The Witch Hunter System

388 Achieving Equilibrium

After Vaan was done with the witches' corpses, he erased them with fire. Then, he took out the bodies of the Assembly of Silent Night's members.

Fortunately, the cave he created was large enough to accommodate them all, with more room to spare.

He settled the bodies on the edges of the cave for the time being, then made a large hole in the center with Earth Manipulation, followed by transmuting the earthen surface into metallic substances.

This was to avoid the ground soaking up the blood once he drained the bodies.

Once the preparations were ready, Vaan picked up the first body of an A-ranker, beheaded it, then placed the headless body on the edge of the empty pool, letting the blood flow out of the neck and into the pool.

Vaan repeated the process with each body until the blood pool was surrounded by headless bodies and ran out of space. Then, he started stacking the remaining headless bodies on top of the existing ones.

The additional pressure helped squeeze out more blood from the headless bodies getting pressed underneath.

As Vaan carried out his preparations, it looked like he was preparing some sort of blood ritual to summon a great demon, making him appear more demonic than any known demonic humans.

Nevertheless, Vaan did not feel any mental burden from the gory scene he created.

It was a dog-eat-dog world where strength reigned supreme. It didn't matter if his enemies were demons, witches, humans, or beasts. If they stood in his way and threatened his existence, he would remove them and use their remains in whatever way he saw fit to improve himself.

More importantly, Vaan didn't intend to waste Furhengir's blood—or, more precisely, the Immortal Lycan's blood essence found in their bodies.

Unlike the B-rank Witch Hunters, who only had Furhengir's blood essence, the A-rank Witch Hunters and S-rank Witch Hunters were more fortunate to have absorbed some of the Immortal Lycan's blood essence.

The A-rank Witch Hunters and S-rank Witch Hunters were able to grow more powerful than B-rank Witch Hunters as a result of the Immortal Lycan's blood essence they possessed.

Naturally, the two S-rank Witch Hunters possessed more drops of the Immortal Lycan's blood essence than the A-rank Witch Hunters.

After Vaan finished draining the hundred-odd bodies of their blood, he entered the blood pool without his clothes and soaked his whole body in the blood.

Ding!

<You have come in contact with Rank 5 Furhengir's Blood>

<Would you like to absorb it? Y/N>

'No!' Vaan refused.

Furhengir might be a Rank 5 Demon Wolf, but he had no interest in its bloodline nor mixing up his bloodline further.

Furhengir's blood's only value was to stimulate the Immortal Lycan Bloodline.

Ding!

<You have come in contact with Rank 5 Furhengir's Blood>

<Would you like to absorb it? Y/N>

'No!'

Ding!

<You have come in contact with Rank 4 Human Blood>

<Would you like to absorb it? Y/N>

'No!'

Vaan continued to reject a series of options as he soaked in the blood pool.

Out of the entire pool of human and wolven blood, the Immortal Lycan's blood only made up a minuscule fraction of it.

However, even if he only acquired a single drop of the Immortal Lycan's blood essence per body, it would still be a fruitful harvest for him.

After all, that was at least a hundred drops of the Immortal Lycan's blood essence.

Nevertheless, the normal process took too long. It was uncertain when Vaan's body would make contact with a drop of the Immortal Lycan's blood essence in the blood pool.

Thus, he steadily raised the temperature of the blood pool to a boiling point with fire.

The inferior human blood was the first to reduce in volume after the water inside it evaporated, leaving behind a thickening blood paste.

As a result, it became easier to distinguish the human blood from Furhengir's blood and the Immortal Lycan's blood.

Ding!

<You have come in contact with a drop of the Rank 6 Immortal Lycan's blood essence>

<Would you like to absorb it? Y/N>

'Yes!'

In a short instance, Vaan absorbed ten drops of the Immortal Lycan's blood essence as they squeezed through his pores and entered his body.

Ding!

<Ten drops of Immortal Lycan's blood essence have been acquired>

<Would you like to resume the incomplete bloodline fusion of the Fire Dragon God Bloodline and Immortal Lycan Blood? Y/N>

'Yes!' Vaan accepted.

Ding!

<Devil (10%) → Devil (15%)>

<Human (70%) → Human (65%)>

<Attempting bloodline fusion of the Fire Dragon God Bloodline and Immortal Lycan Blood>

<Bloodline fusion has failed>

<Equilibrium in the two bloodlines has not been achieved>

'What?' Vaan frowned.

Shortly after, he quickly commanded the system to update his race ratio measurement to two decimal places.

Ding!

=====

[Status]

«Race»

[Human (64.56%)]

[Devil (15.12%)]

[Dragon (15.32%)]

[Spirit (5.00%)]

=====

After seeing the numbers, Vaan immediately understood the problem.

The Fire Dragon God Bloodline and Immortal Lycan Bloodline were quite close to each other, but they couldn't be considered balanced.

In order to achieve a complete fusion, he needed a perfect balance between the two bloodlines.

As such, Vaan absorbed a drop of Immortal Lycan's blood essence from the blood pool. He also swallowed a drop of the Fire Dragon God's blood essence.

After he measured the changes in their two values, he absorbed another drop of each blood essence and measured the changes in values again.

He repeatedly studied the process, recorded the information, and calculated the future changes in value.

Once he gathered enough data, he finally dissected the right amount out of each drop to absorb and achieve perfect balance in the two balance.

By that point, dragon and devil bloodlines were already close to twenty percent each. Thus, he pushed for the whole number.

Ding!

<Devil (19.01%) → Devil (20.00%)>

<Dragon (19.26%) → Dragon (20.00%)>

<Human (56.73%) → Human (55.00%)>

Ding!

<Equilibrium in the two Divine-rank bloodlines has been achieved>

<Reattempting fusion of the two Divine-rank bloodlines>

Ding!

<Perfect fusion has been achieved>

<You have successfully created the complete Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline (Divine-rank)>

<Recalibrating status information…>
