When I reach the capital, I imdiately find Lucas waiting for in front of his manor. Which still looks the sa as the last ti I saw it. Along with the vampire lady serving him.
Although the vampire lady doesn't look the sa. In fact, she looks rather… ragged. Like soone put her through a lot.
And for so reason she tenses up the mont she sees . Tenses up with fear.
Then again, I'm used to people looking at with fear in their…
Oh, right.
I forgot.
I kind of killed the Lord of Vampires, so…
And she's a vampire.
h. Whatever.
Not my problem.
As for her looking ragged? I think I heard sothing about Mom visiting and pulling this vampire lady away for a mont to talk. One on one.
Probably sothing about how the vampire was trying to get with Lucas or sothing.
Mom probably didn't take kindly to that.
My gaze turns back to Lucas as he says, "Welco to my humble abode, Lexi!"
I nod my head at him and state, "Hello again." Then I ask while putting my hands in my pockets and landing on the ground from the air, "Mind if I stay at your manor for a while? I'll be hunting corrupted creatures in this Block for a little while. Until a Tier 5 dungeon is found, at least. Or it runs out of corrupted creatures."
"Go ahead and stay for as long as you'd like!" Lucas says with a wide smile on his face, the man fidgeting a little bit like he wants to hug or sothing. But I ignore that. "And if you don't mind, would it be alright for to join you on so of your corrupted creature hunts?"
That question gives pause for a few seconds before I eventually shrug and answer, "Sure. If you can keep up." Making his face instantly light up like a lamp. "Although you probably won't be getting many kills if you follow ."
Now that gives him pause. Until he looks at his terminal and sees news of what I did, which makes him blankly stare at it with his mouth agape.
It takes him a few seconds to answer, ignoring the stupefied look on the face of the vampire – who also just saw news of what I did – as he does so, "Well, it'll still give so ti to catch up with you. So I'd still like to join you."
"Alright then," I state with a light shrug. "It's up to you."
He smiles and asks, "Would you like the sa room you took the last ti you were here?" Only to continue after seeing nod, "I have so work to do now, but you can count on Selene to help you with anything you may need."
I nod my head at him again, following which he leaves. Then I look at the vampire in question to find her shivering in fear.
"Just to clarify, are you afraid of because of the Lord of Vampires, or because of my mom?" I ask out of curiosity, just for her to flinch twice in that sentence. Once when I state the words 'Lord of Vampires' and once when I state the word 'mom'.
Hmm. Right. So it's both then.
No wonder she looks like her legs are about to give way.
An unpleasant mory resurfaces from the past when soone else was terrified of and ended up losing control of their bladder. Sothing I don't want to see happening again.
Good thing vampires are considered undead and don't have those bodily functions.
Anyways, the vampire manages to guide over towards my room before she goes and waits outside the door, ntioning sothing about a bell in the room that I'm supposed to ring if I need her. Not that I plan on ringing it.
Honestly, the only reason I need to stay here is to rest up. And I don't actually need food or drink anymore, so there's not really any reason to call for her.
With that thought in mind, I go ahead and lie down on the rather luxurious bed and begin focusing on my energy manipulation training. Since I still need to deal with that. To catch up my actual training with the level of the skill.
I frown as I think about just how much training it'll take to get the skill to the next Tier. Considering how much I need to train just to get it to catch up to its current level.
Then there's the fact that I'll no doubt have to bring it to the next Tier at the minimum in order to ascend to Ascendant rank. The final Tier.
And considering how hard the requirents I've heard are for reaching Ascendant, I wouldn't be surprised if I had to raise it by two Tiers or sothing.
Actually, it would make sense if that was a requirent. Bringing Energy Manipulation to Ascendant Tier.

Just feels right. Regardless of how long that'll take.
I eventually let out a sigh.
Well, none of this will be of much importance for a while. Seeing as I'm going to have to reach the level cap of Tier 5 before any of this even becos a thing.
And I'm only at the start of Tier 5 right now, in the rock bottom level 1000s. Whereas the highest level of Tier 5 is fucking level 2500. Almost 1500 levels away from where I'm at right now.
This detail combined with the fact that I'm leveling up incredibly slowly due to the lack of any Tier 5 dungeons or monsters makes the idea of planning for my requirents to reach Ascendant Tier rather… early.
Too early.
Not to ntion that I don't even know what the requirents will be for sure. For all I know it might not even have anything to do with Energy Manipulation, even if it most likely will include that amongst the requirents.
I sigh again before focusing entirely on my Energy Manipulation training as Zal begins to give so pointers again.
