Chapter 96: Chapter 96: "So That’s Why I’ve Been Getting Harassed by the Girls!" - The Crimson Sovereign.

"Yes!" He confirmed as the system interface appeared before his eyes, detailing the first bloodline.

[Crimson Sovereign Bloodline (Divine)]

["Blood remembers. Blood obeys. Blood evolves. And all blood shall eventually return to its Sovereign."]

[Origin: Evolved from the Crimson Origin Bloodline using The Goddess of Blood’s Essence. Created by Lucien Dracul Aethernis.]

He read the origin line twice.

"...This is ridiculous, can’t believe I made my own unique bloodline." He said grinning.

He then moved to checking each bloodline ability one by one, clicking on them for their descriptions.

[Crimson Sovereign’s Physique]

[Description: Physique of the Crimson Sovereign. Turns the user’s blood into an extraordinary resource and weapon.]

• Crimson Sovereign’s Body: Vastly enhances strength, speed, vitality, and regeneration. The user’s blood circulates at an extraordinary rate and possesses immense vitality, allowing them to survive catastrophic damage.

• Crimson Sovereign’s Blood: Instinctively detects, isolates, and purges poisons, diseases, curses, and foreign corruption, scales with the strength.

• Blood Nourishment: When intentionally shared, the user’s blood can heal and nourish other living beings.]

• Sovereign Allure: The natural charisma of the Crimson Sovereign on top of their divine beauty/handsomeness, further refines the user’s features, eyes, voice, scent, and presence into something unnaturally captivating, emits a passive aura that subtly lowers the psychological defenses of others to ease trust, persuasion, and attraction without outright mind control. The effect is heavily pronounced against those attracted the opposite gender, though exceptional soul strength can reduce its influence.]

’So that’s why I’ve been getting harrased by the girls,’ he thought funnily, remembering Aurelia touching all over his body and teasing his little brother. ’And Carmilla checking me out every time, it even affects a Goddess?’

’Or maybe she’s just a thirsty Goddess and weak to handsomeness?’

’Great, cool, now I have to worry about being jumped, but I gotta hide my handsomenes for my wives only.’ He joked as he moved to the next abilities.

[ Blood Subjugation: Lower ranked bloodlines suffer pressure in the Sovereign’s presence, inflicts severe debuffs including strength drops, increased mana costs, mental pressure, physical pressure, etc depending on their bloodline.]

[Sovereign’s Decree: Target any entity reliant on a blood and temporarily seal or completely forbid them from accessing their bloodline abilities. The target must possesses a lower ranked bloodline and suppression varies with the targets strength. Especially effective on Vampire’s and Vampire related beings.]

’So an evolved form of what I has previously and an ability that can basically tell a vampire’s bloodline to shut up.’

’It should work on Demon Vampire’s too.’ He thought already thinking of its uses against against certain family.

[Blood Origin Rebirth]

[ • Divine Regeneration: Rapidly heals and reconstructs destroyed tissue, shattered bones, vital organs, the brain, and the heart in mere seconds to minutes depending on the type and amount of damage by drawing directly upon blood and mana reserves, healing them back to their peak.

Divine Rebirth: Upon complete erasure or destruction of the user’s physical body, they can fundamentally reconstruct their entire form over time from a single surviving drop of blood, refusing absolute death.

• Eternal Sovereignty: Grants agelessness that keeps them at the physical peak and an immense lifespan, nearly 100 times that of similar rank cultivators. ]

He stared at this ability the longest.

’This is genuinely cheat level disgusting, but I like it, basically makes me semi immortal with insane regen.’

’Wonder how this Divine Rebirth actually works, am I restored to my peak?’ He wondered as it had Rebirth in its name.

[Genesis of Blood: Absolute telekinetic and structural control over blood, user dictates its density, temperature, pressure, shape and flow. Can create blood directly from mana, that can be used in battle and cannot be used for nourishment or healing. Grants Divine affinity over the element of blood and lesser affinities over its base elements.]

[Elemental Blood Weaving: Seamlessly integrate different compatible elements directly into blood.]

’Sick so basically blood manipulation on some kind of magical steroids?’ He grinned and formed a tiny blade in the air experimentally, then a spear, then, without quite meaning to, a miniature copy of Reaper’s Crescent.

’I can basically make any weapon I want out of thin air now,’ he thought, delighted. ’And I already have a weapon that eats other weapons. Redundancy at it’s finest, though this redundancy is great.’

’And this Blood Weaving, can I make bloodfire, what about shadow, how would that work?’ He tried using it with his fire affinity courtesy of one of his previous trait extraction sessions and whatever beast gave him the fire affinity trait.

He lifted his finger as blood gathered and then ignited into a crimson fire.

’What should I test this on?’ He thought and pulled out one of the various low ranking weapons he had from his storage ring as the flame burned the weapon and even burned through the mana in it, after a few minutes the weapon showed signs of corrosion as its mana was almost fully burned, as Lucien stopped and inspected the damage.

