1.5-Overpowered Bloodline?

Zellrith found himself in the middle of a dense forest, surrounded by towering trees whose branches seemed to stretch up to the sky. The night was pitch-black, and the only source of light was the dim moonlight that filtered through the foliage, casting eerie shadows all around. He was standing there, dazed and disoriented, wondering how he had ended up in this strange place.

Just then, Zellrith found himself being held tightly in a hug by Tessaria, who was inadvertently suffocating him with her breasts.

"Nont a Baf wave toh die," he said with a smile on his face and no resistance whatsoever to his imminent suffocation.

"Aaaah! I'm sorry! Are you ok?! Tell me if I'm being too brutish with you! I have a hard time controlling my strength... And I would be very mad if I accidentally hurt you. So, you ALWAYS have to tell me, ok?" Tessaria narrowed her eyes with a serious expression, and two of her arms crossed while the other two were holding him, no longer suffocating him.

"I mean, it was not a bad experience, and I'm fine," Zellrith smiled.

"Aww, you're too precious... No! I can't be distracted! You have to tell me if I do something that hurts you, understood?!" Tessaria had stars in her eyes as she looked at his smile, but shook her head and cemented her point.

Unfortunately, as she was doing so, she put too much pressure on Zellrith's body, hurting him in his arms.

"... Y-yeah... I'll tell you... Fuck!" Zellrith, who was containing his pain, accidentally let out a bit right after agreeing to tell her.

Seeing this, she put him down before sighing.

"You really need to stop doing this! Or I'm not talking to you again!" Tessaria complained with a frown and her two sets of arms crossed.

"I see... There is only one solution... I have to become so strong you could never physically harm me, no matter how hard you hug me," Zellrith decided.

"Hehehehe... Too precious! You made me want to hug you to death! Awww! Ok... Relax, Tessaria... You'll go overboard if you get too excited." Tessaria started trembling in excitement and almost jumped on Zellrith again.

Just then, Zellrith felt something odd. He felt a sudden surge of energy coursing through his veins, as if he had just been injected with a powerful stimulant.

Having died in those pajamas, Zellrith was still wearing them.

So, he pulled the sleeves back then looked down at his arms and saw that they were completely healed, even though he was pretty sure they should have been bruised.

'What just happened?' he thought to himself.

[Response. Your newly acquired bloodline is helping you.]

'Wait! Wait! Wait! What do you mean, my new bloodline?! Explain!' Zellrith narrowed his eyes with a tired expression.

[Response. The system will impart new bloodlines to the host whenever a new verse is visited.]

'... Cam! you little!... Sigh... Ok, so I have which new bloodlines?' He asked after giving up being mad at the situation.

[Response. Only one, and the system has decided to classify it as Demon (DS) bloodline, it provides you with various abilities, such as immortality, accelerated regeneration, high stamina, high endurance, accelerated growth, and high physical capabilities among others.

[The bloodline percentage of the demon bloodline, luckily for you, won't go down naturally. Aside from that, sunlight will cause you high discomfort, Nichirin blades or equipment will be more effective against you, and a plant named Wisteria has a slightly poisonous effect on you.]

'That's not very great... I mean the abilities aren't bad, but this sounds dangerous... Also is there a way for me to know or see these things, I think I'll be able to just remember.' Zellrith questioned.

[Response. You access to the status option, which will allow you to see your information.]

'... Show me.' He ordered, and a new floating screen came up.

'Hum.. What is the +12 besides my level?' He asked.

[Response. It is the total of bonus levels provided by your bloodline, so you are as powerful as a level 12.]

'... How strong is a regular demon?' He inquired.

[Response. Almost twice as strong as you, around an average of 80 for their physical stats, at about level 27.]

'Wait... aren't I a little broken, then?' He narrowed his eyes as he thought.

[Response. Every bloodline provided by the system is an Omicron variant, meaning they are the prime and ultimate version of that bloodline.]

'That's actually great... Oh, and now that I think about it, weren't you supposed to give me a mission?' He asked.

[Response. When the time comes a mission will be provided.]

Having received his answer, Zellrith couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by the sudden realization that he had gained a new bloodline and all the abilities and weaknesses that came with it. He looked back at Tessaria, who was still jumping around and giggling at their previous conversation.

"Tessaria, I have something to tell you." He said, trying to get her attention.

"What is it, Zell?" Tessaria asked, still bouncing around.

"I... I think I've gained a new power." Zellrith said, unsure of how to explain it.

"A new power? What kind of power?" Tessaria asked, her expression suddenly becoming serious.

"I have a bloodline, it's called Omicron Demon, and it gives me all kinds of abilities. But... it also makes me weak to sunlight,a specific plant, and special weapons called Nichirin blades." Zellrith explained, hoping she would understand.

Tessaria's eyes widened in surprise, and she took a step back. "That's incredible! But... are you okay? Do you need anything?"

Zellrith shook his head. "No, I'm fine. I just need to learn how to control my powers and be careful around sunlight and certain weapons."

Tessaria nodded, then suddenly grinned. "Hey, let's test out your powers! Maybe you can do something cool!"

Zellrith hesitated, unsure if he was ready to try out his new abilities, but Tessaria's enthusiasm was infectious. "Okay, let's give it a try."

Tessaria clapped her hands in excitement. "Yay! Okay, what can you do?"

Zellrith closed his eyes and concentrated, trying to tap into his new bloodline. Suddenly, his body began to glow with a faint, purple light, and he felt a surge of energy coursing through him.

"I think I can heal myself, and... maybe manipulate flesh?" Zellrith said, unsure if the system was actually correct.

Tessaria's now starry eyes widened in amazement. "That's incredible! Can you show me?!"

Zellrith hesitated, but then lifted his hand and focused his energy on it. Slowly, his hand began to stretch and morph, turning into a long, tentacle-like appendage. Tessaria gasped in awe as she watched the transformation.

"That's terrific! Can you do it with other body parts?" Tessaria asked, still amazed.

"Seems to be the case." He answered as he had a new mouth open on his cheek.

Tessaria stepped closer to look at it in amazement, but then laughed. "Wow, That's amazing! Is this what demons can do... Pretty crazy..."

Zellrith nodded and said, "Yeah, it's pretty cool. But I also have weaknesses, so I have to be careful."

Tessaria nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll protect you."

Zellrith smiled and said, "Thanks, Tessaria. You're a good girlfriend."

Tessaria blushed and said, "You're welcome. You're a good boyfriend too."

With a smile, Zellrith observed Tessaria and noticed for the first time that she had two swords attached to her waist, one on each side, as she surveyed the area.

"Are you a swordswoman?" He inquired.

But instead of an answer, Tessaria lunged at him with both blades in hand, moving so quickly that Zellrith struggled to keep up.

*Clang!*

Their swords clashed, and Zellrith was pushed back slightly by the force of the blow that landed just above him.

Tessaria had just blocked an attack from an unknown swordsman who had attempted to take down Zellrith.

"Two demons for the price of one! Monsters like you deserve to burn in hell! Focus! FOCUS!" The swordsman seemed to draw upon an inner reserve of strength, pushing Tessaria away and charging at Zellrith, who was caught in the middle of the fray.

Without a second thought, the swordsman slashed at Zellrith's neck, severing his head from his body. However, Zellrith was able to quickly use his <Flesh-Manipulation(H)> to move his head to his back, almost instinctively, before allowing himself to fall to the ground.

"Just one down," the swordsman proclaimed, but before he could celebrate, Tessaria swiftly decapitated him.
