Blood Evolution System

Iris had gained permission from the academy, not only for herself but also for all the people who agreed to help John get a fruit a life, to go out of the academic ground for nearly two weeks. The receptionist did ask her why and where she was going with the others, but she gave the receptionist a false reply. She wasn\'t willing to break the truth of the Tomb Of Roselia to the staff of the military academy as they would most likely tail them.

Not a lot of people knew about the tomb of Rosalia and its location, especially not the ordinary members of the military and its affiliates. And as a member of the Twilight Temple, Iris has no intention of letting this information be made public. Since otherwise, it will aggravate the greed of many people. Some people with no chance of surviving an encounter with monsters in the demonic. And some that would do anything to get the treasures of Roselia.

And it was the type of greed that blinds a person, leading them to make irresponsible decisions and take actions that lead to their death.

Iris didn\'t want any unnecessary blood on her hand and neither do the temple or the higher-ups of the society, so they didn\'t make this knowledge public.

"Keep these documents safe with you," Iris Twilight said as she passed a few pieces of paper to all of them.

The documents verify that the military permits them to enter the restricted zone as they like and also that they gained two weeks of vacation from the military academy.

They accepted the papers and stored them in their spatial devices. And yes, they all have one now as they purchased it with the contribution points they earned over the past few weeks.

"Halt! Where are you going so late at night?"

The guard at the gate stopped them when he saw them approaching. They told the guard that have gained permission from the academy to go out. The guard asked for proof, and each of them gave him one of the documents.

The guard looked at it, and seeing the legal green seal at the end of it, he opened the gates for them, allowing them to head out of the academy.

Just as they were going out of the gates, a shadow came out of nowhere and suddenly hugged Leilani.

"Huh?" Leilani felt someone hugging her from behind and she turned to look at the said person with a somewhat confused look on her face. However, the confusion left her pretty face when she saw who it was.

"What are you doing here?" Leilani said as she patted Lisa on the head.

"I want to go with you too," Lisa said, blinking her eyes at her, pleading with her mama to take her away from this place.

She was taken in by the Nursing Department of the military academy, a place run by instructor Kayle. She and the other staff members were taking care of Lisa in a lot of ways, but they were also forcing her to study several hours a day, for Lisa talent at memorizing and comprehending various kinds of knowledge was one of a kind. Instructor Kayle believed that it will only take Lisa a few years to master all the professions of a supporter and become the best there is in the Federation.

"We are going to someplace dangerous, so you can\'t come with us," Vincent said in a calm voice, telling Lisa that it was impossible for them to take her to a restricted zone.

"Can I, please?" Lisa asked as she looked at them with her bright eyes.

"Nope, you can\'t." Varth said, "My spaceship doesn\'t have any seat for a kid that is still learning English."

Lisa\'s pointy ears trembled as she felt that he was mocking her, and she pointed her finger at him before she spoke, "You meanie!"

Leilani pacified her in a few minutes by telling her that she will take her out of the academy to enjoy life in the city if she listens to her.

"Pinky Promise?" Lisa said as she extended her pinky finger towards her.

"Alright," Leilani said before their pinky fingers intertwined.

After the pinky promise, Lisa hugged her and said in her ears, "I wish you good luck mama."

A smile blossomed on Leilani\'s face as she hugged her back, and a few moments later, she stood up and headed out of the academy with the others.

"Goodbye! Come back home safely!" Lisa said out loud in her pleasant voice as she waved them goodbye.

Vincent, Leilani, Peter, Iris, Nevis, and Varth made their way to a vacant spot outside of the city, and after reaching there, Varth summoned his spaceship from his storage device. The door to the triangular spaceship opened and a stairway slid out of its entrance, extending till its base hit the ground, which they took to enter it.

Piloted by King Wrath, who was hiding under the fake name of Varth, the spaceship hovered above the ground

It reached the clouds in the night sky, and then it accelerated forward, cutting through the air as It charged towards the restricted zone of Monster Lord Tarantula.

Once they reached a few meters away from the restricted zone, the spaceship descended from the skies, landing just a few steps away from the outer part of the land ruled by Monster Lord Tarantula.

The Federation has divided this restricted zone into three parts. First off, the spider kingdom, a place where the monster lord lives with his monstrous wives, descendants, and his people. It was also the place most abundant in natural treasures such as magic herbs, plants, and other precious edible things.

The soldiers referred to the area outside the kingdom as the inner circle of the restricted zone. Monsters not belonging to the spider family inhabited this place. That didn\'t mean they were weak in any sense. They were strong but not at the monster lord realm.

However, they were all above the fifth realm of the demonic realm!

The last area was the outskirts, a place inhabited by a lot of beasts in between the first level of the magical realm to the fifth level of the demonic realm. These beasts didn\'t live inside the inner circle as they were easy prey to the other beasts. So, they lived in the safe and homely outer circle.

"And we need to pass through the outskirts of Tarantula\'s kingdom to reach the waterfall valley which connects to the Mysterious Violet Forest," Iris explained while looking at the others, who were treading the rocky ground with uneven spots on foot.

"Then, let\'s go!" Nevis said, feeling excited about the adventure that awaits.

"Wait! Before entering the outskirts, we must use this magic scroll on ourselves." Iris said as she handed over a magic scroll to everyone.

"What is this?" Nevis asked, wondering what type of magic scroll he is holding in his hand.

"It\'s a presence-concealing magic scroll. It will suppress our bodily scent and lower our presence which will help us go unnoticed by a lot of beasts." Iris explained, motioning them once again to use it before entering the outskirts.

When they were just a few steps away from the outskirts of the Spider Kingdom, they activated the magic scroll on themselves.

The scrolls glowed in brilliant lights as golden words burst out of them, binding around their bodies, sealing their scents, and lowering their presence. The glow around the words dimmed in a while, making them look almost transparent.

Vincent patted himself here and there, unable to grasp the chains around his body. So, he realized that they are intangible.

That\'s when they entered the outskirts in a hurry, worried that they might attract beasts and get into a useless conflict before even entering it.

The terrain of the outskirts seemed too different from the rocky and barren outside. It was a place with a lot of overgrown weeds and grasses. There were only a few pathways in between the mess of greenery, stretching all the way to as far as their eyes could see.

Several minutes later, Varth suddenly heard a rapid rustling sound from within the overgrown grasses. This type of sound wasn\'t from wind rustling against the overgrown green life. It was of a body brushing past the thick grasses in their surroundings. It felt almost as if something was making its way towards them.

"Something\'s coming our way!" Vincent said, motioning the others to stand on guard.

As they heard his words, they summoned their weapons from their spatial devices, holding them in their hands.

Just at that very moment, a black shadow flew out from within the greenery behind them, along with a mighty lion roar. The target of its sudden pounce was none other than Leilani.
