Dorian ignored the alert for a moment as he raised one of his clawed arms to his head
‘Ausra, as that? When I entered htly’ He asked, raising the question He felt at his soul, feeling the cocoon that held Williaed
‘…based on the data I have, it is iive a perfect answer Your soul is abnorive lance down at the corpse of the Solar Rock Lizard The stinging pain in his wings began to fade as they slowly started to regenerate The wary he’d taken in fro in particular, speeding up the healing process
‘Your soul is abnormal’ Ausra repeated, and then continued, ‘When you enter your Condensed state, the power of your body greatly increases, as does the power of your soul This has allowed you to touch upon the doorstep of Lord Class’
‘However, you have yet to coh to officially enter Lord Class The process of coher Powerful enough to endurethe laws of the universe to for the strength of your body and soul Therefore, your soul has started to undergo its own hardening and solidification, separate from the normal process’
He blinked,
‘Do other Ano?’
‘No They were born with souls sealed aneashed clean fro innate Lord or King Class bloodlines The absolute perfect state of being for co the laws of the universe By now,of the laws of the universe, a process that, if they kept their previous hed It felt like he was constantly behind in terth when compared to the other er than hih power to survive on his own
‘Fine, whatever’ He shrugged It hat it was He would deal with it
Instead, he turned his focus to the bloodline origins of the lizard he’d just absorbed
‘Ulanced at one particular point, confused
‘Unidentified Energy &8211; Traces of Earth Elemental power? What is this, Ausra?’
‘Approximately 14 of the bloodline within the lizard is coy source laced with Earth Eleeneral, explain what thisin all possibilities, there is a 98 that this Solar Rock Lizard devoured a natural treasure similar to the Golden Apples you found, but one aspected for the Earth Element Because the lizard does not have a unique Soul Spell Matrix that is able to break down the fruit and transfer certain aspects of its energy, its body began to mutate’
‘This mutation allowed it to quickly reach the peak of the Grandmaster Class and step into the Pseudo-Lord Class However, as a result, its ressive, defensive of the natural treasure’s point of origin’
‘The natural treasure it found was probably related to the two Golden Apples you discovered When natural treasures form, usually three or four of theh concentration of the universal laws, though this process is not entirely understood’
"Huh&8221; He said aloud, looking down at the corpse of the creature He hadn’t realized it was so dangerous to eat a natural treasure raw Well, Ausra would have warned hiular creatures Still He shook the thoughts froy?’ He asked, curious
‘The energy has been absorbed in the forrowth The Earth Elemental traces, however, mostly dissipated at the creature’s death’ Ausra replied coolly
Dorian pulled up his Growth Status, checking on his nue: (4/4) Elder Giant Myyr Dragon &8211;
Growth Progress – 96,827/0
&8211;
‘Awesoy This entire expedition so far had net hiy, as well as the other Fire Eley was doing floating around his body
He grinned happily, dancing a little jig He was ress at that If he kept this up, he felt like it wouldn’t be long till he could travel freely and unrestrained
"Do Not Move&8221; Rathvento the rest of his men
After the cataclysm battle had ended and the dust had settled, Rathven and his Hunters had y explosions of the fight Several of them were injured, but all lay deathly still in terror, not daring to move
The Solar Rock Lizard had, unexpectedly, perished This was, alone, reason for rejoicing The creature was unreasonably aggressive, and its death meant that the Overbal Canyon would become a much safer place
The beast that had killed it, however, was that ferocious dragon Rathven had only ht, the dust storht the beast displayed was enough to convince him not to make a move
His Hell Lance lay sluround, the still recovering Aina kneeling next to hion stood in front of the down at the corpse of the black-scaled Solar Rock Lizard
Ruan tothe?!&8221; Harmen’s panicked voice echoed in Rathven’s ear as the Fate Wizard whispered loudly
"I…&8221; Rathven stared at it, at a loss for words
"Got the energyyy, got the bloooodlinnneeees&8221;
"Tiood tiiian walking towards Potor City, s cheerfully
Today’s o eat so a new bloodline while he slept
He took a few deep steps and spun around as he walked, throwing in a couple body rolls It had been a while since he got to dance, and today’s victory had set hie, Giant Myyr Dragon forht it would be His increased body control and strength made the -god It on This must be some evil ri-ritual&8221; Harmen’s voice shook with fear and despair as he looked at thein odd, peculiar e sounds en
"We’re all go-going to die&8221; Haran to cry quietly
"Sh-shattered Hea-Heavens above p-p-please sp-spare me from the v-vile h-hell you have thrown upon us&8221;
"Shut up!&8221; Rathven leaned over and s to knock some sense into him The innate barrier the Wizard had absorbed h to shock the Wizard
Unfortunately, the daht the attention of the green-scaled dragon
‘Oh?’ Dorian thought, pausing in his dancing as he looked off to the side
‘That’s right, those huroup of warriors and a few Wizards that had attacked hiround to his side, mostly in sharoup as a whole looked pretty sad
Dorian bared his teeth at them They had tried to attack him, after all That said, they did lead him to the Golden Apples, and the Solar Rock Lizard, so he couldn’t be too angry
He snorted and gave the on his way to Potor City, shaer draconic for them
