Chapter 478: Bloodline Magic: Real Dream

["Boundary of Journey and Destination!"]

[After activating your bloodline magic, a portal appeared in front of you and Lilith. At the other end of the portal, it showed a patch of soil where a seven-colored flower grew.]

[The soil was corrupted by Perpetual Darkness, but the seven-colored flower still bloomed vibrantly. It was none other than the Dark Sin Flower.]

[The Dark Sin Flower contained seven petals, and each of those seven petals had a color that corresponded to a deadly sin.]

[For example, the green petal corresponded to greed, while the red petal corresponded to wrath. As for the pink petal, it was the part that was filled with the sin of lust, which was what Lilith needed.]

[According to her, when she consumed a Dark Sin Flower, she would only eat the pink petal, while she’d sell the rest to other mages who’d need it as a material for potion alchemy.]

[The only reason why she had to risk her life to find Dark Sin Flowers in the wild was that no one was selling them anymore. The succubi also needed the lust petal for making aphrodisiacs and love potions.]

[In other words, there was a lot of demand, but there wasn’t much supply. Even when Lilith could afford the rising prices at first, it eventually reached the point where she couldn’t compete with richer succubi. They even monopolized the supply, forcing her to find Dark Sin Flowers on her own.]

[Seeing the seven-colored flower, Lilith nodded vehemently, "Yes, those are the Dark Sin Flowers!"]

["Your bloodline magic is even stronger than mine and it’s even more convenient!"]

[You remarked as you entered the portal, "Absolute Boundary might not be the strongest, but it’s the most versatile. There’s almost no situation I’ve encountered where I couldn’t make use of it."]

[The only time you didn’t make use of it was when it was rendered to the second-best option available.]

[For example, using Creation Sovereignty to create items or whatever you think of would be more suitable and would cost less than using Boundary of Creation and Destruction to achieve the same effect.]

[As for Lilith, she had also awakened her Bloodline Magic, which was called "Real Dream". It allowed her to turn what she dreamed or thought of into real things.]

[Due to this, she would make use of Real Dream to transform her illusions into the real version. After all, succubi like her had specialized in dream manipulation and illusion creation, which was also what had allowed Lilith to become an Eight Circle Mage.]

[Of course, Bloodline Magic Awakening Scrolls didn’t exist in their succubus society. Lilith had only awakened hers innately, while other succubi didn’t have the luxury of possessing bloodline magic.]

[Not all mages who awakened their mana could also awaken a bloodline magic. Even the process and creation of Bloodline Magic Awakening Scrolls, which could induce even a non-mage to awaken their bloodline magic, was a closely guarded secret.]

[In fact, most mages might have even lost the inheritance for creating it. It was mostly those vampires who were forced to learn it, as bloodline magic was an important repertoire they had for passing down their inheritance to their descendants.]

[Moreover, succubuses like Lilith didn’t have the incentives to go through all that trouble to awaken a bloodline magic. After all, it didn’t guarantee that they’d awaken a bloodline magic that suited their interest or specialty.]

[More often than not, they’d not even need bloodline magic, since their courses for learning dream magic and illusion magic were more than enough to seduce and tempt their prey.]

[After you’ve learned about Lilith’s Bloodline Magic, you were undoubtedly impressed by its capabilities, as it was truly powerful. However, what held her back was her malnourished state growing up, which was why she couldn’t even use Real Dream to create Dark Sin Flowers.]

[Dark Sin Flowers were seventh-grade magic materials, which meant that for an Eight Circle Mage like her, creating them out of thin air would be a losing business.]

[The lust petal was only one-seventh of the flower, so creating the entire flower would mean that she’d be investing a lot of mana for so little return. And even if she were to create just the lust petal, it would be a case where she’d not gain anything.]

[It wasn’t like your Unlimited Food Creation (Gold) that could create energy out of nothing. Her Bloodline Magic was powerful, but it couldn’t achieve that.]

[Just as you’ve arrived at the other end of the portal, you looked at Lilith, who followed you and couldn’t help but ask, "With your current energy, you could have created a Dark Sin Flower for me to see, and I could have exchanged for it using my innate talent."]

[Hearing your suggestion, Lilith looked at the Dark Sin Flowers growing on the ground in front of the two of them. Then, she exclaimed, "Ah, I didn’t expect that was possible!"]

[Observing Lilith’s expressions that were truly clueless and weren’t faking it, you couldn’t help but look at her incredulously.]

[You remembered, ’I’m so used to being with smart people that I’ve realized that not everyone can think outside of the box. Whether it’s Jade, Magnus, Morvane, and the others, they’re not only talented, but also possess the XX-rank Superintelligent Brain innate talent like myself.’]

[’It’s also likely that Lilith’s bloodline is not as pure as ours, which leaves her with more flaws. Or maybe, she’s inherently an airhead?’]

[’Regardless, I might have judged her based on my and the Zenith Train Crew’s standards.’]

[For you and the Zenith Train Crew, it was crucial to think outside the box and always find loopholes to exploit whatever was possible so that you all could profit more.]

[Additionally, you and the others had also traveled to a lot of worlds and experienced them, giving you all more perspective about a lot of things. The combat simulation and the innate talents you all possessed had also contributed to that.]

[’Well, if Lilith earns my trust, I might share some of the innate talents I have. But for now, she’s only at best friend-level.’]
