Chapter 28: Turmoil in the Mansion
"My lord!" Lyra approached Cain as she flew down and landed in front of him and bowed deeply.
"I-I'm sorry. Because of my carelessness, Dante lost his left hand. Please punish me, My Lord!"
Lyra apologized in a trembling voice, as she didn't know Cain's personality and that she might even lose her life or at least get punished severely because of it.
"Don't worry about it, just take it as a lesson this time. However, I don't want to see something like this happen again in the future. Do you understand?" Cain waved his hand and only took a glance at Lyra.
"I understand, My Lord!"
Cain then looked in Nix's direction as he remembered something and immediately called Nix to come over and bring Elara as he noticed that Nix had killed the MadDog, who had been surprised by him.
"Oh right, remove your prison away." Dante ordered Lyra as he snapped his fingers again, creating two small white transparent flames that were the same size as the previous one.
However, when he was about to torture the Fire Foxes, he immediately stopped and looked in the direction of his clone that he left on his home.
"These people finally make a move, huh?" Cain mumbled to himself with a sneer.
"It seems that I need to wrap things up quickly." Cain sighed.
He then took back the two small white flames before raising his right hand as if using it as a sword and covering it with ferocious crimson red flames.
Cain felt the temperature of the surroundings rising significantly as his hand was covered with the flames.
Subsequently, he swung his hand down and up in a row as if using it as the sword and released two 10-meter big flames with a crescent moon shape, aiming each of them at the foxes.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
When Cain released the flames, the foxes instantly felt the extreme danger from them.
Unfortunately for them, as they were still overwhelmed by the fear and couldn't move even if they wanted to, the flames immediately penetrated the fox's body into two swiftly and continued to move forward and slashed everything that blocked their parth until its energy ran out.
The foxes bodies were split into two, and the blood evaporated as the flames burned the body and even the blood that was spilled over from it.
Not only that, as the flames were too strong, they even burned one-fifth of the body, starting from the part that was split into two.
Subsequently, Cain took the corpse and immediately made another move to kill the lion, as he was in a rush at the moment.
"Roar!"
Nix landed in front of him, with Elara riding on its back.
"Nix, I'm sorry that I've made you suffer like this." Cain petted Nix's head as he looked at the small wounds across his body, particularly at the front body part.
The thing that made him sorry was not entirely about his visible wounds, but rather because he used [Dragonheart Ignition] and his bloodline that already had defects just became worse, resulting in Nix becoming harder to advance in the future.
However, that's the case with most people since they don't have Cain's talent and system.
"Yo, system… How could I help Nix and Dante to recover? And also regarding Dante's left hand, surely there will be a medicine that could help him regrow his left hand or something similar, right?" Cain asked the system, as he knew that the system would know about it.
The little fluffy creature appeared in front of him, hovering in the air as it looked at Cain with a complicated expression and sighed.
"The first thing that you need to do is to help them recover the blood essence they had lost. As for Dante's situation, it was rather simple.
You just need to extract your blood essence in a small amount and dilute it a few times and… You know what? Nevermind that, I will help you later with this.
However, with Nix's situation, you need Ice Dragon's blood essence and let Nix refine it. As for the amount of the blood, it depends on the strength of the dragon itself.
And lastly, regarding Dante's left hand, there are a lot of medicine pills out there that could help him regrow his left hand without leaving any hidden injuries." The little fluffy creature explained to him slowly.
"Thanks for explaining it clearly. Btw, I noticed that I didn't receive any rewards after I and Nix killed the beasts, can you give it to me now?" Cain asked with a high expectation, as he wanted to see what kind of rewards he would receive after killing these beasts.
"Cough!"
"Cough!"
The little fluffy creature coughed when it heard it and immediately explained to him in detail, "Uhumm… Unfortunately you wouldn't get any rewards this time around except with Dante's early kill because you got a cooldown penalty, which resulted in you not being able to receive any rewards for the next 24 hours.
And the reason you got that penalty was because I broke the rule in helping you to use the summoning chances since if I didn't do that, all of you would definitely be dead by now."
The little creature explained proudly as it crossed its hand with a smug expression.
"Well, thank you... I didn't know about that." Cain nodded and asked again as he suddenly had a question in his mind.
"Btw, why didn't you remind me that something like this might happen since we're not in a safe place? Shouldn't you also be at fault here?"
"Cough!"
"Cough!"
"Hmmph! It's your stupid fault because you can't judge the situation you're in and even made me break a rule for you!" The little creature coughed again and looked at the side as it wasn't happy with Cain questioning it.
"Anyway, I already answered your questions. So, I am going to go now…
By the way, I have a very important suggestion and information for you. Become stronger as fast as you can because there will be an unknown disaster coming for you sooner or later. Remember this!"
The little creature said hastily and immediately vanished into thin air.