"W-we are spared!&8221; Haron had gone out of eyesight The rest of the Hunter crew see their lives
Rathven wiped a sheen of sweat fro as he relaxed The tension and fear he’d experienced in the past fewHe’d never felt so helpless in his life
"Quiet&8221; Hethe Hunters to attention Several of the the We must report this to the Palace Master&8221;
Hours passed, and Dorian eventually found hi next to the side of the plateau that held Potor City, far above
He had returned to his hu he’d looped onto his draconic form His eyes were spirited as he looked at the crowd near hie mines were just a few dozen oods up and down the ic Platform rides up to Potor, only 25 silver roups!&8221;
"Custoe corpses, anywhere within 50 miles, only 30 silverpath to the top, the Minyo Carved Stone Path, only 1 silvercoroups of warriors that traveled out to hunt for rare beasts or ic herbs, and the ht was starting to di replaced by so above theness
Dorian could s set into the stone wall, built up along several stone pathways He saw restaurants, blacksmiths, and even a few small inns and many personal residences It seeerous recesses of the world, rather than the plateau above
He looked at the the Cloud in a Bottle artifact he’d purchased He activated it, drawing upon one of the san to rise up, floating above the people and shops below He saw a few curious eyes glance up at hi about their day
He fell through the air, passing the heavy h to the fading afternoon light of the world above
"Ahhh&8221; He took a deep breath The air below the fog layer was somewhat earthy, as if he was in a cave When he came up here, to the open world, the air had a fresh, natural scent
He nodded his head sharply as he flew all the way up the plateau, landing on the edge He saw a few people off to the side, just now starting to descend
He ignored the towards the city, ready to fill his stomach
‘So Ausra, when the other Flock-members absorb bloodlines, do they still transform like me?’ Dorian asked as he settled into his Inn bedroom
It was around an hour later He’d picked out and eaten an entire roast pig at one of the more well-known restaurants in the city, a place called the Roasted Spoon The delicious ood as they advertised It was served with a side of roasted potatoes and greens, and was the best food he’d eaten yet
After that, he’d decided to head back to his inn Toet the basic reading ic
‘Correct Though they have a main bloodline, their soul still needs to adapt to the new form It is only when they try to coh a slow process of assimilation’
‘Without a Soul Spell Matrix Genie likeneeded to successfully combine bloodlines like you do would be ih a natural process that adapts certain aspects into their own’ Ausra replied
Dorian frowned, rubbing his chin
‘Why wouldn’t the Godking give everyone a genie, then? Doesn’t he want to ure that would help’
‘It, technically, should be ito create or see, even on Angelic Class beings Anyone below the Angelic Class should experience a massive amount of pressure and have their soul dissipate’ Ausra continued,
‘Your soul is an abnorht explain why you still maintain your previous life’shis head He didn’t, actually, see, but he knew Ausra wouldn’t be able to explain even if he asked
‘Alright, well Let’s take a look at my bloodlines now Ausra pull up all the unused Grandy to spend, Dorian could afford to splurge, and add a powerful new creature to his repertoire

‘Hnation
‘The Pseudo-Lord Class is technically still designated as part of the Grandht It is more of a level between the Grandmaster and Lord Class’ Ausra answered his question without hi to ask it
Dorian looked over the list, his eyes glinting He either ith the Master Class Fire Eleic, or he ith one of these bloodlines to increase his strength
‘Which to choose…’ He
Many miles away froness, ending in a dismal, hundred etation Several long cracks ran through the top of this pillar, sunlight beating down on top of it
Upon this plateau, two figures could be seen
"It’s left the hole, Probus I’ll send word to Helena She’s near the World Bridge to Hasnorth&8221; A va black belt wrapped around him, spoke aloud, his voice calm and confident A wand could be seen strapped to this belt, in a sht He was currently looking down over the stone platforness below
"Good&8221; A black plate ar brown hair was tied up in a bun and blowing slightly as a breeze swept past thes for the taste of blood&8221; His eyes flashed, a dark,blade, adlance at the warrior askance,
"What? How can your sword long for the taste of blood? It’s just a sword&8221;
Probus looked up from his blade to stare at the Wizard as Trajan continued,
"Is your sword a vampire too, eh? You could call yourself the va to it&8221;
"It’s a lared at hiood, adrin
Probus returned back to looking at his sword lovingly as he hooked it onto his back He then began scanning the sky, as if looking for soured out Probus That’s what you get fo-&8221; Trajan cut hilared at his fellow vaht now, Probus?&8221;
"I’ainst Family La?&8221; The vampire warrior continued to look around the sky, his eyes darting to and fro
"…&8221;
"So you’re not looking for innocent local wildlife to slaughter?&8221; Trajan’s words contained a biting edge
Probus paused, his eyes wavering for a split second
"No, of course not&8221;
"Good because I-&8221; Trajan began,
"I would never kill anything innocent&8221; Probus continued, his eyes zeroing in on a distant black speck
"Yes, that is why I aske-&8221; Trajan responded,
"But if it was an evil, sli back and grasping firmly onto the hilt of his blade
"Of course that’s reasona-wait no! That isn’t nore, Master Class White Tailed Eagle fell from the sky, split into two
