Death… And Me

Chapter 580 - Lets Leave

Chapter 580 - Let's Leave

Inside the office, Frandin went to the counter where he could ask for information. However, this time, he acted very politely, not bringing out his prideful self into the open at all. The Bloodline Trials were the backbone of each Empire, so no one dared to cause problems when it came to it.

On the counter, the female Zasfin looked at Frandin without even looking at Roan.

"How can I help you?"

Frandin then bowed.

"Hi. I would like to know the procedures to go through a Bloodline Trial. To be more specific, what kind of security measures I should pay attention to when trying it out."

The attendant nodded in response before explaining.

"To gain the right to participate, you first need to go through our test. There isn't much of a point in telling you about the security procedures before you can even pass that."

Frandin nodded before he took a deep breath and activated his own Bloodline Mark.

"Hmm? You have a Rank Two Bloodline Mark already? Could it be that you intend to apply for a promotion?"

Frandin nodded as he replied.

"Yes. I would like to try out a Rank Four Bloodline Trial."

The attendant was taken aback.

"Rank Four? Not Rank Three? You do know that the requirements to even gain the rights to try it out are very harsh, right?"

"Yes. I'm aware of that. However, before getting the test, I want to know what I should pay attention to so that I can prepare myself for the previous test. I know I first need to pass the office's test before going through the trial, after all."

The attendant nodded as she explained.

"That's correct. You'll need to reach a certain amount of Soul Power before you can even go there. Very well. There's no problem in telling you since you already have a Rank Two Mark."

The attendant found it weird that they would ask for security procedures. That wasn't normal. She also noticed that Roan... didn't seem as submissive as a human would usually react. He looked straight at her as if he was on equal standing. That bothered her a little, but she thought it to be underneath her status to bother with a human. In the end, she simply continued to give Frandin the information.

"As the bloodline trials' ranks increase, so does the security and rareness of the trials grounds. After all, no Empire wants to give the chances for their enemies to destroy it. If you pass the Soul Power test, we will then do a full background check on you. You'll also need the support of at least one person with the Bloodline Mark Rank you want to try the trial for.? You said you wanted to try a Rank Four Bloodline Trial, so your supporter has to have a Rank Four Bloodline Mark."

"The 100 kilometers around the Bloodline Trials are fully guarded. Because of that, you need to make sure to never leave your supporter's side. He will accompany you during the entire process, only leaving your side when you enter the trial itself. If anything wrong happens during your test, your supporter will be held responsible."

"Don't try anything funny around there, or you might get killed without being given a chance to explain."

"Of course, if you have a high enough nobility rank, you can jump all these steps and try the bloodline trial straight away. However, I doubt someone like that would come here to ask for information."

Frandin took a deep breath after hearing all of that. She wasn't even talking about the prerequisites to take the test, just the procedures. Still, they were already that harsh.

'Well, I don't have the necessary Soul Power to try a Rank Four Bloodline Trial anyway.'

Roan, who had just been listening by the sides, was satisfied with the explanation, though.

'That's enough. Tell her that you aren't ready yet, and let's head back.'

Frandin nodded.

"Thank you for the information, miss. I think I know how to go around now. I'll be back once I'm ready for it. By the way, how much Soul Power do I need to take the Rank Four Bloodline Trial?"

The attendant nodded before asking.

"As you know, that depends on your age. How old are you?"

"I'm 23."

"Very well, you will need 310 Soul Power Strength without your Bloodline Mark's help to take this trial."

Frandin bitterly smiled after hearing that.

'Holy shit! 310! I'm not even close to that even when I activate my Bloodline Mark, let alone without it. I don't want to even imagine how much I would need to try a higher rank.'

After that, Roan and Frandin left the Bloodline Office.

"Was that enough?"

Roan nodded.

"Yes. Let's go back to the workshop."

While Roan and Frandin were in the Bloodline Trials Office, a storm was brewing in the city. The information about Roan and Calina's cultivation quickly spread. Not to mention that Roan had cut Falin's arm. The City Lord was enraged by that and sent all his subordinates out to look for Roan's group.

There were even pictures of how Roan, Frandin, and Calina looked. Of course, cutting Falin's arm caught a lot of attention. However, what the others were really interested in were Calina and her blond hair. Some of the powers within the city also dispatched their subordinates in the hopes of finding her. Not only was Calina blond, but she was also young and had high cultivation. She was the perfect female human slave that everyone desired. It wasn't only men, though. Even the powerful Zasfin women in the city wanted her on their side as a way of showing their status.

However, everyone knew Roan and Calina's cultivation now. That being said, only those at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm would have some hope of capturing them. Still, the lower level Zasfin also had a reason to look for them.

On their way back, Roan and Frandin saw the posters with their faces being put everywhere. Sure enough, there was a reward for the information. The City Lord and the influential cultivators in the city were all offering their own bounties for anyone who had any information on them. That being said, it was still worth it for the weaker ones to go out and see if they were lucky.

Of course, Roan and Frandin had a completely different appearance at the moment.

Roan narrowed his eyes after seeing that, though.

'Let's leave the city.'
