<You have accumulated a thousand drops of Vampire Lord Origin Blood>

<You have reached the Everlasting Blood Refining Art's Third Stage of Reparation>

<Your Divine-rank Regeneration has been strengthened>

<Your Divine-rank Regeneration has synergized with your Everlasting Blood Refining Art and upgraded its recovery effects to the Fourth Stage of Regrowth>

<Your Everlasting Blood Refining Art's blood power has also reached Early-stage Demigod rank>

<Note: Assimilating 899 other types of origin blood will bring out the full potential of the Third Stage of Reparation>

...

On the other hand, the Everlasting Blood Refining Art's Third Stage of Reparation allowed his inner organs to recover from any damage, but at the speed of Divine-rank Regeneration.

However, since it had been further boosted to the Fourth Stage of Regrowth, Vaan could recover from the destruction of his organs or missing limbs completely.

In other words, he could no longer be fatally wounded or physically crippled so long as his blood energy persisted in restoring all damages and destruction to his body.

As long as there was a constant feed of blood energy, he could be considered an inexhaustible killing machine on the battlefield.

=====

After awakening the Divine-rank Vampire Bloodline, Vaan experienced an explosive improvement in his overall physical capabilities. In his Celestial Dragonwolf Transformation state, his power actually reached the level of a Half-step Divine Being.

However, it was also clear that his Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline could not keep up with his physical growth.

The offensive and defensive power of his claws and scales were left far behind. Nevertheless, this was to be expected since his Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline no longer monopolized his body but co-existed with his Vampire Bloodline.

In return, he gained another form to turn into.

Unfortunately, [Vampiric Transformation] was nothing special compared to [Celestial Dragonwolf Transformation]. As such, it wasn't worth mentioning. After all, all its bonuses were inferior.

That said, although Vaan wouldn't use [Vampiric Transformation] in battle, he could at least use it when he needed to prove he possessed a high-ranking vampire bloodline. Nevertheless, if Vaan wanted to make the best use of both his bloodlines, he would have to fuse them and create a stronger bloodline.

However, the Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline was already considered a miracle bloodline. Vaan wasn't sure if he could create a stronger bloodline by fusing the Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline and his Divine-rank Vampire Bloodline. There was even a high risk of failure.

After all, while they were both Divine-rank bloodlines, the Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline was unique and far from reaching its full potential. On the other hand, the Divine-rank Vampire Bloodline was already at its limit.

As such, fusing the two was unlikely to promote a stronger bloodline. In fact, the Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline might degrade as a result of it.

'It seems I need to find a suitable bloodline to fuse with the Divine-rank Vampire Bloodline and create another unique bloodline first. Only then should I consider fusing it with the Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline,' Vaan contemplated.

Nevertheless, that was an objective for another time.

After absorbing so many drops of divine blood, Vaan could feel his comprehension of the

Blood Law nearing the Divine rank.

It was only a matter of time before the lock on Valefor's memories was unsealed.

As such, Vaan continued to press forward.

Ding!

<You have gained insights into the Blood Law>

<Your understanding of the Blood Law has reached 10%>

...

The moment Vaan's comprehension of the Blood Law reached the Divine rank, the blood-red star in his sea of consciousness immediately engulfed half of his sea of consciousness in its

gloomy crimson light.

Countless information was poured into Vaan's mind as his lost memories were returned to

him.

Blackmoon City, Slum District

Inside a dilapidated house, a maidservant paced back and forth anxiously while holding a crying newborn in her arms. Despite her efforts to calm the three-month-old baby, it

continued to cry.

Suddenly, the broken door was pushed before a beautiful woman clad in black rushed in.

Her abrupt appearance prompted the maidservant to turn to look with alarm. However, upon recognizing the beautiful black-robed woman, her expression quickly turned to pleasant

surprise.

"My Lady! Thank goodness you're finally back!" the maidservant rejoiced before quickly asking, "Why did we move out of our principal home? Why do we have to hide in this shabby place? What exactly is going on?"

