….

Leylin looked on intently as the two Bloodline Knight proceeded to breakthrough the hurdle of their physical limitations and joins the rank of the morning star.

Both Anna and Ivy didn’t bother to cover their bodies as they directly sat cross-legged and started to control the sentient force released in their body given by Leylin.

*Boom*

Dozens and dozens of spiritual crystals were crushed as raw energy emitted from them entering their body causing their undulation to tune berserk, with Leylin sentient force acting as an ignition for their bloodline, it flared and unique changes started to appear on their body.

Neither of them let out a groan even while suffering the head splitting pain of their blood boiling like magma but from their clenched teeths and shivering bodies Leylin could see that even with their supreme physical stats they were susceptible to the pain which haunts everyone who reaches this stage.

Even still they hold on as they continued to guide their body through the advancement.

‘Fascinating, their innate beast is evolving. All of the innate spells granted to them by the bloodline beast is merging together and their sea of consciousness is contracting similarly to that of a Morning Star, This is the evolution of the Bloodline Knight force into the soul force.’ Leylin kept observing them with great interest as he snapped his fingers and a veil of protection covered the room from enduring any damage of their aura eruption.

‘After this evolution both of them would be able to construct and use Magus spells, this means their innate talent which was too low to become a Magus has been evoked by my sentient force and the Ascension is projecting this difference.’ Leylin was euphoric to make this discovery, in a sense only when a Warlock can use spell similarly like a Magus with their special advantages would they be considered as a true warlock. In this regards the Bloodline Knight were lacking because although they were extremely powerful and comparable to a similarly ranked Magus, the truth remained that instead of their innate spell they were not capable of using anything more.

This is a huge disadvantage because in the Magus World each and every opponent is cunning and their is no such thing as the greatest attack or defense because everything has a certain weakness and if your strength is known and your cards are exposed, then your enemies would definitely try to find a way to undo your powers.

It’s just horrifying to think if one could never advance or add to their arsenal while their tricks are out in the open ready to be solved by others.

This is one of the main reason why Leylin always make sure to have a plenty of Trump Card in his hands.

‘Ivy is really a genius, she has worked tirelessly for all this years and with only a single push she has reached this stage but Anna herself is also a big surprise…’ Leylin thought as eyes shone with unmatched brilliance looking at the changes in her body. Her advancement process is very similar to Ivy but there is subtle change.

‘This change is in her bloodline…it is breaking through its gene limitations, maybe this is coincidence, my nourishment through the years or her good luck but her Bloodline is mutating and it’s something better!’ Leylin was genuinely surprised to have witness this change before him. Although he has always wanted to have one of his subordinates mutate in order for him to record a valuable data but he never thought he would get to gaze upon this scenario this early.

‘Everyone has certain amount of aptitude regarding magic but it not necessarily reflected in their talents and just after that particular aptitude crosses a threshold it would be classified as having that particular talent. A person who cross the minimum ability to learn magic would be a Grade 1 Aptitude and higher affinity means greater talent.’ Leylin looked at Anna, she is the single most trash talent that has ever worked for him. Her talent in magic was so low that her aptitude difference to Grade 1 aptitude is similar to the difference between Grade 1 and Grade 5.

Even still after years of nourishment from Leylin her talent improved slowly-slowly but it still wasn’t appropriate, firstly Leylin never really tried to increase her almost negligible talent and secondly her body wasn’t capable of reflecting such changes but after her advancement it’s like a dam being broken as all of those accumulated energy was channeled inside her morphing her body which raised her Magical Talent!

‘Although Anna would be only comparable to Grade 1 or at most Grade 2 but it isn’t something that I cannot help with, Ivy on the other hand would definitely be a Grade 3. This is quite a good harvest, only now could they be called True Warlock!’ Leylin smiled as he saw them adapting to their changes.

“Master, We succeeded!” Ivy opened her eyes and jumped looking at Leylin with great happiness in her eyes.

“Now we won’t be useless anymore and could help to serve you better Master.” Tears of joy appeared on her face as she bowed highlighting her impressive pair of breasts.

Anna smiled from the side and looked at Leylin with a similar expression of complete servitude and firmness. She was also a bit puzzled about her unique conditions but seeing how Leylin didn’t reprimand or point her for it she didn’t ask.

