"Please trust , this is not the ti to explain everything," Keith shook his head, trying his best not to speak more than he should. "However, I need your help. I need you to capture so weak angels. Those one hundred Star Five and twenty Star Ten angels should do."
"Weak?" Kayla repeated, her eyebrows twitching. She had enough of people underestimating their enemies. Just like Tu who calls everyone weak!
"Uhm, please capture them alive once they arrive, or if dead, I need them as fresh as possible!" Keith answered honestly. "Also, it is best if they don't bleed much!"
Hearing that, both Abbadon and Kayla suddenly felt like they had so insights into what was going on!
He quickly rembered Keith's special powers; blood!
"That's why you're nad our Lady's Blood Warden!" Abbadon suddenly realized.
"Uhm," Keith nodded in an elegant manner. A smile was plastered across his face. "In any case, that's all I wanted to say, I'll take my-"
"Hold on," Kayla stopped him. "Take to Calcer. I want to take a look."
She faintly felt that things were not as easy as she imagined at first.
"Okay," Keith didn't hesitate to wrap the duo in his mana as he swiftly disappeared in a shadow of red.
Monts later, Keith, Abbadon, and Kayla were looking at a creepy sea of angel red blood. It was so large that it could cover an entire city. In fact, it was covering an entire city!
This took Kayla by extre surprise. Even Abbadon was caught off guard.
This city was supposedly abandoned before the war. However, it was close to another high populated area. That ant that angels were always around this place.
Needless to say, that was like food delivery for Keith, and he definitely took full advantage of it!
"What is that?" Kayla could not help but ask in a dreadful manner. She looked at Keith as if she was seeing him for the first ti.
He could not help but scratch his cheek in embarrassnt. He didn't know how to explain...
Abbadon didn't comnt at first, but he suddenly stared at the center of the sea of blood.
A small figure that was sitting there quietly, red blood made his figure hazy, even for Abbadon's Demon Eyes.
Upon further inspection, Abbadon could not help but narrow his eyes. "That's Calcer… and he has already reached the rank of Star... Five?"
Kayla looked again as she widened her eyes.
"What are you doing, Keith?" Kayla asked seriously.
*Sigh*
"It's simple really…" Keith said in an awkward tone before getting serious. "This is one of my old techniques, it's called Immortal Blood Mantra."
"A technique? You an skill?" Kayla asked. "Immortal Blood Mantra?"
"No, it's a technique," Keith repeated. "A technique is sothing that can be practiced by others, while a skill is sothing specific to yourself."
It's not that Kayla didn't know what a technique was, but she was simply too surprised that Keith had sothing like this.
Seeing that, Keith continued. "To be honest, this technique is not sothing that I created… it's just that it was very similar to my own skills and practice that I beca proficient in it so quickly."
"Oh, where did you get it from? Is it safe? Can Calcer practice it without any side effects?" Kayla asked one question after the other.
"I… *sigh* first, let say that I'm not sure whether it's safe or not, especially for Calcer," Keith answered with a sigh. "From my own experience, this technique can ss with a person's personality.
"However, I believe that Calcer can withstand its effect because of his natal talent with blood and the souls given by Lady Raven.
"With that being said, he is even nad by our mistress, so he can't disobey her orders. Not to ntion that we don't have any other choice…
"Although I have started using this thod on Calcer simply as an experint, I didn't expect him to achieve such results.
"The technique is rather complicated and it is not easy to understand. However, I can say that The Immortal Blood Mantra has three main premises.
"First, one must absorb the energy stored in the blood.
"Second, one needs to disregard the impurities stored in the blood.
"And third and last, one needs to disregard their original body and beco one with the blood!"
"This seems so ominous…" Kayla could not help but comnt.
"Uhm, it's considered an evil technique…" Keith said slowly. "We're lucky that Calcer is a blood imp, it's perfect for him. He can even quicken his own evolution and ranking!"
"Keith," Kayla ignored his last words that seed to be rather enthusiastic and looked him in the eyes. "Where did you obtain such a technique?"
"That… I- I have actually gotten it from a planet that I destroyed…" saying that, he lowered his head in sha.
"You were an angel, right?" Asked Abbadon. It's not like it is a secret anymore. The feeling he was giving off was too special to be random.
Kayla didn't seem to be surprised, but her face was uncontrollably cold. Keith didn't even dare look her in the eyes.
"Uhm, I was an angel," He confird. "I used to be one of the four Seraphim of the End…"
"What?" Abbadon yelled as he subconsciously got a hold of Keith's neck. "Repeat what you just said slowly."
*Sigh*
"The four Seraphim of the End are responsible for judging mortals," Keith explained with a sigh. "Any creatures on any planet that have committed sins, ti and ti again, will incur the heavenly punishnt of the four. Countless years back, that's what I believed in…"
"Countless years ago, huh?" Abbadon looked at him strangely.
Before becoming Raven's subordinate, Keith was Abbadon's faithful servant. He thought that he knew his subordinate well, but apparently that wasn't the case...
Abbadon wanted to ask many questions, yet he held himself. It wasn't ti for this.
"Go on!" He simply instructed Keith.