’So it’s a destructive flame that corrodes and burns mana?’ He concluded deciding to test this more later on, and on some dungeon monsters to see what it does to them.

[Crimson Bloodline Harvest]

[Extraction: Consuming the heart’s blood of a vanquished creature condenses their bloodline into a Bloodline Seed.

Assimilation: The user can aquire the bloodline by using its seed, the Crimson Sovereign Bloodline forcefully suppresses and eliminates any genetic or spiritual conflicts between absorbed seeds, with the amount of seeds and rank of seeds determined by soul strength, cultivation rank and seed rank.

Infusion: Bloodline seeds can be implanted into other living beings, allowing them to awaken latent or new bloodlines, amplify existing bloodlines, or heal damaged bloodlines. ]

’Sweet, now I can extract bloodlines too, though it’s a shame their rank drops.’

’The heart’s blood should be the blood essence, since it’s present in the heart.’ He thought.

His thoughts the went to his wives.

’I should power them up some more, but it’s best to find high ranking bloodlines that are compatible with them.’ He moved to the next ability.

[Crimson Conversion: Triggered by introducing his blood into a target. It establishes a contract that gradually forces loyalty on targets, prevents betrayal knowing or unknowingly, enables limited telepathic communication and increases external mental resistance. Targets with superior soul strength or willpower can resist the process.]

[Crimson Marks: Formal blood pacts for the converted, allowing tracking of their location, long range communication and may grant more benefits depending on the user.]

’That one I’m using with caution,’ he decided immediately. ’Not casually enslaving people with my new party trick, I wouldn’t mind using it on my enemies and getting free labour.’

[Crimson Clones: Creates one to one clones that possess memories up to their creation, retain 50% physical strength, and are three cultivation ranks lower than the original. They can only utilize learned skills and techniques. The maximum active clone capacity scales with his soul strength, mental capacity, and mana and blood reserves.

Reassimilation: Upon destruction or voluntary recall, a clone transfers all accumulated experiences and memories back to the original.

Current Max: 1]

’So it creates independent clones from my blood, mana and a small piece of my soul.’

’What about when they get destroyed, what happens to the soul piece?’ He wondered.

’With this I can spend even more time with the girls.’ He grinned outright at that.

[Blood Memory Extraction: Consuming blood grants access to a target’s memories, past experiences, learned techniques, languages, and hidden secrets. The clarity and completeness of the retrieved information scale based on the quantity, purity, and age of the consumed blood, alongside user’s relative soul strength compared to the original owner.]

’Convenient,’ he thought, ’right after fixing my soul specifically, almost too convenient.’

’Are you finally done?’ Carmilla’s voice cut through his focus.

’Just about.’

’Well? Did you finally decide on names?’

’Yeah with Aurelia’s help, Crimson Sovereign for the the main one.’

’Not bad, actually.’

’Thanks.’

’But I would’ve just called it Lucien Bloodline One.’

’...You’re joking right?’

’And the second one Lucien Bloodline Two.’

’That’s worse than Evelisse wanting our family name be Bob.’

’I don’t understand the criticism.’

’It has zero personality. It’s just your own name with a number attached.’

’It’s efficient.’

’It’s lazy.’

’I’m a Goddess, I don’t need to be creative, me existing is impressive enough on its own.’

He decided not to continue that particular argument, since he had, distressingly, no counter for it.

He then turned back to the interface.

[Bloodline: Crimson Sovereign.]

[Rank: Divine.]

[Abilities: Crimson Sovereign’s Physique, Blood Origin Rebirth, Genesis of Blood, Sovereign’s Decree, Crimson Bloodline Harvest, Crimson Conversion, Elemental Blood Weaving, Crimson Marks, Crimson Clones, Blood Memory Extraction]

"So this bloodline basically gets stronger by stealing," he said aloud as he explained the abilities to her, since almost everyone received information on their bloodlines through the bloodline itself stuffing the basic info into their heads as they had to go through it.

’It’s good, extremely good, though I’m not surprised, since I was my blood that was used, still the for the amount of abilities it has, it’s quite powerful and very versatile, especially the bloodline seed one.’ She said already planning things to test later on with him.

’It even makes you more handsome, maybe you’re secretly planning to seduce your sugar mommy?’ She said grinning.

’That’s the part that got your interest the most?’

’Yes, I would have definitely tried seducing myself in your shoes, look at my beauty, just so you know I’m in the top 50 most beautiful Goddess.’ She said proudly.

"I’m sure this is even better than the main Dracul Aethernis Bloodline." He said changing the topic.

’It was evolved using my blood, so of course it’s better, heck I’m sure its better than some High Noble Vampire Bloodlines, so what’s a little Demon Vampire family bloodline?’

’Yes, yes all thanks to my dear and wonderful Master.’

’Atleast you know that, my sugar disciple.’ She said smiling in Seraphina’s room.
