Chapter 21

"Bloodline Change Potions?"

Arabel and Idan were amazed when they received this award from the System. They realized that the System had not planned to issue it initially. They clearly heard the System explain that this award was bestowed upon them due to the interference of the Title of "Supreme".

Hosts, this is one of the most valuable rewards that can be obtained for completing tasks. Initially, it was only available at the later high levels of the System in this world. However, due to the interference of the title of "Supreme", the award was given earlier. The system strongly recommends that you use the potion no earlier than you reach level 10. Until then, refrain and save it. To fully assimilate the potion and bloodline integrations, you will need a safe and secluded place for a long time.

"Okay," they agreed with the System's suggestion.

"But I'm interested in something, the System. What are the bloodlines of Alphas and Valkyries?" asked Arabel, curiously examining the potion that could change her into a Valkyrie. The potion was enclosed in an exquisite and luxurious opaque vial. Because of her curiosity, she almost opened the bottle to inhale the fragrance of the potion, as she did with perfume.

There are many different races in this world: humans, beastmen, dragons, elves, dwarves, and many others. Unlike in your home world, there is diversity here. To understand the reason for this diversity, you will have to investigate this issue yourself. This question concerns the secrets of the world that the System is forbidden to talk about.

From this explanation, the couple realized that the System could not provide them with any information. Now they have to figure out how much information the System is capable of providing.

It's no secret in this world that the main path of cultivation is based on bloodlines. Among the many different bloodlines, the bloodlines of Alphas and Valkyries hold a special place as one of the most powerful.

"A path of cultivation based on bloodline? I wonder if we can follow this path if we drink this?" interjected Idan, hearing something that intrigued him.

, the System replied to Idan's question. The thought gave the couple anticipation and some temptation to immediately drink the potion and change their bloodline, but they held back.

Alphas are a race of superior humans born of magic. They are the ones who have comprehended magic at the highest level, and there is no race more talented in magic than them. Valkyries, on the other hand, are a race of warrior maidens made up exclusively of women.

Arabel was surprised and didn't quite understand.

"What do you mean, only women? What about them… How are they born?" asked Arabel, puzzled.

After hearing the System's explanation, Arabel looked at the potion in her hand with a complicated expression. Her mind was preoccupied with what she had just learned.

Just two kids? Are they all girls?

Although Arabel recently turned 18, she has not yet thought about starting a family and having children. She had just begun to develop an unusual relationship with Idan, and she had no far-reaching plans. She wanted to see if something would work out between them first.

However, even so, the thought that after consuming the potion in the future she would have a maximum of two children and only girls did not make her optimistic. She didn't want to take on such limitations for the sake of strength.

the System said, addressing Arabel privately, as if reading her mind.

Hearing this, Arabel felt inspired. She put the potion in the storage space and looked at Idan, who also put the potion away and turned his gaze on her.

The system has finally finished counting completed tasks and giving out rewards. Now they had only one active task left for the two of them, which they were given 6 months to complete.

Their main task now was what to do next. They were standing in the middle of a clearing in a mysterious forest, in a place that was unknown to them. The sun had already set, and it was dark all around.

Since their appearance, they have remained in one place, and so far no one and nothing has attacked them. This, of course, did not mean that the forest was not dangerous. However, wandering through the forest in such darkness was not the best option. Therefore, the couple decided to wait out the night in this clearing.

Fortunately, they were rewarded with everything they needed.

After briefly discussing the situation, they took out a tent from the adventurer's kit issued by the System and set it up with great difficulty.

Idan and Arabel were city dwellers who grew up in large metropolitan areas. They didn't leave the house very often, and spending the night in an unknown world where danger could lurk around every corner was a real challenge for them.

That's not to say they weren't scared.

The first thing they decided to do was change their clothes. Arabel went into the tent to change her clothes, and Idan stayed outside. He didn't wait for her to finish changing and come out, and started undressing right there.

He pulled out the set of adventurer's clothes that was meant for him and happily donned it. The size turned out to fit.

The set consisted of leather trousers, belts with multiple fasteners for small items, a dark shirt, a leather vest with pockets, a dark raincoat and comfortable boots. On top of these clothes, he put on small bracers made of an unknown metal. Idan chose a sword as his weapon — in his entire short life, apart from a knife, he had never held anything more dangerous in his hands.

Shortly after he finished changing clothes, Arabel came out of the tent.

She was wearing adventurer's clothes, which were similar in style to his own. She was wearing boots almost to her knees, tight trousers, belts, a black shirt with a vest and a raincoat in dark colors, the same as Idan's. She had a sword on her belt.

Now that they had changed their clothes, they really looked like a real couple.