"I don't have a lot of time to explain, so listen carefully, Summer," Vivienne Caelestis stated as she took her baby son from the maidservant's arms.

She rocked her crying baby with one arm in an attempt to calm him while placing a stone necklace around his neck with the other.

At the same time, she explained to her maidservant, "I don't know who or what, but some

people or forces have been hunting down all the surviving participants from the expedition."

"As such, it's no longer safe to stay in our principal home. However, it isn't safe to flee back to the main family. The roads are all being watched. Even if we manage to flee the city, we will be bringing disaster back to the main family."

"This current crisis is definitely bigger than what the Caelestis Household can handle. That's why hiding in the slums is the safest option for you two," Vivienne explained.

"You two...? What about you, my Lady?" Summer asked with astonishment.

"I can't stay with you two. My face has already been seen by many. Staying with you two will

only endanger your lives as well," Vivienne stated before instructing Summer, "I'm

entrusting my son in your care. Please look after him."

Shortly after, Vivienne handed a storage bag containing countless mana stones and necessities to her maidservant.

Summer was quickly stunned by the abrupt news.

She realized her Lady would leave and become bait to guarantee their safety. Although she wanted to advise her Lady against such a decision, she was also fearful of losing her life.

As such, she could only stand frozen on the spot. Meanwhile, Vivienne looked at her baby son with motherly love and endless reluctance. She didn't want to leave him behind, but she also knew it was the best way to guarantee his safety.

"I'm sorry I brought you into this world and failed to uphold my motherly responsibilities, Little One. However, know that I will always love you and wish you the best life has to offer, no matter where I am in this world or the next. May this stone necklace carry my wish and protect you well in my stead," Vivienne softly said to her son.

"My Lady, that sounds too ominous. It almost sounds like you believe you won't be able to survive through this crisis..." Summer mentioned anxiously.

"We can only assume the worst and prepare for it, Summer," Vivienne shook her head, reluctantly handing her son back to her maidservant. Then, she said, "I will secretly send you news every seven days."

"If you haven't heard from me for more than two weeks, assume that I am dead and look after yourself, Summer. Take care now. I've already overstayed my visit," Vivienne stated. Shortly after, she put on her hood and disappeared into the night. It was unknown where she

was headed.

--

Nevertheless, Summer dutifully looked after Vivienne's baby son while anxiously looking

forward to her news every seven days.

However, on the seventh day, Vivienne's news never came.

From then on, Summer knew they were on their own. Her Lady left her son in her care and

disappeared from the world.

Considering how famous her Lady had been, there must have been quite a few people who had

seen her serving her Lady as well.

As such, what will happen to her?

Although her Lady told her the unknown people or forces were hunting people who had

participated in the expedition, would they also look for people associated with them?

After all, why were they hunting everyone who participated in the expedition? They had to be looking for something, right?

Suddenly, Summer glanced down at the stone necklace hanging around the baby's neck. She immediately took it off the baby to study it.

However, she failed to find anything special about it.

"Isn't this just an ordinary dried-up mana stone? This is practically garbage..." Summer

frowned with doubt.

At the same time, her heart felt cold.

If her Lady truly loved her son, shouldn't she have left something valuable to protect him?

Why would she turn a useless stone into a necklace and leave it to her son?

'Did my Lady abandon us...?' Summer couldn't help but think.

The days of living in uncertainty and fear were slowly wearing down on her mind. She couldn't

help but think negatively.

The baby's constant crying didn't make it any better for her situation here. Nevertheless, Summer managed to tolerate everything for six months before the dwindling

necessities and wealth in the storage bag twisted her mind.

"Wehh..."

A baby's loud, irritating cry suddenly broke the temporary silence within the dilapidated

house.

Summer's expression quickly darkened.

"Look at you, always crying and not having a single clue about the situation around you. It

must be nice to live in ignorance. Can't you stop crying for once? Your mother has already

abandoned us. Do I still have a reason to take care of you, you little shit?" Summer spouted gloomily.
