Blood Evolution System

Chapter 141 - Tomb Of Roselia



"Let go of me," Veronica said, seeing him lick his lips while looking at her as if she was prey.

"No." King Wrath felt something clouding his judgment, making him want to taste the flesh and bone of this girl for good.

"Please, let me go. You\'re making me die from embarrassment." Veronica said, mustering all her physical strength and pushing him away.

"As you wish."

King Wrath took a few steps back, setting her free with a teasing smile on his otherworldly face.

This came as a surprise to instructor Veronica as she wasn\'t expecting this to happen. Honestly, as his wife and a woman in her early twenties, she wanted him to feel her far more than this, and she knew he wasn\'t one to shy away from such feelings. In contrast to her thoughts, he not only managed to control his emotions but also allowed her to leave.

King Wrath smirked as he looked at her standing still, seemingly as if she got struck by a lightning bolt, paralyzing her to the core, and said, "Aren\'t you going to leave?"

"Hmph!" Instructor Veronica stomped one of her feet on the ground, pouting in annoyance before turning around and storming away from the arrogant and narcissistic King Wrath.

An instant after she left the dark hallway, King Wrath\'s face got covered by the demon sealing mask, giving rise to Varth.

"Oh, this naughty woman. What am I going to do with her?" Varth said, feeling as if he has missed something great, something he could have easily gotten by princess carrying Veronica to the bridal chambers.

He shook his head, kicking such a disgusting thought out of his mind, seemingly not interested in falling for talk of love after having being betrayed by a bit too many humans.

"Her crocodile tears were as disgusting to see as ever," Varth said in his mind, telepathically communicating with Noah, his most precious device and friend.

[Indeed, it must be for master.] Noah replied, acting like a know it all.

"How was my acting?" Varth asked, a smug look on his face.

[It was perfect, my master. Full of emotions! Spectacular! Even I was nearly fooled.] Noah replied suddenly appearing right next to him.

"Was she too?" Varth asked, wondering whether or not Veronica fell for his act.

[From the read I took on her emotions, I calculate she too was fooled. But maybe she is just too good at controlling her emotions and fooled me in turn.] Noah replied, bewildered at the complexity of human beings.

"Doesn\'t matter, truly. After all, the play has just begun." Varth laughed in his mind, a devilish smile forming behind the mask covering his face.

He felt like he was a man conducting an orchestra.

However, a single mistake might end in him losing his freedom as well as his sanity.

The Hollow Family wouldn\'t let him die, not let him get away. They will, however, do anything to get him back as he was the ultimate weapon they\'ve created to fight against not only the creature of hell but also the throne of the Earth Federation.

Nevertheless, he will keep on fighting back, foiling all ill plans aimed towards him just as he had managed to foil their plan by making a grand escape a few months ago and sneaking his way into the military academy after fooling everyone.

And this was just the beginning.

He will play with the spy sent by them and also the people hiding in the shadows until he reach the Emperor stage.

"It\'s only a matter of time before I advance to that stage. And once that time comes, it\'s the end for the Hollows." Varth said, stepping towards the nearby window, jumping out of it, and dropping straight towards the ground below.

Just as his feet touched the ground, a sound echoed throughout the building.

Ding, dong.

After the bell rang throughout the main building of the academy, signifying the end of the class, many also stepped out of the class to go to the reception building and get evolution materials.

Some had decided against it as they wanted to arouse the supernatural cells present in their bodies by following the instruction provided by instructor Veronica.

Why?

It\'s because awakening by arousing the cells in their bodies was far better than awakening by using ordinary evolution materials provided by the military academy.

"Let\'s go."

An instant after Iris said those words, she grabbed John\'s arm and left the classroom with him. Nevis and Leilani followed in tow, wondering what Iris has in mind to acquire 10 thousand units of life force for John.

"So, what\'s the way for us to get so much life force for him?" Leilani asked after they entered the dorm room opposite her boyfriend\'s living quarters.

"There is only one way for us to get so much life force in a few days," Iris said, attracting everyone\'s total attention before pulling out a map sealed by emerald threads that receded into the corner of the map after her breath brush landed on them. "And that\'s to explore the place mentioned in this map!"

Leilani, John, and Nevis turned to look at the map and noticed a large circle in the middle of it, highlighting the Tomb of Roselia, the firstborn daughter of the first Emperor of the Avalon Empire and the companion of Ylaleath, the Greatest Hero.

"This coffin marker indicates the tomb of the Iron Clad Lady," Iris said, pointing at the center of the map and telling them that this is the tomb of Roselia. "As you might have already guessed, she used to be the companion of the greatest hero before she eventually passed away after the ancient war between most of our races and the demon. And this is her resting spot."

"You want us to act like grave robbers and loot the treasures in her tomb?" Nevis\'s eyebrows raised.

"No! Before her death, the iron-clad lady, Roselia, announced that anyone below the age of seventeen is welcome to enter her tomb and challenge the tomb\'s trials to get the treasures she left behind. One such treasure is called the Fruit of Life, rumored to have the power to increase a person\'s lifespan by ten thousand years."

Iris said, widening their eyes in surprise and shock.
