Chapter 47: Higher Starting Point
"That isn't a bad idea master, your power will shoot through the roof if you are a blood demon before your first ascension, but the problem with carrying this out is the availability of resources, I don't think it is possible for you to meet the requirements." Kate tentatively said carefully placing her words so Blake didn't misunderstand her.
"And what will these Requirements be" Blake asked.
Blake had come across the demon imp and demon fiend bloodline whilst scrolling through the shop and though with his current Sin points, they were all within or not too far from his means of acquiring, the thing was that Blake wanted power and following the system's advice he wished to be as strong as he could be before his first ascension.
Blake wanted to become a ranked being with a way higher starting point and though he had simply been asking Kate about her blood magic because he was considering if it had a future with the woman, now that he had heard of the blood demon, remembering Kate's blood abilities, he was very interested.
"Well first the demon blood essence you will need will have to be at least 70% purity to take you to the level of a blood demon, though if you already have the blood essence of an actual blood demon 30-40% purity will do," Kate said throwing Blake a side glance which said that the woman doubted he had any of these two alternate requirements.
"Next, if you aren't using a blood demon's essence but the essence of a normal demon you will need to actually have already had an inborn ability for blood manipulation so that your body can handle the blood essence I will channel into you during the transformation ritual.
Also, in relation to what I just said earlier, about channelling blood essence into you, what I was referring to is the blood essence of other people, so to put it simply, you will need to find a horde of around 500 people and massacre them during the evolution ritual so that their blood essence can be extracted and channelled into you
It goes without saying that for you to be able to absorb both the blood essence of the demon and that of the people, you will need to have a strong will to conquer the corruption that will come during the process.
Then have I mentioned to you the high mana cost for this, you will need tons of evil low-grade mana crystals, high evil-grade mana crystals will be best but low-level ones will do."
Hearing all these, Blake was just about to speak about how he had all the requirements when Kate out of nowhere continued speaking, her words entering the materials for the rune that will be made for the ritual and how she already had some things.
"Hihihi, don't be angry at her master, after her love for power and fire, Mistress loves studying runes and is quite passionate about it, "Thalia said whispering into Blake's ear and from there beginning to lick his earlobes.
Not minding Thalia's actions, Blake idly listened to Kate's words impressed by her deep knowledge even though at this point he could barely understand the theories she was spitting out, but then for some seconds she came back to speaking understandable words and what Blake got from her speech had him focusing on her once more with a grin.
"You know it's a shame master, I also love runes and in addition to having researched and recreated one that allows for the transformation to a blood demon by channelling the blood essence of others, there is also another that channels not just blood essence but also the souls of the people who would be sacrifice.
Though I wasn't able to get the name of the demon evolved from this process, I can only imagine the kind of power a being made of not just blood but blood and soul would possess.
It's a shame though, the amount of willpower needed to withstand the attacks and corruption that the souls will inflict is flat-out unreasonable, I mean your mental strength and willpower will have to be on the level of god's and then your soul..."
"Can you carry out that ritual" Blake suddenly said cutting off Kate and bringing her back from her frenzy."
"Which ritual' the woman asked a little bit lost.
"The one which involves channelling both blood essence and soul" Blake replied, the glint in his eyes telling Kate all she needed to know about his intentions.
"That is just straight-up suicidal" Thalia who had been getting touchy with Blake said out of the blue and Kate continued.
"Trying to absorb both the blood essence and the souls at the same time will be like you having all those humans in their full forms stabbing you while you are bound to the ground unable to retaliate or defend yourself the sheer amount of pain and agony you will go through trying to maintain your sense of being within the chaos will make you feel like you are in hell itself.
The pain will break you and by the time the ritual ends you will either have been devoured by the countless souls or whatever is left of you will be a mindless being."
"Now you make it sound like hell is such a bad place" Blake said with a chuckle, Kate's warnings going over his head as he began his search for the basic demon imp bloodline while making a confirmation.
"System what is the purity of the bloodlines offered to me at the shop."
"They are all 100% pure, assured to give you a complete transformation into your desired bloodline though the hist will be delighted to know the system will always protect your basic core as a human.."
.........
Within Minutes of the sun's departure, three people riding on horses appeared at the gates of Caramel town, their figures made invisible by the figure in the middle who didn't want to deal with the attention that would fall on him were his presence to be known.
Considering that adventurers usually spent days in a dungeon, the villagers were still calm and going about their activities as usual, having no fear that the adventurer team that had gone to eradicate the dungeon would fail after all they had a knight of the sun god.
Looking at the various people moving about, Blake's eyes falling on the women, he licked his lips as he thought about both the pleasure, he was going to feel from ramming his cock into their holes and the notifications of sin points he would be getting
"Master where do I go from here" the timid voice of Yula sounded. the woman having taken to calling Blake master when she had woken up to Kate and Thalia doing the same.
Of the entire adventurer team that had entered the dungeon, Kate, Thalia, Blake and Noel were the only ones who had survived.
Blake had ordered Thalia and Kate to heal Noel earlier and at current Noel was at the dungeon being looked after by Thalia who was very much displeased at the fact that she couldn't leave with the group since she was stuck to the dungeon.
