BXBX NOVEL Chapter 46: Blood Demon
"No," Both women said at the same time,
"We don't even have a future amongst the top 20" Thalia added nonchalantly.
"Vampires top them" Kate said and Blake could only blink in total confusion.
"On our own, other than in the Astral veil, a fairy's powers are severely weakened, about 90%, our strength is only able to be expressed when we bond with our master and even then, there are other factors which I was not informed about that limit our strength.
The thing is that while all fairies are actually born in the astral veil, except the king and queen, they are all always sent out to the physical world to find a master or mistress and this is in a way the curse of the fairies, we are born to bond with a master and serve."
"What if you don't want to serve."
"You live for 1000 years and die."
"Well, how old are you."
"About 27 years, unlike other fairies, dungeon fairies are assigned a dungeon very early in their lives and then sent out.
It's an unfortunate thing as the other fairies always get to spend hundreds of years in the veil and by the time they come out, they are walking encyclopedias of methods to take their masters to greatness" Kate sadly said her
"Well, they are not like me, as long as this dungeon exists, I am immortal," Thalia said with a bright smile and puffed chest.
Hearing all these, Blake who had an opportunity to actually have the ability to walk into the veil himself couldn't help but gulp.
"Thalia, how long until you unlock this ethereal drift."
"When the dungeon reaches Tier 10"
"What level is it now" Blake asked sceptically.
"Tier 0"
"And how long will it take to reach Tier 10"
"About 4000 years if we are going our hardest," Thalia said with a shrug like such a number of years were little, Kate whose breasts were awakening his dragon not even showing any reaction to that.
"I select Ethereal drift," Blake told the System deciding not to put much thought into the long wait considering the illustrious hype around it, and then with that, he moved over to Kate's profile.

[Reminder to the host that after fucking Kate Bloodworth under the full moon, he now has a chance to select and own one of her abilities.]
Reading the information displayed by the system, Blake looked away from the screen in front of him and stared at Kate and then he looked back at the system, Blake did this a few times gaining both Thalia's and Kate's attention and then with a sigh he muttered out.
"I really need to become a first-order being," Blake muttered.
"So you're truly unranked," Kate asked and not even looking at her Blake replied.
"Yes"
"Urghh damn it, it means calling Grommash was a waste," Kate muttered and slowly Blake's eyes moved to Kate as he reasoned some things.
"You mean Grommash is stronger than you,"
"Yes, with me thinking you were a Knight, I feared a battle between the two of us would end with me either losing or possibly winning at the cost of killing you, and so since I needed you alive, I got Grommash to weaken you for me.
Then again you have that freaky power, going against you from the beginning was a mistake."
Letting out a sigh and how much his life had been on the edge, hanging on a lie, Blake took the conversation back to a topic that benefited him
"Of all the bloodlines you have come across, which do two of you think is the best." Blake suddenly asked.
Remembering the system's advice, Blake knew he had to get a bloodline before making his first ascension, but the thing now was that he didn't know which of the many bloodlines to select.
Sure, there were some with cool and attractive abilities that interested him, but what about their evolutions, the system had warned him about how his first bloodline evolution would affect his evolution path and taking a lesson from his negligence of his vitality point which nearly cost him his life and his most recent findings about the ethereal drift, Blake decided that a bit of council on his next bloodline wasn't a bad idea.
"Royal fairy" Thalia quickly said and not even thinking twice Blake ignored her, remembering how just the normal fairy bloodline had carried a tag price close to a million, one could only imagine what the price of a royal fairy bloodline was if he could even find it.
"Angel" Kate said after some thoughts and though Blake figured there was a chance she was right, he had come across the price of an angel bloodline and without much thought, it was ruled out.
"Surely by now you should have noticed I'm not exactly the definition of purity, I lean more on the sinful side give me something from the depths of hell," Blake said with a bit of annoyance, but at this point, he had already given up as he figured whatever Kate would call would be some high-level bloodline with a hefty price tag.
"Your blood magic ability, how far can you take it in future" Blake asked.
"Though I have a good talent in blood-related skills, I don't plan on continuing on that path, with my next ascension I would be moving towards pyrokinesis" Kate said and then when Balke nodded with a frown Kate spoke.
"Master, are you looking to take on a bloodline before you ascend."
"Yes," Blake said, reminding himself that Kate was an apparently scholarly woman who had lived for more than a hundred years.
"Well in that case, why not go for the demon bloodline, it is the one bloodline I truly envy and wish I was a part of.
Just like how the human bloodline is hailed for being the one which can always easily assimilate with other bloodlines allowing for humans to be able to become proper demi beings of any species, the demon bloodline carries that same prestige amongst the evil creatures.
You can become a demon imp for your first evolution and then a demon fiend in your next evolution, then when you wish to become a third-order being, you can try to become a blood demon."
Kate's words caught Blake's attention but then he had a thought and said it out loud.
"Why don't I just become a blood demon before my first ascension."
