Berserk Stick System

Chapter 37: Secret of Bloodline

Entering the next room, here you can see tall pillars that hold up the room. This room is very spacious, in the room middle there is a statue of a mythical creature. The creature had a body like a horse, with scales on its body. Its head was the head of a dragon with deer antlers and a mane like a lion. There was no mistaking it, the statue was a statue of a mythical creature, Qilin.

“Master, this room looks spacious, wait, that statue in middle…” Woli looked at the statue in middle with a wary expression.

“Yes, as you might guess,”

This should be a final exam. Because I know there are only 3 trials in these ruins. I also remember that this exam is in-game, and the item I’ve been looking for is near that Qilin statue.

It was seen that the Qilin statue was hugging something, it was an egg. This egg was one and a half meters in size. Compared to the statue that was hugging it was a small thing, because the statue looked very large, maybe three times the size of an elephant.

Suddenly the statue began to move, its eyes shining bright gold, as if alive. The voice of someone I heard from the previous room sounded again.

{I have chosen between you and that girl, I see that girl is not suitable to take care of my daughter, she has a bad character. But it’s different with you, you seem very suitable to take care of my daughter, you stay calm while overcoming battle, and most importantly, you have a partner with you}

The Qilin statue is talking, I wonder how it can talk, is it controlled by someone. But hearing him talk about Alice, I am now worried about her state.

“Wait, Alice is okay?” I asked nervously.

{She is fine, she has finished passing the final exam, despite its bad character, she has great abilities, I’ve also given her a reward, for clearing all my exams} The Qilin Statue spoke as if in awe.

‘As expected, Alice is strong,’

“So now what should I do?”

{You will fight against me, I want you to put all your might, if you can’t even fight me, I won’t hand over my daughter to you. But don’t worry, I’m currently just a consciousness stored in this statue}

The Qilin Statue started to move, Woli and I prepared for the upcoming battle. The wind was blowing very hard, the Qilin Statue was behind me without realizing it, he tried to attack us with its horns.

“Woli!!”

“Yes, Master,”

Woli turned into a giant resisting attack from the Qilin, her body immediately retreated from the impact of the attack. I attacked with my chains to restrain the Qilin, but my chain immediately broke, seems useless at all.

Woli and I were hit, and we bounced very far. I hit a pillar while Woli hit a wall. I felt blood collect in my throat and I vomited it out.

“Kugh… so strong, even though it was only his consciousness,”

If he’s this strong even if it’s just consciousness, how strong is his real body? This makes me understand there’s always someone stronger than yourself.

{Is your ability only this much? *Sigh* Looks like I had my hopes up too high}

The Qilin statue looked disappointed, after seeing our abilities. Woli rushed in front of the Qilin quickly, she immediately spits fire from her mouth.

{You want to play with fire with me? Hahaha this looks funny}

The Qilin statue laughed, after which it let out fire from its mouth. The fire was golden in color, it looked very beautiful. The fire that was shot from Woli instantly weakened and Woli was affected by the fire attack.

“Woli!!”

I let go of many chains, towards the Qilin and saved Woli with my chains. The Qilin burned my chains until they melted. Bringing Woli to my side, her body was covered in burns, it seemed she couldn’t last much longer.

“Master, I need to get back into the system, my body has reached its limit,” Woli had a pained face, as she felt wounds on her body.

“Alright, you go back to the system, I will use that skill,”

“W-what? Master, are you going to use that skill? Oh yeah, it should be fine, since you have Alice now.”

Woli looks at me teasingly, My face turns red after she says this, I feel embarrassed now.

“Woli hurry back, I don’t want to talk to you right now,”

“Ok Master,” Woli laughed.

{Hm? Why don’t you fight, with your partner? Are you give up?}

“Why would I give up, now, I’m going to put my all my might,”

The Qilin statue looked interested after I said, wanting to bring out all my might.

Taking a deep breath, I exhaled slowly. The aura around me began to change, a crimson red aura gathered, blending into my body.My eyes started to turn red, I felt the power flowing very fast, inside of me.The Qilin is getting more and more interested, with my changes now.

“Berserk!!”

{Wait, this…}

The Qilin statue was taken aback, after seeing my transformation, he seemed to recognize the ability I was currently using. The chains flowed furiously from all directions towards the Qilin.

{Hahaha, I didn’t expect to see your abilities on this continent}

The Qilin ran through the air dodging all of my attacks. I felt shocked, after he said this, it seemed like he recognized the ability I possess.

“Do you recognize my ability? How did you recognize it?”

I stopped attacking him and asked with intense curiosity.

{Hah.. it seems your condition is as complicated as mine, I recognize your ability because it is the ability of a very powerful clan in my continent, and they are a very secretive clan. They don’t accept blood from outside, because if they have a child other than their own clan, that child will have half-blood, and the ability will be extremely destructive. This may sound good, but there are some children who will have a corrupted mind when using their clan’s abilities due to impure bloodlines, this is why they don’t receive blood from outside,}

I was flabbergasted to hear that, so this ability I possess is actually from a clan that resides on a continent where mythical creatures live. And how could I end up on this continent, if I came from that clan?

“Could you tell me, what clan and race name they are,”

I’m very curious now, the chances of my parents still alive are very high. If the time comes for me to go there, maybe I will meet them.

{Too bad, because of how very secret, and closed off that clan, I don’t even know names of their clans and races, I’ve only met them once, and fought against one of those clansmen, well.. as you know, I was instantly defeated easily} The Qilin smiled bitterly.
