Arion felt the gazes of admiration and envy being showered upon him and could only smile to hide his awkwardness.
Even he didn't know that Aslan and Zixin had prepared such a big surprise for him.
He felt elated since his determination to become a legitimate Dreadslayer skyrocketed after undergoing a terrible experience under the onslaught of those Dreadlings.
He realized how inexperienced and weak he was against the Dreadlings, most of all, how close he was to losing his life forever. He knew that if he died for real next time, then he wouldn't be reincarnated with his memories or anything remotely like that.
The freak event of an old man appearing before him and offering him his Origin Blood was not something that happens twice. Even that incident was not something he was supposed to survive, especially when Aldress was holding evil intentions of taking over his body.
