Ves was grateful to learn about the secret of the A7-KE1 General Purpose Pilot Cultivation Elixir.
He initially did not suspect at all that it was basically formed by combining the blood donated by the Fist of Defiance with other miscellaneous reagents!
Perhaps he should have. He had developed a much better appreciation of the power of blood as of late. He had already applied his insights on blood to develop the Carmine System. It shouldn't have been a surprise that the Red Association managed to discover their own uses of this ingredient!
Of course, compared to a single clan leader like Ves, the mechers had access to much more bountiful and powerful sources of blood!
Ves couldn't help but feel jealous towards the Red Association for being able to experiment on the lifeblood of one of the most powerful beings of their civilization.
Though Ves technically had access to a True God as well, the problem was that she was situated in the wrong galaxy!
