…..

Leylin observed the Sun Child’s Bloodline imprint on his hand, he has created two of them each on the back of his hand.

Observing the back of his hands, his face could not hide the ecstasy he was feeling.

Complicated runes in the form of a blazing sun occupied the backs of both his hands. The outermost layer was a ring of erupting flames, as if a seal to store the power of the sun in his hands. The immortal embers were very realistic as bright blue flames climbed to his wrist and danced.

With the support from the A.I. Chip and the suppression from the Vermilion flames, Leylin finally moulded the bloodline of the Sun’s Child into a bloodline imprint.

Leylin paid close attention to the bloodline imprints, the imprint looks like a beautifully inked exquisite tattoo with an overbearing grandeur and regal majestic presence to them.

The blood was sufficient to form two imprints. And the modified Fireplume is nourishing these imprints on his hands, altering them in some way as well as strengthening them. They seem to have been upgraded. If he were to activate this suddenly, even a rank 6 wouldn’t be dare to withstand the attack head-on!’

Leylin’s altered Fireplume and the bloodline of the Sun’s Child had some mysterious response to each other, and the bloodline imprint’s power was being nourished and amplified. On an estimation each of these two bloodline imprints was as strong as two all-out attacks from the ancient rank 6 Sun’s Child!

With such a great killing technique with him, Leylin now had something to count on, and was utterly confident in his upcoming plans.

“Time to switch to the next main goal on hand.” Leylin sighed, he really was very busy. He would really appreciate exploring and experimenting for a period of time testing his theories and hypothesis drawn throughout his journey but he is very busy, the moment he got here Leylin was finishing one experiment to another.

Inside the bloodline experimentation lab, Leylin kept walking as he entered another room and currently, he was looking at a body in the breeding pool, a thoughtful expression emerging on his face.

“A.I.Chip, Scan the procedure and preparation of the clones and begin construction!” Leylin commanded.

[Beep! Scan Complete! Constructing the clone’s body! Estimated to be a perfect body of a Morning Star!] The A.I. Chip’s scans and prompts were transmitted continuously.

Leylin new project was trying to create a clone of himself. Generally speaking, such a clone would be a rank below that of the Magi who created it. In order to obtain a clone of a same rank as the main body like Wayde’s the Rank 5 warlock, one required not only time and large amounts of resources, but a certain amount of luck as well.

Leylin wanted to construct a few clones which would ease his work, there are some situation were others couldn’t move and act as freely as himself so, it’s better to have a few clones for his bidding. He is already a Radiant Moon Warlock so, its only fitting to create a few clones.

“Beginning copying of soul imprint!” Two bright beams of light shot out of Leylin’s eyes and into the clone’s…

Half an hour later, the clone’s eyelids suddenly raised, its eyes containing a slight vigour. Energy undulations at the peak of Morning Star began to spread out.

Based on the Heavenly Astrals’ blueprint found in Sky City and flesh that has been added to Leylin’s own body, this clone’s battle prowess pretty decent in the Morning Star level reaching the very peak, with the help and stimulation of A. I. Chip it isn’t something to look down on by even 5-Star Morning Star Magus.

Leylin nodded in satisfaction. Truth be told, such a clone wasn’t very useful. Although they worked when dealing with weak enemies, they were only slight nuisance in front of Radiant Moons.

However, its advantage lay in its simple structure. This type of clone was good cannon fodder that could handle some matters.

[Based on the main body’s spiritual conditions, at most three imprints can be maintained at once!] the A.I. Chip’s voice echoed once more.

“I can at maintain 3 Morning Star ranked clones at a moment, it was good that Lita collected all this materials.” Leylin stroked his chin. He had a certain understanding towards the situation with this kind of clone.

Because truesouls were inseparable, many Magi had clones like this that only possessed a spiritual imprint. Its death would not have much impact on the main body, but on the main body’s death, the truesoul could shift into the clone and successfully revive itself.

Still, this process had its dangers as well. For instance, If someone had taken a Magus’ clones out with them, causing a thorough death by killing the truesoul itself.

This kind of method is not very safe… Legends talk of a way during ancient times to break up one’s truesoul. A clone formed in that way unifies both sides, but they don’t necessarily affect one another. Even if one dies, the other can live on without a hitch. That is true cloning.

But this method also has it’s downside because one is breaking up their truesoul, such a cloning may result in different personalities because of the different environments and experiences. There could even be a situation wherein the clones turn against each other and become enemies. That’s too dangerous.

The technique he was using currently was like that of creating a photocopied substitute. Although it would not have any special abilities, it was better in terms of stability and safety. Of course, another reason for Leylin choosing this method was simply that he had no desire to break up his truesoul even if he has the ability to repair it quickly with the help of sentient force.

All such cloning required was a great amount of material resources and a piece of memory that Leylin could duplicate by using the A.I. Chip. It could be considered a bargain.

The laboratory door opened and Lita walked in with a pleasant surprise, “Leylin! Is the experiment proceeding smoothly?”

Shortly after, she sharply noticed that this ‘Leylin’ was a little different from usual. After being in a daze for a while, Lita then pursed her lips in astonishment, “So, you have created the clones as well.”

