Sovereign of the Firmaments

Chapter 190 - Blood Pill

'Ding,

          Congratulations to the host for awakening a Duke grade talent in the formation master.

'Ding,

          Start gaining knowledge on the formations to increase your rank.

As for Lucas, he received two system notifications, which he didn't bother and replied to Beck, "Formation master".

"Wow…it's a cool profession."

Formation masters were a little special and valued a lot because there was not a single powerful family or guild that didn't have a formation protecting their family.

So, Beck was excited when she heard Lucas' reply as that profession would be very helpful for the rise of the Hellmore family.

"However, it will take a lot of time for me to study the formations."

Lucas shook his head as he didn't keep many hopes on it yet; instead, he looked at Wilfred who was looking at Lucas with a calm look on his face.

'I have to tie him to my Hellmore family at any cost.'

Even though he had the talent, it would take years at minimum for him to become a high-level formation master; however, if Wilfred joins the Hellmore family, the family would instantly gain a high-level formation master.

"Since you are awake, I will ask you something."

Lucas didn't waste any time as he directly wanted to ask Wilfred about joining his family to take revenge against the Weapons pavilion.

"Young master, can you protect me for a couple of months and give me some materials to create portal formations? In return, I will become a slave you for eternity after I take my revenge against that bastard Geoffrey and the weapons pavilion in the Iron forge town."

Wilfred was very respectful as he weakly asked Lucas.

'What?'

However, when Lucas heard Wilfred' words, he was shocked for a moment and became excited in his heart as he thought, 'I didn't think he will take the initiative to become my slave. Looks like lady luck is smiling on me'

Even though he was said that it was luck, deep down, Lucas could understand why Wilfred could go to such extremes as to become someone else slave just for a few months of protection and some materials.

'It is the most painful thing to find out that he was betrayed by his own people?'

He knew exactly what Wilfred was going through right now as he had already gone through the same thing in his previous life.

So, he more or less could connect with Wilfred; however, he didn't agree to Wilfred' request directly and after acting like he was thinking for a few moments, Lucas nodded his head.

"Thank you, young master, thank you very much."

Wilfred thanked Lucas from the bottom of his heart.

Even though Wilfred was an expert with peak general knight strength, he was very weak without his formations which he had already used in killing the amber elementals.

At the same time, he was feeling that the knight energy in his body was corroded with nether ice energy. So, he needed to remove it and get back to this strength before creating some portable formations.

"However, there is no need for you to rush your revenge as the weapons pavilion will not be going anywhere."

Seeing how grateful Wilfred was, Lucas shook his head as he said a few words.

Decisions that were made in the heat of the moment would always go wrong. Moreover, Lucas was also planning to remove all the branches of the weapons pavilions from the Barren firmament.

"..."

However, Wilfred didn't say anything and thought about it for a moment before replying, "I will keep the young master' words in my mind."

'Sigh…he clearly didn't want to delay and destroy the weapons pavilion branch as soon as possible.'

Lucas sighed as he could clearly sense Wilfred didn't have any intentions of delaying his revenge.

'So be it…if possible I will assist him from the sidelines.'

Lucas knew a betrayed expert would definitely not calm down until he took revenge on those who betrayed him. So, he didn't bother to convince Wilfred anymore and thought to help him from the sidelines.

"Beck, send him to Silverstone town with the help of your winged white lion."

Since Lucas and Beck came to the wilderness to train and tame some spirit beasts with great potential, they can't go back to Silverstone yet.

At the same time, it was not convenient for them to protect Wilfred in the wilderness as anything can happen at any time.

"Yes, young master."

Beck nodded her head and ordered Ada to safely bring Wilfred to Silverstone.

"After entering the town, just focus on recovering your strength."

Lucas said those words before sending Wilfred away on the back of the white lion.

"Young master, what are our plans now?"

Once they sent Wilfred away, Beck asked Lucas about their next steps.

"We will resume our plans to enter the early grounds and tame one or two good spirit beasts."

With a slight smile on his face, both Lucas and Beck rode the blackwind panther into the Earl grounds.

Time continued to pass as both Lucas and Beck hunted the spirit beasts and increased their strength.

After seven days.

'Puchi'

'Huf Huf'

Lucas pierced the rank 2 vampire dagger into a tiger-like spirit beast as he breathed heavily.

'Ding,

          The host's mastery over the short swords has reached the general rank.

'Ding,

        The host successfully became a quasi-general knight. Please sacrifice a rank 4 spirit beast to become a General knight.

It took Lucas seven days to increase his strength from tier 3 to quasi-general knight and during these seven days, another good happened to him.

It was that the vampire dagger upgraded to rank 3 weapon and unlocked a skill.

'Ding,

        Weapon skill:- Blood pill.

        Use:- After the vampire dagger absorbs its prey' blood, a part of the energy from it will be condensed into a pill called 'Blood pill'.

'Ding,

        Pill name:- Blood pill.

        Grade:- A special grade

        Effect:- 1) Removes the negative effects from the consumer' body.

                    2) +1 percent chance to gain one of the traits of the spirit beast from which the blood was absorbed.
