The black bloodline reminded him of Aezel and the demons that were with her when she invaded Sorba Port City years ago. It was ominous and carried with it a faint hint of evil.

Lawrend's memories rapidly flowed backward in time as he retraced the black bloodline to one special event. At that time, Aezel was having trouble increasing her level. She asked him for help, and he did so using a special method.

Lawrend hadn't thought about it before, but now that he was more knowledgeable, he realized that he had made a mistake. He shouldn't have transfused his blood with her.

She had the bloodline of the demons, and he had the bloodline of the Ignis. The two naturally didn't like each other. To be fair, he didn't know he had the Ignis bloodline during that time.

"How do I discard this?"

Lawrend was worried. He didn't want the demon bloodline, but it had already infiltrated every inch of his body and soul. The long years it had stayed inside of him gave it the time to slowly root itself inside of him.

Particularly since he used the Darkness Magic in his soul, which the demon bloodline attached to. The only way to remove this bloodline would be to renew his darkness magic.

But doing so would mean restarting from the start with all of his other elements. After all, the balance between the elements within his soul must be maintained.

As Lawrend thought of a way to evade this crisis, the demon bloodline grew more powerful. For some reason, it increased in power without any fuel source besides the darkness mana in his soul.

Compared to the fire magic and his Ignis bloodline, it shouldn't be able to fight back against it. It was like a firefly trying to fight against a powerful fire.

Very quickly, the demon bloodline crept into a quarter of his body. It spread black tendrils that looked eerie from an outsider's perspective. It was similar to the spell Aleshia used to turn someone into a mushroom back then.

The pain slowly increased in intensity. It was already absurdly painful where there were no words to describe what he was feeling. It could only be approximated by getting stabbed with a trillion needles at the same time at every part of your body.

"Oh, f*ck…"

Lawrend slowly lost the ability to think clearly the longer the two bloodlines fought. He fell forward from his straight posture while sitting on the giant red crystal and held himself up with his palm.

"Master!" Valentina exclaimed and burst out with great power.

She resisted Lawrend's weakening soul and escaped his body.

The pressure and the pure liquid fire mana immediately tried to destroy her soul. Valentina positioned her right palm sideways and touched the tip of her finger to her nose. Thick vines grew out of her soul's skin and wrapped around her body.

She created a seed-like shell that resisted the pressure and the pure liquid fire mana. This gave her a chance to focus on Lawrend's body.

"What!?"

Valentina shuddered in fear. Lawrend's current appearance could only be described as horrendous.

The left half of his face was bright red like a flame, while the right half was covered with black tendrils, making him look sickly. He was clearly not in the best shape.

"Bloodlines!"

Valentina had lived for a long time and delved into the studies of bloodlines before. She recognized the two powers conflicting over control of Lawrend's body.

"Master… I… I hope you will avenge me!"

Valentina didn't hesitate any longer as time was precious. The longer she allowed Lawrend to suffer, the greater the chance that he would die.

Valentina dove in the middle of his face and separated the two bloodline powers from conflicting with each other. She used her plant magic to create a zone that combined the two bloodlines together.

"Ah…"

The pain sucked Valentina's thoughts out of her. She used all of her soul to make the two bloodlines compatible with each other. With fire magic serving as destruction, and darkness magic serving as the end, she used her plant magic to create a place of life in the middle.

Valentina's soul was purely made of plant mana. If there was plant mana in the surroundings, she might be able to barely survive, but Valentina knew that she wouldn't the moment she didn't hesitate to save Lawrend.

She used all of her plant mana and all of her soul with it to give Lawrend a chance at life.

A dual-bloodline had never been heard before. It was a topic Valentina had tried to delve into in the past, but it was filled with failures.

Happiness, Bliss, Sadness, Freedom, and Relief were all mixed together as Valentina experienced her last moment. She gave Lawrend's pained soul one last kiss before fading away…

"Where am I?"

Lawrend regained consciousness and stared at a vast desolate world in front of him. A towering tree was faintly visible over the horizon.

"This is… my world?"

Lawrend recognized where he was as none other than the planet in his planetary system. The wind blew over his head, and a small leaf landed on top of his head.

Lawrend took it, and a flood of emotions filled his heart and soul. He remembered everything that happened before Valentina sacrificed herself. It also included a familiar warmth that Lawrend was used to always being by his side.

"Valentina…"

Lawrend fell to his knees. After so long of never kneeling before anyone, he couldn't control his knees. He surrendered to the world. It had taken Valentina away from him.

Before Lawrend realized it, tears started splatting on the rocky ground under him. He grasped at a teardrop and stared at his wet fingers in a daze.

"Valentina!! WHY!!! IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO END UP LIKE THIS!!"

Lawrend screamed as much as he could. No one could hear his anger except the dead world around him.
