Chapter 307: A Powerless Angel (2/2)
”Don't worry, she's fine. The only problem was that we're gonna try a new solution that has never been tested before, and I'm the one that proposed it to her,” Lawrend further explained.
”Is it dangerous, Master?” Amene asked.
”Yes, it's dangerous,” Lawrend replied.
”Nyaa..?”
Grape walked in on them. Her hair was messy, and she looked like someone who had just woken up from sleep.
”Grape, good timing,” Lawrend said.
Since she was already here, he didn't have to explain it to her later.
”Aezel and I will do a blood transfusion, and we will exchange 50% of our blood together. This is in the hopes that she would be able to increase the quality of her bloodline. When she succeeds, she'd be at a Grand Mage-level,” Lawrend explained.
”Wow!” Aleshia exclaimed in amazement.
She was doing her best to catch up to Lawrend and Aezel. She was surprised and a little disappointed that she'd become stronger. She at least wanted to become on par with her in terms of strength.
”Tomorrow or the next day after tomorrow, we'll do it.”
”Master, what do you want us to do?” Elena asked.
Since he was telling this to them so solemnly, he must have a reason.
”I want all of you to accompany the two of us at that time,” Lawrend replied.
”Human, is this the reason why you don't want me to call any of my friends?” Ramiela asked.
She took an interest in their discussion when she heard that someone was about to become on par with her in terms of strength.
”Of course. I don't want you to call another angel after we finally managed to become strong enough to control you,” Lawrend replied.
In truth, Aezel could already fight evenly with her, but ultimately, she was still at the strength of an Arch Mage, and Aezel was still at a disadvantage. That doesn't include the fact that he's also about to become as strong as a Grand Mage once he becomes an Arch Mage.
For example, if their battle was prolonged, Aezel would lose because Ramiela would simply have more mana to use as she was a real Grand Mage.
”Y-Y-You tricked me!” Ramiela shouted in disbelief.
She couldn't believe that this was his plan all along. She felt so stupid falling for it.
”I didn't trick you, and you simply didn't know those facts,” Lawrend replied with a shrug of his shoulders.
”Grrr… I swear, I'll get back at you for this,” Ramiela said.
Her face turned cold as usual, and she stared at him. She wanted to tear him apart, but she can't do that.
Her soul would be under his control if she broke the soul contract.
”Don't worry. I won't order her to kill you. We'll just keep you in check,” Lawrend replied.
”...”
Ramiela stayed silent.
His words could be true or they could be empty promises.
”Sign another soul contract with me! You can't kill me as long as I don't betray you,” Ramiela said with gritted teeth.
She hated the words that were coming out of her own mouth. By doing what she said, she won't be able to assassinate him if an opportunity arises. That would be her only chance to go against him in the future.
