Ethan stared at the glowing system panel hovering in front of him, his eyebrows furrowed in thought.
"So, I can access the profiles of my followers… but why can't I access mine?" he asked, tilting his head.
[You can access it, Host.]
Ethan blinked. "Then why didn't you tell that before?"
[You never asked, Host.]
His lips twitched.
'…Is it just , or is my system getting cheekier by the day?'
[You are just imagining things, Host.]
Ethan squinted at the floating text, feeling an irrational urge to flick the screen in frustration. But instead, he let out a sigh and shook his head.
"Fine. Show my profile first."
Imdiately, a new panel appeared.

Ethan stared at the screen for a long mont, then exhaled deeply.
"And this is after my stats improved from gaining followers?" He rubbed his temples. "How ridiculously weak was I before?"
No wonder his family had zero expectations of him. His siblings had been monsters at his age, wielding incredible talents and dominating in their training sessions. anwhile, he had been… well, the cute little extra standing in the background.
'Not anymore,' he thought, shaking off his self-pity.
His talent skills were integrated within Heart of Benevolence, aning they wouldn't appear on his profile unless he specifically searched for them. But for now, he was more interested in his first official follower's stats.
"Show i Suzane's profile."
A new panel appeared.
Ethan stared at the system panel in front of him, his mind processing the insane revelation about his maid, i Suzane.
[Follower Profile - i Suzane]
Age: 16
Rank: C
Class: Fla Maiden (uncommon grade)
Talent: Flas (C-Grade), Phoenix Fire (S-Grade, Locked)
Bloodline: Red Phoenix's bloodline (Legendary, Locked)
Attributes:
Strength: C-
Agility: B
Constitution: C-
Perception: C
Mana: C
Intelligence: D
Loyalty: 70%
S-rank talent. Legendary bloodline.
His fingers twitched as he took a deep breath, his eyes narrowing.
He didn't even look at her class, it's just an uncommon grade not even a rare one.
For a normal noble household, discovering soone with an S-rank talent would be shocking enough to cause internal chaos. Even his elder siblings, who were considered geniuses, only had SS-rank potential at best.
But this wasn't just about talent. Bloodlines were different.
"Legendary bloodline… and locked?" Ethan murmured.
The gears in his mind turned rapidly.
He knew how important bloodlines were in determining soone's future potential. The Tower System factored in everything—their talent, experience, mindset, and even their bloodline—to create a unique class tailored to their strengths.
A legendary bloodline ant i could potentially beco a future powerhouse.
But right now, that power was sealed.
And he was the only one who knew.
Ethan tapped his chin thoughtfully. He had gained i's loyalty, but it was only at 70%.
Not enough.
For soone with this level of potential, he needed her absolute trust and devotion.
If i's loyalty ever wavered, what would stop another faction from discovering her true power and taking her away?
"System, how do I unlock her bloodline?"
[To unlock the Red Phoenix's bloodline, a drop of Red Phoenix God's Blood is required.]
[Once awakened, her Phoenix Fire talent will also be fully unlocked and enhanced.]
[If the Host drinks the blood, you will gain Fire Immunity and Phoenix Abilities instead.]
Ethan frowned. A god blood ? Damn
So he had two choices.
1. Use the Red Phoenix God's Blood on i → Unlock her legendary bloodline, boosting her power trendously.
2. Use it on himself → Gain fire immunity and a fraction of the Phoenix's abilities.
"…The first option is clearly the smarter choice," Ethan admitted to himself.
If i beca powerful, it benefited him in the long run. He was not a front-line fighter. He preferred staying in the shadows, planning and ordering others to fight for him.
He needed a strong, unwavering force at his side.
And that ant i had to be more than just a follower.
She had to be one of his generals.
"System, show her personality and ambition."
[Analyzing…]
[Personality: Loyal, but seeks validation. Ambitious but lacks confidence. Strong moral compass but desires strength.]
[Secret Desire: To find a purpose greater than herself.]
Ethan's lips curled into a small smile.
'Ah… I see. So that's what she lacks.'
i wanted strength but didn't believe she was worthy of it. She needed soone to give her that purpose—to believe in her before she believed in herself.
And that soone was him.
"i Suzane… from today onward, you will be my sword."
She would be his main enforcer, his right-hand warrior. He would unlock her potential, and in return, she would be his unstoppable force on the battlefield.
Now… he just had to find that Red Phoenix Blood.
Ethan exhaled slowly, excitent buzzing in his veins. His plans were starting to take shape.
But before he could continue, his thoughts were interrupted by sothing—his system had just casually dropped a ga-changing revelation.
[You can purchase Bloodlines with Karmic Points.]
Ethan's mind went blank.
"…What?"
[You can purchase or create any bloodline using Karmic Points.]
[Creating a unique bloodline is more expensive than inheriting an existing one.]
For a mont, Ethan just stared at the panel.
Then, his eyes widened.
"Holy. F*cking. Mother. Of. Earth."
If anyone had been watching, they would have seen a lazy young master suddenly sit up straight like he had just discovered the aning of life.
"System… you're telling that I can literally create my own bloodline?!"
[Yes.]
Ethan grinned wildly.
"HAHAHA! So what if I don't have a bloodline now? Who cares?! I can literally MAKE ONE!"
He felt unstoppable.
If he used his Karmic Points wisely, he could tailor-make the most broken bloodline in existence.
At this thought He can't help but shout "HELL YESSS"
His shout echoed across the mansion, causing several servants to jump in fright. Sowhere, his mother sighed, already accustod to his antics.
