Speaking of the Six Paths of the Mind, Kaizer had discussed something similar with the Dean last time he visited his mentor. He also shared his speculation that he did not feel limited to only three paths and had a slight affinity with the other three.
The Dean suggested that he continue to accumulate power and that rather than an issue with skill, it was an issue with foundation. His base psychic power was already stretched thin with telepathy, telekinesis, and telesthesia, so trying to add on more was not possible.
This inevitably meant that he would have to take down more people, and to that end, the Dean signed Kaizer up for another mission.
Dean Rochester placed a document on the desk, sliding it toward Kaizer with a gentle shift. The thick folder carried the scent of fresh ink and classified urgency, its pages filled with geopolitics, tactical briefings, and a contract with the Esper Commission.
Kaizer glanced at the cover, which bore the name Operation Iron Crescent.
