After the explosion that covered the lake settled down, Aether ground his teeth.
..Damn!
Because he cared about his reputation more than anything, he was able to build up an immunity to when people mocked him. However, this ti, he couldnt help but curse.
His armor was burned black, and it looked like it might fall apart any mont.
If not for his light property, which gave him resistance to fire, he might have actually been in big trouble.
Anyone left? How many people are safe?
As Aether shouted through his connection with them, his subordinates started to appear one by one.
All of them were injured. There were even so who were barely alive. And there were only 3 of them.
Including himself, there were a total of 4 people. Nine people ca, and 5 people died. Among them, there were a few who were as powerful as high rankers.
The amount should have been more than enough to catch Galliard and Brahm.
However, it was all ruined because of soone that suddenly appeared. If only their guards werent downhe couldnt help but think of what would have happened.
But it had already ended up like this.
Even if they attacked Brahm now, he wasnt sure if they could win with a force like this.
He hadnt felt this angry since he was targeting Heaven Wing.
Crunch.
His tightly clenched fists were trembling. His veins were popping out.
Aether began to seriously contemplate whether he should turn back like this.
If he did, he could co back after gathering more forces again. Since he knew about the newcors skills sowhat, he was confident that he wouldnt lose again.
But if he did that, he would be looked down on by others for losing to a player that wasnt even a ranker.
Although the guy was soone who was skilled enough to be ranked the sa as Allforone on the 21st floor, there were so families who would try to hold this as a weakness against Aether.
I cant get caught.
There was only one choice that Aether could make. He would have to use the resources he had at hand to hold Brahm down and kidnap the Dragon Human nad Sesha.
Sesha was the only dragons descendant left in the Tower, other than the Sumr Queen. If they could have the genes of the highest of the Superior species, the Elohim would be able to expand.
They would beco a step closer in renewing the Draconic species again.
But his head was filled with questions about how he would do it. Brahm alone was enough to fight against Aether, and if Galliard and the Hoarder fought alongside him, things would get complicated.
..Damn.
There was only the option of resting for a bit and looking for a blind spot later. When Aether turned around to look at his subordinates
What are you going to do in that shape?
He heard a familiar voice. Aether narrowed his eyes, realizing the owner of the voice. A woman quietly landed through a green portal.
She looked exactly like Aether, but her overall atmosphere was different from Aethers.
Hera of the Day. The two were twins, but the path they took was completely different, so their fate was different as well.
What are you here for?
Cant you see?
Im here to help my useless brother.
If youre trying to joke..!
Does this seem like a joke to you?
Hera lightly flicked her finger. As she did, several portals opened around her, and about 30 people appeared.
They were all from species that were hard to find in the Tower. They were all people who followed her.
I think this is enough to fill in the empty spots. What do you think?
Hera rubbed her finger on her seductive lips and smiled.
Aether clenched his fists.
Are you trying to steal my accomplishnts?
No way. How could siblings do that? Steal. Im just saying Ill help you because it seems too hard for you to do it on your own.
..
Aether shut his mouth. He didnt want to take her help because of his pride, but reason was telling him that he should.
Restoring the Draconic species. There was nothing more satisfying than this to the Elohim.
With the restored dragons, they would be able to take the Sumr Queens winning card and catch Allforone to control the demons that were above him.
Especially during this ti when it was almost completely confird that the Sumr Queens Dragon Heart was destroyed. They couldnt miss this good ingredient. Hera was trying to take part in this.
If there was a problem, it was that Aether would be in Heras palm.
This was the only choice he had. Because he said he would get a dragon specin, he couldnt back down now.
Heaven Wing. If only he had the corpse of Heaven Wing Cha Jeong-woo, who had the blessing of the ancient dragon Kalatus, he wouldnt have to suffer this humiliation.
lightsvl m However. He quickly made his choice, as there was only one option.
Fine. Lets work together. But the honor of the accomplishnts is 5:5.
Heras eyebrow slightly twitched.
Why? For soone who cant do anything without ? How can you be that confident? 3:7.
Humph! If you dont want to, go away. Since only I know about where Brahm is. Or why dont you go through the rest of the stage with your subordinates to search?
Aether crossed his arms and sniggered.
Also, theres no way you dont know about the transmutation circle that Brahm is making. If I cant have it, Im just gonna throw it away.
He was saying that he would refuse to work with her, so Hera had to take a step back.
Fine. 4 to..
7 to 3. Im 7, youre 3. Like I said, you dont have to do it if you dont want to. There are a lot of people wholl do it since the situation already turned out like this. Ill just take the disapproval. If I can just get the specin, I can redeem myself.
