Will of chaos

"Looks like you won the Basilisk with great ease."  (Carlos)

I was in Carlos' office, I was brought here by a Guild receptionist when I came to complete the Basilisk missions.

I walk to a nearby chair and sit down before answering him.

"It wasn't so easy, I had to fight together with my group and we spent all our strength for it."  (I)

"But how do you know that?"  (I)

"Mari told me that you took missions concerning Basilisk, not to mention Diana had taken my storage item before."  (Carlos)

"I also saw you and your group entering the city while I was talking to Roger over the walls."  (Carlos)

"You could have come to talk to us then."  (I)

"I was sorting out some business, but why did it take you so long to get back here at the Guild?"  (Carlos)

"I went home to get something to eat and asked someone in my group to dismantle the Basilisk for me."  (I)

"Are you trying to increase the value of items already selling to the Guild with separate materials?"  (Carlos)

"This might not have been a good idea, it takes someone very skillful, strong, and with special tools to dismantle a Grade S monster, especially a unique monster like this Basilisk."  (Carlos)

"Don't worry, the Basilisk materials are in excellent condition, everything is already sorted."  (I)

"..." (Carlos)

Carlos looks at me in surprise and with a confused face, he even drops some of his beer.

"You said you've already sorted everything out? Is the Basilisk completely dismantled?"  (Carlos)

"Yea."  (I)

"But it must have been only twelve or thirteen hours since you guys got back, right?"  (Carlos)

"How many people did this?"  (Carlos)

"It was just two people and it only took ten hours."  (I)

"Did you say ten o'clock?"  (Carlos)

"Yea."  (I)

"..." (Carlos)

Carlos is silent for a few minutes, it was at this point that I realized that Freya and Caryna were much better than I imagined, suddenly Carlos' eyes sparkled as he looked at me.

"Who are these two people? Would you mind if I hire these two people?"  (Carlos)

"Usually it takes a team of five people and it takes almost fifteen hours to dismantle a Basilisk like this, if these two people you talked about worked for the Guild, our job would be much faster."  (Carlos)

"Give up Carlos, you won't steal from my group."  (I)

"Don't say that, it would be so much easier to have people with that talent working here."  (Carlos)

"I also have to say that I'm not going to sell all the materials, I'm going to keep most of them."  (I)

"Want to try to sell directly to a merchant to make a bigger profit?"  (Carlos)

"Actually there are some people that are in my group who have works focused on the creation, I let them get all the materials they want before coming here."  (I)

"So you want to use these materials to make items or weapons before selling them for an even bigger profit? But then you'll have to split the profit with them which will lower your final profit, not to mention that it may take a while before those items are ready. "  (Carlos)

"Many adventurers think they can make more money like this, but it's not that easy, it takes longer to see the money, you need trust between the adventurer and the person with the creative work, not to mention the problems when sharing the profits ."  (Carlos)

"This sort of thing lasts for a short time."  (Carlos)

"No need to worry, these problems you talked about don't count for me, my group and I have our own way of doing things."  (I)

"I hope everything works out for you then."  (Carlos)

After this pleasant conversation with Carlos his wife arrived, when Mari arrived I left the missions, the materials for completing the missions, and some materials left over from Basilisk with her, while she left to take care of these things and get my rewards I kept talking with Carlos.

"Now that you've faced the Basilisk, you know you can fight a Grade S monster, not to mention you were pretty quick during the battle."  (Carlos)

"For most adventurers fighting this Basilisk lasts an hour or two being fast, that's because this Basilisk's body is very resistant and its reflexes are very fast."  (Carlos)

"You have no more reason to deny the request I made, do you?"  (Carlos)

"You're right, I will accept your request to clean the Dungeon of the Undead."  (I)

"Hahahaha..." (Carlos)

"That's what I wanted to hear, with that the last of the problems will be solved."  (Carlos)

"You sound like you know we're going to make it, but don't get too excited, you know fighting Basilisk is completely different with the mysterious boss of the Undead Dungeon."  (I)

"I must admit you're right, we don't have any information about this boss or the terrain he's on, so it will be harder to prepare against him."  (Carlos)

"That's my concern."  (I)

"I can help you by giving the maps we have of all the floors of the Undead Dungeon that have been explored so far, I can also take someone from your group to the safe room on the lowest floor I've preached before stopping."  (Carlos)

"I'll accept the maps, but I don't want your help getting deeper into the dungeon."  (I)

"I'll start from the first floor, so my group and I will have more experience fighting Undead, this will be very useful when facing the boss of that dungeon."  (I)

"Nice words, that's how a true adventurer should think."  (Carlos)

"Agreed, as expected from someone Diana respects so much, keep it up and you'll get over that head of muscle soon."  (Mari)

While talking to Carlos about accepting his request to clean the Dungeon of the Undead, his wife Mari returned with a bag and the Guild cards of mine and my group that she throws to me.

"That's your reward, there's also the money for the materials you wanted to sell."  (Mari)

"As the materials were separated and in a very well maintained state with excellent conditions, I decided to add an extra to your payment for the quantity."  (Mari)

"Thank you very much."  (I)

After getting the rewards and payment I was ready to leave, but Carlos pulls out a storage crystal and throws it at me.

