Nameless King

Chapter 357 Preparation



“Your and Leon’s insight is impressive. What do you want to know?”

“Are you travelers?” Felix calmly asked.

“No.”

“Fine.” Felix nodded. He wanted to hear, as it meant that Wain’s and Eva’s house was somewhere close by.

“I want to cooperate with the humans.”

“Hmm? Aren’t you making decisions too fast?” Eva asked. She understood that the other races had a strong interest in the humans, but Felix’s actions seemed reckless to her.

“Don’t get me wrong, I always do. I don’t have the energy to consider the pros and cons of the decisions I’ve made, I act on intuition, and now I want to make contact with your race. Your town isn’t far away, right?”

“Yes, it is, but is your intuition really the only reason?” Wain asked suspiciously.

Felix nodded, “I don’t need more than that, but there’s something that bothers me. Leon wants to go to the Lotus District tomorrow, where no one has been there for a long time because of the sprawling blood lotuses. I won’t stop him from destroying them.”

“What? Leon said your families should fight. Don’t the Fallen Lotus Family and your allies want to keep the blood lotuses?”

“Until recently, this was the case, although I was never involved in the matter, the elders and heads of the other families decided it without me. I felt that the city would be fine regardless of the outcome, but recently my opinion has changed. My intuition tells me that something else is in the Lotus District, and it will be a threat to the city.”

“I see. Tomorrow, you want us to help not the Fallen Lotus Family or the Scarlet Rose Family, but the city deal with the looming threat.”

“Exactly, Leon is not stupid. He will quickly realize that the Blood Lotuses are not the main threat. He and their allies will defeat us easily, but the casualties should be minimal, as I feel we will have to band together to deal with it.”

“Your reasoning is logical, but before I decide, I want to know something. How many times has your intuition failed you?”

“Once, but I did it on purpose… it was a difficult situation then.” Felix replied seriously.

“Felix, dangerous in the Lotus District could hurt the whole town?” Eva asked.

“Are you worried about other areas? Don’t be. If we win, the battle won’t affect any area other than the Lotus District. Now, where is your city located?”

Wain, Eva, and Felix talked for several hours into the dead of night. They learned many things about the city and agreed with Felix to cooperate. After solving the blood lotus problem, Felix would go to Last Light and talk to Gisle.

“It’s late, and I want to sleep…” Felix yawned, “If you want, you can spend the night here.”

“Sure, but I have a small request before you do.” Wain said, “Eva, do you know your blood purity?”

“No.” Eva shook her head, “I haven’t had a chance to find out.”

“Great. Felix, can you help us with that?”

“Ah…I wanted to go to bed, after all… okay, that’s no problem, follow me.”

Felix led them to the Fallen Lotus Family’s greenhouse, where hundreds of different species of rare plants were growing. Several flowers with bright red buds were among them that emitted a bloody fragrance.

Felix plucked the bud and handed it to Eva, “You need to eat it. Then phantom petals will fly out of you. Each petal is one percent.”

Eva nodded and did so. Her eyes lit up, and the petals burst out. They quickly increased in number until they stopped.

“Hmm, how interesting. You don’t see that very often.” Felix muttered.

Fifty petals were floating in the air, indicating that Eva’s blood purity was similar to Wain’s. .

‘Vlad also said that fifty percent is a rare value. Do all the humans have blood purity originally equal to fifty percent?’ Wain pondered.

“That’s not bad. Right?” Eva asked.

“Huh, it’s relative. For some people, 50% is a lot, and for others, it’s not much. Okay, see you tomorrow. I don’t have the energy anymore.” Felix said and closed his eyes. A massive lotus petal appeared behind him. It caught it and flew away.

“Damn, this guy is the king of laziness, and he’s got the right kind of powers for it. I’m even a little jealous of him.”

“Are you really going to sleep when we’re alone in such a beautiful place?” Eva walked over to Wain and kissed him.

“Definitely not!”

Wain and Eva woke up in the greenhouse. They had broken a few rare flowers during the night, but that didn’t bother them. They were full of fighting spirit and energetic.

“Hopefully, in the Lotus District, we can enough boost our blood purity.”

“Me too. If it works out, I can evolve a second time. I need to get my blood purity up to 60%.”

“That’s not much. After we figure out the problem Felix is talking about, you can evolve. I’m sure there are enough blood lotuses in zone zero. I can still distinctly smell that scent.”

“Uh-huh.” Eva smiled and nodded.

Wain and Eva decided not to bother Feno, it was early morning, and he was still supposed to be asleep. They didn’t want him to be dragged into a conflict between two families and a battle with an unknown threat.

“So you came.” Leon said, looking at Wain and Eva walking in his direction. The Scarlet Rose family and their allies were almost done with their preparations.

“Of course, we’re as interested as you are in making sure nothing bad happens to Virfal.”

Wain was not going to support either family. If Felix’s words were true, their conflict was of no interest to Wain.

He had only two objectives, to increase his blood purity and to find out what kind of threat lurked in the Lotus District.

Felix felt threatened, and for some reason, Wain believed him. He wanted to know why the blood lotuses sprouted and what happened after the worlds merged.
