Kain didn't immediately leave the Order. For one, he was too exhausted to return to Dark Moon College. His body ached, his mind was foggy, and the thought of traveling through the treacherous forests surrounding the Order's headquarters was enough to make him want to collapse on the spot. Besides, he hadn't yet received the rewards for completing the mission or been reimbursed for his expenses during the mission. Those credits were crucial—not just for his own growth, but for the recovery of his contracts, especially Aegis and Bea, who were in dire need of resources to heal and evolve.
