'Heh, we are really giving these techniques to a bunch of Half Vampires huh…' Lilia thought inwardly and sighed as she watched Ithania handing over the copies of the Cultivation techniques to the half vampires.

None of these techniques were normal, although not as strong as the ones Azriel uses, they all are still Tier one techniques which any low-level noble vampire would be willing his whole family fortune for.

And these Tier 1 techniques were given to beings who weren't even pure-blooded vampires, let alone nobles vampires.

'Haahh…' Lilia sighed.

She wouldn't have cared if the vampires who were willing to step forward and go through 'Purification' got these techniques, but she didn't like the fact that every single vampire got them.

However, she knew this was important.

To show the difference between a normal vampire and a vampire who went through purification, they need to have the same techniques, only then will more and more vampires will be willing to go through that agonizing process.

As for the vampires who still don't accept the purification?

Well, Luminia was lacking some test subjects, so they will be needed there.

Cruel?

It is cruel indeed.

However, there is no free lunch in this world.

If they aren't even willing to go through some pain, how will they fight against all the races in this world?

Heh, they would be the first to chicken out and will affect the morale of the others.

These useless people weren't needed, well; they were, but only as experimental rats.

Thinking about it, Luminia's excited face appeared in Lilia's mind and she sighed.

'Lady Luminia really found a fun activity huh…'

She muttered inwardly.

"So? Which path did you choose?" While Lilia was lost in her thoughts, Ithania was done distributing the cultivation techniques to all and Valerian questioned Ferox excitedly.

"Body Cultivation, of course, real warriors fight head-on!" Ferox answered excitedly as he patted his biceps.

"Heh. I expected that from a brute like you." Valerian sneered.

"What did you say?" Ferox narrowed his eyes.

"Nothing, I just said that I chose Mana Cultivation, just like Lady Ithania," Valerian answered with a small smile on his face.

"What? Lady Ithania, you chose Mana Cultivation?" Ferox questioned.

"I did." Ithania nodded.

"Hahaha~ I chose Mana Cultivation too!" Tassia laughed as well.

She and Valerian were really enjoying teasing Ferox.

It felt good to get one over it.

Tassia then smiled as she turned towards Lilia,

"Heh. Not only that, but even Lady Lilia is a Mana Cultivator, right, Lady Lilia?"

"I am." Lilia nodded and Ferox's face turned sour.

"W-What about Sir Azriel? I am sure he chose Body Cultivation, right?" Ferox questioned.

"He's different, don't compare yourself with him," Lilia answered. She didn't know why all these vampires are so eager to compare themselves with that monster.

Even a pure-blooded, highest-ranking noble vampire shouldn't compare himself with that freak let alone these half-blooded vampires.

"Heh. See that? Even if Sir Azriel has chosen Body Cultivation, he is completely different from you." Tassia smiled brightly when she noticed that even Lady Lilia was on her side.

"Yeah. Only a brute like you would choose Body Cultivation, the real strong people would choose Mana Cultivation" Valerian teased and seeing Ferox's face, his smile widened even more.

"Don't say that again, child." Suddenly, Lilia warned as she glanced at Valerian. Her eyes were a little threatening right now.

"W-Why?"

"Although most of us here, including me, chose Mana Cultivation, the strongest Vampire in this mansion, and presumably in the whole world right now, is a Body Cultivator.

Even if all of us were to attack her together, she would slaughter us without even raising her hand.

So mind your words." Lilia warned again.

She knew that the vampire didn't mean to disrespect her master; else, she would have beheaded him already.

No one is allowed to disrespect her master in front of her.

Not even Azriel, the hope of the Vampire Race.

"HAAHH! Finally! Teacher! The time is up! Let's go train now!" Azriel exclaimed as he glanced at Luminia with stars in his eyes.

Studying is way too boring.

However, Luminia didn't share his excitement.

"There are still five minutes left." She muttered and Azriel's excitement flushed out.

"Teacher… We can skip that… can't we?" he questioned but instead of answering, Luminia just stared at him.

"Ughh… alright, five minutes it is…" saying that, Azriel sat down with a dejected look and continued reading.

