Her bloodline had been cold for a while now, there had been no battle, hence there was no need for the fire in her bloodline. But that changed when she saw what Soverick did while overcoming the ordeal that is the mountain range. She knew at that point that he must become her rival.
Her bloodline, the eternal battle royal bloodline like most bloodlines gave her two advantages in affinity. For the elemental advantage, she got the air element. So she had a god-level talent for the wind. Then there is the advantage of her divine ability. For her, it is the affinity of battle. God-level talent in wind is not anything special nowadays when every child with a pure awakened royal bloodline has one. What's special about her bloodline is the ability to grow more talented by defeating talented people. She grows stronger with every victory by stealing their talents.
There are some drawbacks and limitations to the ability. Her eyes has to identify the person but her eyes hadn't awakened yet, she is still in the vitality core stage. The second condition is that the person's talent must be greater than hers. Only then will she be able to designate that person as her rival. She will be able to steal that person's talent if she defeats the person until they have equal talents. The third drawback is that she mustn't lose to someone of lesser talents. It is a dangerous drawback but the momentum she builds up from her victories will make her more and more difficult to defeat.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ Her plan was to stay relatively low-key and muddle her way until she becomes a mana entity. Only then will her eyes awaken and she will be able to discern talented individuals. Then she will be able to lock on to them as a rival. But that all changed as she sat there watching Soverick acquire his spear form.
Her blood boiled and thundered with the need to acquire his talent. It was something beyond her comprehension and she must acquire it. Too bad that her eyes weren't awakened yet so she couldn't forcefully designate him as her rival. She needs him to acknowledge her as a worthy rival. Only then can she share in the bounty that is his talent. And she intends to achieve it either by hook or crook.
"He will have to take the bait one way or the other. Then he will fall to me." She said as she left to make her wishes come through.
She didn't bother to think about how easy it had been for Soverick to knock her out. He simply caught her unawares. She is confident of a victory against a spear novice as long as she is prepared.
If all else fails then she will stop repressing her refinement and break through to the mana entity stage. She might have to drop out of school for that, but she will do anything to acquire Soverick's talent. She will be able to lock on to him and then fight him then. Her bloodline did not have any restriction for strength level, so she might be way stronger than him but she will still be able to steal his talent.
"He might be proud now but that will change when I defeat him. That hubris that his talents gave him might be justified but I'll rend it all down. He is nothing but my prey." She swore quietly and clenched her fist in anticipation.
She will have him no matter how it all plays out. She will tear a huge chunk of his genius and improve hers with it.
Meanwhile in the New Training World.
"I don't know what happened to her. She used to be the most reserved of my students. But something about you roused her fighting spirit. I have never seen such fervor in her even in training. She always had an aura of calmness about her but that has changed all of a sudden." SQUARESKULL said when the door closed behind them.
Soverick didn't say anything. He didn't have anything to say about SLEEP DEPRIVED DEMON apart from the fact that he felt a slight wariness toward her.
It had changed his evaluation of her from a nuisance into a nuisance that he must get rid of. He has resolved himself to get rid of her regardless of whose child she is, as soon as he sensed anything off about her. He had his guard up only slightly because she wasn't a threat. He just felt that there was something iffy about her. But she ultimately wasn't a threat so he put her out of his mind and chose to focus on something else.
He looked around the training room. It resembled his former one in that it was like being inside a nondescript silver box.
SQUARESKULL waved his hand and some beasts appeared. They were herbivores with trademark horns that indicated them as brittle rams. The Rams aren't brittle but their horns make whatever they hit become brittle. Their horns are made up of a special material that transmits a vibrational force into things that they come into contact with. The vibrational force increases the higher the impact of a collision. The vibrational force is capable of bypassing most defenses and causing internal damage, hence their name, brittle rams.
"You will fight these beasts. Their attack pattern is pretty simple. They will try to ram you and you mustn't let their horns hit you. So you avoid them. But the array will deprive you of your sight, hearing, and divine sense. They also won't release the faintest battle lust or killing intent. So You will have to Intuit their attacks and evade them. Successful attacks on the brittle rams will reduce their capabilities until they are eliminated when they take too much damage. Any questions?" SQUARESKULL asked.
Soverick replied. "No questions."
It was a simple test and he didn't see any sort of complications about it. He is to kill the brittle rams while he is blind and deaf.
