"Huh?"
"What do you mean by rejected by the Universe?" I asked with a bewildered expression on my face.
[Master, there are two types of Nephilim]
"Two types?"
[Yes. The first type is the one you asked about. it is to be half of two different races]
[While the second one is two fuse two different bloodlines of two different races to become a Nephilim]
"I don't understand what is the difference between them. Aren't the results going to be the same?" I asked with a puzzled expression on my face.
[If you choose the first option, would make you have the advantages of both races but the disadvantages of both bloodlines would be amplified greatly. Like demons, their mindset is always filled with bloodlust and the urge to commit sins. They take years to control it unless they are of noble blood]
[So, if you combine a vampire bloodline and a demonic bloodline. It will lead to the amplification of these emotions]
"I see"
"Then what about the other type? And why are they rejected by the Universe?"
[The second type would fuse two different bloodlines to create a new one. This will lead to eliminating a lot of the drawbacks from the original bloodline and amplifying your innate abilities with the production of new ones.]
[As for the reason for being rejected by the Universe, it is because the existence of Nephilim is dangerous to the Universe]
"Why?" I asked again, Lena's words didn't clarify things as they only made me more curious and confused.
[Master, I can't tell you the specifics now but if you choose this path then I can clarify some things after that]
"How will I change my bloodline anyway?"
[The system will do everything. Master should just think carefully before choosing to go with the process]
"Another question"
"If I am rejected by the Universe, what will happen to me?"
[You will be struck by lightning]
"???"
"Then why should I do that?"
[Master, don't worry. That is the case only for other people and that is even if they succeeded in becoming a Nephilim]
"Is it this hard to become a Nephilim? Aren't there mixed-breed between other races?"
[Master, have you ever seen any children between two different races?]
"No? but I haven't seen much. So, counting on my view of experience isn't a correct thing to do."
Making assumptions and plans on incorrect information will lead to a dangerous path as that would create a shaky foundation for anything you are doing or creating. So, Max has always been steady with his plans and thoughts. He never did anything rashly. Only since he got his system did his current lifestyle change.
Getting my thoughts straight, I continued to listen to Lena.
[It is impossible for a child to be born between two different races unless some special conditions are met and even if they are born some of them don't live as either they would get killed in infancy or they die young because their health conditions won't be very good]
Hmm….
Lena's words made me think. There has to be a reason for something like this. Having bad health conditions isn't something hard to digest as maybe the genes of the two combined bloodlines would clash with each other which would result in weakening the body.
However, killing them when they are just kids shows that people are afraid of them.
Maybe Nephilim would give bad signs?
Or maybe they are harbingers of death and destruction?
Maybe their potential is too outstanding to the point of causing a lot of trouble.
A lot of theories and possibilities appeared in my mind, but I can't decide which of them is true as I do not know the history of the Universe and its secrets.
Even if I read a lot of knowledge from the library and am seeing that the races are living in harmony on Earth. That is just a façade, who knows how deep the water is between the races?
In the records, he read that all the races used to be living in other parts of the Universe and used to control large galaxies under them but suddenly all the main races moved here except for the dragons.
Of course, that didn't leave the Universe empty. After all, there are other small races that are scattered around the Universe.
Even the archenemies of the vampires are here on Earth.
Anyway, let's leave this for later. Shaking my head to get my thoughts straight again.
I couldn't help but get a little bit conflicted.
Should I do as Lena suggested and become a Nephilim?
Or should I continue on my road like this?
According to Lena's words earlier if I continued my road I could still evolve a lot and become a progenitor but if I became a progenitor of my vampiric bloodline, that wouldn't make me unique in any way.
I would only be a progenitor to the Ashrend family.
That means I will be able to naturally surpass the Ashrend family bloodline but the other seven families wouldn't feel much different.
After all, their bloodline originates from different Progenitors so I won't be able to affect them much.
Additionally, I don't know if my bloodline at the time would allow me to give me enough talent to break my shackles in this Universe and ascend.
Hearing about the Outer Realm and higher powers, how could I not be excited to reach there? It is better to prepare myself mentally for this.
Maybe choosing the Nephilim path would make me stronger and give me a stronger talent but the disadvantages are obvious.
I would be rejected by the Universe, I would be hunted immediately when it is discovered that I am a Nephilim. Although I am not sure about the reason, it is better to be careful and assume that I will be hunted if words get out.
Well, it is better to rise all the way whether I will be successful or not will be up to fate.
"Lena!"
[Yes, Master? Have you decided?]
"Yes, I decided."
[Then which method are you going to choose?]
Although Lena didn't give me a complete explanation about the difference between them. It still didn't take a genius to know which option between them one should choose.
Being a mixed breed? Or becoming a progenitor of an entirely new bloodline?
Of course, becoming a progenitor is going to be a better option.
"The second option Lena," I answered after making sure of revising everything in my mind and making sure that this is the best way forward for me.
[Okay, Master. You should unseal the vial and drink the blood inside]
"Won't that make it seems as if I am drinking normal blood?"
[Don't worry Master. Just drink the blood and the System will do the rest of the work]
Hearing this I just shrugged my shoulders and looked silently at the vial covered with runes in my hands.
After a moment of silence, I tried to open the vial and for some reason, the vial opened easily without any resistance.
The moment I opened the vial, intense demonic energy got freed from the vial.
It has the same signature of the aura that I and Hayley felt when we unlocked the door on the last floor of the tower.
Thankfully this time the aura didn't injure me or blast me from my place as the system is helping in containing the aura from leaking into the surrounding and affecting the ordinary people living around this block.
