Legendary Beast Master: Starting with Contracting SSS Rank Dragon-Chapter 70: Blood

Kael had more things to ask the Dragon God, but as always, he vanished, as he was in control of his own summoning. Although Kael was disappointed, he had expected such an outcome and was already glad that Draven provided some clues.

Now, he knew how to proceed from here on.

"Are you not going to take the sword?" the woman asked when she saw him in a daze.

"No, it’s very dangerous, so don’t give it to anyone," Kael warned her, afraid that even a slight mishap would result in deaths.

"I know of its danger, so I don’t give it to anyone," the woman shook her head. "But I thought you might be able to handle it."

’You should have given a warning first, lady,’ Kael stared at her for a moment before saying, "We can do a test to see if I can really help you."

"What test?"

Seeing her eyes brightening at the mention of help, Kael’s lips curled up as he presented his arm to her, "Suck my blood."

Kiona, who was paying attention to their conversation from the start, almost lost her footing at his words and wanted to protest. She hadn’t even properly established physical contact with Master, yet this strange woman was going to have a taste of him. How could she not be angry?

But she was also a sensible woman, so she stayed silent, knowing that the strange woman could bring them a lot of help. They needed it, considering her master’s situation.

On the other hand, the woman didn’t think twice before she held Kael’s forearm and bit lightly on it. He expected some form of resistance considering his physique, but her canine teeth easily penetrated his skin as if it were butter.

’Really terrifying. She didn’t even try and easily bypassed my defenses,’ Kael was amazed.

All of a sudden, he felt a jolt of electricity run down his spine as the woman’s soft lips made contact with his skin and she hungrily devoured his blood.

With every second that passed, Kael felt as if someone was sucking his soul out. Weakness filled his being as he used mana to strengthen his legs so that he didn’t drop on his butt.

As if sensing his condition, the woman backed away after licking all the leftover blood from his skin and her lips. She muttered in a daze, "Delicious..."

Kael hurriedly stabilized his condition and also poured mana into his Regeneration skills to increase his regeneration rate. However, he discovered that there was something missing from his blood.

Everything was healing properly, but there was something amiss within his blood that he couldn’t identify. He ignored it for the time being and looked at the woman. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

She was standing straight, eyes looking at something distant, completely lost. Suddenly, raw mana burst out of her, but it was quickly suppressed before it could do anything.

Clarity returned to her eyes as she whispered in a low voice, "Endrias... my name is Vaelith."

Kael’s eyes lit up hearing that, as it signified that his blood could really help her awaken her sealed memories. Something was needed for it, but he was willing to sacrifice something to keep this Demi-God close to him.

Her sheer presence would be more than enough help for him, as it would deter many powerful existences and also make Churches wary of attacking them.

The only problem with this was that they might get implicated in her matters. But there were always risks in everything, and Kael was willing to shoulder this one.

Of course, he didn’t forget that this woman might just eat him whole to see if she would gain all her memories back. This was also the reason he didn’t suggest such methods at the start.

But with Draven’s testimony, Kael was reassured to some extent.

He took a deep breath and asked, "How much do you remember?"

Endrias jolted awake and turned to look at him and said, "Nothing else. I just have blurry memories of people calling me Endrias in fear. There are also some people who were calling me Rias, and their voice... was filled with love."

"We’ll go with Rias as your name then," Kael smiled and said. "And I think the portions you can recover using my help also depend on how much of my essence you have consumed, just like my blood essence."

With that, he took a step forward and arrived near Rias, "But I’m very weak currently, which resonates with my essence, so you will have to wait till I get stronger. Or we can do something like—I can give you my essence occasionally, which will help you remember your memories."

[Essence...]

’Did you get Corrupted?’

[No, I was just considering the possibility—and you mating with her seems the best way to give her maximum essence.]

Rias stared at him and asked, "Do you want me to protect you till you become stronger?"

"Something like that," Kael nodded.

"You should be honest then," Rias said without a change in expression. "Besides, I wouldn’t let you die because you are the only one who can help me. But don’t go overboard, because I have other ways to make you..."

"Chill! I know all of that, and I wouldn’t dare scam someone like you," Kael stopped her and said with a smile, "So, do I consider the deal done?"

"As long as you provide me with your essence, I’ll stay with you and protect you," Rias adjusted her glasses and said. "However, I must warn you that my strength isn’t what it used to be. I’m not sure how strong I was in my prime, but I’m clearly far from it currently."

’That’s not surprising,’ Kael kept his smile, "It won’t be a problem. We aren’t going to war or provoking someone powerful. For now, your presence is more than enough."

"Then, I don’t have any problems," Rias displayed a faint smile, causing ripples to form in Kael’s heart.

While keeping a straight face, Kael thought, ’She really is dangerously beautiful. Should I make a move on her?’

He shook off those thoughts and turned around to look at the still tense Kiona, "You can chill now. We are allies."

Kiona stared at Rias for a moment and then nodded, "I was just worried."

Kael swept his gaze towards the twins and realized they had lost consciousness and were still standing. They had a lower Evolution stage, so they were the ones mostly affected by Rias’s aura.

"I’ll wake them up," Kiona said, as she went towards the twins while cracking her fists.

Kael prayed silently for the twins and turned towards Rias, who was caressing her katana in deep thought. His gaze rested on her clothes as he frowned.

"Rias, do you find ’Earth’ familiar?" Kael asked.

Rias looked up and answered after lingering for a while, "I don’t know, but it seems like a place I have visited in the past."

’Indeed. My guess was right. Guess I have another reason to help her awaken her memories so that she can help me find a route back to Earth,’ Kael thought.

By then, Kiona had woken up the twins, so they then hopped onto their backs to return to their base. But Rias refused their help and directly teleported all of them to the Great Storm Tree.
