“So, how was the conclusion of their bet?” Bobby asked with a smile on his face.

“The hunter defeated all the four heads dealing heavy damage to them with just a drawing of his sword once from the scabbard,” Diana replied. “So you should always protect your heart and your head as a vampire.”

“Bobby, come. Try to stab or do anything to injure my heart.” She instructed.

Bobby then started stabbing her while aiming at the location of her heart. Every time he did that, Diana used two upper body movements, missing the position of her heart. After a few minutes, they stopped.

“This is the skill you want to teach me. Hmm..” Bobby said with a bit of dissatisfaction.

“So lame, right?” Diana said, “Hey, this is the best thing I can teach you. Actually, I am not good at teaching martial art, anyway. But don’t worry, I know someone. Next time you come here, I shall introduce you to him.”

“Okay. Can I ask you something?” Bobby suggested.

“Sure, what is it?” She replied.

“Diana, what is the difference between us and those of Origin Chi cultivators? Is there any difference?”

“Yeah, totally. We, the members of the olden six families, don’t need to cultivate like those of Origin Chi Cultivators. We just need to have a bloodline breakthrough by practicing those skills that developed when our bloodline activated for the first time. Until now, we have classified it up to 6 levels. We term the first bloodline breakthrough as LVL 1 Blood Evolution, similarly the 2nd bloodline breakthrough as LVL 2 Blood Evolution, and so on. With increasing our levels of Blood Evolution, our strength will also increase. But we need various factors for the bloodline breakthrough, such as one’s understanding of one’s own nature of bloodline. As every one of us has different bloodline properties. For me, I have an affinity for ice elemental.” Diana explained.

“Oh, which bloodline level are you currently at?” Bobby asked curiously.

“Level 2 blood evolution!” She responded.

“So, how about the tier system for the Origin Chi Cultivators?” Bobby breezed again before she could even reply, “And also, from a book I just read, I learned that all six olden families have been hiding until today. But, you behaved as if you had an Origin Chi cultivation skill. How do you do it?”

“Bobby, even though our source of power is different. One thing is exactly the same; the skill that we use is exactly the same. Let’s say in my case, I can manipulate ice laws and use them as my skill through my bloodline skill. There are also many more ice elemental-based Origin Chi cultivators. The only difference is that their source of power is through cultivation skill while mine is from my bloodline.” Diana further explained,” And for your second question, after a few years of research, we came to understand that we could manipulate those Chi Detector Devices that they used to identify essence Chi and their nature of properties from all testers. If we activate our bloodline skill at exactly the time of testing, then the machine would give us as a Non-defect. That is how we all disguise ourselves as those Origin Chi Cultivators.

“You still didn’t tell me about their levels of cultivation base.” Bobby reminded.

“Okay, okay, I will come to that too.” She then put the lock of hair over her face back behind her ear. “They classified it in six tiers like our bloodline evolution; The Muscle Strengthening Stage, The Bone Strengthening Stage, The Blood Purification Stage, The Organ Cultivation Stage, Chi Core formation Stage, and the Natal Soul Stage. There are also higher realms after this. You will know about them later.” “OH, and each stage is further sub-divided into ten levels.”

In the meantime, Bobby could hear the same beeping sound again and saw a new notification.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Bobby smiled on seeing it in his mind. He then suddenly remembered that he needed to feed on two more humans for his ongoing mission. He looked at the timer just below that challenge and there were still 11 hours remaining to complete the mission.

“Diana, I’m hungry,” Bobby said.

“Okay, I will make dinner for us. Follow me to the kitchen.” Diana replied as she walked toward the door of the library hall.

“Wait! I mean, I am hungry for bloodlust.” Bobby suddenly said again.

“Fine, I have humans’ blood here too,” Diana responded as she continued walking toward the door.

“Not that one. I want to suck fresh blood from those humans directly. Can we go somewhere to find my prey?” Bobby corrected again, as his mission was nothing to do with only drinking blood. He had to feed directly from his prey, anyway.

Diana turned and glanced at him. “You must be kidding, right? You have just drunk, sucking your 1st human blood to your fill today from a prey.”

“What do you mean?” Bobby asked in confusion.𝐎𝒱𝑙xt.𝐂𝑜𝐌

“Usually after feeding until our stomach fills directly by sucking on our prey, it could deprive us of the bloodlust for almost three months. The only thing is that we need to consume blood daily from our blood packages instead of feeding directly from prey. Also, if we continued to drink fresh blood from preys, eventually we would become an addict. Don’t tell me you have become addicted after trying just your first blood.” Daina explained. She then rushed toward him, opened her mouth, and checked his teeth. “Hmm, thank goodness! You are not an addict.” She said faintly while heaving a sigh of relief.

Seeing the questioning expression of Joey, she clarified, “Bobby, if a vampire became addicted, then their fangs will still be there until they have subsided, his or her bloodlust.”

“Maybe I’m different, as you have already seen it, too. ,” Bobby said.

Diana also agreed to him this time, as his vampiric transformation was an odd one. Usually, to turn a person, a vampire should start a ceremony by biting on that person. But it was not the case for Bobby, as he instead bit on Diana. She then thought, “Maybe he might be right. As his turning process differs from anything that had happened in the past, he might also have an unusual appetite for blood.”

“Fine, let’s go to a nearby city from here and find your prey together.” Diana agreed.

Then the two walked out of the library hall together.
