Arcane Bloodlines! [Finally Contracted]

"I was not raised for leadership by my father. I was raised to be a scholar. Only my bastard brothers impart to me knowledge about anything like being a prince..." Hael explained, likely the reason for his low charm stats.

"Let's move on to Arcane Bloodlines..." Hael mused aloud, expressing what really piqued his attention the most.

[Arcane Bloodlines.]

Legendary Tier Bloodline: Nine Petal Runes...

A Legendary Bloodline of Legends in the Lower plane and Middle plane, and a common bloodline in the Higher planes. Grants the ability to control Nine Attributes which are closest and dearest to the heart.

Divine Tier Bloodline: Infinity Guardian Bloodline...

A Never before heard bloodline in the Lower planes and Middle planes, and True Bloodline In the Higher Planes. Grants the Ability of Cosmic Guidance. Grants Absolute Mastery of Astral Gods Arcane Abilities.

"I have no understanding of this at all..." Hael mused to himself. This wasn't the power of the Nine petals. And he had no idea of the Infinity Guardian Bloodline at all.

[The truth of these bloodlines is not something within your reach, but I'll try my best to explain them to you...] The system voice resounded in his head as Hael immediately perked his ear up.

[In this Plane of existence as you know it. There are three planes. The Lower planes, the middle planes, and the Higher planes, and in these planes, bloodlines are the next source of power and existence after Mana.

The higher your bloodline grade, the more value your existence possesses to the world or you can better say, the more the reason why you should be allowed to exist!]

"Wow...."

[The Lower planes group their bloodlines into five categories, the Common bloodline, the rare bloodline, the Mythic bloodlines, and the legendary bloodlines. The legendary bloodlines peak it.

And your Nine Petal Ruins is at the Legendary which can be said to be at the peak of these lower planes.]

"No wonder the Winterfall dynasty placed so much importance on my existence, including my father.

He must have been aware of the potential of the Nine petals. A potential that rivals god talent huh?" Hael mused aloud, something that his people had always called him, but never before had he ever believed it was possible to have a potential that rivals that of a god's.

[Calling it a potential that rivals that of a god's might be going too far. Your Nine petals is a really strong bloodline, the strongest it can ever get, but among the gods, it is still a common grade bloodline. Nothing special...] The system replied to him, but he paid not much heed to its words.

Not once had he considered himself a god, nor even thought of becoming one, so the words didn't trigger him in any way.

[Your second bloodline, the Infinity Guardian bloodline, might just fit the perspective of a bloodline rivalling that of a god's.

I'm pretty sure even among the gods, it is special in and of itself, and something that shouldn't be in the lower planes. That is about all I can say about that...]

"Hmm, so you mean, if I'm able to cultivate this bloodline to absolute mastery. Then I should be able to one day have enough power to rival that of a god?" Hael asked, piecing together pieces from the information that he was given.

[Yes.]

'The power of a god. I wonder what level of power that is?' Hael thought to himself in confusion and also in awe.

He didn't know what level of power that would be, but to be called a god, then it definitely was nothing short of a wondrous power level.

"That said, the description says that it allows a person to control one attribute which is closest to the heart. If I have opened my first gate, then what is my attribute?" Hael asked, preparing for the big reveal.

[You should check out your Arcane Masteries to learn that.] It revealed to him as Hael turned to the last attribute panel to check it out.

[Arcane Masteries]

-{Nine Petals Bloodline Masteries:

--Eldritch Transformation-Level 1

Transform into an abominable Eldritch whose existence defies the rules of nature and disregards the natural law of the universe as mortals ever understand them.

Cons:

Inability to remain in the state for long due to incredibly high energy consumption... Produces a very malodorous smell that reeks of death and decay

--Eldritch Magic Manipulation-Level 1

Grants the ability to manipulate one of the most sinister and malevolent forces in the cosmos. A magic that reeks of death and destruction.

Cons: The Eldritch Magic recognizes no one and that includes you!

Looking at the notification displayed with the golden light, Hael had his face currently wrapped in shock and confusion.

"But how? Eldritch magic? I have never heard of that back in Aetheria..." He wondered aloud, as the golden notification panel immediately flickered and another set of notifications appeared.

Your ability to possess the Eldritch magic is due to a recent closeness to one. The Nine Petal Runes work on the abilities which are dearest to the heart.

When you approached that Eldritch that was wounded, your Nine petals were very wanting because right then your gate was opened for an element to be contracted.

Then you helped her, by letting her place her hands on your heart. Your heart wasn't just healing her, Hael. It was an equivalent exchange.

It healed her in exchange for copying the absolute best form of her magic!] The system explained to him as Hael's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"So I can't heal the Eldritches?"

[No, you can't. That case was a rare exception...] The system replied to him.

"And here I thought, I have a race that is willing to allow me in on this alien world..." Hael mused to himself with disappointed eyes. Now his chance of falling back on anything in case of danger was thinning...

"You said it copies the absolute best form of her ability? What do you mean by that?" Hael asked curiously.
