Chapter 217: Victor’s Dilemma

Victor cursed as he stood up, slowly wiping the blood off his mouth. He looked really sorry with his clothes torn into tatters. Thankfully he held the bead firmly in his hand, or it would have been flung away.

That was a close call, if he didn’t step back at the right moment, he would have been turned into dust too.

He anticipated that Sebastian would have some life-saving treasures. But seeing that b*tch was the last thing he expected.

No, he should no longer call her a b*tch. She was going to become his sister-in-law very soon.

Nope, she will always stay a b*tch in his heart. Even her sis-con big brother Yulian called her a b*tch.

Thankfully this was only a residual trace of her power, which she seemed to have purposely left on Sebastian.

Victor began to walk back in Alpha’s direction while pondering how Sebastian met that girl. Despite her last name, she didn’t belong to the Von Krone family, but to another semi-hidden power.

Victor didn’t know much about her, as he never saw her again. He only learned about her past when he accidentally stepped on her cape in one of the royal library’s corridors, which led to him being sentenced to 500 whips with a steel dragon tendon. It would have killed him 1000 times. Twice with every strike. That b*tch even dared to call him a stinky old fart as the guards drag his sorry ass away.

Thankfully, Yulian saved his life at the last moment.

According to him, after his little sister Lily disappeared, his mother was very angry with his father, blaming him for Lily's supposed demise.

So she returned to her natal family, saying she had enough of the Von Krone crazy traditions.

Some people say she was pregnant at that time, and some say she was not. But the fact remained that 9 months later she gave birth to a b*tch.

As a result, the b*tch was not raised as an heir for the Von Krone family and didn’t undergo their humbling training so she grew up as a spoiled princess in her mother’s imperial family.

As for her power, no one knew how she got it. Victor didn’t expect her to be this powerful this early. And that made him wonder if Sebastian or other scions had anything to do with that. She had a reputation for being very friendly with scions. Was she one of them? No one knew.

Victor reaffirmed his decision to stay low-key. He couldn’t risk exposing his powers at this time, as the world was full of hidden dragons. But the damn fate keeps throwing garbage at him.

Victor was lost in thoughts when he reached the girls. Alpha’s situation had gotten much worse. He could easily tell that she only had a few hours to live. her fingers had already turned black.

“Did you get the antidote, young master?” Theta worriedly asked.

“There is no antidote. That’s what Evan told me, and he didn’t seem to be lying." He said, making Theta gasp, "Suck this.” He told Alpha, making Nightshade who was faking being unconscious open her eyes slightly to see what the pervert wanted Alpha to suck.

It was a torn blood stained piece of cloth. It looked familiar. Victor was putting it in Alpha’s mouth while she glared at him.

“This is Sebastian’s blood, I had to blow a grenade in his ugly face for such a tiny amount.” Victor sighed. This cloth was Sebastian’s sleeve which he used to wipe the blood off his mouth.

Alpha frowned but began to suck on the cloth while glaring at Victor.

“Sebastian has an eternal body, his blood might be able to fight the poison that reached into your organs. Make sure to integrate it with your blood.” Victor explained, making Alpha relax a little then close her eyes and focus on healing.

Slowly her face became less pale. A few moments later, she spat out the now blood-free cloth and began to cough black blood.

“Are you Ok?” Theta asked,

“I need more blood. This is far from enough.” She said in a harsh voice,

“Why isn't it working?” Theta asked,

“It’s my fault. My blood had integrated the blood poison, and my body is producing the poison itself now. I am killing myself, and I can’t do a thing about it.” She said, “Sebastian’s blood had some body-strengthening effect, but it is far from enough.” Alpha said.

“Sadly I can’t go milk that Sebastian anymore… He will be very vigilant.” Victor said as he pondered.

“What then?” Theta asked as she squeezed her little hands. She believed in her young master.

“There is a solution…. But it is risky.” Victor said as he took out the bead. He had expected all of these, “Oh… Do you have Sebastian's ring?” He asked.

Alpha pointed with her eyes to her pocket. Where Victor found the ring.

“Did you get this?” He asked Nightshade, who quickly closed her eyes, feigning being unconscious again.

Victor sighed as he shook his head, he quickly used a talisman to break the ring's defense and open it. Others can’t do it, but with his authority, this was a piece of cake.

The ring was full of GEMs and treasures, but Victor didn’t care about those. He quickly found some notebooks and began to flip through them until he found an untitled page in a dirty notebook. It had a lot of scribbles. However, in its corner, there were some specific symbols. They looked similar to the ones Sebastian used earlier, but a little different… That bastard was fooling him.

Earlier, he disguised himself as Sebastian and talked to Evan, who told him about the poison having no antidote. Victor suspected as much, Alpha was destined to die, how can an antidote exist?

Most of those men were created with monster remains. There is no way the Von Zwei family would have an antidote for every one of their poisons.

Giving Victor that info, Evan lost all his importance and earned himself a needle in the back.

After that, Victor decided to go after his real target, Sebastian. He had to get the info about using the bead from him, as it was meant for him, and Victor believed that fate would have already shown him the way. He was right. So he gave Sebastian a stone and fooled him into binding it.

