Shira's body was trembling as its eyes shifted from side to side, I took two steps backward as I looked at the body and wondered what the hell was happening.There were zero life signs in the body, and I couldn't sense her soul either!Ludeus's soul had dissipated, so it couldn't be him either.I got over my cautiousness as I approached the body and tried to touch it. However, before I could do so, the body morphed into a small fiery egg that grew to the size of Shira's full body.The egg had strange patterns and dots on it that I have never seen before.They didn't represent any of the runes or aura that came from the Fire God's being.Previously, the bloodline aura that she had in her veins came from the Fire God.But now the bloodline in her was continuously changing, transforming.The egg continued to pulse as I narrowed my eyes.This feeling was certainly different, and I wasn't sure if Shira is going to be an ally or enemy if she came out of that egg.Ludeus didn't mention the s
Shira saw how I became silent, and she snorted:"Are you thinking about how I forgave you too easily?"It was surprising how she could see through my thoughts so easily, so I raised an eyebrow at her question and said:"What makes you say that?"She didn't respond to my question as flames burst around her body before she disappeared from my sight.I blocked the attack from the side as a flaming wing tried to strike my head.I pushed the wing backward as Shira's body appeared in front of my eyes once again.I looked at the arm that I used to block the flaming wing and analyzed the damage.Her strength wasn't very impressive, she was quickly pushed back by my retaliation, but her speed was the thing that was quite impressive.She could accelerate and move naturally through the spatial dimension, almost as if she were a fish in the water.I could feel that the arm I used to block her attack was numb and fire engulfed the skin as it ate through it like a cancerous cell.I tried to put the
We separated as Shira continued to pant. Her energy reserves were quickly recovering as her pale face regained some color, and she told me:"Don't think that I'm done with you! You might be stronger for now, but I will surpass you!"I shook my head slowly as I responded:"I don't particularly care about that, you can continue to be mad about what I did to you. You deserve that. my betrayal should have hurt you, and I don't deserve immediate forgiveness, but we need to focus on the problem at hand now, you know?"Shira made a 'hmph' sound and then looked away for a brief second before responding:"I know that, I want that revenge on my father more than you think, but I'm sure that we aren't truly ready to raid their Heavenly Realms yet, we need some training first!"I scratched the back of my head for a few seconds before I replied:"That could be true, I'm not sure about the full strength of the Fire God's avatar, Alliron and Aratas should be able to deal with the other four, but I'm
Shira and I looked at each other as I started to think about where could we train.We needed a place that was rich in energy and cut off from the rest of the world. A place where I could have enough quiet to delve into my bloodline to strengthen it and understand more about the inner workings that existed inside it.I knew that my path was getting harder and harder to ascend, even though I have gained the talent that I have been previously so envious of.The problem was that I simply couldn't eat people anymore and then endure the transformations of the devouring ability.Why? There wasn't anyone else strong enough to continue my bodily evolution!My soul had also reached the same level as my body, meaning that I also had to eat equal-level strength souls.Where could I find such strong people?I knew that I couldn't offend the powers with these types of people yet, I was in between being strong enough to become a faction of my own, and becoming a top player in one of those factions.
The appearance of this old being surprised me slightly, but if I thought a little bit more about it, there was no way that the world tree would let the top of the crown be protected only by a bloodline barrier as it still needed a guardian just as a precaution.The old green-haired elder looked down at me, waiting for my response:"I didn't talk with the world tree about this previously because she was going to sleep, but this location is the best training location for me, I'm going to fight the Fire God soon, and I need a good training location to strengthen my bloodline."The elder caressed his chin for a few seconds before he looked down at me, analyzing my bloodline as he said:"I'm not sure if I'm allowed to let you train here, I'm only the guardian of this area, and I only follow the will of the world tree."She said those with a serious expression on his face as he continued:"I will contact the world tree's awakened will and feel her emotions to see if she would allow you to t
The other half of the bloodline came from the third brother of the beginning.He was the ancestor of the Dark Elves, the most subservient race, being the blades of the Night Elves, aka subordinates.However, they could be considered higher ranked than the branch that Alliron created due to experimentation.The blood elves were quite tragic as the way they lived was considered taboo, and even though the elves weren't very affected by the influence of the gods, they still thought about the Blood Elves as being deviants that needed to be chased away.I wasn't sure how they were doing now that Ludeus had been destroyed, they must still be living in the hidden location of the humanized elves... I should give them a visit before the attack on the Fire God Heaven happens. Or could have Alliron meet up with them already?They were his descendants...I shook my head, it would be better just to focus on the things in front of me first.I peered into the other half of my bloodline as the techniq
Learning the Death From the Shadows technique wasn't troublesome. The technique required affinity towards darkness, but the bloodline had already given me that affinity to the maximum, so all I had to was understand the intricacies behind the technique to execute.Summoning the shadow soldiers was quite easy, all I had to do was imbue my energy into the surroundings and create shadowy beings that would follow my mental commands or even work on their own the more I summoned them.They would grow with experience and usage, making them a very valuable resource.The shadow soldiers also couldn't be destroyed unless some type of light energy was used on them.They could be dissipated, but they would retain their experiences and evolve accordingly. The only way to permanently destroy them was to use high-level Light energy that would be to the level of something like the sun.But I could just summon some new soldiers after that. However, they would be considered 'newbies', and they would ha
My eyebrows arched slightly as I looked at my downed friend and decided to ask her, maybe she would know something?I grabbed the Dark Elf Chief by the shoulder and hoisted her up before asking:"One year ago, around this time, a human elf that awakened their bloodline had been teleported to the forest above us, do you know anything about them?" The Dark Elf chief glared at me as she tried to get out of my grip, she seemed to have not learned her lesson yet, so I gave her a headbutt breaking her nose and asking again:"Do you know anything about that Humanized elf that teleported here?!"The Dark Elf chief covered her nose with both hands as she said:"I... I know something, please stop hitting me!"I know she was faking her reaction, she was still plotting against me.Maybe I should just go ahead and transform her into a slave using the soul-controlling technique...Seeing my eyes turn serious made the dark elf chief realize that something that she couldn't defend against would come
