day.
