"Thank you. I don't need too much, with this one I think I will be able to advance. Probably with ten more my bloodline will be able to advance even more. However, to advance further, I will need too many of them, save them for your own use."
Aiwai didn't want to be greedy with the loot Yale had obtained from the Bear Overlord even if he had told her that he had a lot of those fruits.
Yale took another ten and gave them to Aiwai; he wouldn't force her to use more as after her first improvement she would already be above the correct range of usage for the Bloodline Fruit, once she reached the Rank 7 the cost of Bloodline Fruits would start to increase exponentially.
Aiwai ate the first Bloodline Fruit while Yale was collecting the corpses, she was also someone who loved training, she was impatient to improve her bloodline and advance to Rank 7, the Elder Rank.
She had mentalized to use a lot of years to advance without relying on her bloodline at her own pace; she had lost any hopes of advancing quickly.
However, with the fruit which could make her improve easily in her hands, she couldn't restrain herself. The increase of one star was important, but the increase in rank was a major change.
Aiwai didn't know too much about the Elder Rank as she thought that she had a lot of time before reaching it, but she knew that with her bloodline her lifespan would double at the increase of rank, her lifespan would surpass ten thousand years after advancing in rank. Her current lifespan was over six thousand; the increase would be significant.
That would also mean that she wouldn't age for a lot of time. She already had a lot of time before starting aging in the Rank 6, but as a woman, she didn't want to grow older, so the more time she had before starting aging, the better.
In fact, if it weren't because half-beasts could choose to mature with their increases of strength in a similar way to beasts, Aiwai would have never reached her current aspect with her training speed.
Thanks to that, most half-beast experts looked adult even in a situation humans wouldn't. That capacity of maturing of half-beasts was weaker than the one of beasts; they couldn't mature past the appearance they would have as mortals of the same age.
Given that they could start training since birth, there would be a serious problem if they couldn't choose to continue growing until being mature due to increasing their realms too quick.
However, there were some exceptions who were able to use special skills to take adult form even at young age, that was quite strange, but it wasn't something unheard of, especially for those with mutated bloodlines.
That was what Aiwai thought Yale was using; she had also used that kind of skill in the past when she started traveling and didn't want others to treat her like a kid. Of course, those skills could only be used to look older; it wasn't possible to look younger with them. Thus, since the moment Yale transformed into his kid form, Aiwai had no doubt he wasn't older than that.
Yale was smiling after having finished collecting the corpses, he didn't need things to improve his bloodline, but pills and natural resources to strengthen the body were useful to him.
Aiwai had finished improving her bloodline and went to make the breakfast, she thought that Yale should be tired and Wyba would awake soon. Aiwai had only improved her bloodline; she didn't advance. Although she could do it whenever she wanted, she would need some hours to finish the breakthrough, so she chose to advance at night to avoid losing her time with Yale and Wyba.
Aiwai loved training, but she also loved her time with her family, she wouldn't neglect Yale and Wyba due to her training.
"Sis, will you go hunting the remnants of the organization?"
Yale went to the kitchen to ask that to Aiwai, that was an important point to discuss.
"I want, but I lack information."
Aiwai wasn't a softie, she was only soft and lovely with Yale and Wyba, against others she was ruthless, for her the best type of enemy was a dead enemy.
"Don't worry, they tried to soul-search me, and the skill rebounded so I know everything about their organization, with me you could eradicate all of them."
Aiwai had guessed that, but she didn't plan to ask for Yale's help to kill the remnants of the organization, she only needed the information.
"Tell me about them, and I will go to kill them later, with my archery they will be dead before they noticed anything."
Yale was also expecting that answer, but he couldn't agree to that.
"No, I will go with you. It will be faster to guide you on the way than giving you all the information from beforehand, we can't lose time, or they will notice something happened and they will flee. Furthermore, leaving alone Wyba and me won't be safer here than going with you."
Aiwai understood Yale's point; the house had already been attacked, she couldn't risk to leave them alone just after that and waiting more time would let their targets escape; if they fled, they would be able to spread the word about her Water Healing.
"You are right. I don't want to implicate both of you in this matter, but leaving you alone isn't a good idea."
Aiwai wanted that her family would be outside any bloodbath, she just wanted to live happy days besides Yale and Wyba, but she knew that if she didn't kill the remnants, more dangers would come.
"Sis, I am already implicated in this matter. Moreover, there is nothing bad in eradicating the area's overlord organization as a family. I am sure Wyba would also love to see you in action."