“Anna, Ivy you both have served me for the longest. It feels really surreal to think about it now, who would have thought that a simple slave girl with only a few years of her life left intact to be squeezed by her owner, and a little girl left with nothing would reach this place one day.” Leylin said with reminiscing those days as he walked near them.

“It is all Master’s benevolence and kindness which has made us who we are today.” said Ivy as she smiled.

“I have lived to serve you since that day you bought me Master but instead of letting me die and rot, you believed in me and let me see this world I would have never imagined. To live and die for your cause and knowing that I could be of any service to you is my greatest salvation.” Anna said with a small tear in her eyes as she remember her old days which are far behind her.

Leylin didn’t say anything but just smiled and caress the beautiful faces of the two ladies and saw their even more beautiful naked body.

Large amount of sweat appeared and rolled on their tempting naked body as it served to only make Leylin turned on.

“Why not start serving me from now, I wasn’t quite satisfied earlier because of holding back a lot but now…” Leylin smiled lewdly squeezing their milky supple wholesome beasts causing them to moan and look at him with similar lust.



[Astral gate has been engaged!]

In the laboratory, the stone gate emanating weak starlight rumbled, being covered by blue light in the form of flames.

Countless mysterious links were generated in the flames, and the void crumbled, revealing the shadows of innumerable unknown places.

A river of light was formed entirely out of blue stars that were the shadows of these foreign worlds, majestically surging into the darkness unknown.

Leylin again looked at the majestic and vast mysterious astral plane almost losing himself in them.

‘It’s finally judgement time.’ Leylin expression turned stoic as he looked down at a cube in his hands. He looked at the cube and slowly commanded the content inside as he released a red thread.

This cube was filled with mysterious red energy which was none other than the dreamforce.

Using the dreamforce as a coordinate and throwing it into the astral gate was something he decided to do with much contemplation. Whether he succeeded or failed, depends on his months of study and hard work.

*Pu!* The moment the edge of the dreamforce thread connected to his soul force made contact with the astral gate, there was a wondrous change. Large amounts of fire crawled onto its surface, and with a gentle sound they began to flash. Leylin heard an owl’s cry as something mysterious happened.

*Rumble!* As if gas had been poured onto them, the flames rose several metres high, being coloured a bright orange slowly climbing towards Leylin who looked at the flames with indifference.

The whole stone gate began to shake, as if it had been linked to some immensely powerful existence.

“A.I. Chip!” Leylin called out lowly.

[Record of data from astral gate complete. Beginning search of coordinates…] The A.I. Chip’s emotionless voice rang out, and the flames grew more intense.

The shadows of countless worlds came into view and quickly slipped away, flashing past in front of the astral gate allowing it a mere fleeting glance. Leylin, whose soul force was linked with the astral gate, seemed to see a very mysterious world.

On the exterior, numerous dream worlds formed a long starry river. The world itself was like a twisting hourglass, full of mystery and a feeling of asymmetry.

“Dreamscape?” Leylin muttered.  

However, this scene did not last for long. A piercing warning sounded. [Warning! Warning! Astral gate undulations have grown unstable. Recommended action: Halt search!]

Leylin’s eyes were fixed on the scene in the astral gate as he muttered, “Are you kidding me, there is no way I am stopping now!”

Cracks appeared on the surface of the astral gate, but the scenes behind were gaining more clarity. Leylin didn’t bother with the change as he took several steps forward.

*Rumble!* At this moment, however, the fissures on the gate expanded, forming large explosive ripples that swept Leylin within.

The virtual image of Dreamscape immediately disappeared. Amidst the explosion, Leylin’s soft voice could be heard, “Show your mysteries dreamscape!”

Suddenly large amount of dreamforce released from Leylin’s body which took the shape of a claw which grasped something anchoring Leylin soul to try figuring out the coordinates.

*Boom*

[Host’s laboratory has exploded. Handling using emergency plan number 3. In process of stabilising space. Allocating usage of rank 2 rune.] The A.I. Chip’s robotic voice rang.

With its operation, groups of robotic puppets went ahead, coordinating with the spell formation and beginning to clean the rubble in the laboratory.

A neutralising water current that carried the piercing smell of disinfectant was sprinkled from the ceiling of the laboratory, drenching everything.

