Blood Energy (I)

The young man that drew the attention of dozens of people across the Gaia Continent was currently at the bottom of a giant cauldron, feeling how his entire body was boiled alive by a river of scorching blood. 

The heat was excruciating, and the moment Cain was outside Morgana and the other scientists' view, he immediately activated his Wave Cloak. 

Unfortunately for Cain, while his Astral Wave Cloak granted a layer of protection, it was not enough to fight off the heat. Things could change if he used Wave Burst, but that sudden spike in energy could alert Morgana, so he could not do it. 

Cain's body was livid red due to the heat, but what happened to his face was even more shocking, as this one was melting. Of course, that was not really Cain's face since, even for someone like him, something like that would carry a level of unbearable pain.
