"What is this blood domain?" I understood that Sarah was the one causing the light show in the cave, and if not for the energy of the cave, she would have turned into a blood-sucking vampire, but what I did not understand is what is a blood domain. This was a totally new concept for me. 

"I do not know how it works for you humans, but for me, blood domain was something I learned innately. So I cannot be of much for you guys in this area." Bloodette was of no help, but I knew where I could get the answer, and it was the Clown Mask's memories. 

Accessing clown mask's memories, I understood that the blood rule domain or any rule domain could be achieved when one gains complete mastery in a signal meaning of that particular rule. That mean's Sarah has achieved complete mastery in a specific meaning of blood rule, enabling her to use the blood domain. But the question was what meaning of blood rule did she accomplish complete mastery to lead to such abnormality. Considering it can suck blood energy and blood rule energy, I would bet that the meaning in which she achieved complete mastery should be vampiric in nature.

Even with so many clues, it was hard to tell which meaning of blood rule Sarah had gained complete mastery of as there are millions and billions of meanings in just Blood rule, and most of these meanings are vampiric in nature or require blood sacrifice. Not to mention any blood rule meaning I knew of, did not send a person into a trance-like state. I knew Sarah was not under the enlightenment state cause she did not have that air around her. Therefore this abnormality in Sarah was puzzling. 

"What is your clone doing, Bloodette?" I asked, pointing at Bloodette's clone, seated in a lotus position and meditating. 

"That's not a clone. It is a Blood Incarnation. Unlike avatars and clones, this has whole new abilities, it can comprehend rules and then transfer them to the original body. I usually use them to gain mastery of other rules. I focus on the Blood rule, and they focus on different rules." Bloodette introduced me to a whole new world of incarnations. They reminded me of my three slave consciousness as I planned to use those guys for the same purpose. 

"Amazing. Is there no downside to these Incarnations?" I knew that if something is too good to be true, then it isn't. Therefore I double-checked with Bloodette to see if she left out some stuff about the incarnations and their miraculous abilities. 

"Well, the rule meaning mastered by the incarnation can only be transferred to the original owner if they have achieved completion in it. And also, the talent of the incarnation for the comprehension of the rule depends on the talent of the original body. My talent for other rules is lower than the bare minimum. Therefore, I still haven't transferred a single meaning from these incarnations." Finally, Bloodette spilled the disadvantages of incarnations. No wonder these incarnations are not as popular as clones among humans. 

"Oh, then what is it doing right now?" Since the blood incarnations are of no help to Bloodette, I didn't understand why Bloodette was using it right now. 

"I am using it to comprehend the blood rule meaning that girl comprehended to completion. This way, we will be able to find out what meaning of blood rule she mastered to completion to cause such an anomaly in her." Bloodette explained that she used the incarnation to feel the blood rule meaning in Sarah's domain and then comprehend that meaning to find out what it is. 

Though Bloodette was the blood supreme, oddity born from the blood rule itself, she could not mess up the order she comprehended the blood rule. She had to achieve completion in the meaning of blood rule she is already comprehending before jumping to other blood rule meaning. Therefore she used her blood incarnation to comprehend the blood rule meaning from Sarah's Blood rule domain. Since Bloodette had the supreme talent in blood rule, her blood incarnation also had a supreme talent in blood rule mastery, so the answers to what blood rule meaning Sarah comprehended to the competition will be out soon. 

While Bloodette tried to figure out what was wrong with Sarah in her way, I decided to try my way out. My way was a lot simpler and more efficient than Bloodette's. My way was advanced and faster as it involved an evolved and sentient super AI, the Hive AI. 

I had the master Hive AI in my Calamity soul gem to access the slave Hive AI in Sarah's Calamity daughter gem. And without surprise, the master Hive AI was able to establish a connection with the Hive AI in Sarah's calamity daughter gem. Using the link, I asked Hive AI to access Sarah's memory records. I had all the slave Hive AI in my calamity daughter gems keep a tab of their host's every activity and action. There are too many wired cards out there, and adding rules and runes to that, I knew I could not believe that my calamity daughter gems were perfect. Therefore as insurance, I had the Hive AI maintain secret surveillance of their host's every action. 

Was I too paranoid? No, I think I was not paranoid enough because, in the alternate history seen by Clown Mask, the three mischiefs were almost able to overturn the current world as we know. Did the mighty royal families governing the Northern and Southern regions ever think that the matron would overthrow their power and control over the two regions without even coming out of the shadows? They would have never imagined such a thing was possible and were too sure that things would continue as it is for centuries to come. But the future seen by Clown mask proved them wrong. Therefore it would not hurt me to be more cautious. 

"Wyatt, My incarnation found the meaning that Sarah comprehended___." 

"Is it the Bloodline Memory?" 

"How did you know?" 

"That's a secret."
