*Autonomous Clones*
That was the blessing Luis just received and was testing right now.
"Try using more aura when you activate your clone blessing, this ti, twenty percent for each." Zira said
Luis did the sa as before, imagining himself standing beside him on both sides. Two beams of translucent aura shot out of him, from his left and right halves. The energy moved to his sides until it took form.
Then Zira spoke, "Now, Luis, your clones are not able to use blessings like yourself; you can’t see what they see, hear, feel, or anything, you can only give them commands."
"How long they follow the command depends on the aura in them because they slowly lose aura over ti, and even if they are not doing anything, they lose aura. One of the best things about this blessing is that if you give them a command, they will act on it the way you would have when you first made them."
Zira looked at Luis’s face, seeing that he understood what she was saying, but still looked a bit confused at the sa ti.
"Let give you an example, Luis, let’s say you’re in a fight or spar. While fighting, you would co to understand that when your opponent uses aura, they are really bad at using it to protect their abdon, so you start targeting that."
"But if instead of you fighting, you had made your clone fight, and only given it the command to fight. It would not have found the weak spot. The clone doesn’t think for itself. It fights and does commands based on how you would have fought. How you would have blocked a punch and kick, but unlike you, It would not be able to take notice of opponents’ weaknesses, just dodge or block based on how you would have dodged or blocked. If you didn’t know any of the opponent’s traits. It’s how you would have instinctively reacted. Basically, your clones behave the way you would have when you made the clones; they don’t evolve beyond that and don’t do anything other than commanded."
Elena then chid in, "Luis, your aunt Sera actually has the sa blessing. She can help teach you how to use it. The Xoliti clan deity also gave her the blessing since she helped out both the Xoliti and Phoenix clans."
"Aunt Sera also has the blessing?" Luis asked
"That’s right, Your Aunt Sera could only inherit about a hundred blessings. Her parents and their parents never had more than that. The kingdom she used to be in all used to get the sa blessings, depending on their family. Which led to you having to have a job that was similar to your blessings. So when she joined the clan, the Phoenix and Xoliti clan had a few support blessings they helped her get that wouldn’t go against any of her other elental blessings."
Kael then interjected,
"Wait, is it the sa with then?"
"No, in the Phoenix clan, you can do what you want. If your first blessing you are born with isn’t suited for combat, just reach the next tier and either ask to receive a combat blessing from our deity or see if you inherit a combat blessing in a month. The sa applies to the Xoliti clan." Elena responded
Before Luis could ask any more questions, everyone’s head turned as they heard footsteps coming from one of the hallways. Raine entered the living room.
"DAD!" Emberlyn scread while running and jumping on her dad.
He crouched down to catch her, holding and rubbing her head. "How’s my princess doing? Did you miss ?"
"You took longer than you said you would," Emberlyn pouted
"Haha, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it took longer than expected,"
Raine responded in an apologetic tone.
"Hmph," Emberlyn reacted
Raine then lifted her while patting her back.
After standing up, he looked at Renaros, staring in surprise.
"Noah told already, but it’s still surprising knowing you’re alive, Uncle Renaros."
Renaros replied in a grumpy voice,
"What’s with everyone thinking I would have died?"
Raine replied with a smile,
"Well, you were in the Underworld."
"I’m not that weak kid,"
Renaros replied
Raine’s smile grew wider.
"I can tell you’re almost to the next tier, and Luis looks like you got your new blessing, congrats."
"Thank you," Luis replied.
"Oh, right, I have good news," Raine said while walking over to the couch and sitting down, while Emberlyn hugged him and didn’t seem like she wanted to let go.
"What news?" Emberlyn asked.
"We were able to establish a base in the great storm on the Selvarra Continent."
"What’s the great storm?"
Kael and Emberlyn asked at the sa ti before anyone could say congratulations.
"Oh, right, you little ones don’t know."
"It’s a continent fully covered in snow, and in the heart of the continent, a storm rages never never-ending, and inside the storm, you could have multiple kingdoms and still have space for more."
"What happened to all the strong creatures there?" Renaros asked.
"Strong creatures?" Emberlyn questioned.
"Yep, there are strong creatures, Emberlyn, many unclassified and high-tier ones."
"We didn’t fight that much, it was mostly negotiations with the unclassified tier ones. The strong beasts over there were already split into different sides, and with the help of the deity, we were able to join up with one side and bolster their strength to wipe out the other side. We have an alliance with three unclassified creatures in the great storm now. The slow task of earning thier trust over these past decades by the Xoliti clan helped out. They mainly just want resources from different continents through us."
"That’s good, but did they not ask for help with the formation of clans?" Elena asked.
"They have, it is a bit troubleso, we need to find ten humans for each clan. We didn’t let them ask for more in case they changed their mind in the future and betrayed us."
"Wait, what do you an they asked for clan?" Luis asked.
"It’s as I said, Luis, they asked for humans so they can give them blessings and start their own clans just like the Xoliti and Phoenix clan."
"Wait, are Phoenix and Xoliti clan mbers gonna beco a part of their clans then?" Lira asked.
"A few, we will have one person from each of our clan go into one of the new clans. The rest of the mbers will be found from weak kingdoms, where people will gladly want to join an unclassified beasts clan."
Raine replied.
Luis then asked in a curious tone.
""But if we could have just helped unclassified and high-ranking creatures make clans. Why didn’t we do that before to get more allies?"
"It’s sadly not as simple as that. We never know when they might betray us if they get strong, and there are too many strong powers like the four empires, small kingdoms, and other empires in different continents who don’t want new forces to erge that can overthrow their sovereignty. We just didn’t have a choice this ti."
Raine replied
"Let’s just focus on the good news."
Zira said.
"So when’s the plan to move there?"
"We should have another month before everything can be set up to move there," Raine replied.
"Are all of us going?" Emberlyn asked.
"We don’t know yet, we are still deciding, but don’t worry, once a week, when the storm weakens, we can activate portals from the Xolit clan city to the new Phoenix clan base," Raine said.
"Only once a week?" Luis asked surprised
"Yep, only once a week, the storm is too strong, it sses with the aura. It only weakens once a week for a few hours. Different number of hours each ti."
"Now let’s stop idling here, Noah said there’s gonna be a party soon in the city for the Phoenix clan getting a new headquarters spot."
"A party?" Kael and Emberlyn said.
"Yep, now let’s get going to help with the preparations!" Raine said.
