He hoped it would help in curing her curse, but that was merely a wish. The phoenix bloodline was strong, but to deal with a curse, the speciality of demons, was hard. But it was hard only because the bloodline was still weak. Alan had focused on it for a while, but no matter how much he did, it wouldn't be enough to level it up that much.
