Chapter 6 - Progenitor

"Only pure-blooded vampires counted as our people, my King. 

You will understand the real reason for this in the future. 

Now, for the benefit, first, I shared some information about both of you so you could know each other better." 

Vesa's ruby-red eyes shone, and then a flood of information started to come into their minds. 

This new information made Alex and Mingyue look at each other. 

It was knowledge about their worlds and a little background about their lives. 

Mingyue had come from the Xueqi family, a middle-level cultivation family in her world, and then trained in the Blue Lotus sect. 

As for Alex, Mingyue was surprised to learn about his world, filled with technology. 

A desire started to form in her heart as she wanted to visit his world. 

Comparing the entertainment levels between their worlds was like comparing a small mound to a big mountain. 

'So, cultivation worlds really existed, not just in novels,' Alex thought. 

'Based on the information, the highest cultivation was immortal, but there should be higher levels and higher worlds. 

If I could cultivate and utilize the information, wouldn't I be able to increase my family's wealth? 

Then Mom would stop nagging at me!' 

For Alex, his mom's nagging had been his worst enemy. 

Nothing was worse than that, not even the evil apocalyptic dragon or the weird things happening now. 

In fact, Alex felt excited. 

He had already grown bored reading the same type of novel with the same repetitive plot or whaling in games. 

"As you become closer to being a progenitor, my power will also grow. 

I will be able to allow you to move between worlds. 

For now, my ability only allows for this kind of meeting or sending small items between your worlds. 

Other than this, since both of you share the same source of power, you should be able to talk to each other telepathically anytime. 

The System will also help you use other progenitors' abilities to maximize your growth. 

For example, King, with the System, could help find the most suitable person you need for a job, as it constantly detects people's auras around you. 

As for Queen, it could help you look for any treasure. 

Not only that but when you want to practice alchemy or your secret art, I will help you figure out the most efficient way to do it." 

"So, it is basically the ERX chip function," Alex mumbled. 

He then walked closer to Mingyue and extended his hand forward. 

"No matter what, our lives are linked now. 

I will properly introduce myself. 

I am Alex Campbell, the only son of the Campbell family." 

Hearing this, Mingyue frowned. 

"What only son? 

You still have a sister." 

Alex chuckled, "As you said, she is the only daughter, and I am the only son." 

Mingyue felt confused but then understood he was just joking. 

She shook his hand. 

"I am Mingyue. 

You should already know my family. 

And honestly, you have a bad sense of humor. 

Can't you see our situation?" 

Alex laughed, enjoying the handshake and feeling her soft palm in his. 

Without releasing her hand, he said, "You are too serious. 

There is nothing we can do about our circumstances for now. 

Let me be direct, then. 

I want a cultivation method. 

In exchange, I will get you something from my world." 

"You should know the cultivation method I use is my family's secret. 

I can't just give it to you like that. 

Even if I did, we need to find out your element and talent grade first." 

"My Queen, he is the King, not a stranger. 

And as I said before, both of your bodies have been transformed. 

Even an All Elemental Heavenly grade talent falls short now compared to his talent. 

A half-vampire in Eldonia could easily crush an immortal in your world. 

And both of you have progenitor blood." 

Hearing this, Mingyue's eyes lit up with excitement. 

"Wait, you are saying he is even more talented than those heavenly-chosen geniuses because you transformed his body? 

Doesn't that mean it is the same for me?" 

"Yes, my Queen. 

But I suggest you don't tell anyone in your world about it." 

Mingyue scoffed, "Vesa, do you think I am stupid? 

It is dog-eat-dog in the cultivation world. 

I will only trust my own clan and parents." 

"Queen, I know you won't believe me now, but I mean including them. 

When you go back later on with the System, you will be able to feel their intentions toward you. 

You'll understand later." 

Hearing this made Mingyue frown. 

She still wanted to retort, but Alex interjected, "Just hide it for now, Mingyue. 

You will lose nothing anyway. 

So, where do we stand on the cultivation technique?" 

"Give me time, Alex. 

I need to think about it first. 

I also need to consider what I want from your world." 

"Alright, just tell me after you've decided or if you need anything." 

He then turned his gaze to Vesa. 

"How do we become progenitors? 

Do we just wait until the blood finishes changing our bodies?" 

Vesa laughed, "If only it were that easy, King. 

Other than the blood both of you received, the progenitor ability is split into many things across many worlds. 

But don't worry, I know all their locations. 

When I feel both of you are strong enough, I will start giving you some quests to take them back." 

Vesa's expression suddenly changed to a frown. 

"Queen, you should return first. 

I've moved you into a forest near the secret realm entrance, and I sensed some movement coming close to you." 

"Alright, see you later, Vesa, Alex," Mingyue said as her body turned translucent and then disappeared. 

Alex's hand then became grasping nothing but air. 

He pulled it back and then looked at the pink creature in front of him. 

"Vesa, what are the characteristics of the Vampire race? 

You should know how they are portrayed in my world."
