Chapter 7 - Ch.14 Pathstrider Registration

As he enjoyed his time with his little sister, time passed by with a flash, and the entire day was gone just like that as Nexus picked up his sister in a princess hug.

Putting her down on her bed, he covered her body with a blanket. Looking at her, he gently patted her head as he wished her a good night's sleep.

"Good Night, Alina."

"Good Night, Brother."

After that, she closed her eyes. Nexus continued to stand, and after seeing that she had fallen asleep and no problem had occurred, he entered his bed.

Looking at the dark ceiling, he closed his eyes and called the Goddess of Wisdom and Freedom in his mind.

"Goddess, I would like to register as a Pathstrider."

"Dear Citizen, Nexus understood... I have signed you up for a test in three days; your fake profile has been used to sign up for it."

"Understood. Thank you for your time."

"Dear Citizen Nexus, it's my pleasure."

After which the voice of the Goddess disappeared, as for why he had to ask the Goddess to resurrect, well, it's for his safety. Although his path gained him a wave of popularity, it also brought its fair share of trouble.

Most genius-hunting Alien teams have already started to eye this sector; as long as he makes an unnatural move, they will be able to use divination to find his identity.

Although Humanity has anti-divination treasures or other measures, if he uses them, he will leave a trace that will be counterproductive. After all, using such treasures means that his genius is great enough to require the entire Human Alliance's protection, which will make Aliens hunt him without counting their cost.

He closed his eyes. There is no use thinking too much, after all, he is already protected and can trust the goddess.

Just like that, three days passed. In these three days, he remained in his home buying many Paths that have reached the Second Realm. He didn't activate his enlightenment but just memorized it.

After all, if he enters the state of enlightenment, then the time passed within enlightenment will be counted in weeks at his current level.

"Brother, be careful on the road."

Alina said as she fixed the collar of Nexus's dress. He was wearing a semi-formal dress today as registration was quite an important event. Although he doesn't like such formal clothes so as not to stand out, he will have to wear them for now.

According to the goddess, many alien spies have been found in this sector; it seems that to search for him, they have activated a lot of their spies.

"Don't worry, you stay safe, ok."

Nexus replied with a smile as he patted her head. Alina closed her eyes and showed a pleased expression as she enjoyed his touch.

After saying that, he exited his house, and a taxi was already parked outside his house; it was the service provided by the Registration Department.

Without saying anything else, he entered the taxi, which was a self-driving one, so he closed his eyes.

"A stranger."

He muttered as he noticed a figure walking on the sidewalk wearing an office dress, his eyes narrowed for a moment before relaxing.

Always concerned for his sister's safety, he had memorized all the faces that live and pass by this neighborhood. Thus, he knows everybody here, and it's quite rare to see a stranger.

Well, he put that thought aside for now; after all, it's not rare to see strangers, as people always move in and out of this neighborhood.

After a few hours of driving, the taxi stopped in a parking area as Nexus walked out, looking at the massive building in front of him. He couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

After all, this building was truly massive, and it had three floating buildings connected to it through an energy chain.

Although he has lived in this world for so long, he still couldn't help but marvel at the technology of this civilization.

After having a good look, he walked toward the building. After passing the security check, he entered the building.

It wasn't as crowded as he had thought it would be. Walking toward the front desk, he input his fingerprint.

"Room 4-C."

He muttered as he took the elevator that was marked as Room 4-C. After a while, he reached the fortieth floor. He finally saw a massive crowd; people were sitting or talking to their friends while waiting for their turn.

Nexus didn't stand at the entrance as he walked toward one of the corners of the room; he had already seen that it would take a few hours before his turn came.

"Yooo, which path did you follow?"

"Just a normal one.."

"HAHAh, This time this daddy will reach the ninth order."

"Ohh, Dream on, after all, dreaming is free."

"Have you heard of the Martial Immortal path?"

"Yes, it seems to be one of high potential."

"Bro, did you break up?"

Hearing the talk of the bustling crowd, he just shook his head. Just as he was about to close his eyes, he sensed a presence approaching. Feeling a familiar aura, he didn't do anything and just stood there.

"Yoo, finally left your house. I guess for a Sis-con like you, nothing else matters but your sister."

Ronan spoke with a smile as he put his hands around Nexus's shoulder. He had tried to call Nexus for a party before, but was declined, so he couldn't help but tease.

"I guess, after all, if there was a scale where one side was an infinite you and the other side my sister, I would choose my sister."

"Brooo, don't have to say such hurtful words, though if I had a sister as cute as yours, I may have done the same."

"Hmm.."

Hearing his words, Nexus turned his head and stared to stare at him in silence, feeling Nexus's stare, he couldn't help but run his head nervously. He hit a landmine, after all; Nexus is quite protective of his sister.

"Nothing, Nothing.."

Ronan deflected the subject with an awkward laugh. Hearing his words, Nexus stopped staring at him as he turned his attention toward the awakening room.

"So, Nexus, what rank do you think you will get?"

"First realm more than Fifth Order. What about you?"

"Hmm, Same as your prediction."

"Ohh, you seem to have found a great path."

"Yes.. I am quite suited for the Elemental type Path."

"Hmm, I am from a Body Cultivation type path."

After which, both of them changed the subject as they focused on minor things; they didn't ask each other about their path.
