Speed Is King

The entire arena exploded into an uproar!

First meeting present? Two vials of blood? Ridiculous!!

And now the two girls got a vial of blood EACH as a first meeting present and a goddamn apology?

I want that kind of apology! Why don’t you whisk me out of my room everyday if that’s how you compensate for it! In fact, whisk me out while I am bathing or even in the middle of doing number 2!

If auras had colours, the entire arena would be awash in green!

“Ohh. So it’s you. Okay, don’t worry about it. If you can see through the dimensional fortress, you must be pretty powerful! Are you here with your underlings to help us win the Games?” Jessica asked as she accepted the vials happily.

Next to them, Primal Alexander’s mouth twitched slightly.

He?

Weakling??

Underling???

“What is in this vial? It looks like blood. A bloodline? I already have a really powerful one called Dark Flame Body. Is it suitable with it?” Jessica asked Primal Lilian curiously.

“Yeah, me too. I have a powerful bloodline called Royal Elemental Feline as well.” Jennifer added.

“It is very suitable with them both.” Primal Lilian smiled at then. “I know this Dark Flame Body. It is a Legendary Grade bloodline. I am guessing an Emperor bestowed it to you, am I right?”

“Yes. A person named Crazy Monk Zero from the Eight Heavens gave it to me as a boon.” Jessica nodded.

“The Eight Heavens is a relatively powerful Empire. It isn’t strange that their Emperors have Legendary Grade Bloodlines. Consuming my blood will upgrade your bloodline by several grades, probably directly into Ancestral or even Origin Grade!” Primal Lilian said with a trace of excitement in her voice.

“I am not familiar with your Royal Elemental Feline bloodline. But judging by its pressure, it is very strong. It is probably already at the Origin grade! This vial of blood might not be enough able to raise your grade. There is a 30% chance that it would fail the upgrade and merely purify it instead.” Primal Lilian said to Jennifer.

“Ooohh! Okay! That’s awesome! Big bro, here! You drink this first. You get stronger and make sure you protect me well.” Jessica said as she put the vial in his hands.

“Here.” Jennifer said as she placed her vial in his hands too. “Primal Lilian said my bloodline is already very powerful. You should take it!”

“Hey, what do you take me for? How can I take the first meeting presents that Primal Lilian gave to my sisters? No way. You girls take it back this instant! Drink them now!” Elliot said sternly.

Both girls put their hands behind their backs and stuck out their tongues at him cutely.

Elliot sighed.

“I hope you don’t mind, Primal Lilian. Our big bro is quite weak compared to most aliens, and needs all the boost he can get so that he can quickly power up. Better pool our eggs in his basket rather than have those eggs taken away from us one by one, right?” Jessica said sagely to Primal Lilian.

Primal Lilian smiled back at her and nodded. “I quite agree with you. In your situation, making your big bro stronger is indeed the best way to stay alive. But aren’t you tempted to gain the bloodline upgrade to the Ancestral or even Origin grade? Many would kill just to get the chance to do that.”

“Ah pooh. What’s bloodline worth if your blood siblings are dead? Better have an awesomely strong big bro to deal with all the troubles in life and then shower us with the good stuff! Mwa ha ha!” Jessica laughed evilly.

“Mwa ha ha ha!” Jennifer joined in as well!

Unexpectedly, Primal Lilian joined in as well!

“Hahahahaha! That’s an excellent philosophy! In that case, let me help you make your big bro really powerful! How’s that? That way, you two will always have “good stuff” to enjoy!” Primal Lilian laughed.

“Yes! Give him more of that blood! If it’s that powerful, another three or four vials should be able to raise his bloodline to the maximum right?” Jennifer cried out.

Plonk.

Plonk.

Plonk.

Primals were collapsing onto their seats in disbelief like flies dropping on a hot summer’s day.

“The stronger the bloodline, the more of the blood is required to raise it up by a grade. Judging by the unique pressure his bloodline is emitting, yes, another three or four vials should allow him to increase his bloodline by two levels.” Primal Lilian nodded.

“Wow! Two levels! That’s awesome! What grade would that be?” Jessica asked eagerly.

“Hmmmm. It’s extremely faint, but I detect a mixing of several different auras. If there are so many mixings, at maximum Elliot’s bloodline should be at the Ancestral Grade. Two levels should bring him up to Origin then to Spiritual Grade.” Primal Lilian said.

“I see. Well? What are you waiting for? Give him the vials so he can power up immediately! Make him super duper strong! In fact, give him some of your treasures while you’re at it. Mwa ha ha ha!” Jessica said shamelessly.

“Jess! How can you say that!” Jennifer said in mock outrage. “We don’t just need treasures. We need help as well! You should just recruit her to join us in our adventure for the next few months! Mwa ha ha ha!”

It was a very light and fun atmosphere, one that was completely devoid of ulterior motives, just two girls openly extorting a rich elf!

Primal Lilian burst out into a peal of laughter at their shamelessness, but she was also inwardly touched by how shameless they were willing to become just for the sake of strengthening their big bro!

True, it was also partly for self preservation, but there was much more than that.

Primal Lilian could sense the love and the care those two sisters have for Elliot, and of course Elliot’s own great love and protectiveness over them.

Primal Lilian decided that she would definitely take those three as her disciples at all costs!
