'What The Heck!?'
'System, Why did Kereina gain plenty of stat points?'
[She gained 35 Stat points after reaching her current level.]
[She also got stronger after the battle, Due to her bloodline being awakened]
[While also evolving in the process]
I looked at Kereina and observed her whole body.
'Hm? Now that you mentioned it, I saw black stripes all over her fur.
[It is due to her unlocking the 'Shadow Fox Bloodline']
'System, Is it a high lineage of bloodline?'
[The 'Shadow Fox Bloodline' is a high-level bloodline, It was one of the strongest Bloodlines in the past before the war.]
[But due to her bloodline being diluted by other low-ranked bloodlines, It can only give her a 50% boost, while the other half will be lost.]
I quickly tried to think of ways I can help her have the whole 100% boost of her bloodline.
[The System suggests the host buy the 'Mutated Pill' in the System Shop function]
'Hm?'
'What does it do?'
[It will either help her unlock more of her bloodline or mutate it into something else.]
'Hm? It will mutate? Does it make the bloodline stronger?'
[It's Either having a 50% good and 50% bad chance]
I quickly tried thinking of something else, But I suddenly recalled a particular method a protagonist did in one of the many novels I read.
'System, If I drop my blood on the pill and then feed it to her, What will happen?'
[Calculating...]
[ERROR!]
[ERROR!]
[ERROR!]
[SAVING THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION]
[FORCED SHUTDOWN COMMENCING...]
'...'
*A few minutes later*
[Ding!]
[The System is currently back Online]
'...'
'Uhm? So what will happen?'
[It will have a 120% chance of evolving her current bloodline, While having a 0.001% chance that it will fail.]
'Oh?'
'System, How much is the 'Mutated Pill'?'
[Its Price is 50 shop coins]
'I will buy one...'
[The Host has received the Item, It is currently in your inventory]
I quickly glanced at Kereina while saying:
"Oh? Looks like you have unlocked your bloodline while also evolving at the same time."
Kereina Just tilted her head with question marks floating on top of her head.
"Oh? You didn't know?"
I quickly explained about her evolving, bloodline and how to make it better.
After Explaining, She was excited to have become a lot stronger than before.
I quickly took the pill and sliced my wrist, Blood was dripping. I continued to let the blood drip on my wrist while having the 'Mutated Pill' showered with my blood.
A few seconds later, I feed the pill to Kereina, while also feeding her the Stat Booster Pill.
After a few minutes of silence, The pill didn't work yet, So we decided to sleep and see if it will work after sleeping.
=•Day 13•=
We woke up and found that the 'Mutated Pill' worked. while the 'Stat Booster Pill' has given her a +5 on every Stat she had.
Yesterday before she took the pill, She had a 50% purity of a 'Shadow Fox Bloodline'.
After eating the pill, She currently has a 'Devilish Fox Bloodline'.
'System, tell me the effects of her new bloodline.'
[Devilish Fox Bloodline]
[It's a bloodline of 'Shadow Fox' which was purified by the blood of the devil 'Blake Krause']
[If you have this bloodline, You will deal a 50% bonus damage of any elemental attack you use. While also having a bonus of 5% exp per kill, You will receive a bonus of +1 Stat Points every level up.]
'Oh! that's great!'
After Explaining to Kereina about her new bloodline, we decided to hunt until night.
=•Day 14•=
Kereina had taken the pill and was rewarded with a +5 in all her Stats.
We just continued fighting enemies we can kill while traveling to the Human Continent.
=•Day 15•=
Kereina had taken the pill and was rewarded with a +5 in all her Stats.
We encountered a small tribe of goblins and decided to wipe them out.
=•Day 16•=
The Stat Booster Pill has run out and I decided to not buy them for now.
We just continued our journey the same as usual as there wasn't anything else to do anyway.
=•Day 17•=
While traveling, We discovered a total of 3 ruins that are only 3-6 kilometers away from each other.
We decided to ignore them for now and will visit them soon.
We continued our journey as usual while only stopping to rest every few hours.
While we were having a rest, I was suddenly warned about a potential danger a few kilometers away from us:
[The host should be careful, There is currently a potential danger a few kilometers south away from both you and your companion.]
'Hm?' I suddenly became alert.
'How many enemies are there?'
[There are currently 5 potential enemies, While only 1 of them can become a threat to the host.]
I quickly grabbed hold of my bow, while warning Kereina of the potential danger in our South.
'What are our enemies? Are they carrying anything dangerous?'
[Scanning...]
[The Host doesn't need to worry, they aren't carrying anything that can endanger the host's life.]
'Can you tell me if they are humanoid or not?'
[Scanning...]
[The potential enemies are all humanoid based on the Hosts memories.]
'Hm? are they humans? or elves perhaps?'
[The System cannot give the host any answer to your questions.]
'Looks like we have to find out ourselves.'
"Kereina, Let's hide in the trees while using a darkness spell to hide our presence, though we can't entirely hide our presence, It is still better than nothing."
"We will first observe them know more information, we will only act if they are enemies."
"Do you understand?"
She nodded her head as she was beginning to cast a concealment spell using the element of darkness.
