"Mommy, Daddy! Look at what I got.", then without waiting for them to react she then shared some prompts with them.

Seeing them, the first thing Lara did was letting out a relieved sigh. She had feared that there would be a problem, because of this stupid guys marriage. Now she could relax because first, the effect was a good one, and second, her daughter could reject the inheritance, and from the wording, she could reject the following too.

"So did you already accept?"

"Of course not, Mommy. You have told me to not just accept anything, without asking you first.", the little girl said while looking obedient.

"I think she should accept. It looks like something positive, without any negative side effects.", Ivan voiced his opinion.

"It looks like it."

Jane jumped up and down in excitement when she heard that her parents agreed to her accepting. She had always wanted a pet, but sadly it was impossible. Because her stats were much higher than those of other children of her age, a normal pet would be easily injured, as soon as she lost even the slightest bit of control over her strength. And for children, it was much harder to control their strength, especially while playing. On the other hand, a Monster Pet was impossible too, since, first of those of a suitable size were very rare, and secondly, she was still unable to make a contract.

Seeing the expectancy of her daughter, Lara was unable to deny her, especially since there was no definite reason, so she nodded.

"Yay, thank you, mommy.", the girl exclaimed and jumped at her to hug her.

She didn't spend much time with the hug, before hurriedly accepting the inheritance.

As soon as she clicked the accept b.u.t.ton, something looking like white mist left her body. It slowly exited through the s.p.a.ce between her brows, before forming into a small little pig.

Seeing the form, she looked disappointed, but before she could voice her disappointment, the shape changed into that of a little monkey. It then slowly rotated through a mult.i.tude of shapes, each of them was the shape of a little animal. Some of them she liked, whiles others made her disappointed. Finally, the speed of it switching shape slowed down, until it finally settled on something that looked like a cute little kitten.

As soon as the shape was settled, a lot more mist started to come out of her body, infusing into the little kitten. Besides that, there was a steady flow of energy coming from somewhere else. It felt similar to the energy they usually absorbed, while using Training Skills, just much purer. Slowly a pitch black kitten formed in front of Jane. Just when it had nearly finished forming, Ivan felt something burning inside him. It was as if his blood had suddenly turned into lava. Spreading from his heart, it speedily advanced through his body, creating an increasing amount of pain.

He screamed out in pain, startling the woman, who had focused all her attention on her daughter and the kitten she was forming. Turning towards him, she was shocked by the sight. Just a second ago he had looked normal, but now his veins were bulging and wriggling like something was trying to escape from them. But it didn't end there, as there was steam coming from his body, and this steam was blood red.

"What happened?", she asked, her voice tinged with concern. She might not like him, but he was after all Janes father.

Ivan was in too much pain to answer, and even if he were able to, he too had no clue as to what happened.

Getting no response she got closer to him, but to her shock, he started to emit a crazy amount of heat. Throwing a quick look at her daughter, to check if she was ok, she then focused on observing him. But the only thing she could do was look on, as his situation once again changed.

Similarly to what happened to his daughter, the mist too started to take shape. But unlike her mist, his mist didn't circle through different shapes but directly formed the shape of a lizard. Like Janes it became deep black, while it formed, but with red patterns.

With the formation of the lizard, his body stopped giving off steam and while his veins were still unnatural, it looked like the wriggling weakened. Just when Lara, thought that his condition was getting better, suddenly he spasmed and the veins on his arms burst open, splattering blood everywhere. And a scream filled with an indescribable agony echoed through the villa.

"s.h.i.+t!", she cursed. She then pulled out her phone and hurriedly called over the family doctor as well as her uncle. She then told her housekeeper, Madam Tanner, to take Jane to the living room.

Madam Tanner had been shocked, when she saw the blood-spattered room, after bursting into the room, but she soon got a grip on herself and took the little girl on her arm to carry her out. Luckily Jane was still out of it. It seemed like condensing her pet, which was now sleeping in her arms, had taken a lot out of her. While she was oblivious to her surroundings during the process, now it was just deep exhaustion, that stopped her from registering anything around her.

Since he hadn't bled beside the initial outburst, and she didn't want to move him, before the doctor had checked him out, she could only wait. Using the time, she cast 'Clean' on herself. The skill was very useful since it could easily clean clothes, without the need to wash them. Not only did it work on clothes, but also everything else. It was just that it used a lot of mana.

After casting the skill, the room once again became clean, as the blood stains vanished. But surprisingly the red stains on her white s.h.i.+rt didn't completely vanish. Instead, they had changed into elegantly looking patterns, that reminded her of the runes, she had seen on equipment found in some of the higher ranked dungeons.

Wondering what this was about, and since the doctor wasn't here yet, she decided to use inspect to check it out.

< b.l.o.o.d.y="" s.h.i.+rt,="" grade="">

This s.h.i.+rt has been stained by the blood of Ivan Hope during the first time his bloodline mutated. Mysteriously these bloodstains have formed Ancient Blood Runes on the s.h.i.+rt.

Can only be worn and inspected, by females with a family connection with Ivan Hope.

Effect: Chaos s.h.i.+eld (Pa.s.sive), Self Cleaning (Pa.s.sive), Self Repairing (Pa.s.sive)

Energy: (70/100) Grade F

Energy is used to activate the effects and can be recharged by injecting blood into the Ancient Blood Runes. Blood has to contain the Spiritual Chaos Dragon bloodline.

When she saw the description that popped up she was stunned. * What the h.e.l.l?? * This was only a common s.h.i.+rt she had bought in a normal shop and now, because some blood had spattered on it, it changed into a Unique grade item?

Besides that, there were some weird things about the description. It was much more detailed than usual and it was filled with information, that she hadn't heard about before, which was unusual for the 'Inspect' skill, since it took normaly only took the knowledge one had, together with some extrapolations and then created a short and precise description. But in this case, it seemed like most of the information came from the system, which was nice, but puzzling.

Anyway, the most important thing was that it told her what had happened to Ivan. Although even with this information, she still couldn't clearly understand, what happened, and why it had happened. She had heard about bloodlines from her father, and she knew that her own family had one too. Her father hadn't told her which one, since according to the family rules, she would only be eligible to know after she had reached level 1000. She could guess that Ivan's bloodline had undergone some changes, which had most likely been triggered by Jane forming her Spirt Pet.

"Oh, right.", she had completely forgotten about the lizard that he had formed. It now laid on his chest, deep asleep. She took a closer look at it and unlike she had first thought, it wasn't black. Its color was a dark gray, which was only interrupted by dark red. Similar to the red on her s.h.i.+rt, they too seemed to form runes.

"I wonder what these are.", she wondered while tracing them. The skin of the lizard felt surprisingly comfortable to the touch, as it was warm and smooth, evoking her desire to stroke it some more.
