CHAPTER 419: SOLVING TWO MORE PROBLEMS

Idan was acutely aware of the cool liquid flowing down his throat and into his stomach. Standing in the center of the viscous and hot lava, he immediately felt the potion begin to take effect.

The coolness first spread throughout his body, relaxing him, and then spread to the space of his soul. Under the influence of the potion were not only his first Star, but also the second.

"Huh? Where’s Rizzy?" —Idan noticed that his second Star was empty, but shining brightly, showing that Rizzy was all right.

"Lucinda," Idan turned to Lucinda, distracted from the effects of the potion. "Rizzy, is she with the Master?"

"No, — Lucinda shook her head. "Rizzy suddenly appeared while you were unconscious and started reaching for you, demanding blood."

Idan wasn’t surprised. Rizzy drank his blood at least twice a day.

"The Nanny doll quickly took matters into her own hands and helped her drink some of your blood. But then Geminia showed up and took her away, saying she would look after her until you woke up."

"Oh, so she’s with Geminia..." Idan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. "Geminia probably put her back on the time team so that the baby wouldn’t starve during our absence."

Idan couldn’t help but notice Geminia’s concern for Rizzy. He made a note to remember to thank Geminia as soon as he got back.

Find out the reasons for Rizzi’s disappearance. Idan returned his attention to his first Star. Under the effect of the potion, it began to glow slowly, and it could be seen that it had begun to heal.

"It’s going to take a while," Idan remarked.

[Host, there’s no need to rush the Star restoration process. Let everything take its course,] the System reminded.

"What happens then, System? What should I do after the Star is restored?"

[After the Star is restored, the next step will be to nourish a piece of the soul. This is necessary so that it does not fade away, and then it can strengthen itself and begin to restore the missing parts.]

"And what should I feed it with? Soul crystals?" asked Idan.

[Yes, that’s right], the System confirmed.

"Okay, — Idan nodded, feeling a little inspired and full of hope that he could bring Ned back to life.

[Host, your second bloodline and your partner’s second bloodline have been absorbed by a Rank 6 creature’s ability. Your second bloodline slot has suffered serious damage. In addition, after interacting with the power of a Rank 6 creature, there is a piece of its energy left in your body, which slowly depletes your strength.]

"Is that why I feel so weak?" Idan initially thought that he hadn’t fully recovered yet, but it seems he was wrong.

Without thinking for a long time, Idan opened the status window.

------------------------

"My stats have been reduced by almost 30 percent," Idan remarked after doing a quick mental calculation. "Even the Energy of Madness was affected this time."

The second thing that caught his attention were the strange symbols that appeared instead of the name of his second bloodline, as well as where his bloodline’s rank was usually displayed.

Finally, his first Star in the "Beast Taming " function was marked as "Damaged", and next to the creature’s name was marked "dead".

Idan studied his status for a while longer before opening an additional window dedicated to his first bloodline with a slight curiosity.

------------------------

Bloodline - Alpha of Fire - (auxiliary)

First Form: Transformation into Alpha of Fire

Rank: Golden

Description: This ability allows the Host to transform into the mysterious and powerful Alpha of Fire race. During the transformation, all the characteristics of the Host become corresponding to the rank of his bloodline, up to the Gold Rank. Understanding and mastery of all fire-related abilities increases by one level.

Second Form: Flame Spirit Transformation

Rank: Second Circle

Title: Child of Fire

Description: This is a special form of Flame Spirit. During the transformation, all Host’s characteristics increase by 30 percent, and also receive an additional boost, depending on the quality of the Fire Source. In addition, the speed of damage recovery, mana, and stamina of the Host is greatly accelerated, and this speed also depends on the quality of the fire source.

Transformation requirements: Flame Spirit transformation is only available in the form of Alpha of Fire and if there is a Fire Source nearby

Additional forms:

- Light Flame Spirit Form is a special form of Flame Spirit enhanced by fusion with the Element of Light. It provides an additional 20 percent boost to all performance.

Transformation requirements: The Light Flame Spirit Form transformation is only available in the form of an Alpha of Fire and if there is a Source of the Element of Fire and the Element of Light nearby.

------------------------

"Hmm... there doesn’t seem to be any significant changes here... Wait a minute! The second circle? Has my rank increased?" Idan was pleasantly surprised to find that his Spirit Form had risen from the first to the second circle.

"And a new additional form has appeared! The fusion of Flame and the element of Light!" he exclaimed, immediately remembering what he had become during the battle with Erza. "So this Spirit Form is called the Light Flame Spirit Form?"

[Host. Regarding the remaining energy of a Rank six creature and your damaged second bloodline slot, this System has several suggestions.]

"Huh?" Idan was slightly surprised by the initiative of the System related to these two problems. "What kind of suggestions?"

[While you were unconscious, this System couldn’t get rid of the energy of a rank six creature without consequences. Now that you have come to your senses, you can try to expel this energy yourself by using the abundant amount of fire element in the area, assuming your Spirit Form.]

[However, this System suggests not just getting rid of this energy, but suppressing it using the Spirit Form and sealing it for later possible use.]

"Suppress and seal?" The System’s suggestion brought back memories of past events in Idan. "Let me guess, System, do you want to use this energy in the upcoming Ascension Trial?"

[...] The system only sent the dots.

And that was enough for Idan to realize that he was right.

"Okay, I don’t see any problem with that," he said with a sigh. "Anything that doesn’t kill us makes us stronger. I think that’s what they said. So, at least until today, the System’s actions, although they have led to some difficulties, have brought more benefits."

"What about my bloodline?"—Idan moved on to discuss his second problem.

[The System offers two solutions to this problem.]

[First: Completely remove the remnants of the second bloodline using the "Purification Potions" available in the "Trade" function. Then you should purchase "Potions to repair a damaged Bloodline slot." After that, when the slot is restored, you can buy a new "Bloodline Potion".]

[The System immediately warns that, as in the case of the Star, it will take a considerable amount of time to remove the remnants of the bloodline and restore the slot.]

"And all of this requires System Points," Idan muttered. "Fortunately, we still have a small supply."

"As far as I understand, this is your first suggestion. What about the second one?"

[The System informs you that it has received an offer from the "Supreme Bloodline System", which, after learning about your problems, invited you to participate in its experiments on merging bloodlines].