​ "This storage crystal has all the Undead Dungeon maps we currently have, it also has details about the monsters, traps, and terrain on each floor."  (Carlos)

"Thanks, I'll make good use of it."  (I)

"When you decide to go to the Dungeon of the Undead, come here and take the special mission, you just need to talk to me or Mari for that."  (Carlos)

"I hope it doesn't take too long, that dungeon is a big nuisance."  (Mari)

"I'll talk it over with the others, maybe enter the Dungeon tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."  (I)

After that I said goodbye to them both and went back home, there were a few more things I wanted to do before calling it a day.

First I'm going to find Nira, who I've left in charge of evaluating the Items we got from Dungeon.

It was no surprise that the whip was a magical weapon with the ability to boost attacks and poison, unfortunately, no one in our group uses a whip, I'll keep it for now, but if I need it it'll be one of the items I'll choose to sell, even Nira said that this weapon is worth a lot.

Another thing was that crystal card, Nira said that it can grant poison resistance to armor or shield, while if used on a weapon it can grant the ability to poison enemies hit.

I've chosen to keep the crystal letter, for now, plan on giving Kira a weapon in the future, but I need to see her and Anton first.

With all that resolved I go to my room at the end of the night, this time I remember to put up the silence barrier, Layla is with me in the room ready to help me if necessary.

I plan to merge some bloodlines today, plus I also need to drink my cup of Dragon blood as well.

I'll start with Dragon blood, if I start merging the bloodlines I won't be able to drink Dragon blood later.

I remove the same barrel of blood from my storage item, remove the lid spreading the blood scent, and grab a glass of blood before closing the barrel and putting it away.

"This blood has a very pure and wild magical energy, I don't think you should drink it."  (Layla)

"Don't worry, other than the pain I'm going to feel there won't be any fatal damage to my body."  (I)

"I think you should call Irina and Vanessa too, they have healing abilities and spells, they would be more useful than me who can only give you potions."  (Layla)

"You may be right, but just call Vanessa, the reason I don't do this sort of thing in front of Irina is that she can't stand that sort of thing, I can see from her look how much she suffers from not helping someone with who cares."  (I)

"Alright, I'll just go get Vanessa then."  (Layla)

Layla flies out the window and returns a few minutes later through my bedroom door sitting on Vanessa's shoulder.

"Layla told me what you're going to do and what you expect me to do, Dad."  (Vanessa)

"That's good as it will spare me the explanation."  (I)

Vanessa looks at the glass full of blood I'm holding with a serious look.

"I don't agree with that, drinking this blood will cause you a lot of suffering, True Dragons are wise beings, but they are also beings with immense power and capable of extreme brutality, their blood must not be consumed by others or it may destroy a body inside out."  (Vanessa)

"Don't worry, this isn't the first time I've done this, I just want you to heal me after I'm done."  (I)

Vanessa still doesn't seem to agree with what I'm doing but she nods in confirmation, so I drink the blood in one go.

Arghhh!!!!

"Ahhhh!!!!!!"  (I)

Once again I feel like I've been drinking acid or magma, I feel my throat burn and wild energies running through my body destroying everything, but this time I feel like I have similar energy in my blood that absorbs this wild energy until it disappears like it's devouring her then the pain ends and I realize I'm on the floor covered in sweat with Vanessa healing me with a worried look.

Ding!

"I'm fine now, this time wasn't as bad as before."  (I)

"You're an idiot putting yourself in danger like that."  (Vanessa)

"The master is not an idiot, he is a big idiot, and don't forget that."  (Layla)

"You sharp-tongued Fairy..." (I)

After about thirty minutes of rest and with my body completely healed I tell the two to get ready since this time it will be worse, merging bloodlines destroys my body much more than drinking Dragon's blood.

Ding!

"..." (I)

I don't have much choice, I can only fuse bloodlines using my vitality as a source of energy, but I must say I was scared by this amount, I'll be half dead if I do.

I was a little scared, but I ended up building up the courage and activating the ability.

Ding!

<[ Starting synthesis ]>

This time I felt my whole body getting weaker, I wasn't even able to lift my arm, when my body was at its weakest point was when it started, I felt three streams of blood inside my body running towards each other until they met in my heart which made me spit a lot of blood, my chest hurt so much that I even thought my heart had exploded.

Suddenly the three streams of blood began to flow through my veins as they swirled together and intertwined, it made every vein in my body throb and ache, many even burst and I could feel the blood leaking out of my ears, nose, and eyes.

The pain was so great and my body was so weak that I wasn't even able to scream, soon I felt something pour into my mouth and gentle energy spread through my body lessening my pain and helping me to maintain consciousness.

After what felt like an eternity the pain stopped and all I felt was a single kind of powerful flow of blood coursing through my veins.

Ding!

After listening to the sound of the notifications and seeing that I had created a bloodline that didn't exist I had to use my last strength to name the breed that would be created from that bloodline, as I was very tired I thought of something simple by putting the name together. "Serpent" which represents all the bloodlines I had to synthesize to create this bloodline and the name "Eclipse" which represents the name of this mansion and the name of my Eclipse Shadow group.

After creating this name and seeing that the notifications ended, I gave in to tiredness and lost consciousness.
