365 The strongest Mythical Item
Originally, when Raze had gotten the statue, it had become a sealed item. It was cursed, but once the seal was broken, the item would no longer be cursed.
Similar to Simyon's earring, the curse was more of a simple one. Raze just needed to get the blood of five different people.
Due to the word curse, he thought that something might happen to the five who placed their blood in the statue to unseal it.
It turned out that there was no problem at all, just the fact that it needed blood. So, when he found out the statue's effects, he was a bit disappointed.
At the time, nearly all of the students were second-stage warriors, so the strength of the statue was just a little under what Dame's strength was.
It was a good tool to have, but in the future, it would just get weaker and weaker, which was why Raze was a bit disappointed by his actions, that was until now.
'I should have known, an item that has the status of Mythical level, wouldn't just be used like that, there would be other ways to use it as well. Not that I could test the statue.'
Since the only known way of getting rid of blood markings was to kill those that had been marked.
It was quite an interesting statue the more Raze thought about it. He wouldn't want to use the blood of his strong enemies, since most of the enemies he would use, he would kill.
The dead's blood couldn't be used to power the statue then. Similarly, if he used his allies' blood, if they died in battle, then the statue would start to grow weaker as well.
Now knowing the full extent and power of the statue, it was best to use it on allies that were strong, and would continue to grow stronger and not perish any time soon.
For him, Dame fit this bill, but there was one more person's blood they could use, and that was himself.
'If I add my own blood to this, I doubt it will be able to use my magical powers. The statue looks like a warrior fighting statue in the first place.
'There also has to be a limit to how strong the statue can grow. After all, it's not an item at the legendary or god level.'
Still, even with his and Dame's added strength, Raze imagined if Ricktor managed to reach the Middle stages, wouldn't the statue be close to the peak of the Middle stages as well. It might very well be a tool that could help them in the fight above.
"I can make the statue stronger, but I just need some of your blood," Raze requested.
No one wanted to be in the same situation as they were before.
And finally, Raze could see, Safa and the others sat in a circle talking to each other, or at least they were until Raze had entered.
Not knowing what to do as the room was filled in silence, Tinson gave a bow, and his two friends followed.
"We greet you, sir!" Tinson shouted, like they were welcoming a clan head.
"Hey, do we have to do that now?" Mada whispered, covering his mouth.
"Don't be absurd, he's no clan head, we are just mutual benefactors for now," Ricktor replied.
Mada didn't like having to do courtesy to his older siblings and those higher in his own clan. The last thing he wanted to do it was against someone who he saw as the enemy.
Ignoring everything, Raze had decided to head over to the three that were sitting down. Liam was looking into his eyes, trying to gauge whether Raze in a good mood right now, or was he in a bad one? He had seen both sides and it was hard for him to tell.
"You three have gotten a lot stronger. You managed to survive in here without me, I imagine you went through a lot," Raze commented.
"We did, but your items helped us out as well, and besides, we said we would help you, right? I said I would stick with you and be whatever you need me to be, so we can't just stay weak for long," Simyon stated as he punched himself on his own chest.
"Safa, I actually have something to give you and help you," Raze stated. "We might need to spend some more ti-"
Raze had suddenly stopped mid-sentence. The three looked at him, wondering if something had happened, if something went wrong.
Immediately, Raze turned his head, looking down the hallway.
"The Dark Space, the doors from above, they're opening again," Raze said.
Soon the others could hear the full sound of the mechanisms opening up. The last time it had opened up, a rush full of rabid students had come, the time before that it was one of the Clan's Heads, so why was it opening this time?
Ricktor, looking ahead, had a feeling he knew.
"It looks like they found out a lot sooner than I thought. We might get the answer to your question, Mada, whether Raze can deal with the Clan Heads or not."
