Kael Cor: A Vampire's Awakening Chapter 117 Temptation to Motivation

But I had a plan or at least some semblance of a plan, and I also knew that by tomorrow I would be a whole lot stronger than I was right now, with multiple options in the upcoming fight. I'll totally kick his ass regardless of whatever schemes they might come up with. So I will win(hopefully.)

Teluna had given me a rundown of what had happened after I went unconscious, he was surprisingly detailed, all too detailed to the point that he knew every move each and every single one of them made during their fight, which was more attention to detail than I would ever expect from a got head like Teluna, it was really impressive and terrifying. The very imagination of the ruthlessness displayed by all of them, shook me, but their loyalty moved me.

So while hey fussed over me, surprised by my sudden advancement, with the exception of Asha who was pouting over me falling for an obvious trap, I decided to increase my strength. It was time to put those essence points to work.

The tier cap for a revenant was 7, anything above that would belong to a BloodChild. If I had paid attention to my the essence points, I would have already had the physical capabilities of a BloodChild ranked vampire.

Every time a vampire goes up a rank, if their stats are low, it is rounded up to the base tier of stats for the rank they're entering, but if it's high, the stats. Are increased by two tiers, so if I was a their 7 revenant and went up in rank, then I would have been tier 9.

i was stupid to have neglected using those essence points as soon as possible, I needed strength, and an obvious one somehow just managed to skip my mind when I really needed it. It was beyond foolish and I knew his all happened because I made the grave mistake of underestimating my true enemy.

It won't happen again. Now that I was a blood child it would take twice as much essence points to raise any of my stats, which meant I need two hundred to raise any of my physical stat to tier 8.and if I should go up in rank again, that number would also double to 400.

And from what I can see, essence points are really rare, and it's only because I was luck that I had this much. But now I needed to use them. I gave mental commands to my system, allocating those points as I required.

"move 600 essence points to the strength, agility and physique class."

There was a blinding pain that saturated my body for almost a second, shaking me greatly, but it only lasted for a second, like of like having a bucket of cold water do used on you, the shock only lasts for a moment. I was fine and the only thing to show for it was a little grimace on my face, I looked up to see my friends all looking at me, I smiled and said to them.

"By all means continue nagging moms, I'm okay really."

They all shook their heads and went off to do something else, with Teluna even going as far as clocking me over the head, but disappearing fast enough that I wouldn't be able to say anything to him in the mean time.

I pulled Asha and Xaseah close to me and had them both sitting on my laps as I wrapped my hands around their waist. I'm sure I looked like some sort of spoilt rich brat, but I didn't care, because technically I am a spoilt rich brat.

"Don't think this gets you out of punishment for making stupid decisions." Asha sad to me as she rested her head on mine, and stretched out her hand to hold onto Xaseah. It was a perfect circle if you ask me, my family.

"If I have to get punished by you, then I don't mind, not one bit." I replied to her with a mischievous grin. She proceeded to pinch me as Xaseah said to me with humor in her tone.

"You must be a masochist my love, I like the idea of punishment, and I have more than a few ideas. Do you want to find out what they are?"

She had spoken that entire sentence while whispering softly in my ear and massaging her hands into my inner thigh, safe to say something or someone else was paying too much attention. I lost my voice, I nodded my head with anticipation, it was so ridiculous I looked like a kid about to be given a toy he desperately needed.

Xaseah giggled as she gave Asha a coy grin, then she leaned down to kiss me, it was romantic, or sensual, this kiss was a full blown 'you're turning me on get your clothes of kiss' and I was ready for that to be honest.

Asha pulled me from Xaseah and capturer my lips, even going so far as grabbing my little brother through my almost destroyed cotton trousers, moving her hand up and down as she kissed me with a soft but frantic pace. I felt like I was in heaven and shivered in anticipation about what was about to happen next, before Asha suddenly said in between our kiss.

"I'm sorry Husband, but you can't lay a finger on me for quite a significant amount of time, after all I'm pregnant."

The ugly look on my face said all I wanted about this current situation. My kid's not even been born yet, but he was already taking away some special 'me time' was it possible to resent your own child before they're born, this was so not fair. But the ugly look was about to get worse. And this time it was Xaseah who wanted to kill my joy.

"Unfortunately we can't have you punished tonight either. We just survived a major battle and the tower is bound to require some attention, you need to keep your mind clear. And as a motivation, if you win tomorrow I'll let you......."

This was worse, not it was much more worse. Why would she whisper that! In my ear. Now it would take a significantly longer time for little Kael to back to sleep, and I swear I was tempted not to care about their excuses and just rip their clothes off and rip into them like a lion on his lionesses.

I could swear some part of them wanted me to do the same too, but in the end logic won over. I needed to take care of some things, because tomorrow I could very well end up taking over the entire blue district.

They both bent down and gave soft heartfelt kisses before making their way out of the apartment, whatever it is I had to do now, I could do it now. First I had to take a look at my improved stats. I felt stronger and faster, there's no doubt about that, and increased physical capabilities would give me an edge tomorrow.

But before checking my stats, there were some system messages I received, but I had ignored in favor of exchanging saliva with both Xaseah and Asha, if you ask it was not that bad of a deal at the time. It just too bad we couldn't carry on with it.

[FOR REACHING TIER 10 IN THE STRENGTH, AGILITY, AND PHYSIQUE STATS, YOU'VE BEEN AWARED THE ACTIVE SKILLS, LION'S ROAR, LION'S SPRINT, IRON MANE]

[LION'S ROAR LEVEL 1: BASIC: RELEASE A DEEP ROAR THAT INCREASES YOUR STRENGTH BY 5% FOR 30 SECONDS, NO COOL DOWN OR CAST TIME, EFFECT DOES NOT STACK]

[LION'S SPRINT LEVEL 1: BASIC: INCREASE SPEED BY 200% FOR 15 SECONDS, INCREASE HYPER SENSE SKILL EFFECT BY 5% AND STRENGTH BY 5%, NO COOL DOWN, NO CAST TIME]

[IRON MANE LEVEL 1: BASIC: RAPIDLY GROW YOUR HAIR TO COVER YOUR BODY WITH A METAL SOLID MANE THAT CAN RESIST TWICE AS MUCH DAMAGE AS YOU CAN RELEASE AT FULL POWER FOR 15 SECONDS, NO COOL DOWN, NO CAST TIME]

What the hell! Basically those skills could be used as much as possible as long as I had enough energy to activate them.

Of course it seemed as if someone (earth) was trying to make me as lion themed as possible, and while I appreciated the sentiment, the idea of not even being in control of my own skills left me very unsettled.

But I was not so stupid as to look a gift horse in the mouth (whatever that means), so I happily accept this three new skills. Having too much options in a fight is not a bad thing. Now let's take a look at this stat page.

Everything seemed like it checked out, and some of my skills seemed as if they had gone up a level along with me ranking up. There was less and less time left for me to train this days since I was so busy, getting stronger did not only rely on fighting. Sometimes you just had to take a step back and study yourself and what you could do.

I had so many unexplored avenues of strength, with my abilities with ether being the most under utilized, along with the monsters in the dungeon. I hope to change that soon, now I had to take a look at this tower and see what changed. I hope to have a few tricks up my sleeve tomorrow too.
