While Azazel was slaughtering Michael's potential foes dressed as the Dark Lord, Michael sat in his room with Elidyr, enjoying the experience points. By killing the three sect leaders, Michael earned 1.5million badass points. Since the level cap to reach the next level in the Fusion stage was 800,000 experience points after the system upgrade, he leveled up once. Currently, Michael was a Fusion stage level 8 cultivator with just a hundred thousand experience points away from reaching level 9.

Michael leaned back on his chair, watching Elidyr drawing glowing runes on the floor. Under the red carpet, Elidyr created an array that would let Michael travel between the Akilan Realm and the outside world.

"Is it ready yet?" asked Michael.

"Do you know how many defense arrays are around Mazeroth?" Elidyr answered Michael's question with a question of his own.

"No idea," Michael shrugged.

"One hundred and twenty-eight. It's not simply to pass through all of them undetected. So give me some time," Elidyr sounded annoyed.

"You don't have to be a bitch about it," Michael chuckled. He was in a good mood despite his current situation. If he didn't break through to the Half Immortal stage in six months, his life would be reset. Thanks to Rowena, he had more than enough time to reach the Half Immortal stage. The big obstacle that stood between him and reaching the Half Immortal stage was system upgrade. Luckily, he had upgraded the system. So he only needed approximately one million experience points to reach the Half Immortal stage. In other words, he was just a one Fusion stage kill away from the Half Immortal stage. Hopefully, Azazel would find some targets to slaughter.

"What's your plan for Adelia? Are you any closer to finding a cure for vampirism?" asked Elidyr. Ever since he heard what happened to Adelia, he has been nagging Michael to find Adelia. It wasn't like Michael didn't want to find Adelia. He almost lost his life trying to find her. Rather, Adelia was clever enough to hide from the rest of the world for years. His best bet was to find the Wise dragon residing somewhere in the treacherous ocean.

However, when it comes to curing the vampires, Michael had other plans. The vampires were a deadly force to be reckoned with. If he had an army of vampires, he would be unstoppable. Curing them would turn them into mere mortals, which was a waste of such a powerful force. Hence, Michael wanted to get rid of their weaknesses instead of stripping their power.

"What's the point of curing them when I can make them better?"

Elidyr stopped working on the array for a moment to look at Michael. His eyes glimmered with shock.

"What do you mean?" Elidyr creased his brows.

"Think about it. All I have is enemies. Everywhere I turn, I see nothing but people who want my head on a pike. The guardians, the Skyhall, the vampires, the queen, and her minions, and tomorrow, there will be someone else. The order is still in the baby phase. I am sick of having too many enemies and too little help. So I am going to build an army of vampires. I just need to get rid of their lust for blood and weakness for the sunlight. Once I do that, they won't be just cured. They'd be better," said Michael. Elidyr sensed the excitement in his voice.

Unfortunately, Elidyr wasn't convinced by Michael's reasoning.

"What about people like Adelia? Those who were forced to be a vampire?"

"Wow, did you drop your brain today? You're not listening to me. If you take away the blood lust and weakness for sunlight from a vampire, they will be just cultivators," Michael leaned forward, slapping the back of Elidyr's back.

"In other words, I am curing them," said Michael.

"As long as they don't have any side effects. After all, she is your family," Elidyr hissed.

"I almost died for her. That's not enough?" Michael slowly shook his head.

"Come on, let's go. We have a damn class to attend. I feel like a school kid," Michael rubbed his temples. He was frustrated thinking about attending classes, especially the useless ones like close combat, spell casting, and history of cultivation. The only subject that interested Michael was Alchemy, unlike almost all the students in the House of Alchemy. They all hated Lane. Speaking of Lane, Professor Lane interrogated Michael about the blood prince and how he came into contact with one.

