Will of chaos

That day I went to meet everyone who was on the list to become stronger, these were Zila, Sapphire, Eva, Alice, Barok, and Athena.

They all have great talent and effort in their training, Eva and Alice do training together every day, Alice still has little real combat experience since there are few opportunities that I let her participate in, but I think I can leave after today.

“(You’re really going to do that, you’re a Demigod who has awakened Holy power, even though your awakening was incomplete having so many attached to you like that…)” (Caitlyn)

“(What are you talking about?)” (I)

“(Don’t you know?)” (Caitlyn)

“…” (I)

“(All people with a connection to you become devotees, they will no longer be normal people and will be considered as direct servants of a Deity, even if we are not Gods, we are still Demigods.)” (Caitlyn)

“(Does this have any effect?)” (I)

“(They receive your blessing, you can feel your connection with everyone who has ever performed the Awakening Ceremony, right?)” (Caitlyn)

“(Yes, but only when we’re close, I don’t feel them when they’re far away like I do with my Family members.)” (I)

“(That’s because you’re still weak, but when you fully Awaken as a Demigod that connection will grow stronger and your blessing will be much stronger, at this point it will be like the blessing of a Fairy King or Spirit King.)” (Caitlyn)

“…” (I)

I spent the rest of the drive thinking about what Caitlyn had said, I wasn’t too surprised, being a Demigod is such an important thing, I guess one would expect someone who is a Demigod to be able to give a blessing.

The Ceremony of Awakening clearly says that I have the choice to bestow power on my chosen ones, I always do this because I want those around me to be strong, but this bestowing of power should be considered as a Blessing, in addition to the Ceremony of Awakening it helps to awaken the full potential of a body and maybe even increase that potential, when I think about it logically it becomes clear the similarities that blessings have with this.

After a little distracted walk for being lost in my thoughts, I arrive at the Communal Temple inside the Dungeon.

I already refilled the blood pool after Elizabeth consumed everything, but other than that, this is the best place to do the Awakening Ceremony under the eyes of the Gods who have been of great help so far.

Inside I see everyone on the list along with Kira, Vanessa, the Saints, my Familiars, and Kira’s father who keeps looking at me as her daughter approaches giving me a kiss before speaking.

“I wanted to order something for you, can I get on the list?” (Kira)

“Okay, but why?” (I)

“The reason is…” (Kira)

Kira spends a few minutes explaining that her body is not able to adapt well to Byakko’s power and to resolve this much faster than training that would take years, she can use my Awakening Ceremony to merge the bloodlines of two races that are descendants of Byakko, are races of monsters that Byakko helped to create a long time ago, they are called War Tiger and Lightning Tiger.

The War Tiger can turn his entire body into metal and almost no physical weapon is capable of injuring his body which can be considered an unbreakable weapon of war, he has claws as big as swords, a height of 14 meters, and can control metal with its Aura, remembering that it is one of the rare monsters capable of using Auras.

The Lightning Tiger has incomparable speed and destructive power with the lightning its body emits, it is capable of using Lightning Breath attacks, and it also has a height of 14 meters, just like the other monsters this one is also capable of using Aura, with this ability anyone around you is always covered by a lightning storm bringing widespread destruction around you.

Kira doesn’t seem to know much about the origin of these two monsters other than this information that Byakko gave, but I can see what she wants, she hands me two barrels of blood and asks me to give her the fused bloodline.

I accepted it without thinking, she is my partner, my lover, and my wife, I don’t need to spend time thinking about something that will help her, as long as it’s within my means I will always support what I can just as she has done with me so far.

I spread my Aura a little to cover the two barrels and control the blood to come towards my mouth, then consume two barrels of blood my height and thicker than my body directly.

Ding!

<[ You have acquired the following Bloodlines:

? [ War Tiger: 100% ]

? [ Lightning Tiger: 100% ] ]>

.

.

.

<[ You have acquired the unique skill [ Lightning Storm Aura ] ]>

.

.

.

<[ The unique Skill [ Lightning Storm Aura ] was consumed by the existing Aura Skill ]>

Suddenly disappearing an electric current runs through my body before disappearing, so I feel my Aura a little stronger, I raise my hands and a sphere of very thin black rays appears, I didn’t wait even 1 second before making it disappear. 𝓫𝓭𝓸𝓋𝓁．𝓬𝓸𝓂

“(I can test this later, this is neither the place nor the time to test a new skill.)” (I)

“(With the large number of skills I’ve consumed to date, it’s been a while since I’ve gotten a new one.)” (I)

————–

After confirming things with Kira and then exchanging a few words with Byakko himself before going with Kira to greet her father, it seems that he was the one who got these two bloodlines for me to help his daughter.

After exchanging a few words with him, I call out the name of everyone on the list to speak with each one last time before starting the Awakening Ceremonies.

I talk to each one about what I’m going to do, I didn’t want to force any of them to do anything, and I made it very clear that I would only continue if they accepted what I proposed and nothing would be done if they chose to refuse.

Fortunately, everyone decided to continue, the truth is that not everyone will go through the Awakening Ceremony, and Barok will only receive one of my Dragon Seals.
