"Sigh… you are just like your master stubborn and persistent. But I don't think it is bad. These are exactly the qualities one needed to get stronger" Irene said in a serious tone
"Although the status had ranked you as a [B] rank, it was based on your current bloodline and predicted growth. The status of this world maybe be great but it is not omnipotent, it has its own flaws and loopholes".
"Your current status as a [B] rank didn't take into consideration the slight trace of the special bloodline that is lying dormant within you. You might have already felt it but if you can awaken that power, you can break through the obstacles limiting your growth. That being said, it is impossible for you right now to awaken that kind of power. If you keep focusing on it, you might limit your present growth. You can think about surpassing your limits when you near it. For now, I think it is good for you to do what you have been doing up until now".
Irene explicated and walked near the pond, her crystal blue eyes resting on the reflection. The glint of determination in the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse eyes became even more piercing. It looked at its master one last time and went back to its original spot before lying down there once again.
The density of mana around the surrounding was very thick and beneficial for increasing its strength. Hence it would be a waste not to take advantage of it. The thick fog lingering around the area started enveloping the warhorse within it and after a few minutes, its figure was completely covered by the white fog.
Irene who was seated near the pond, lightly brushed the surface of the water with her hands causing a slight ripple. She looked at her reflection and slightly knitted her crescent brows.
The scene that happened just a while ago where she suddenly had this incredible headache for some reason, appeared in her mind once again. She did not why this phenomenon occurred when she suddenly heard about Cecilia being a reincarnation of some Emmicary.
Irene clenched her hands and did her best to recollect something. At that time, she distinctly saw something, it was like scenes from somewhere, intermittent and unclear.
She saw a figure of a person bathed in blood facing two shadowy figures who similarly had wounds covering all their body. She did not know why but she suddenly felt a familiar presence from the two shadowy figures and before she knew it, everything became a blurry mess.
It felt nostalgic yet unfamiliar at times. But how can that be? She clearly has no such memories like that.
What is happening? The very thought made her headache worsen and she instinctively froze the whole pond. The mark of the phoenix appeared on her delicate forehead once again and eased her pain, a clear resonant sound echoed out across the main floor.
The pond that had a ridiculous intensity of mystical energy, was frozen before one could even blink an eye. The pond that even the body of a Demon Viscount couldn't handle for more than half a minute, was frozen by Irene just like that.
One could imagine the kind of realm one needs to reach to do a feat like that subconsciously. SHHHHH… Frosty air surrounded the area causing a sharp decline in temperature.
Although the pond was frozen, it was just the upper half, the bottom half where the mystical veins were connected was completely unaffected. This means that all the objects growing at the bottom of the pond, was completely unscratched.
Realising her mistake, Irene swiftly removed her hands from the surface of the frozen pond and used her Permafrost magic to turn the water back.
Looking at the two who were doing their best to increase their strength, Irene discarded all those thoughts that floated onto her mind and paid more attention to their growth. Glancing at Simon who had unknowingly entered a focus state, she mused.
There was another way to increase the rank of the Bloodthorn Demonic Warhorse that she didn't tell it as this method meant relying on others. Perhaps she felt it wasn't required or perhaps she believed that they would find this method soon but she felt that it wasn't the right time to tell them this method yet.
The other way to increase the rank of the demonic warhorse was by naming it. Irene did not know where and how Simon managed to summon someone like it but one thing she was sure of was that even without being named, the Bloodthorn Demonic warhorse was already ranked at [B].
There was no telling what its rank would be after it receives a name. On top of possessing a special bloodline, the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse was also unnamed.
It was already unusual for a being [B] rank or above to be unnamed since all the monsters when born, receive a name from the abundant mystical energy of the world.
Almost all of the high ranking monsters when born receive a name from the mystical energy. The Bloodthorn Demonic warhorse being without a name, was clearly unusual. Although there are some cases where a high-rank monster is born without a name, those are clearly the exception and only happened to those classified as [A] rank or above.
What does a high ranking monster being born without receiving a name signifies? It goes to show that the everpresent mystical energy of the world, already thinks that the being is plentiful strong enough even without a name.
If the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse fell in the same category then there was no telling what its rank would be after it was named. Although not receiving a name was unusual, but Irene wasn't surprised.
'It seems that the mystical energy was able to sense the faint trace of bloodline sleeping deep within the warhorse' Irene could tell why the mystical energy decided onto not gifting a name to the warhorse.
'The faint trace of the special bloodline that it had inherited should be from that clan' Irene crossed her arms as she deliberated. She was familiar with the beings from that clan and knew how powerful they were. There was no doubt in her mind that if its bloodline is awakened, it would be no exaggeration to say that the warhorse's strength and bloodline would jump a few ranks.
That's what made it scary about inheriting a bloodline of one of the clans that sat at the pinnacle of power. Although awakening the bloodline sleeping within the warhorse would make it a powerhouse that stood at the pinnacle, it was easier said than done.
Even if the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse tried its best, it might not even be able to come in contact with the faint trace of bloodline within it much less awaken it.
That being said, the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse not receiving a race might work out in its favour in the end. Other than receiving a name from the mystical energy, monsters can also receive a name from someone.
However, that someone must be a rank higher than the one who is being bestowed a name or else the naming process won't work or in the worst case the person bestowing the name might even die.
Naming is a process where a person grants a name to the other using the mana within them. The name bestowed is not just any ordinary name as it is the amalgamation of mana within the person transferred to the entity in the form of a name.
A monster named like this will forever be branded with a marking of the bestower and would be eternally loyal to him. The entity being named in return will receive a huge power in the form of a name, making them multiple times stronger than before.
Sometimes when the bestower is too powerful, the entity that receives the name receives a percentage of power from the bestower and ends up jumping one or two ranks. Although Naming is an unmistakably powerful tool, it is still considered a forbidden process as it needs a lot of control and incredible manipulation of mana.
One mistake and the bestower might even lose their very life in the process. There are various other restrictions on the process such as if the entity is already named, the naming process won't work and will fail automatically. Or if the bestower is not a rank above the receiver, or if they are in the same rank, the Naming won't work.
Similarly, if the receiver is too weak or low ranked to bear the name, it would die immediately by blowing up from within. There are other considerations to be taken such as losing focus during the process and immature manipulation or control over mana would result in your entire mana being stolen in return.
The most important of all is that the named entity loses some of its freedom and is branded with the mark of the bestower, making them eternally loyal and unable to refuse any orders from them.
Although it might sound like a slave contract, there are some differences. Unlike the slave contract where the life and death of the slave are under the control of its master, the Naming process doesn't fully bar the freedom of the named entity.
Though some of the actions of the receiver are restricted, it retains most of its cognition and thinking ability.. Since the entity receives a huge increase in strength in the form of a name, the brand is essential so as to prevent the receiver from hurting the person who named it.
