" Mom! Dad! Come outside right now. Alixandre can do something amazing!" Amara said. She interrupted the two during an intimate act.
" This better be important," Scarlett and Vlad put on some clothes and headed toward the entrance of the kingdom.
" What is it that you want to show us?" Steffon said with slight annoyance.
" Look ahead. Look at the sword in his hands."
" What type of sword design is this! How can I feel such a cold aura from it? There's no way you learned inscriptions this quick." Scarlett's jaw was on the floor. She had never seen a sword design like the sword of Milos.
"It's beautiful. May I hold it?"
Alixandre gave the sword to Scarlett. With a swing, the blood around them froze.
" How did you do this?"
" My left arm is made from the raw magic element that this world produces. It was the growth weapon that chose me when I came here. It allowed me to apply abilities to weapons without inscriptions. The only thing is that I have no idea where the abilities come from. My guess is from the blood I use or the blood I have absorbed."
The atmosphere between them suddenly turned cold.
" The question I am about to ask will determine your future. Will you sell these weapons to anyone?" Her eyes became fierce. He could feel her watching him like a predator.
' Another ultimatum. Being weak restricts my freedom too much for my liking. This has to change soon.
*Sigh*
" I know you won't kill me, but I'm not going to take advantage of you. I won't sell them to anybody outside of the kingdom, but I'm going to have to find a way for the weapons not to get sold by the buyers."
" Good answer. Let's let go of this gloomy atmosphere. Can you make my daughter a special weapon?" Her attitude changed instantly.
Amara tried to hide her excitement but the smile on her face gave it away.
" Of course. I'll even use the blood in my own body."
" Is there a difference?" Steffon said. He looked and studied the greatsword diligently. Even in his prime, he couldn't create a sword as good as the one in front of him.
" I can feel the difference between the swords made by blood compared to others. My blood feels like it's imbued with something. It's just different. Amara, what do you have in mind?
" I would like a bow."
' A bow shouldn't be difficult, but I want it to be special.
" Miss Scarlett, do you not have the ability to create weapons?
" If I did, would I need you to create them?"
Alixandre closed his eyes, ignoring Scarlett's snarky remark. His body was engulfed in a pitch-black aura. He was back in the weapon creator space, but it had changed.The golden letters turned into a full-blown weapon creation interface. He had complete control of the skills and affinities applied to the weapons.
' This is ridiculous! I can create anything I can think of! Let's focus. What should I do for Amara? A bow... A bow... Can I make-"
He thought of one of his favorite movies from earth called 'Immortals'.
" Create a large compound bow with no string. The bow should create string and arrows from magic. The magic shouldn't come from the user but from the planet. The bow should be able to transform into a spiked greatsword that applies a poison similar to that of a deadly snake. Allow the sword to be a growth weapon. The owner applies their blood to the weapon so the weapon's true power can only be used and sensed by the user. Create!"
" Back up now and cover your mouth!" Scarlett said. " Don't inhale the air around him. The black aura had gone wild and became poisonous.
* AAaahhgg*
' It feels like my body is being destroyed!'
Alixandre couldn't be seen but his scream echoed through the air.
When the black aura went away, Alixandre was on the ground with a large bow in his hand.
" Do you feel the power the bow is giving off!" Steffon was in awe at the bow in Alixandre's hands.
" Is this pass special grade? I've never felt a weapon so powerful."
" Worry less about the bow and more about the boy on the ground," Scarlett said as she smacked him in the head.
Alixandre's breathing was unstable. The veins in his body and face were glowing orange.
" Mom, I've never seen this before. It looks like he's about to explode and lava is going to come out." Amara found it hard to hold back tears. On her knees beside Alixandre's unresponsive body, she traced the glowing veins.
" They're so hot."
" Amara, this isn't the time to be acting girly about your boyfriend," said Steffon.
" No, the veins are burning hot. Touch them."
Scarlett and Steffon walked toward Alixande's half-dead body and inspected it. Steffon was confused and Scarlett already knew the cause.
" He's was over his stat caps and hasn't leveled up yet. If this was anybody else, they would've blown up, but his regenerative powers are god-defying. I'm starting to believe he's immortal."
Steffon and Amara brushed off the remark, but Scarlett was serious.
" Bring him to his room and let him rest."

" Jesus Christ, this headache is going to kill me," Alixandre said as he woke up. His eyes were heavy and he couldn't move, but his body felt no pain. In fact, it was like he was paralyzed.
" Who's Jesus?"
"Ahh! Sophia, what are you doing here and how did I get in bed? I was making Amara's weapon."
Sophia sat beside the bed, dowsing a towel into cold water.
" You've been out cold for three days because you're over your stat caps. You should be dead, but your healing abilities are amazing. Your blood must be special."
" Do you want to drink it?" he said with a smile.
" You found out that I'm a vampire? Sworn enemy of the wolves. Do you not hate me? Because I hate you and like you. More like lust you, and I'll take you up on that offer. You have the most special blood I've ever seen. Holding back from draining you has been hard. Especially knowing you won't die because of your healing abilities."
Two sharp fangs protruded from her mouth. Her eyes turned pitch black and under them were black veins.
" You are like me?" Alixandre said.
"You are worse."
* SIink*
Her fangs pierced his arm slowly. It was as if she was trying to bite him gently.
* Gulp* *Gulp* * Gulp*
" Ahh. That was a delicious meal. Wolf and incubus blood is the best mix I've ever tasted." She cleaned herself up with the towel she used to cool Alixandre's temperature down when he was sleeping.
" So how do I fix my body?"
" Miss Scarlett said you have to level up and then you should be fine."
Alixandre sent magic through Sylvia's inscription and his body made a popping noise. Suddenly, a strong crimson red and silver aura erupted from his body. He sat up and stretched his limbs.
" I can finally move now. Where's Amara?"
" Trying to get that broken bow to work. You made it without strings."
" I did that on purpose. You'll see how strong it is. Wait-"
He remembered that Lucas was supposed to be here in a few days.
" Is Lucas here?"
" He will arrive tomorrow."
" I'm about to show you something that may ruin this family."
***********
" That howl that every wolf heard and felt days ago came from your son?" A golden-eyed man with shoulder-length silver hair sat across the table from Abraham and Alexandria.
" Yes, we could feel the blood resonance in our bodies. Justine even said it was her brother. I just don't understand, because it felt like something more than a true god," Alexandria said." We are only god-like divine beings, not true gods."
" Where is he now?"
"Fenrir, our son isn't strong enough to bear the responsibility of the wolves. Please don't force him to do anything he doesn't want to do. He's just a kid," Abraham said somberly. He didn't want his son to be involved in the wolves' issues, but the howl he felt made him realize that his son was the most important piece.
" I promise that I won't make him do anything against his will."