Being someone who can read rune symbols, Victor could tell easily that the ones Sebastian was drawing were authentic but not complete. Victor could repair them easily, but he had to make sure that there were no extra steps… Now reading it in the notebook, he realized that Sebastian was purposely hiding one last symbol. With it, Victor could easily read this. It was an ownership and soul transfer. This array will transfer the bead into the soul realm of the binder.

Yes, the bead was his original plan, he went to scam Sebastian to tell him how to activate it as he didn’t believe that giving Alpha Sebastian's blood would be enough to heal her. It was just a step to increase the probability of the bead working on her.

As for using the bead to empower himself, Victor did consider it, but saving Alpha was a priority… and he was very wary of it, as appraisal didn’t work on it. He would never integrate unknown things this his soul.

Alpha was his blood slave anyway. All of her belong to him.

He took out some tools, punctured his finger, and using a brush that he washed in alcohol, he began to draw the symbols array on the bead. His handwriting was different from Sebastian's scribbles, His symbols were more elegant and refined. They had a purple sheen that made them magical.

After finishing, he began to draw the same symbols on Alpha’s body. She didn’t resist, just blushed and looked away… He had to touch many sensitive parts.

“What will this do?” Alpha asked, hiding her embarrassment.

“It has something to do with Sebastian’s eternal arts. That’s all I know.” Victor said, “Hopefully after this, you would completely heal, and hopefully turn into a loli so that I might be able to give you the love you missed as a child.” He said.

“F*ck you,” Alpha replied in a soft voice… She couldn’t think of a more suitable answer.

Victor chuckled, finishing the operation. He formed a strange symbol in his hand making the bead begin to shine. No turning back now.

Victor watched as it levitated in the air and then began to head in Alpha’s direction. Straight into the spot between her eyebrows where it shattered then the green leaf-shaped flame in it entered Alpha’s body.

Theta and Nightshade nervously watched as Alpha closed her eyes and then opened them widely as a green light beam shot into the sky. Slowly she began to float in the air as her body began to shine.

Victor quickly activated his disguise skill to the limit to hide the natural phenomena.

“Theta, Nightshade doesn’t resist. Let the energy enter your body.” Victor said this energy had a lot of vitality. He should have taken Alpha back to the mansion if he knew she would waste all of this energy.

Nightshade was surprised he knew her name… No one knew her name. How did he do it?

She didn’t flow that thought as her body began to feel strange, it was as if it were on fire… Something was crawling in. She wanted to resist, but remembering Victor’s words, she hesitated, then decided to risk it.

She let the energy enter her body, and to her surprise, her body began to heal slowly. Her charred hand, lung, and throat were getting better.

Then something strange happened. A dried drop of blood in the corner of her mouth, began to get scolding hot, resonating with the energy.

That drop of blood slowly dripped through her injured throat and entered her bloodstream where it mixed with her blood. It all happened in a mere second, she only felt her blood boil as that drop mixed with it. … She screamed.

Victor, who was watching Alpha, turned to her and opened his eyes wide in surprise. What the hell was happening?

She was shining with white light as two horns grew from the top of her head. Her bloodline was awakening, but why?

He quickly thought of something and took Sebastian's ring. On it, there was also a small drop of blood… Sebastian’s blood was acting as an antenna, it was capturing the energy and transferring it to her blood!

After hesitating for a split second Victor licked it.

The drop of blood entered Victor’s body and began to activate under the influence of the energy. But unlike Nightshade, Victor didn’t let it enter his bloodstream, he left it in his stomach. He couldn’t risk awakening his bloodline. He was only using it, to help him capture the energy.

Theta, who didn’t have eternal blood, could only use the available energy to heal herself. Victor didn’t want her to awaken her bloodline yet, as he also plans to upgrade it for her.

Alpha on another hand, despite appearing majestic, was in a hell lot of pain. She was burning in that green flame.

Her body was being torn apart and reconstructed, Millions of times every second… Her bloodline awakened, but she didn’t care as she realized the huge opportunity she had got.

Victor was right, Sebastian’s eternal blood which he took 30 years to cultivate was important for this. It was multiplying and storing the energy inside of her, allowing her to regulate the energy output and direct it as she wished. If it were not for it being integrated into her body, she would have died long ago from the excessive energy.

In the cycles of destruction and reforming, she easily began to reshape her body. The poison was removed bit by bit. Even the spike in her stomach fell off at some moment.

She was fixing everything wrong in her. Bit by bit, cell by cell.

At last, she reached for her soul, for the thing that she wanted to change most in her body… Victor’s f*cking blood which made her his slave.

The energy of the flame was not bound by the system. It easily burnt the slavery symbol itched on her soul as it integrated with it.

Just wait for it. She thought she would make sure to kick that pervert’s ass when this was over. She didn’t plan to kill him, but she would not let him feel any better either.

It was his time to be her slave... Shall she castrate him? No... She might find him useful when she..... WHAT WAS SHE THINKING?
