"What do you mean by using the broken runes to find the rules in the world?" Some of the words used by Anna just went over my head. 

"You will understand once you form your Ego Gem? Now all you need to know is that depending on broken runes is bad and can lead to disastrous consequences." It seems I need to practically experience the Ego Gem formation and rule comprehension to understand the theoretical knowledge that Anna just unloaded on me. 

"Can you teach me how to form Ego Gem? So I can experience what we just talked about?" Right now I had so many other questions about Ego Gem, Monster Core and the Viltronian Core. Whether all three are the same or not? I could not get an answer for this from Anna as she doesn't know about Viltronian Cores and I did not plan on revealing it to her. I can only rely on myself to uncover the secrets behind these three cores. To achieve that first I would have to learn how to form an Ego Gem. Only by doing that will I know what is the difference between Ego Gem and Viltronian Cores that I have been creating. And how do they relate to Monster core? 

"My dear student up till now Miss Anna's classes were free but now they are going to cost you. I can teach you how to form an Ego Gem from scratch but how are planning to pay for the Classes. Kind reminder Miss Anna is open to all forms of payment if know what I mean?" Informed Anna as she leaned forward emphasising her full chest. 

"What? You said Ego Gem is formed by solidifying the spirit/ego of our soul right, how hard can it be?" I decided to try forming an Ego Gem without Anna's guidance but soon I realised, "where do you find the spirit/ego of your soul? And how do you solidify it?" 

"I thought you were going to do it by yourself, go ahead I wouldn't disturb you." Anna ignored my plea, "If forming an Ego Gem was so easy why would people try so hard to enter the top 10 universities. They could just from their Ego Gem at their homes with the help of a forum or watching a video online, you dumbass."

"Okay, I am sorry. Miss Anna, please teach me." Realising the foolishness in my action I apologised to Anna for my cockiness earlier. 

"You are forgetting something, Mister. Pay up upfront no loans allowed." Satisfied with my apology Anna asked me to pay the cost of her guidance upfront. 

"Anna, be reasonable. What can a humble orphan like me have that could make up for the guidance of the great southern emperor? Please be generous this once and help this poor orphan boy, will you." Call me shameless, if it helps me get what I want I do not mind using the orphan card. 

"Hehe, you have a sweet mouth on you but it's not going to work today neither is the orphan card. If you want to learn how to form an Ego Gem then I except an appropriate compensation or else finish your pizza and get out of here." Anna did not fall for the flattery or the orphan card, she stood her ground ruthlessly. 

"Okay, fine. What does the great southern emperor want from this poor helpless orphan boy?" I choose to stick to my act still the end. 

"Do not play the victim here. This is a fair exchange. Do you know how many people will pay a limb, kidney for my guidance? Count yourself lucky that this Emperor finds you cute." Smuck Anna let out a villainous laugh. 

"Yes, emperor. Your concubine knows he is wrong." I said that in the heat of the moment but soon regretted it. 

"Come here, let this emperor taste those plump red lips of yours." Anna vanished from her couch and pounced on her defenceless prey. 

"What the... *moan*" before I could react Anna was on top of me pressing me against the couch. As I tried to respond to her lustful actions she fiercely bit on my lower lip and sucked on it. I could not help but let out a moan in pleasure… pain. I tried pushing her off me but my strength was nowhere enough to counter a preying emperor. 

"Soft and subtle with a hint of sweetness, just the way I like it." Satisfied Anna got off me and returns to her couch. 

"You.. *ah*." My lower lip was swollen it hurt as I tried to curse at Anna for her actions. Before I could complain about the swelling my Viltronian physique healed it. 

"You lady hoodlum, I will file a sexual harassment case against you." Have regained my ability to speak normally I threatened Anna with a verbal sexual harassment lawsuit. 

"Sexual harassment lawsuit, sure file it but where? Go ahead do as you please. But don't act innocent, I heard your pleasure-filled moan. It felt great, didn't it? There is more where it came from all you have to do is just ask for it." Anna did not take my threat of suing her seriously. She was the freaking southern emperor who dared to question her. 

"It wasn't, that moan was out of pain you savage. Now that you got what you want, teach me how to form an Ego Gem." There is no point in fighting over the spilt milk, I will get her back for that later but right now I had to learn how to form an Ego Gem. Let's not forget what's important here. As long as I gain info on how to form the Ego Gem it is my win. Except for Anna, there are only two places left that I know of where I can learn about Ego Gem formation, the first is top 10 universities and then Corey. Getting into the top 10 universities was a long process and as for Corey, she would definitely ask Susan in exchange. 

I just realised that I cannot take the upcoming duel with Corey lightly. The way she knew about the uses of the card emperor's head it is clear that she had an Ego Gem and has a proper command over the power of rules. Not to mention the Ego fire that she displayed earlier, was it a rune. 

How strong has she gotten in just 2 days? Fuqing cheat! Her origin card is a cheat. Now that I think about it, what was the identity of Corey in her past life? Where is her past self from, this world or a different world? Seeing how she knows about Ego Gem, Broken runes and the way she remained unfazed after knowing Anna and Lorenzo's identity. she should have had a high status in her past life.