In just ten or so minutes, the rubble in the laboratory had been cleaned, and the radiation from the other world had been isolated.

At the heart of the explosion, Leylin stood eexpressionlessly with his eyes closed a dense radiant black layer emerging on his body. He had not sustained any injuries in the explosion.

Leylin stood absent-mindedly, hands still maintaining the position from when he had been using the dreamforce stored in his body.

In front of him, all that was left of the astral gate were ruins. Terrifying electric currents and radiations were still present in some places, but with the A.I. Chip’s directions those, too, were quickly isolated and extinguished.

Though the explosion of the astral gate was dangerous, danger depended on the individual facing it as well. In the face of Leylin’s scales that had been strengthened to rank 5, the stray undulations from the explosion were nothing. Even the area around him was completely safe.

Leylin was still with his eyebrows furrowed and a stoic expression on his face, he was silent but a storm seem to hide behind his expression.

“I almost failed!” Leylin sighed, expelling the worry in his heart. When he raised his head once again, his eyes were now calm once more.

‘I wasn’t able to determine the coordinates of dreamscape but I succeed in connecting the two planes with dreamforce radiation.’ Leylin turned to leave the laboratory, but as he pulled the door open, Leylin smiled.

“Feels very odd…” In front of him was a tremendous green forest. Three strange suns shone in the skies, boiling heat waves everywhere.

Leylin looked up and around, finding the place. At the base of a hill, he could see the a shabby building. The thing seemed to have been left for not so long time ago.

‘A.I. Chip, begin scan!’

Blue light from the A.I. Chip scanned the thing, and it immediately came to a conclusion.

Of the three, the one on the left was distorted, like a circle that had been twisted multiple times. The one in the middle was round, but there were numerous tentacles on the outside that made it seem rather horrifying. The one on the right? It was a complicated polygon, with its sunlight holding a different tint.

Leylin turned back, and found his astral plane laboratory still standing tall, its doors still open.

*Boom!* He closed the door.

‘This feeling of absolutely mystery and my being there without feeling any otherworld travel circumstances or astral movement, there’s only one world that can make me feel like this and do this without any warning— the Dreamscape!”

The phantom of a Adhishesha appeared behind Leylin’s back. Its slit pupils blinked open, scanning the area.

“The dreamforce I used for radiation wasn’t very rich so I much find a way to stabilize this connection for a longer time or find a way to recreate these circumstances!” Leylin opened the door once more as the Eternal Light spell shone ahead of him.

When the door was opened once more, the forest has turned into a barren land and oddly-shaped suns appeared before him again.

Compared to before, there were many changes in the surroundings. Traces of yellowish lifeless sands burning in the sun, and the collapsed buildings were just ruins.

“The boundary between dream and reality?”

The further he pondered, the more Leylin found that the secrets of Dreamscape were terrifying.

Leylin walked in and closed the door. Opening it once more, he found himself in the Morning Star area.

Leylin immediately ordered, “Initiate Plan#1”

[Beep! Categorising the area as a special first rank region! Sealing the whole region, and moving away all nearby constructions. Carved runes to protect it from radiation and contamination.]

“It is simply absurd how it actually worked, if my guess is right then the dreamforce I gathered in the dream curse against Carol was actually mutated or marked to trace it’s way to dreamscape but it won’t last forever!” Leylin knew some spatial theory. The Magus World and Dreamscape were like two parallel sheets of paper, and he transformed his astral laboratory as a point between the two, the only link between them.

However, with how space worked, this point would eventually break. In other words, his laboratory would eventually lose its connection to Dreamscape.

“This needs my wholehearted attention, it’s a good thing I don’t have to worry about Spirit Mark World with all of them there!” Leylin’s heart was burning. Dreamscape was the most mysterious of worlds, one that had even invaded the ancient Magus World.

It was an extraordinary place whose inhabitants lacked true bodies. Formed of the dreams of intellectual beings, it had a mystical strength.

If one could find the dreams of some ancient Magus that had comprehended laws and obtain their understanding, They would reap huge benefits. The dreamscape is also very important for Leylin due to it’s unique circumstances and his strange powers.

Basically, in front of Leylin was a gigantic treasure trove…