“Very smoothly!” ‘Leylin’ smiled. Behind him, another Leylin with a deeper aura walked out, “You could only notice the anomaly because you knew about the cloning experiment, if the clones were at Radiant Moon then you would have definitely been fooled. The spiritual imprint was also very successful!”

“Your Morning Star clone is very good, I think it can match me for a few rounds and I would need to use all my strength to get rid of it.” Lita looked at the Leylin who came out first and her eyes sparkled.

“Hmm The materials for clone were rather high level, I reckon the Warlock Union know about my existence.” Leylin asked as the Morning Star clone nodded towards Lita before turning around and walking out.

“Yes, After I showed intrest to buy the materials for clone they actively made it accessible to me. First the Morning Stars from the war then the Dukes, Your existence isn’t something which can be hidden.” Lita asked probing about Leylin outlook on the situation.

“I never cared or thought about my existence to remain hidden, it doesn’t matter if they know there is someone, they just need to not know who that someone is. Our strength is an insurance which makes many things more easy.” Leylin shrugged, if he wanted to hide he wouldn’t have participated to drove others in the war against Ouroboros Clan.

“The Radiant Moon leaders have invited you to visit and I think they want to join the Morning Star Area keeping your true body there. What is your decision?”

“What’s there to ask honey, they just want to fulfill their own agenda they would never really appreciate or accept us so, let’s keep an amabile relationship with them, but don’t heed them much. In the end only our own strength matters. Have you brought Lancy?”

“Yes, she is here in the training room.” Lita nodded as she opened the gate and invited Leylin. Since, Leylin has decided to not interact actively with other warlock then it’s final, although it wouldn’t please them they don’t have much option. No would be stupid enough to pressure a Radiant Moon who has no affiliation, it’s better to accept Leylin terms and maintain a friendly relationship. The Radiant Moon Magus like Leylin who risen on their own is very rare, mostly the few Radiant Moon in central continent are subordinates of Monarchs supported and reared by the huge organizations.

Leylin looked at her with an indifferent side glance as he started walking towards the Training room.

“Lita.” Leylin called out walking ahead, as Lita was staring at his broad back with an unfocused look.

“Yes!” Lita immediately jolted as she answered.

“It’s time to announce my breakthrough so, prepare a ceremony for my Morning Star Ascension and we would also marry there.” Leylin commanded as his words caused Lita to stay rooted.

“How?” Lita gasped as she looked with bewilderment, she was obviously happy but that is besides the point.

“Haha what happened? Are you that shocked about me knowing what the three Dukes wanted from this little meeting of theirs?” Leylin smirked as Lita shivered.

Just after she left and met with the three Dukes, they asked her to break the engagement with a wastrel like Leylin and rather propagate her ridiculously pure bloodline in a better ancient warlock family. In their opinion Leylin isn’t fit to be her husband and neither is the Farlier Family good enough, even Gilbert wasn’t much in favour of Leylin even though he was his mentor and this relationship may strengthen his tie with Lita.

With this request they wanted her to choose their group, so that they would gain her immensely pure bloodline in their family. Obviously Lita rejected and the three dukes could only hang their head low.

Lita was surprised that Leylin knew about this, obviously he could access her A. I. Chip but as a Morning Star she can feel when Leylin is downloading data from her. She obviously cannot stop it neither would she dare, but she can still feel his presence and this is why she knew that Leylin didn’t access her A. I. Chip. Or it could be that his strength is now so supreme and unfathomable that she cannot even record his presence! either way it goes to show how much progress Leylin has made through his endeavor.

Lita wanted to speak but Leylin cut her off, “You body isn’t strong enough to bear the abrupt rise in the soul force. The vitality is lacking, after the ceremony take my clone and visit Sky City as a honeymoon or something, the Endowing Scepter would be very beneficial for your problems.”

Leylin could obviously use his sentient force to help her but he would rather not do that, when there is a solution right before them and is accessible why would he waste his extremely precious sentient force. He has a lack of sentient force as it is and now he is going to use some more to help Lancy. Lita has already received a lot of grace from him and she should figure this out herself without him spoon feeding her but obviously he would make arrangements for her safety in these risky times where Zegna is out to get them. This also aligns with his own plans.

“The only problem would be a Radiant Moon Magus Stuart under the Monarch. He has some dealings with Zegna but he won’t offend a Radiant Moon for another especially a Warlock, even still I would use the network of Azure Mountain King to contact him and send some gifts for him to stay away. If he gets the message than nice if not then I would just burn the whole Sky City down!” Leylin announced as a savage brute undulation leaked from his body unwittingly although the amount was very small it caused Lita’s back to turn wet from the cold sweat. Leylin wasn’t looking to create trouble but he knows the mindset of those lofty Monarch as well so, he would make sure they know that Leylin Farlier is not to be easily provoked. If push comes to shoke then he would bear his fangs into the central continent, run away and return to slay them later. Surely he won’t want that but no one can say what the future holds for sure.

Leylin looked at his burning and itching bloodline imprint as the duo now stands before the training room and his gaze fall on the blue haired beautiful Lancy.

Leylin couldn’t help but smile kindly as his previous bloodlust vanishes into thin air.