Hera ground her teeth. He was really stubborn on things like this. That was probably why he was able to think his way out of the nice Arthia.
If I cant, Ill have to use another way.
Hera concealed what she was thinking and looked down at the ground like she gave up.
Fine. Ill do it. Where are they?
Theyre..
Aether nad a place that was completely unexpected. Heras eyes slightly widened.
***
Brahm and Galliard returned after Yeon-woo fed Sesha and put her to sleep.
She wasnt as wary of him any more, thanks to the snack. They talked about this and that. He learned that Sesha was a child who liked to talk.
She looked like an adorable angel, sleeping like that.
Is she sleeping?
Yes. I gave her a snack, and she seed to like it.
Thats a relief. I wasnt able to prepare a snack for her.
Brahm faintly smiled, putting his tools down. The sll of magic emanated from him. He had probably just strengthened the magic around them.
Then from now, Ill watch Sesha. You can leave and pick so purple Devil Flowers.
Brahm pulled out his subspace pocket as he spoke.
Yeon-woo smiled bitterly as Brahm asked him to bring the hidden piece that he had been searching for.
Well, since Brahm was an outstanding alchemist, there was no way he wouldnt know about the effects of the Devil Flower.
So thats why I couldnt find purple Devil Flowers in the forest. Did Brahm take most of them?
It seed the hidden pieces that he needed would be taken from him.
I apologize, but I need the purple Devil Flowers as well.
Brahms eyes slightly flashed. Then, he stuck his lower lip out.
Are you planning on growing the blessing of demons?
Yeon-woo lightly clicked his tongue. He only ntioned a simple ingredient, but Brahm realized what he was trying to do right away. He probably wouldnt be able to hide anything while he was here.
Since a long ti ago, the Draconic species and the demons were enemies.
The Draconic species, who tried to understand the different laws of the world and tried to blend with them, and the demons, who tried to deceive the law and do whatever they wanted. Fundantally, they couldnt get along, and they had an enmity between them for ages.
But also, because of that, the two were healthy ingredients for each other.
The Draconic species could swallow demons to purify their magic, and the demons could eat the Draconic species to improve their mana.
The deeper each others blessings were in their genes, the more powerful they ca, and the more light their magic power was able to shine.
And even though Yeon-woo couldnt catch a demon, he knew a shortcut that would have the sa results.
Purple Devil Flowers are perfect for the Demonic species to grow in. The more demonic energy is put in, the better it is for the Dragons Blessing.
But that only worked for pure Draconic species.
Even after awakening, I couldnt just swallow the Devil Flower since I was still half human. It could make you sick.
So I needed sothing to refine it. The person that helped at the ti was Bayluk.
When his brother was clearing the 23rd floor, he was causing an uproar in the Tower. To be exact, it was his brother and Arthia.
Because of that, nurous clans were on their guard against them, so the mbers needed to find thods to quickly increase their powers.
Anti Venom, Bayluk, had researched a way to help his brother at this ti.
He looked for a way to learn the blessing of demons, and what he found was the purple Demon Flowers.
The objective was to refine the demonic energy so the Dragon Body could easily absorb it.
And another ingredient was needed to lessen the poison of the flower.
The heart of the Ceratopsian Dinosaur of De Roy Lake.
But Brahm had already been able to tell what he was trying to do with just a few words.
That ant he already knew about the effects of the purple Devil Flower.
How did you know?
Because Im doing the sa thing.
Yeon-woos eyes beca bigger.
Brahm waved his hand like it was nothing.
As you can see, Sesha isnt proficient at using the magic power of dragons. Its one of the limits of being a Quarter. So Im refining Devil Flowers to raise the level of her magic power.
Yeon-woo nodded his head. He understood why Brahm had stayed on the 23rd floor for so long.
But its a relief that we wont clash.
I dont understand.
What youre looking for is ones with concentrations that are at least 4, right?
Yes.
Yeon-woo nodded his head.
But what Im looking for are those with concentrations of 3 or less. Because the higher the concentration, the more sick you can be. So you can have the ones that are too strong, and bring the weaker ones here.
Brahm crossed his arms and smirked.
Were overflowing with the more concentrated ones anyway.
..?
They had excess Devil Flowers? He thought the flowers were sothing that you would be lucky to find even a single one of.bender
Follow Galliard. Hell explain it to you.
Galliard frowned like he was annoyed, but he sighed. What power would a guest have? If the owner said to do it, there was nothing else he could do.
Galliard told Yeon-woo to follow him and left the cottage. Yeon-woo thought Brahm was joking and followed Galliard.
But it didnt take too long for him to realize that Brahm was being serious.
