The Tales of Draconic Warlock

In addition to the promotion, there are a few issues in front of me. Some of the prominent ones are my Soul Energy and Bloodline.

I have no idea how to improve the Soul Energy. Well, I believe that there is a way to do so but I don't know if that's the best way or the worst way.

The sole reason that attribute appeared was because I devoured a demon soul. So there is a chance that I can improve my soul energy by devouring other souls. I mean I have a bunch of souls from not just the monsters that I killed but also the souls of the assassins, at least the ones that survived my interrogation.

In addition to that, I picked up more than a few lost souls wandering around. I threw them into the Soul Container to deal with them later.

I have no plans to do with them for now, but I collected them because, I don't think it would be a good idea for souls to wander the land of living unless it was the Ancestral Spiritual grounds, then they have a totally legitimate reason to wander around.

From that devouring session, I only know that maybe I can increase the Soul Energy but that wasn't a guarantee. Moreover, who is saying that there are no side effects? It was not a year since that happened, so I can't conclude that there weren't any side effects.

I mean I kind of consumed a demon's soul. Who's to say that my character was the same?

I have been in the forest without any human contact, well except for those five assassins. There was no way to compare my character if it had changed from before. I should slowly observe, and come to a conclusion before thinking about consuming those souls.

Moreover, I don't want to consume innocent souls. Most of the souls I have no idea are either good or bad. I can use the Soul Judge to determine whether one of those souls is innocent or not. The reason I didn't was because, anything related to souls, would consume the soul energy.

Sure it would recover after a few minutes, depending on how much was used, but there was a big gaping hole,

I have no idea about the concept of soul energy. I don't know whether the value I have is low or high. So I couldn't do that in the forest. What if the minimum value was 5,000 or something?

Would I get paralyzed if the value becomes less than the minimum?

There are many doubts in my mind that need to be cleared before he can use the skill or consume the souls. So the project to improve soul energy has to be shelved for now. Only my future self can pick that up again.

Bloodline on the other hand needs a variety of resources and I collected most of them while in the wilds.

Though mine is Dragon Bloodline, the Frostwolf family has a bloodline too and so there were books regarding bloodlines in the library. The only restriction to open those books was that one has to be awakened. Except for that, everything on bloodlines is open to all.

This was so because there was no restriction of ranks on bloodlines. Anyone can improve their bloodline once they successfully awaken their class. So the family didn't impose any restrictions on the knowledge. It was the same with the kingdom. The common knowledge about bloodlines was available to everyone, as long as they were awakened and could afford it.

The specifics would change from bloodline to bloodline. So only the family would know about their bloodlines.

This was where my mother came in. She has good knowledge about the bloodline. As both my mother and my sister Eritrea have Black Dragon Bloodline, they have knowledge about it, which made it easier for me to know about it without going to the Black family.

Since my mother already knew that my bloodline was the same as hers, she imparted to me the knowledge she knew about the Black Dragon Bloodline. So it was only a matter of collecting resources required for the process.

The issue was while improving the bloodline, one would feel immense pain throughout the body and would collapse due to exhaustion of mind and body.

If I tried to improve my bloodline in the forest, I would be in a vulnerable position, that could end my life. So I can't do those things in the forest. I had to wait until I returned home. Moreover, there were a few items that I needed to get my hands on to go through the process.

---

For ten days, I searched everywhere I could but I couldn't find anything that could solve my issues with the mission or the soul energy but I did find something that could help me with my bloodline. After ten days of work, I got my hands on the items that I needed.

I needed ten days because I couldn't let my family know that I was trying to improve my bloodline. It would become problematic. So, I made use of the time, to make sure that if there was someone following me, they wouldn't find out what I was up to.

I am ready to upgrade, but let's record my status first before I improve my bloodline. I can compare what exactly was that change with the improvement in bloodline.
