As Max digested the pill and absorbed its medicinal effects, he felt rejuvenated.
He then opened his status window to check how many stamina points got replenished.
[Stamina: 70/100]
'Hm, it was pretty effective considering it was only a low-level grade-three pill.' He nodded inwardly and thought, 'Maybe the mid-level ones can replenish complete 100 points.'
He then turned to look at Leticia and was given a shock.
"Am I imagining things?" He couldn't help but rub his eyes. But nothing changed.
For some reason, Leticia had become cuter and more beautiful than before.
Not only that, she had developed more curves in all the right places and her breasts seemed larger and fuller. Her previously shoulder length hair had become longer, almost touching her hips.
However, the thing had shocked him most was that she seemed to have an eerie vibe around her, although it wasn't noticeable if he didn't focus on her enough, but when he did, he would feel chills run down his spine.
'It's too strange.' Max gulped down his saliva. No matter how hard he thought, he couldn't think of any reason for her sudden changes.
'Maybe that damned old man could explain this, but he isn't responding.' He cursed the system for vanishing at a wrong time.
In the end, he could only turn toward the knowledgeable Belen. When he looked at her, she was staring at Leticia in astonishment and a hint of... envy.
Noticing this, Max knew she must have found out the reason behind Leticia's changes. Therefore, while continuing to pound Leticia roughly, he asked Belen, "You know the reason, right? Tell me."
Belen took a breath and said in a slightly shaky voice, "If I'm not wrong, she possesses a bloodline and, because the certain conditions of its awakening have met, it's going to awaken."
She then thought, 'I wonder what kind of bloodline it is that it needs to have this kind of stimulation in order to awaken?'
"A bloodline?" This time Max didn't need to ask what a bloodline meant thanks to 'previous Max's' memories.
It is said that after one became a supreme mage, he or she could pass their special traits, such as their elemental affinity, to their descendants.
Although other traits, such as their trademark spell, their knowledge, comprehension and other things, could also be passed on, only the strongest supreme mages could do that.
Therefore, the most common type of bloodline was an elemental affinity bloodline.
Once someone awakened their bloodlines, they would immediately awaken the corresponding element.
If someone had awakened the same element before their bloodline awakening, their elemental affinity would experience a huge jump and, sometimes, it would increase their natural talent, too.
And even though such bloodlines were the most common type of bloodlines, presently, only a handful of families had them and, without exception, all of them were top families of their respective regions.
One such family was the Dalton family that had an earth affinity bloodline even though it was just a low level one.
However, one shouldn't underestimate a bloodline, no matter its level.
Why? Because no matter how low levelled, if it was something related to a supreme mage, it would certainly be something extraordinary.
What made a bloodline extraordinary wasn't just their special traits, but something else too. It was the trace of the supreme mage's aura. After one awakened their bloodline, this trace of aura would integrate with them and help them progress many times faster compared to other people.
People had a theory that the main purpose of a bloodline was to pass on this trace of the supreme mage's aura and other things were only a side benefit, not the other way other around.
But no one knew it was true. However, what everyone knew was that those who were lucky enough to have awakened a bloodline would have a solid chance of breaking past the mortal boundary where countless failed usually.
"It's great. Now she could wouldn't have to worry about being left behind." Max said with a smile. He knew Leticia was always worried about it because her progress speed was the slowest in their group. So, now she had gotten such a great opportunity, he was naturally happy for her.
"Yeah. Both she and Rima are almost sure to break past the mortal boundary." Belen nodded with a smile.
Max, however, could notice the concealed bitterness in her eyes.
He smiled at her and asked, "What are you being worried about with me around?"
Belen's eyes flashed when she heard this and revealed a happy smile, "Um.'
She then glanced at Leticia, who still seemed lost and said, "Let me help you a bit." Saying this, she came behind Leticia and started rubbing and pinching her nipple while simultaneously nibbling on her ears.
Max also tightened the muscles in his lower body and started thrusting harder and faster.
Thanks to their collective efforts, after another ten minutes, Leticia reached her climax. At the same time, Max also shot his load that he was holding back inside her.
Zing~!
Suddenly, his head started ringing, and he collapsed lifelessly on the bed.
"Wh...at happen...?" He could mumble these two words before he fainted.
His sudden collapse shocked Belen.
'Is it because he depleted all of his stamina? But he wasn't even sweating.' She thought.
When she checked his body, she shockingly found that he seemed to have lost most of his vitality. His body had turned pale and his breathing had also slowed down. She immediately took a grade-three vitality replenishing potion from her storage ring and fed it to him.
However, when he didn't show any sign of recovering, she fed him a few more one after another and used her mana to help him digest it.
A while later, color returned to his face and his breathing gradually stabilized.
Phew!
She took a breath of relief and fell back onto the bed. When she glanced at Leticia, she found her covered in purplish haze.
'Is this how it looks when people awaken their bloodline?' She wondered as she watched all the changes around Leticia.
Boom!