The whole transition from relief to the excitement and then this dejected expression was quite amusing.

Luminia enjoyed every second of it.

"Alright, I'll let you off today, we can go train now," Luminia then muttered and Azriel's face brightened again.

"Teacher! I knew you were the best!"

This time, Azriel closed the book with a slam and stood up.

He wouldn't study!

At least till tomorrow...

Luminia sighed when she looked at how he was acting.

His attitude was really similar to the past her.

She hated studying as well.

However, A King cannot be like her.

The path Azriel has chosen is the path of the king.

He cannot be like her.

He has to be better than her.

Better than everyone.

"Alright, let's go train. However, your training would be a little different today." Luminia muttered with a small smile on her face.

"Different?" Azriel questioned.

"Just follow me."

"Alright~" Azriel nodded.

He didn't have any problems with anything unless it is studying.

Luminia smiled and the two of them walked towards their garden. No, not where the other vampires were, but in another garden.

"Alright, now use your [Blood Mist]"

Without asking anything, Azriel's whole body burst into blood mist.

"Turn back," Luminia ordered.

Azriel then turned back.

"Turn into Blood mist again and then return to normal. Keep doing that for the next 30 minutes and make sure you do it as fast as possible" Luminia ordered before she sat on a chair.

Azriel didn't question anything, he continued doing what Luminia said.

He knew that she wouldn't waste his time.

Whatever she was making him do, it would be beneficial to him.

Luminia liked that attitude of his.

She was very satisfied.

Continuously changing into Blood Mist form and then returning back to normal for 10 minutes made him dizzy.

His speed decreased, however, he continued changing again and again.

Luminia watched him attentively; she observed the changes in his expression keenly. She knew this idiot wouldn't stop himself even if the training is too much for him, so she would have to stop him herself.

Azriel was different from other vampires.

A normal Vampire 'learns' an innate skill after he breaks through the next cultivation stage. The higher his cultivation; the more innate skills are unlocked.

However, no Vampire can just 'use' these innate skills as soon as he 'learns' them, all the vampires still need to work hard and train these skills to use them.

However, Azriel is different.

As soon as he 'learns' his Skills, he can 'use' them.

Therefore, Luminia has trouble training him.

She doesn't know how much she can train him since she has never seen a case like Azriel before.

That is the reason why she has to be so attentive while training him.

Not that she is disappointed because of that, the more out of the norm Azriel is, the higher the chances of him being able to fulfil his ambition.

And watching him progress day and night fills Luminia with unending joy.

20 more minutes later, Azriel finally stopped transforming into blood mist and fell to the ground.

"Haahhhhh… hahhh… hhhaaa…"

He breathed heavily and although there was no sweat on his face, it was clear that he was tired.

"How do you feel?" Luminia questioned.

"Dizzy… my vision is still a little blurry…" Azriel answered weekly.

"Hmm, don't worry, that's normal. You need to get used to it, the faster the better." Luminia muttered.

"Yes, teacher…" Azriel nodded.

"Good, now rest for 5 minutes and then we will continue"

"Yes"

Azriel then rolled over, with his chest facing the sky and closed his eyes.

With his incredible physique, 5minutes were more than enough for him to return to his peak state and 5 minutes later, Azriel stood up as he glanced at Luminia and questioned with an excited look on his face.

"Teacher, I am fine now. What do we do now?"

"Yes, now you see these 2 trees?"

"Yes."

"Run from one tree to another."

"Hmm? Alright…" Although Azriel found it a little weird, he didn't think too much about it and walked towards one tree. He then dashed towards the other tree at full speed and arrived there within a moment.

"Good, now transform into Blood mist and run back to the tree" Luminia ordered.

"Alright."

Azriel then turned into blood mist and rushed towards the first tree.

This time, his speed was a lot quicker than before.

Azriel was unable to control it and just as he thought that his body would collide with the tree, his vision divided into two and he passed through the tree.

He turned back to normal, turned around and when he noticed the tree behind him, many question marks appeared all over his face.

"W-What happened?"
