Chapter 318: The summoning

“What?” Elise asked nervously, feeling it as Victor jumped from the couch and began to laugh like a maniac. He was scaring her.

“He he…. I might know what’s wrong with you…We need to make sure of one little thing first though…” he said. “I will take a sample of your blood. don’t flinch!” he said as he surprised the girl and pricked her finger… He always kept some needles in his ring, just in case he needed to turn someone into a green goo.

“Why?” she asked as he let go of her hand.

“Nothing…Just a little test to make sure of your bloodline..” he said as he smeared her blood in his bloodline book.

“Bloodline?” she asked, but he didn’t answer as he looked at the book in his hand. In it two pages lit up.

“Yes…” he said as he checked the 2 bloodlines that appeared… Just as his appraisal of her told him before.

Wow… This girl sure has some noble bloodline…. Victor pondered.

Now he was sure of his conclusion.

Sometimes, people get certain bloodline skills and powers before awakening… Like his father, who has some crazy Libido, and Lara who gained amazing regeneration after he upgraded her bloodline last night.

These things are completely random and differ from one person to another.

“What is the problem?” Elise asked.

“Your bloodline has this power… true sight… And something called ethereal sight… You also have some Illusion resistance which seems to have affected this too….”

“... The Irony…” she said. She was blind now after all.

“It is not that… Back then when you looked at the system message, you must have been very agitated right?”

“Well... I … My uncle was… being a little rough…So… I was crying… ” she said in a low voice after some hesitation.

“This might be the catalyst… Anyway, if my guess is right, when you looked at the system message you saw the true letters… A part of them…”

“True what?”

“Those are magical letters that would appear as a language that anyone can read… They are called Base Runes. The problem with those is that you need to see their illusion to understand them…Their real shape or they will appear like random symbols to the untrained eye… “

“You mean this… Blood power made me see their true look and not their intended one?” she asked, not really sure.

“Kinda… You only saw a part of them, but it was enough to ruin the effect they should have had…”

“So.. Anyone can read those? ” she asked worriedly.

“I can… To a certain extent…” he said, not really sure.

“Then…”

“I will need some time…  They are multidimensional symbols you see, what you saw was a projection of just one side, not the real ones.” he said as he pondered on the paper in his hand, “It will take me a few minutes to figure the entire thing out…”

“Oh…” she said as she pondered on what he said earlier.

Victor ignored her and began to work on the symbols.

“So my blood power makes me immune to illusions?” she asked after a few minutes in which Victor had already scribbled a ton of additions to the symbols on the paper she gave him.

“Kinda…” he answered absent-mindedly, focusing on the symbols. They were like a puzzle, and he had to make some guesses.

“Weren’t you using an illusion to show me the wedding earlier? Why did it work then?” she asked.

“Oh…” he paused and looked at her, not expecting her to ask that. “You already knew that it was an illusion and if you searched for mistakes you could have found some…Or… Maybe because you are blind now, you unconsciously chose to selectively see certain things… I am not really sure…” he lied. The real reason she was affected by his illusion was his Authority, which overrides any innate resistance she had.

In truth, Elise was never supposed to see through Tom’s disguise. The only reason she did was that it was the effect of a pill and not Victor’s skill. But he couldn’t tell her that, so he acted as if he revealed the truth to her on purpose.

“Finished…” he finally said finally 30 minutes later.

“Then now what?” she asked nervously.

“I can’t help you solve this quiz or tell you anything about it… But I already decoded these symbols, I will make them appear in front of you as they should have… Make sure to answer it in your mind!” Victor said.

“Oh…”

“Don’t be nervous… Even if you fail, I have a way to make you a player!” he said, rubbing her hair to calm her down. “Ready?”

Elise nodded nervously as in front of her eyes a series of letters began to appear, the real question.

ANSWER :

THREE DRAGONS A THUNDER DRAGON, A FIRE DRAGON, AND WATER DRAGON

THEY FOUND THREE CHAMBER POTS

ONE WAS GOLD, ONE WAS STONE, AND THE LAST WAS WOOD

WHAT CHAMBER POT EACH DRAGON USED.

Victor smiled as he showed the question and looked at Elise who was in deep thought.

This question was a classic… But he couldn't help her. Her thought process is what was getting tested.

Elise frowned as she pondered for a few minutes and then decided on an answer. This was a trick question.

A DRAGON DOES NOT USE A CHAMBER POT TO PEE IN IT BUT TO KEEP IT. DRAGONS COLLECTED TREASURES.

THE THREE DRAGONS WILL FIGHT ON THE GOLDEN ONE AND TOTALLY IGNORE THE OTHER TWO.

THE WATER DRAGON WOULD DESTROY THE FIRE DRAGON WHO WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTACK FREELY, FEARING DAMAGING THE POT

THE THUNDER DRAGON WILL ACT AS IF IT WAS HEAVILY INJURED… THEN WHEN THE SLIPPERY WATER DRAGON TOUCHES THE POT HE WOULD ELECTRIFY IT AND KILL THE WATER DRAGON.

THE THUNDER DRAGON WILL TAKE IT AND USE IT IN WHATEVER MANNER HE DESIRES…

Elise answered, then in the next moment a ray of light shone around her as a menu screen appeared in front of her.

It was gibberish at first, but remembering what Victor said, she quickly tried to adjust her eyesight, and the next moment, some readable text appeared.

