Chapter 305: Aezels Bloodline (1/2)

After those few hours passed, Lawrend opened his eyes to a panting Aezel.

”Ahhh… Hahhh… Hahhh…”

She was on the bed and gasping for air. Her hand was clutching her throat desperately.

”A-Aezel!?” Lawrend exclaimed.

He grabbed her shoulders and looked at her pitiful expression.

”M-Master… I think I overdid it…” Aezel said to him with a faint smile on her face.

”Overdid it? This is more than overdid! You're pushing yourself too far! What did you even do?” Lawrend asked him worriedly as he scolded her.

”My demonic bloodline limits are still there. I-I can't become a Royal Demon, Master…” Aezel said sadly.

Although she was already a fallen angel, she still calls it demonic bloodline, etc. That's because she preferred it. If she knew what it should be called, she would use it in the future.

”What are you saying? I can't understand you,” Lawrend replied.

”Master, hahh… You don't know this, but we demons are predetermined from birth. If we are born a Noble Demon, I would become a Noble Demon once I become an adult,” Aezel replied.

”What? You never told me that before!” Lawrend shouted.

It was something very serious that he should have heard something about it from her. But she didn't, and that upset him.

”I thought that it was only a matter of time before I become a Royal Demon. I can feel that I can push myself further, but it was like I was against an insurmountable wall when I tried earlier. I tried several more times out of pure will, and… this is the result,” Aezel explained.

”Aezel… Tell me how and what happened,” Lawrend replied and took her into an embrace.

He pressed her head against his shoulder and rubbed her back.

”Master…”

Aezel felt warm inside as he embraced her. She felt sad and disappointed in herself that she wouldn't be able to protect him in the future.

”Don't worry. I'll help you figure this one out,” Lawrend said to her.

He wanted to embrace her tighter, but he knew that it would only make it harder for her to breathe.

”I stimulated my bloodline that contained my power and attempted to improve its quality by copying the characteristics of the spell you and the instructors used earlier. But I failed… I then imagined your spell and made my bloodline take its properties, but it made me like this. My blood feels like it's boiling…” Aezel explained.

”Your blood?” Lawrend asked as he stopped and entered into a daze.

”Yes. What's wrong, Master?” Aezel asked as she pulled her head back and looked at him worriedly.

”D-Do you want to exchange blood? Not all of it, but let's do a blood transfusion,” Lawrend replied.

Since he could change her body by pouring his golden lightning mana into her, he might be able to change her body again. This time, he would be raising her bloodline to a higher capacity.

”Blood transfusion? What if my body rejected your blood?” Aezel asked as she furrowed her eyebrows.

”Let's do a test later. For now, rest. If the test succeeds, we'll exchange half of our blood,” Lawrend replied.

”Master…”
