Will of chaos

After my fight with Layla, we rested a few minutes before heading back to the third floor, we were heading to the mansion where I asked everyone to gather after the battle.

When I got to the third floor I started walking from the safe room to the mansion instead of asking Layla to open a portal, I did it because I wanted to see the state the others were in, I wanted to know if there were many wounded among the warriors of Sapphire village.

As I walked to the makeshift camp I passed the fruit trees that the Nymphs helped to plant here, they were trees that we uprooted from the forest of the mountain range and then planted inside the Dungeon with the help of the Nymphs, I used the Dungeon's assimilation function to keep them as part of this floor so we have fewer food issues here, I wasn't sure if it would work but everything went well.

When I got to the improvised finish I could see that there were many wounded, but mostly they were light wounds, some with heavy wounds, and I also noticed a place where several bodies were lined up, there were more than a hundred and most were Hobgoblins.

"(More died than I thought.)" (I)

While I was lost in my thoughts trying to understand what was going on, trying to understand how so many died if we were outnumbered and fighting in a much more favorable environment for us, at that moment a big hand claps my shoulder, I turn around and acknowledge that's Leo, he seemed to have some injuries, but he seemed to be fine, so I paid more attention to his clothes and Machado who were in a horrible state.

"From the state of your Battleaxe and your combat clothes, I imagine you've had a hard fight."  (I)

"We were surprised during the fight with something we didn't expect, do you want me to talk here?"  (Leo)

"No, wait until the meeting at the mansion starts, we'd all better listen together."  (I)

"As you wish."  (Leo)

"You should change, it'll make Caryna cry if she sees you like this."  (I)

"You can be right, she doesn't like to see blood, she also hates it when the people she cares about are hurt."  (Leo)

"I know that, that's why I walk away from her when I have to do something that will hurt me."  (I)

"I appreciate that, I hate to see her sad or worried."  (Leo)

"Then try to be strong enough not to get hurt next time so she won't worry about you so much."  (I)

"Talking makes it seem easy, but I'm not like you master, even though I train a lot I know I won't become strong overnight."  (Leo)

After a little chat with Leo I leave, on the way I see Caryna, Alice, and Nolan taking several carts with food to the camp, I greet them and head to the mansion.

"Welcome back, Master."  (Sophia)

"I'm back."  (I)

"Everyone is already here, you were the last to arrive."  (Sophia)

"I already imagined that I had to fight the last enemies, so it was inevitable that I would be the last."  (I)

"Where are Vanessa and Irina?"  (I)

"They are resting, in addition to having fought the two, they also helped in the treatment of several allies in the camp, as there was no one else very seriously injured I dragged them back to rest."  (Sophia)

"Good job, they can't overdo it."  (I)

"By the state of your clothes I can tell it was an intense battle, are you ok master?"  (Sophia)

"I'm fine, I was in need of a battle like this where there was nothing around to worry about but the enemy, thanks to that I think I'm starting to fight better against large groups of enemies."  (I)

"I don't know how the master got in this dirty state, I fought by his side and I'm still clean."  (Layla)

"You didn't just watch the master fight without doing anything, did you Layla?"  (Sophia)

"Of course not, I fought too."  (Layla)

"She used a weird barrier to keep from getting dirty while she struggled."  (I)

While talking to Sophia who stayed at the mansion, I head upstairs to grab some clothes before going to take a shower, I can't keep dirt and dried blood on me forever.

I took my time in the shower to check out the notifications I had been ignoring before.

I already imagined that after defeating so many enemies this would happen, it looks like I'll evolve tonight, I think I'll take advantage of my relaxed mood to meditate and integrate this EXP.

I spend a few minutes sitting with my hands on my knees meditating to better absorb the EXP in my body, after doing this so many times since I was born in this world I've gotten used to it.

As soon as I finished I finished my shower and got dressed while thinking that it was a shame not to have more skills leveling up, it seems that it is not as easy as it was in the past, the higher you get, the harder it is to climb.

I didn't care much about the bloodlines I acquired, they weren't of use to me at the moment, I also realize that it won't be easy to acquire skills from now on, even after having killed so many and drinking their blood I only gained those few skills, I imagine that I should already have the skills that I would acquire from them.

I also noticed that I acquired almost no abilities from the rabbit blood I drank in the past, I only received these.

Abilities gained from Rabbit Blood:

• [ Reinforced Rabbit Horn Production: 1 ]

• [ Magic Rabbit Horn Production: 1 ]

• [ 3D Maneuvers: 1 ]

• [ Breath of Ice: 1 ]

I only received these abilities from the dozen barrels of Rabbit blood I consumed, there were very few but I can't do anything about it.

But I must say it's a shame I didn't acquire abilities from the bloodlines I create by synthesizing other bloodlines together, I was very interested in the abilities I could get from the Rabbits' final synthesis bloodline, the bloodline name was [ Mystic Rabbit (Unique ): 100% ].

This bloodline must be very powerful, but it is useless to me.

"Master, are you still in the bath?"  (Freya)

While I was lost among various random thoughts, I heard someone knocking on the bathroom door and talking to me, it was Freya.

"I'm leaving, Freya."  (I)

"Just wanted to say that the others are in the ballroom, a big table has been set up there for you, the village leader Sapphire and the village council representatives to gather."  (Freya)

"Thanks, I'll be down in a few minutes."  (I)

After Freya's warning, I dry off and get ready before heading downstairs.

----------

After I was clean and tidy I go to the meeting place, Layla didn't want to participate in this meeting which according to her is very boring, so she went to check how the other Fairies inside the Dungeon are doing and also went to see the Cradle of fairies.

When I arrive I find everyone talking about their battles, one of the things I discovered was that all representatives of the various races have Grade A strength, the strongest person in the village really is Sapphire with a strength equal to Elsaris being in Grade SS.

I walk in and sit in the only empty chair that was probably reserved for me, as soon as I sat down the village leader turned her face towards me.

"Glad you arrived, we were waiting for you to start the meeting."  (Sapphire)

"Sorry I'm late, I needed a shower and a new outfit, I couldn't walk around with dried blood trapped in my body."  (I)

"I can understand that, that was a problem for me many times when I was younger."  (Sapphire)

"But it's been a long time since I've been covered in an enemy's blood or even my own blood, most of them die in a single attack and I don't even need to get close."  (Sapphire)

"I could have fought from a distance too, but I wanted to train in melee combat with a large number of enemies."  (I)

"I respect your way of training, many don't have that boldness or courage, I've also done this kind of thing in the past, these experiences make you stronger."  (Sapphire)

"(Master we have a problem.)" (Nix)

As I talk to the village leader, I suddenly hear Nix's hurried voice in my head, I close my eyes to focus on her.

"(What's up, Nix?)" (I)

"(I guess we'll have to change our plans.)" (Nix)