Victor, who was using his appraisal skill to watch her, smiled and nodded as Elise slowly opened her eyes and looked at him with a smile. She could see perfectly now.

“Thank you…” she said with tears in her eyes.

“It is my duty… You are my wife after all…”

“Um…” she said as she jumped in his embrace then began to cry.

The last few years were tough on the little girl. And now finally she no longer needed to live in despair.

Victor slowly patted her hair as she hugged him harder. Would he finally get that fabled skill?

Nope, he had to wait for the next girl.

“Now that I took care of you… It’s your turn to watch out for me!” he said after the girl calmed down a little and awkwardly let go of him.

“How?” she said with a heavy blush. Was he going to… to…. She couldn't even look at him imagining what would happen next.

“I want you to keep watch over me as I take this…” Victor said, taking a pill from his ring. The blood-restoring pill Hana prepared for him with the baby blood she got.

“Oh… Just that?”  she asked, pouting a little.

“Don’t be so disappointed… You will be able to watch a good show…” he said, making her blush as she looked away. This bastard was playing with her on purpose.

“What a good show….” she asked finally, but was interrupted as he suddenly hugged and carried her like a princess.

“I can walk now!” she protested with a blush as she looked at him and then looked away. He was too handsome for her loli heart.

“I know…I just like carrying you…” he said as he left the room and headed to the one beside her where the big bathtub was. It was time for him to upgrade his bloodline.

…

“FROM THE DARKNESS WE CALL YOU! DAVITOTHAK!” Lin shouted as she held the celestial fire chicken feather that Victor gave her high.

She was very tired as it took her four hours to fully prepare the summoning circle Victor gave her, and now she was now attempting the summoning even though she had no idea what it was for. She just trusted Victor completely.

She was standing with Lily in the cage room with a wooden table in front of them. On the table, there was a golden parchment and a few lit incense sticks.

“WE CALL YOU!” Lin screamed again as in front of her a strange circle of shining symbols of light began to appear in midair as if it was a portal to another world. A summoning circle.

“WE CALL YOU!” “WE SUMMON YOU!” She shouted and repeated.

Moments later Two dark eyes appeared looking from the circle and peering at Lin as if questioning her.

“WE CONTRACT BY BLOOD… THE OFFERING IS YOURS!” SHE YELLED.

“THIS FEATHER IS THE TOKEN OF OUR SEAL!” Lin said, raising the feather high and then leaving it. It magically stuck in midair, suspended by the magical circle.

“THE ANCIENT PROMISE IS TO BE KEPT, AND THE BLOOD OF THE VIRGINS SHALL BE YOURS!” she said, not really sure what this meant.

The two eyes pondered looking at Lin. It was hesitant. That was until it noticed Lily who was standing behind her. The eyes opened wide in shock then the magical circle collapsed turning into a strange symbol that drilled into the feather that started to burn.

Then, quickly, in one smooth movement, Lin placed the feather onto the parchment then rolled and threw it inside the grand cage then stepped back with Lily according to Victor’s instructions.

The parchment burnt in azure flames that began to take shape… From the darkness, it appeared.

A giant cock…

Literally. It was a huge bright white rooster with rainbow-colored feathers on its head, carefully combed from the left to the right. It was disoriented at first looking around with wise human-like eerie eyes.

Then a moment later it jumped at Lily… Then hit the cage’s iron bar, which stopped it in its tracks.

It reached out its head trying to peck the girls but they were at a safe distance so it could only crow angrily at them.

“Now what?” Lin asked nervously.

“I have no idea…“ Lily said as that thing attacked the cage again angrily.

“Will this cage hold?” Lin asked nervously.

“Yes… The young master… No… Our husband said that it would suffice…” Lily corrected herself.

“Oh… But…” Lin wanted to say something but the rooster attacked again, shaking the entire cage, and making something stuffed above it fall down on its stupid head.

It paused and looked at what hit it.

It was a magazine… On its cover, there were some scantily dressed girls riding a horse in some very lewd way.

The rooster began to crow as it pecked at them, shredding the page and causing more photos to appear. The pages scattered everywhere around the cage showed the rooster some things that it had never imagined possible.

The poor thing almost lost its mind as it began to peck randomly everywhere at the pages and lost itself as it engrossed itself in these ‘educational’ materials.

“Is that thing a pervert?” Lin asked nervously with a blushed face as she calmed down a little. She didn’t dare to look at the magazine after seeing the first page.

“Definitely…” Lily nodded and said. Now she knew why Victor bought those. Thankfully he was telling the truth back then, they were not for his personal ‘consumption’.

“Why is it pecking at the girls?” Lin asked. “Does it hate them?”

“It is not… It is pecking the eyes and the balls of the males in the photo…” Lily, who had sharp eyesight, said. “Even the animal ones…”

“Oh…” Lin, who didn’t dare to look, nodded just when the room’s doors were pushed open, making the rooster turn around and look with threatening eyes at the door and then at the newcomer.

It was a very beautiful teenage girl, who wore revealing clothes and walked slowly making sure to show her perfectly sculpted body.

Lin and Lily frowned and looked at the girl, not knowing who this was… That was until she spoke in her melodic voice.

“WOW… That’s one handsome big cock you have got here!” she said looking at the celestial rooster. “Vivi really wants to touch it!” she added with a bright smile.
