Chapter 71: Legacy?
Reo was stunned but looking closely his body is still very strong.
Llyod is noticed it and chuckled before going inside the his shop.
"W-What? There's actually A Ranked artifact's here!" Reo shouted in joy and interest his gaze burned even more looking at the weapon's.
Even though not dazzling it was still a A ranked weapon and is the best quality it can have.
Althea also looked around interested there's a ton of accessories she could use that would greatly strengthened her.
First is a Blue icy Ring and the second was a Bracelet she inspected the effect of the Accessories and it really helped her by a ton.
Andrea meanwhile find herself a Cloak thay greatly hidden her mobility since she wasn't someone at close combat.
She also find a leather shoe's that could enhanced her speed by 40%.
The weapon's accessories and even armory it was simply to good.
if Reo had not got inside he wouldn't believe that there's actually very good and high quality weapon's.
"Mmmm, done checking?" He muttered nonchalantly.
"Take what you want but first listen what I'm going to say and answer them" His voice was commanding making thhe 3 unconsciously leaned closer to him.
"What conditions?" Reo asked.
Looking at the artifacts he have alot of interest.
"First take care of my child" He muttered in a sorrowful tone.
They weren't surprised in his word's it's parent's instinct to check over their children before themselves.
"So how are your still ok after getting touched by her?" Althea coldly asked her tone piercing and merciless.
To suppress that kind of cursed as a mortal surely he had pay something very huge.
Llyod simply chuckled.
"Through my countless year's of Experimentation i had make a potion that make me immune to the poison"
"But sadly the exchange of that was more than 80% of my life essence"
"Even if i have strong body what's the point of it if i don't have the life Essence?" He chuckled as if death is not the one he was concerned at.
"i had been observing the three of you noticing you three could be fine after even you touch her i felt relief"
"i had been scrambling my mind and planned for a very long time but yet i still don't have solution once i die"
Althea expression were quite complex.
She is still vigilant toward's him since it's extremely dangerous even if his in last few breath's.
Andrea meanwhile have s worried expression if she have the Prime of her power she is sure to be able to extend his life time.
But she didn't wanna give false hope and just bite her lip's gently not saying anything.
He smile bitterly as he continued.
"But thankfully since the three of you can touch her and my daughter seem's had taking a liking toward's the three of you"
"I will entrust my daughter to the three of you"
Llyod explained it easily but Reo have a grim and complex expression in his face.
"You said she was experimented on" Reo spoke back looking at him in the eye's checking if there's any lie.
"Yes but how could i the Father let her be experimented on and suffer?"
"So i decided to escape in the Veronica family" he continues.
"Ever since that day the Veronica Family had been hunting us with countless of A ranked that i considered was a Family"
"Even though i have a high Status in the Veronica Family because of interest in my daughter curse and unknown energy we have no choice but to leave"
"We leave in the West Region and got in the south that's why we ended up here in the chained city"
Reo hearing that his expression darkened even more.
Getting her was simply suicidal because it Mean's also getting hunted by the Veronica Family.
The Dark Aether and Union we're already targeting them and will they take another problem?
Althea and Andrea face also become quite Grim.
"of course it's not free I would let the three of you to become much stronger"
"I'm going to give you my legacy in exchange help my daughter"
Hearing that Reo eye's shined.
Legacy it mean's they could inherit someone treasure's and their accumulatation and a bit of blood of their bloodline.
There's countless of inheritance but mostly are in the D or E ranked which are not that quite valuable.
it was also very rare that Reo until now never found a Legacy.
But a A ranked legacy made Reo heart boiled the boost in strength he will get will be simply astonishing.
Althea looked and Reo so does Andrea waiting for what decision he would make.
Even though they didn't know what he meant by legacy the two make up their decision to make Reo decide.
"Okay" Reo muttered with barely contained excitement
Even though their will be more risk there's also a chance for him to get stronger.
"Good since you accept let's make a contract" he muttered with a genuine smile.
Finally when he died he can have peace.
Every day Lloyd had been thinking non-stop every night of how he would save his own daughter.
But now he can sleep peacefully and simply wait for his death.
He handed out a Scroll.
Slowly he write's all of the rules.
First was to protect his own daughter.
The Second is that the three of them fully have his inheritance.
Third was never abondon her daughter.
He wrote countless of rule's to make his daughter be surely safe.
Once done.
Reo looked at the contract.
The contract was a bound between each other and if one didn't obey it their heart's will stop.
Even after one died they would still need to obey that rule.
The thing Lloyd wrote wasn't a scheme or to manipulate them it was all for her daughter safety.
Reo was now assured after triple checking the contract.
He bit his finger putting his blood in it.
At the same Llyod also did the same spilling a drop of blood.
Once they did that the scroll magically glowed and slowly it shrink's until it was gone.
"Good everything is set first my bloodline I'll give it the three of you" Llyod muttered with satisfaction
"is it fine if I don't take the bloodline" Andrea muttered sheepishly.
"Same as me" Althea muttered coldly.
Llyod expression become unreadable and looked at Reo.
"in the contract I need to give the full inheritance that Mean's if the other two doesn't want it then Reo you have to take all of the blood"
He spoke with caution in Reo since a 100 Percent bloodline transfer could give one in a unimaginable pain.
Hearing that Reo just bite his lip's as he nodded.
Looking at his approval he grab his wrist and slice the skin apart.
Reo face become pale but didn't resist.
The next thing was to transfer his bloodline.
Slowly Reo felt like his blood was trying leave in his every fiber he bite his lip's trying to endure the pain.
Every moment passed was like a month he felt suffocated but by each passing moment his hearing's become better.
The speciality of the Veronica Family.
Stronger natural body than any normal human's when they unleashed their skill or ability it's much stronger than any normal one.
Like right now Reo vision is in a blurred but his hearing's slowly got better.
The Veronica family bloodline was truly profound as his body that is naturally weak.
Become Naturally very strong.
After half a hour.
Lloyd healed the wound and repair the skin.
Reo body was filled with sweat but looking closely his body looked more defined.
His clavicle become quite wider and there's abs that is compressing in his shirt.
Opening his eye's it wasn't blurry but he could see everything much clearer even normal ant's he could detect it.
"Here's a towel" Andrea gave one.
Reo take it with a smile "thank's" he looked around and heard the sound of forging.
"What's that?" Reo asked looking at Andrea.
"Oh right Althea gave her A Ranked pendant the she said she got in a temple" she muttered explaining.
Reo stand but when he tried to walk he tripped falling in his face.
Andrea almost chuckled but looking at him struggle and couldn't properly walk she help's.
Reo realized what's wrong.
He haven't fully adapted in his body because naturally weak body and Naturally strong body is completely different thing's.
Reo eye's twitched as he felt that he was like a baby trying to walk.
He sighed.
"Can you give me a hand?" He muttered completely helpless.
Andrea nodded lifting I'm up like a baby.
He was easily lift up with the use of her devine power.
They approached were is Althea and Llyod is and the heat inside was unbearable.
But Althea aura fight it off fiercely amidst the heat was Llyod not even faze.
Reo gulp if he was in the situation he would have been surely melted.
