Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 369 Blood Monarch’s Avatar Spell

After Nykka, Tarinne, and Yeva left the potion shop, Arthur and his wives talked privately about how they would proceed with the upcoming updates.

"We want to go with you! It will be dangerous, so we have to be there to protect you!"

"No! It would be best if you stayed here, caring for the shop and getting richer. The danger will not be the vampires, but me too if I get insane!" Arthur said.

He did not like the idea of leaving them alone, as Arthur wanted to be around to protect them, but there was no denying that it would be too dangerous, and he needed to do it alone.

"How long will you be out?"

"I don't know, but I will keep in touch. You two will be busy taking care of the shop, and if anything happens, you can send me a message. But first, before I leave, we need to hire some people to help you two."

Arthur wanted to hire two people, one responsible for taking care of the orders and another for the delivery. Also, Arthur needed to brew as many potions as he could before leaving to ensure the shop had enough while he was away.

"Shouldn't we hire an alchemist too?" Wisa suggested. 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m

"I thought about it too, but our shop is famous because of our higher-quality potions. We cannot give up on that," he said.

They could not think of a way, but a voice echoed inside his mind. It was from someone he knew very well.

"Ikarus!"

"Hello, brat! It seems I have to save your ass and probably sleep again."

"What do you mean? Hey, I also spoke with Turquoise. He gave me his World Essence, but I still don't know how to use it."

"Turquoise? It's been a long time since I heard about that bastard, but his World Essence? Why would he do that? Wait, don't tell me he made a bet with you…."

"How did you know?"

"He is a betting addicted since ancient times."

"…"

"Anyway, I think I might be able to help you, not only with the alchemist problem but also with a way to get you stronger."

"How?"

"An Avatar!"

"What? Why would a bald monk help me?"

"Bald monk? An Avatar is a second body. You can make it look like anything, but why a bald monk…."

"Oh, my bad."

"So hear me out. There is a technique inside the Blood Monarch's inheritance. You can create a second body and print it with some of your knowledge, like your alchemy mastery, so that will fix your alchemist problem. Not only that, but the avatar will have its mana core, and you can merge with your second body at any time to boost your strength, almost doubling it depending on the avatar's level."

Arthur could not believe such a spell existed. Wasn't that defying life? That was beyond extraordinary.

"There are flaws, though. You can only have one avatar and print the knowledge but not give it power. You will have to train from zero. Also, there is no way of putting your bloodlines into the avatar."

"I see. Like a weaker version of me."

"Well, not exactly. You see, brat, think about it this way. If the avatar dies, then the only thing that can happen is you getting weaker for a few days, and that's it. So, you can use the avatar to practice forbidden techniques, which can grant incredible powers but also have the chance of killing you in the process."

"Are you telling me to use my avatar as an alchemist for my shop but also turn it into an experiment and maybe create a monster if things go wrong?"

"When you put it like that, it sounds terrible, but that's what I meant. Look, this might help you way more than you think."

"What do you mean?"

"I know your vampire wife is missing, and you want to rescue her. But even if you reach the level of a rank four mage, it might not be enough. You know that."

"I do, but what's your point?" 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

"Remember when I told you you could make the avatar look like anything? You can turn it into anything too. Brat, I suggest you transfer your blood essence to the avatar and turn it into a vampire. Then, you can infiltrate inside the vampires while your main body reaches rank four."

"I-I get it! This is an excellent idea."

Ikarus came to help Arthur, like always. The avatar would fix the alchemist's problem for the moment, but it would also serve as a spy for Arthur to go inside the vampire family that kidnapped Sybille.

"But does the avatar have its consciousness?"

"No. I cannot explain, but you two will be the same person, share the same thoughts, and you can control both bodies simultaneously like an extension of yours as if you split your mind into two."

"This sounds crazy."

"Yes, it does. So, do you want it or not? I can transfer you the spell, but it will hurt again, and you will have to survive without me for at least a few months."

"Let me think about it."

Jane and Wisa had noticed how strange Arthur was acting, but they had no idea it was because of Ikarus, who had returned. Arthur explained the idea behind the spell and wanted to know their opinion.

"This is incredible! I think you should try and use it to help us find Sybille in the future."

The two shared a favorable opinion, so Arthur accepted Ikarus' offer and got the spell from the Blood Monarch's inheritance.

"Prepare. This is a spell without the same tier, and it should be one of the best spells the Blood Monarch knows. Your mind will hurt a lot."

"Do it."

Arthur was prepared for anything, but when the pain came to his mind, it drove him insane! It was way worse than he had imagined. He went to his knees, putting both hands on his head to make it less painful. It did not work, and the pain made his heart stop!

"Jane, do something!" Wisa yelled.

? Jane's main element was lightning, so she stepped forward and used it to make Arthur's heartbeat again! One time, two times, nothing happened.

It worked when Arthur got hit for the third time, and he returned from the dead.

~~~~

"I am back on Earth?" thought Arthur as he returned to his old room.

"What happened?"

Then, the entire building where he lived collapsed, and when he looked up, Arthur saw a portal appearing in the sky, with monsters coming out of it!

"A dungeon portal? On Earth? How? What is the meaning of this?"

~~~~

"Ahh!" Arthur screamed.

When he looked at that portal, Jane brought him back, and he was again alive in that world.

"You are alive!"

Jane and Wisa could not hold their tears, and Arthur could not understand what had happened.

"Visions after I died, or was it real?" he thought.

"So, did it work? Do you know the spell?"

Only after his wives asked him, Arthur remembered what his goal was, and sure thing, Ikarus was again sleeping after using his power to help him, Arthur now had a forbidden avatar technique, and he could not wait to create a second him.

He had his plan formed. For now, he created an avatar that would work as an alchemist while he looked for ways to deal with the hunters and find the second part of the inheritance.

After that, Arthur would turn his avatar into a vampire, transfer the blood essence to it, and use it to infiltrate where Sybille was. While the avatar enters, his main body would do anything possible to reach rank four, and then the plan of her rescue would occur.

"I am coming for you, bastards who took my wife!"
