Nameless King

Edena walked over to the Goblin, opened the potion, and poured it into his mouth. The red liquid gave off a strong smell of blood that seemed very familiar to Wain.

\'Damn... This reminds me of my days in Vrifal, back then, I seriously increased my blood purity because of the blood plants... Could it be that Edena and Lui Bu were able to create a potion with the essence of blood?\' Wain inwardly muttered while staring intently at the Goblin.

\'Yeah. They are young. Let\'s see what happens, a lot depends on how strong the effect will be.\' Gladius muttered in a curious manner.

"All right. Lui Bu, now you." Edena said as she stepped aside.

"Sure." Lui Bu nodded and, with a few potions, walked over to the Goblin.

The Goblin just drank the scarlet potion completely, but Lui Bu poured three more into his mouth, dark, white, and blue. The four different potions mixed with the energy from the magic circle as Goblin\'s aura began to grow rapidly.

Crackle.

Many wounds appeared on the Goblin\'s body, bleeding through them while he was in agony.

"Hey, is he alright? It looks unnatural." Wain asked with a serious look.

"Yes. It has to be. We\'re not just making him stronger, we\'ve greatly increased his blood\'s purity and triggered an evolution. Just look, even though this is our first experience, I\'m sure we\'ll make it work." Edena spoke in a confident voice as she stared at the Goblin.

Wain just nodded since, so far, he had no reason to doubt her words.

The blood gradually became more and more until it completely covered the Goblin as though a scarlet cocoon, then came the most important stage of evolution.

The Goblin\'s silhouette changed and grew in size, so when the cocoon dissipated, everyone saw the new appearance of the monster.

Before, the Goblin was only one meter tall, but now it was taller than Wain. The Goblin\'s green body became red with muscles like those of a top athlete, his eyes became amber, calm but intimidating. Sturdy plates appeared on his legs, and his paws now had sharp, long claws.

"Good." Wain muttered with a sly smile on his face while clapping his hands, "Even though he\'s in Third Chronicle, his aura is actually intimidating. It\'s like he\'s become a living weapon."

"Bingo!" Edena exclaimed with a happy look as she clenched her fist, "Lui Bu, we did it!"

"Great!" Lui Bu uttered before hugging Edena.

"Hey, don\'t you think something is wrong?" Sarras asked while looking at Goblin.

"Is it so hard for you to be happy for us?" Edena muttered with puffed cheeks, "You were part of it too, so this is our shared success!"

"Girl, I\'m not talking about that..." Sarras muttered as he pointed at Goblin.

Whoooooosh.

Suddenly the Goblin turned into a blur as he appeared next to Wain. Now, his look was as fierce as never, with his sharp teeth as though a shark\'s jaw was pointing toward Wain\'s neck.

Wain\'s pupils narrowed as he took a last-minute step back and, with a light palm strike, tossed the Goblin aside.

"Wow, that was unexpected." Wain smiled while slowly stepping toward the Goblin, "Looks like your experiment has some side effects, right?"

Crackle.

The Goblin got up, ducked down, and attacked Wain again. There was a powerful killing intent from the Goblin as his only purpose was to spill Wain\'s blood.

"Well, well, even the sun has spots, so it must have taken a long time to happen." Wain shook his head, stepped forward, and turned into a shadow.

He was behind the Goblin and delivered a precise palm strike to the monster\'s neck. The blow was strong enough to paralyze the Goblin, so the monster passed out and fell.

"Damn... What did we do wrong...?" Edena muttered with worried looks while biting her nails in a nervous manner.

"Maybe we didn\'t prepare the potions correctly?" Lui Bu asked, "If we had the wrong proportions, this side effect is not surprising."

"I agree." Sarras waved his hand, "That\'s definitely something you got wrong. I did everything perfectly!"

Crackle.

The Goblin\'s hand moved as his claws sliced through the metal floor of the lab with sparks that flew off to the sides. The Goblin slowly rose up while holding his hand to his head and turned around with a confused look.

"Why are you looking at me like that...? What happened here...?" The Goblin muttered while in disbelief.

"Huh, it doesn\'t seem that bad." Wain smiled as he put a hand on Goblin\'s shoulder, "It\'s okay, consider that after evolution, you needed to let off some steam. Don\'t worry about it."

"Now that we\'ve dealt with everything, then I\'m off. Call me next time you need me." Sarras waved his hand in a careless manner and walked out of the lab.

"He pisses me off so much..." Edena muttered as she frowned.

"Well, it\'s Sarras, he\'s always like that, though I agree with him. I\'m sure after a few tries, you can get rid of the side effects, but for now, I would advise you to invite Frigus here. If I weren\'t here, this Goblin could seriously injure you." Wain muttered as he headed for the exit.

"Wain! Wait!" Edena exclaimed, running up to Wain and her ring glowed brightly.

"Here, take this. It\'s the best we can do right now. Without the knowledge that you passed on to us, we would hardly be able to make potions like this even in a few years!" Edena uttered as she held out to Wain the crimson potion from that emanated a strong smell of blood.

[Potion with Blood Essence (Third Chronicle, Epic Rating)

Two inexperienced but very promising alchemists created this potion. The effect is not the strongest, but it is enough to increase the Blood Purity by 5% if it is less than 60%]

\'Hmm... This potion is already useless to me, but I will surely find someone to pass it to.\' Wain muttered inwardly as he moved the potion into the ring.

"Thank you. I appreciate it." Wain said before walking away.
