Chapter 1367: The Clan

A decision was made and with that, the cargo ship started to ascend to continue the journey. The ship would reach its closest point to the target planet in four hours. That's the time they had left to prepare.

There was some discussion about spending more time on more runs in virtual training. However, the idea was quickly sidelined as not only was their current situation very urgent, but simulations in the virtual world would arguably never be the same as real-life situations.

As for Silva, who decided not to join the mission, Eeshoo, as the leader, didn't think much of her decision as he didn't think her absence would affect them significantly. Everyone agreed that no one should be forced to join such a mission, so things would be carried out with her out of the plan.

Emery certainly would not force her to change her mind either. Still, he wanted to talk to her about it. But before he could, Patriarch Lucius summoned him to a meeting and, as the patriarch of his bloodline, Emery couldn't refuse the invitation.

"I have heard so many good things about you." With a serious expression, Lucius patted Emery's shoulder, "You have come a long way, kid. You are making me and every member of the Wolf bloodline in the universe proud."

Emery showed a surprised expression upon hearing the patriarch's words. It seemed that despite being undercover these past few years, the man had quite extensive knowledge about him and his achievements. Emery then had a pleasant talk with the man and learned more about the Wolf bloodline as a whole.

As it turned out, among the seven realms of the universe, there were more than a thousand planets that were home to wolf bloodline's communities, with thirty of them where the Wolf dominated the planet. The biggest one had nearly a billion wolf half-bloods, governed by their own monarch – King and Queen.

"It has been hundreds of years since we had another Rank 8 bloodline amidst our kin. For your information, there are less than 100 individuals like you amongst the 10 billion of us. It's a big privilege."

Various thoughts popped into Emery's mind as their conversation continued. Patriarch Lucius had indeed told him in the past that he himself possessed a limit of Mythical Rank 7 bloodline. Hearing all these facts he didn't know about his bloodline couldn't help but make his blood churn, he really wished to meet the others of the Wolf bloodline.

"I heard that you have decided not to return to your home in order to participate in this mission." Saying those words, the man paused for a moment before adding, "Don't you worry, after all this is over, I promise I will take you to my home, the Corvin clan."

He stared at Emery and solemnly said, "There, I will give all my attention to guide you to become the strongest Alpha the world has ever seen. With your unique bloodline, I firmly believe it is possible."

Emery was taken aback by the extremely generous offer. After all, the chronic problem regarding his spirit cores still plagued him. Moreover, Patriarch Lucius was one of the people who knew about his condition.

As if the patriarch read his mind, the man said, "About your spirit core, I never said that it cannot be done. It's just that the circumstances are different now. Not only do you have a unique Rank 8 bloodline, after what you did in the tournament, you are basically a hero in the eyes of our people, Emery."

"Do you understand what I'm saying, Emery?" Seeing Emery's expression, he said.. "I promise you that we will do whatever we can, by all means, to ensure you have a successful breakthrough. Not just into the magus realm, but also the grand magus realm, a figure stronger than me."

Although caught off guard, Emery was naturally delighted to hear those words and it showed on his face. However, after thinking about the matter, to Patriarch Lucius' surprise, Emery turned down the offer.

"Thank you, Patriarch. I am very grateful for your generous offer. However, I have planned to do everything I can to return home after all of this is over."

Needless to say, the patriarch was slightly dumbfounded by Emery's answer. He couldn't believe he had received such an answer. Unfortunately for him, there was nothing more Emery could say. After all, he couldn't explain the Primordial Wisp Khaos that awaited him at home.

On the other hand, Patriarch Lucius thought that Emery's refusal was because of a recent problem on the young wolf's home planet.

"I heard about the situation regarding a caretaker position that you have with the Nephilim. While it's true that the Wolf bloodline can't compare to such a prominent faction, trust my words. If you manage to break through to the 8 rank, you will have a lot of bargaining power to use in something like this."

The middle-aged man gave Emery a very convincing argument. It was indeed an option he could do if he couldn't get home.

Realizing he couldn't come up with much to explain his choice to return, Emery decided to let the man know he would consider the offer carefully.

Seeing the concession from Emery's side, Patriarch Lucius didn't say much and only sighed because he knew he shouldn't push Emery anymore. He then said, "I understand. I know I can't force you to choose your path. But for now, I might be able to help you survive better for the mission."

The patriarch explained there was a way he could make Emery become stronger in basically no time and that was to make him part of the inner circle of his pack. The beta wolf.

"That way, you'll get some of my ancestor's genes, which will make your wolf bloodline much stronger."

The man gave him no opportunity to refuse the offer. Emery was led into a room by Patriarch Lucius, where the man then took out a scroll and cut his palm open. Using the blood that had come out of the wound, he smeared the scroll and then onto Emery's back into some kind of runes. Emery was then told to follow a certain chant.

The process was very similar to the [Bloodmoon Ritual] that Emery had performed with the Fey girls at home to become the alpha of the pack. The difference this time was that instead of Emery sharing his power with the girls, it was Patriarch Lucius who did so.

It didn't take long for Emery to feel a reaction. His blood started to boil, the urge inside started to emerge and his body started to transform without his will. Dark fur appeared on its body, while claws and fangs made their appearance.

HOOWWLLLL!!!

The ritual was forcibly pulling all of Emery's bloodline strength, transforming him into the beast. Patriarch Lucius was startled by the strength the young wolf showed upon transformation. The latter was so strong that it forced the patriarch to activate his transformation himself. Golden fur appeared on the middle-aged man's body as he tried to rein in Emery.

Soon enough a familiar notification came into his mind.

[Your Bloodline went through purifying changes.]

It had been quite a while since the vision came to Emery. This time, he saw a dominating golden wolf standing tall on top of a cliff, howling at the twilight wolf.

There was resistance from the two opposing wolves at first, but the golden wolf was simply too powerful. Soon after, the twilight – shadow and light – wolf bowed its head down and followed the long howl.

It was as if they had finally synchronized and multiple notifications came into his mind.

[You have received the mark of the Golden Wolf]

[You are now the Beta wolf of the Corvus pack]

[Calculating ancestor blood essence percentage…]

[Analyzing genes]

[37% twilight fey wolf essence found]

[Genes purified]

[Twilight Fey gene essence percentage increased to 42%]

Being part of a grand magus level half-blood with a full Rank 7 bloodline genes, Emery obtained powerful enhancement to his own bloodline: a mind-boggling 5% increase in total. It was such a high boost, just several more and Emery could finally upgrade from his rank 6 fey Warlock rank.

[Battle power increase exponentially]

[Spirit force increase exponentially]

[Increase resistance to mental attacks]

[Emery Ambrose]

[Battle power: 284 (314)]

[Spirit force: 1914 (1948)]

Emery's battle power and spirit force both got a huge boost from that upgrade, which was a surprise beyond expectation. As for the mental resistance, it was something very useful when he had to face a grand magus individual.

The process took a full three hours and when it finally ended, Emery felt himself reborn. Patriarch Lucius stared at him, "Now that you are the beta of my pack, that means you are now part of my family. My brother in blood"

To be a brother to such a prominent figure would be a fortune for Emery's future.
