Obtaining Legendray Dragon Template At The Start As A Side-Character!-Chapter 25: Purity of Bloodline II
A beautiful woman, strikingly tall, with a long and slender figure that naturally pulled every gaze toward her.
A calm and soft smile rested on her face; a smile that looked warm on the surface, yet stood in clear contrast to her cold and sharp eyes, eyes that seemed used to cutting into a person’s spirit even before her sword ever moved.
Her lips were well-shaped and slightly full, carrying an alluring look; not exaggerated, but just enough to keep the mind focused on them longer than necessary.
Her long hair was carefully tied back, with a few loose strands resting near her neck, moving gently with every calm step she took.
She wore black, formal military clothes, and on the right side of her chest was a symbol of the Vorhelm Clan flag.
She was what one could truly call a dangerous beauty, and she truly was dangerous.
’She should not be here.’ Reinh frowned slightly. The frown disappeared quickly, but it still caught Arceus’s attention.
’Why should she not be here, kid? And who is she? She is strong, but I smell heavy war from her,’ Arceus said while glancing at the woman.
’She is one of the craziest members of this Clan. Her name is Evelin Vorhelm. One of the Marshals of the Black Knights Legion. An eight-ring knight, and a war and battle maniac.’
’But this is not her job. Internal matters like this event belong to the Internal Council,’ Reinh explained briefly.
The Vorhelm Clan has five major military institutions, all under the control and supervision of the Supreme Security Council.
Alongside these five institutions, there is also an organization called the Internal Council, which is responsible for internal security and internal affairs of the Clan.
The woman standing before him now was one of the Marshals of the Black Knights, one of the five military institutions considered elite legions.
So why was she here? In his past life, this woman was not the one in charge of this event.
’Another change,’ he thought. After a moment, he calmed down. The change was not big enough to be a threat to him.
"Did you also get attracted by her beauty? She is really beautiful! When I first came here, I saw her too. But I suggest you don’t stare too much. I did that once, and I even confessed my love to her," Aron suddenly whispered excitedly into Reinh’s ear.
"But she beat me so badly that I couldn’t walk for days," he added, his voice becoming scared and quieter at the end.
"You talk too much." Reinh turned and gave his distant cousin an empty look, then ignored him again and focused on the woman.
"Oh? Looks like there are many of you. No problem. Come one by one and test your blood purity," Evelin said in a female but rough voice, explaining the process without any ceremony.
The young people looked at each other, clearly confused.
"Excuse me, ma’am, shouldn’t you introduce yourself first? Or something like that?" a voice suddenly came from one of the lines.
"Who said that?" Evelin asked harshly.
The one who spoke tried to hide, but when the crowd turned, he was exposed. Evelin walked to him and kicked his leg before he could react.
"Ahhh!" the boy screamed in pain.
"Throw him out," Evelin ordered the guards, then returned to her place.
"Anyone else have questions? Or do we start?" she asked loudly.
This time, no one dared to speak. Everyone had learned the lesson.
"She’s really rough, huh. That’s why she’ll never find a husband, tsk tsk," Aron whispered mockingly so only Reinh could hear.
The next moment, the first person stepped forward and stood before the basin, with the hanging blade in front of him.
"Cut your finger with the blade and drop one drop of blood into the basin," Evelin said in the same tone.
The young man nodded, cut his finger, and dropped a single drop of blood into the basin.
The basin immediately began to glow, first orange, then yellow, and then it stopped. The examiner looked inside and shook her head impatiently.
"Blood purity: 57 percent. Next."
The young man sighed in relief, then felt disappointed, but he did not dare waste time and quickly left.
Others followed.
"Blood purity: 52 percent."
"Blood purity: 61 percent."
"Blood purity: 49 percent."
"Blood purity: 59 percent."
"Blood purity: 55 percent." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Soon, more than half of the youths had finished. The highest was 61 percent, and no one exceeded it.
"Looks like most of these are trash. Not even one above 70 percent, let alone 90," Evelin muttered in dissatisfaction.
She only came because she was bored, hoping to find a genius. She did not expect all of them to be trash.
Higher blood purity meant more innate talents and more traits from the blessed Vorhelm body.
Above 90 percent meant a confirmed genius, the best of the best.
"Hm? That girl looks familiar."
"Why do I feel like I’ve seen her before?"
"Are you idiots? She’s the Patriarch’s youngest daughter. Her name is Diana."
"The girl rumored to be a genius? The one who defeated a one-ring mana user at age twelve?"
"That’s her!"
Everyone’s attention turned to the girl stepping forward.
A girl with long black hair, pale white skin, and bright blue eyes. Her height was normal for her age. Though still a child, her delicate face showed that she would become very beautiful in the future.
Even Evelin fixed her gaze on her, her eyes shining slightly. This girl was the younger sister of that one. Maybe her blood purity would exceed 80 percent.
"Nice to meet you, Princess," Evelin said calmly. Her tone was still informal, but clearly gentler than before.
"I am also very happy to meet you, Lady Evelin," Diana replied with a royal smile, causing a smile to appear on the Marshal’s face.
Diana stepped forward, cut her finger, and dropped a drop of blood into the basin.
"What do you think her blood purity will be?"
"Definitely above 70 percent!"
"Only 70? I say even 80 percent is possible. After all, she’s his sister."
The blood in the basin quickly changed from red to yellow, then green. It did not stop. It turned blue, and then quickly purple.
Evelin’s eyes shone as she looked at the girl like she was a treasure.
"Blood purity: 89 percent!"