Although Michael was an excellent liar, he didn't take the risk of lying to Lane. Thus, Michael told him everything except the part where he met the vampires to find Adelia. Since it was all true, Lane believed Michael. Surprisingly, he also advised Michael to stay as far as possible from the vampires. Furthermore, he also asked a few things about Voldigards. Michael still couldn't believe Lane was Julien Voldigard's uncle. Apparently, Lane left the family for some reason after a fallout with Julien's father. If Lane didn't leave the Voldigard family, Lane would have been the family head, not Julien's father.

Since Michael and Lane were close, Michael told Lane about Eve's curse. A partial reason for telling Lane about the curse was to change the topic from the vampires. Because of Michael's decision to tell Lane, as the head of House Alchemists, Lane granted Michael two weeks' leave. So could leave MAzeroth for the Treacherous Ocean whenever he wanted.

He was just waiting to reach Fusion Stage level 9. Then, he would leave for the treacherous Ocean. Unfortunately, Gaya had to stay in Mazeroth, to avoid raising suspicion. Michael was still figuring out how to tell Gaya to stay. When it comes to her mother, she was an adamant person. Soon, Elidyr and Michael navigated through the corridors and reached the combat classroom.

Many of the House Alchemists students greeted Michael with waves and fist bumps. As usual, Michael and Elidry went straight to the last bench and put down their books and quills on the table. The two of them leaned back against the wall, closing their eyes to take a short nap. In the entire classroom, only they liked to sit on the last bench and nap during Gaya's class. The others were too scared even to bat an eye once she had entered the classroom.

Thirty minutes passed in a blink of an eye. Many thought Professor Steinmeyer missed the class. Even Michael wondered where Gaya went. His train of thought was cut short by a gentle voice.

"Excuse me," Michael heard a girl's voice. At first, he thought the voice was coming from the table next to them. He was proven wrong when someone tapped his shoulder twice.

Elidyr was long asleep to the point he was snoring. Michael, on the other slowly opened his eyes. A blonde girl with bubbly eyes stared at him. She held the books against her chest and wore emerald green robes which meant she was an alchemist. But Michael had never seen her before.

"Can I sit here?" she asked. Michael looked around the classroom and found several empty benches, especially among the girls. So Michael wondered why the hell this girl wanted to sit next to him on the last bench at that.

"Knock yourself out," Michael sighed and slid aside. After all, he didn't own the classroom to tell the girl to scurry off.

To Michael's surprise, the girl smiled after sitting next to him and extended her hand to shake his hand.

"I am Ruby,"

As soon as Michael heard the name, it flooded his mind with memories he had buried deep in his head.

"Ruby," The images of Ruby in Michael's orphanage flashed across his eyes. She was like a big sister to Michael. He killed for the first time in his life to protect Ruby.

Even before transmigrating to this strange new world, Michael visited Ruby to ensure she was happy. For a few moments, Michael's mind was filled with the memories of Ruby. He remained silent until the girl waved her hand before his face.

"Hello,"

Michael snapped back to reality.

"We don't actually say our names here," said Michael.

The girl grimaced.

"Ah, I completely forgot about that. Keep this between ourselves okay?" said the girl.

Michael nodded. He had zero clues that the girl was none other than Rowena Winston. The spell she cast on herself was too powerful for the Environmental scanning or the X-ray eyes to see through her disguise. After saving Michael with the Cold Flames, she decided to spend some time with the person who saved her family not once but three times. Furthermore, she felt some strange connection with Ghost when she sent the Cold Flames into his body.

She wanted to find the root cause of this strange new feeling.

"Is he always like this?" Ruby asked, looking at Elidyr.

Michael smiled.

"Pretty much," said Michael.

"I am not very good at Alchemy," said Ruby.

"So, will you be able to help me if I'm stuck at some point?"

Michael looked at her. She seemed genuinely asking for his help. Usually, Michael would avoid teaching anyone except Olivia, but the name Ruby was kinda his weakness. So Michael sighed inside and nodded.

"Will do,"

Once again, Michael and Rowena shook each other's hands without knowing the truth. This was the beginning of Rowena and Michael's relationship. Unfortunately, they both didn't know where it would take them.
