CHAPTER 53: BLOODLINE AND BLESSINGS

Now, apart from her general stats, there was still something Mimi hadn’t seen before, or rather, she had never really paid any attention to them in Arventia Online, because for obvious reasons, no player had them...

- Silvervein bloodline (S grade)

- Arzarenia bloodline (B grade)

Thus, curious, Mimi focused and pulled up their descriptions.

***

...

"Woah, no wonder Master’s magic ability is so crazy strong!"

Mimi’s eyes sparkled as the truth dawned on her. "Turns out the Silvervein bloodline (S grade) doesn’t just give a massive Magic boost—it even comes bundled with Mana Heart and Dragon Sense! Like... what the heck? That’s insane!"

Her tail flicked back and forth as she read deeper.

With Mana Heart, even the base effect at Level 1—20% reduced mana cost—was already a game-changer!

"And if she levels it up to 4... eighty percent reduced mana cost plus forty percent spell amplification?! What the fuckkk?!" Mimi’s little jaw dropped. "That’s literally the kind of skill that would make every mage in this world bawl their eyes out with jealousy!"

Mimi’s whiskers shook, as she tried to process it.

"And then there’s Dragon Sense..." she muttered, rereading the description. "Enhanced perception, sensing mana sources, piercing through disguises and illusions... that’s ridiculously broken!" Her ears twitched. "I wonder how effective it is at Level 1. Could it already make basic illusion spells completely useless against her?"

"Damn... Talk about being born with cheat codes!"

"Anyways... let’s see what the other blessing looks like!" she chirped, and scrolled further down.

***

[Arzarenia Bloodline (B grade)]

"Hmmm... Arzarenia?" Mimi tilted her head, her little whiskers twitching. "Oh right! Lord Siamelumis did call Draco ’Child of Arzarenia’ before. So, she must have inherited this bloodline buff from her father."

Still, Mimi’s brow scrunched as she paced in a tiny circle, her tail swishing behind her.

"Arzarenia... Arzarenia... where have I heard that name before?"

And then it hit her like a lightning bolt.

"Aha! That’s it!" Mimi’s eyes lit up in shock. "Ohhh crap... that guy’s background is actually so freaking absurd too!"

Because Arzarenia... was the name of a demi-god, one basically on par with Siamelumis in terms of influence! Some even argued he held greater power.

He was a demi-god who commanded Fire and Destruction, the very embodiment of raw strength and overwhelming might.

No wonder Emilia had Fire Mastery level 2!

But his story was a little different from most demi-gods. Unlike those born with divine spark from the heavens, Arzarenia started as a mortal King. A man of flesh and blood who, through sheer power and will, rose high enough to challenge the gods themselves. And not only did he challenge them... he actually won his place among them. A human who forced his way into divinity.

"Seriously badass..." Mimi admitted, nodding to herself.

However, another thought popped into her mind... something she remembered from the old days.

Because back then, Arzarenia was also famous for something else—something that had made players turn his image into endless memes the moment they learned his lore.

After all, his legacy wasn’t only about strength.

He was infamous for one rather... unique accomplishment.

They called him... the Lord of a Hundred Brides!

Or sometimes... the Ultimate Waifu Collectors!

The True Arventia Protagonist!

Why? Because he basically had so many women! An absurdly huge harem!

No less than 103 beautiful wives in total!

However... Thinking back, Mimi actually pity the guy though. A hundred and three wives was probably way too much even for a demigod.

Naturally, that also meant he had an absurd number of children. Unlike the Silverveins, though, his human descendants never formed a single great clan. Instead, they were scattered across the world, their bloodlines diluted—yet still carrying faint traces of his power.

So even though Emilia’s Arzarenia bloodline was only B grade, nowhere near as potent as her Silvervein bloodline, it was still nothing to scoff at. Anything carrying the mark of Arzarenia’s fire and strength was bound to be formidable.

And with that thought, Mimi dug deeper into its description.

***

[Arzarenia Bloodline]

Rank: Epic

Description: A special blessing granted only to the descendants of the demi-god Arzarenia. Those who inherit this bloodline gain powerful buffs along with a measure of mastery over fire and destruction. The higher the grade, the stronger the blessing becomes.

- Warrior and Berserker class experience +10%

- Strength growth per level +0.25

- Magic growth per level +0.25

- Gained Skill: Fire Mastery

Mana Cost: None

...

"Oooh, not bad, not bad!"

Mimi was genuinely impressed by the potency of that bloodline skill. Maybe not as overwhelming as the Silvervein one, but still very formidable!

It was a little sad that it was only B grade, but hey—Emilia already had an S-grade Silvervein bloodline. Couldn’t really ask for more than that!

However...

There was still one more skill Mimi hadn’t checked yet.

"What is... Flame of Purification?"

She immediately pulled up the details.

And...

"Oh shit... this is actually pretty interesting!"

***

[Flame of Purification]
