< Congratulations! >
< Blackfire has been upgraded to the Divine Rank! >
——————————-
< Blackfire, New Oath of Eternal Glory >
Rarity: Divine
Maximum Capacity: 100,000
— This black coffin can store any dead, or living, humanoid-type creature.
— It can also store Souls, including damaged Souls. Even if the Soul is nearly destroyed, and only a fragment of it remains, it can still be stored inside Blackfire, allowing them to undergo a second rebirth.
— Lux Von Kaizer can choose to transform anything inside Blackfire into Higher-Undead, Fairies, Nymphs, Elementals, or Celestials. However, the higher the rating of the Creature, the higher the price is needed to make the transformation a success.
— If Lux Von Kaizer doesn't wish to spend any resources on the rebirth of the creatures stored inside Blackfire, they will still undergo a transformation, but the results will be completely random.
— Rates of transformation for each creature are as follows.
(Higher Undead - 60%)
(Fairies / Demons - 20%)
(Nymphs - 10%)
(Elementals - 5%)
(Celestial - 1%)
– You can offer Beast Cores as a sacrifice in order to increase the rarity of the Creature you want to transform. The Rarer the Beast Core, the higher the chances for your desired Creature to transform into an Apex Being.
— If your Creature transformed into a Vampire, and you have sacrificed a Beast Core with high rarity, there is a chance that the Vampire will transform into a Vampire Lord.
– All creatures that have undergone their transformation inside Blackfire will always be loyal to Lux Von Kaizer.
– Each creature that Lux Von Kaizer transforms has a 35% chance to obtain the ability to evolve. This will allow them to become stronger and surpass their current forms, once certain requirements are met.
– If any of the creatures you own die in battle, you can revive them by offering Blackfire a number of Beast Cores depending on their rank. The stronger the Creature, the higher that offering will be.
-- This item is Soulbound to Lux Von Kaizer
Lux did a fist pump after seeing the amazing upgrade that Blackfire undertook.
From a storage capacity of only four, Blackfire could now store up to a hundred thousand creatures, allowing Lux to have an army of Elites that would be forever loyal to him.
Out of extreme happiness, Lux wasn't able to stop himself from laughing out loud.
This made Eiko, who was perched on top of his head, also laugh out loud, imitating her Papa.
Fortunately, the two of them were in a private room inside their Guild Headquarters, so no one was able to see this comical scene, which would have put a smile on the faces of anyone who saw them.
After laughing for a few minutes, Lux unsummoned the Black Coffin and left the room to see how his guests were doing.
A few minutes later, Lux found Valerie in the dining hall.
The "plain-looking" young lady was feeding her baby Dragon Slime, Kei, some pudding, which the latter seemed to love.
Even from afar, Lux could tell that Valerie was very happy, which made him happy as well. Because of this, he wasn't able to stop thinking about the kiss he shared with her earlier, making him wonder if Eiko was going to tell Iris what happened.
He knew that whenever they visited Barbatos Academy after returning from Elysium, Iris would talk to Eiko and ask her everything that had happened, while they were away.
The Baby Slime had a very good memory. In fact, Lux believed that Eiko had an Eidetic Memory, which allowed her to recall things perfectly.
Just to be on the safe side, Lux decided to try his luck and bribe the Baby Slime into keeping what happened with Valerie earlier a secret.
'Um, Eiko, can we keep Valerie's kiss a secret from your Mama?'
'No!'
'Eh? Don't you love me?"
'Love!'
'Then we keep it a secret from your Mama?'
'No!'
'Which one of us do you love more? Mama or Papa?'
'Love both!'
'Then we keep what happened with Valerie a secret?'
'No!'
Lux didn't know if he should laugh or cry at Eiko's toughness, contrary to her squishy jelly-like exterior. In the end, he decided to give up and just think of an excuse that he would tell Iris the next time they went to Barbatos Academy.
As if sensing a gaze on her, Valerie looked to her right side and saw Lux leaning on the wall not far from her with his arms crossed over his chest.
She then playfully waved to the Half-Elf, who also waved back at her with a gentle smile on his face.
This time, the Dragon Princess remembered the kiss she shared with Lux earlier, making her face turn beet red.
'This is not good,' Valerie thought as she covered her face with both hands due to embarrassment. 'I better talk to Mother later and ask her for advice on how to become closer to Sir Lux. Now that we have a baby, and he assured me that he would take responsibility, the next step would definitely be marriage. But I'm still not emotionally ready for it...'
Valerie didn't know what to do with the feeling that was overflowing from her chest. For the time being, she decided to have a proper talk with her Mother, whom she loved and trusted the most.
Not knowing that thoughts of marriage were swimming in Valerie's head, Lux decided to leave the Dining Hall for the time being.
Since his guests were being properly cared for by the maids from Garret's family, he decided to look for his Grandma Vera.
'I should keep my plan a secret from Master Gaap for now,' Lux mused as he went to look for his grandmother.
The reason why he was looking for Vera was simple.
He needed her to take him back to the Necromancer's Ancestral Lands.
Now that Blackfire could store Souls, he now had a way to help his Grandmaster, Hereswith, whose soul was currently staying inside the Black World Tree in the Necromancer's Holy Land.
He knew that his Master, Gaap, still felt guilty about what happened in the past, and in order to help him overcome this guilt, Lux decided to pay the beautiful High Elf another visit and give her a second chance at life.
