Chapter 208: Growth Type Skill
She could feel Matt's aura there, next to her aura. Not only had he managed to merge with an Inheritance Token that didn't belong to him, but he had done it in a more perfect way than she could do.
You must know that Inheritance Tokens will take you to the Ancestral Dimension when the time is right. Still, for an Inheritance Token to recognize you as an 'Heir', you must go through a lengthy bloodbath process, in which you surround it with your own blood under a mystical technique from the past.
Only after 24 hours of that long process and, of course, having ancestral blood will the Inheritance Token recognize you as an Heir and react only to you. Only you can enter the Ancestral Dimension through that Inheritance Token. However, once you are here, you can match with other Heirs who are going through the process of obtaining an ability.
Subordinates cannot enter here; although these subordinates connect with the 'Heir', they do not have ancestral blood, so they cannot access the Ancestral Dimension, much less connect with the Token instantly.
At least, that was the knowledge the Heirs had.
But that knowledge had been destroyed in front of Alice at this moment. Not only could she sense that Matt's aura was inside the Token, but she could see it in this place.
She looked at him for several seconds, not knowing how to react, but soon, the Ancestral Dimension led them to sit down to receive their abilities. In this place, you could not speak. The Dimension itself would make you sit down and close your eyes to seek your own inner peace so that you could receive an ability according to you or your ancestral blood.
In the first two times, no one can choose an ability. Everything is given to you 'randomly', or rather by choice of fate.
Therefore, the time they spent in there was long but short at the same time.
They did not feel the passage of time there, but they spent more than 48 hours sitting in the same position.
And 48 hours later, both woke up in that cave they had entered. Alice felt slightly lost, lying in an extremely comfortable place that seemed to give her security and tranquility.
That felt strange to her, but then she remembered what had happened. She planned to get up quickly so as not to inconvenience Matt, but suddenly, she learned that she had acquired a new ability. The vague explanations in her head made her feel interested.
Matt was the same. For a moment, he found himself lost, for he could not understand what kind of place he had come to. Suddenly, something forced him to sit there, and he came out of that strange place without realizing it, returning to his body to find that he had received abilities.
But there wasn't much information in his head, making him frown.
When he wondered how he should find out about it, he saw Alice take out a small book.
It was a Skill Book; since she knew she would reach 10,000 Power, her father gave her one so she could know what her ability did when she received it.
After all, it was one of the most important moments in her life.
She immediately used it, and soon, her abilities were on display.
'Two Abilities?' She thought in confusion when she saw two new abilities in her book.
One of them was her central ability from today onwards.
Growth Type Skill - Blood Above All.
[Blood Above All: The blood of every living being killed by you will be absorbed in its entirety and become permanent strength. You will receive an additional 10% enhancement for every living being with more than 10,000 power that you kill].
'Growth-type ability! And such an amazing one!' Alice felt excited and happy to see this.
A growth-type ability is not rare among Heirs, but some Heirs still don't get it their first time. Like Sophia Murphy, for example, but she is a special case.
The first time she got her Clairvoyance ability, it was so impressive that it shocked the whole world.
However, the Heirs who receive a growth-type ability for the first time always reach greater heights by the time they enter the Divine City, and for Alice, this is the best type of ability she can receive because she is the weakest among the Heirs.
Much more so because of such incredible attributes it had.
The ability was similar to Matt's Bloody Transformation, with the difference that the Blood is not just a fuel; it would become a permanent power.
Alice wasted no time and wanted to see what her second ability was.
Union-minor type skill - Dual Charming.
[Dual Charming: Conditional Skill: When you practice Dual Charming with your partner and the connection reaches the deepest level, both of you will receive an enhancement in Vampiric Power.]
'Dual Charming? Union-type skill... Does it mean practicing the Forbidden Technique of Dual Charming? I didn't know there was a skill specializing in that type of Forbidden Technique.'
Although she knew that Dual Charming was one of the best methods of becoming strong in the vampire race, it was seen as a forbidden technique due to certain practices. This was the first time she saw a skill focused on that kind of connection.
And it is not just a common ability but a conditioned ability of the growth type.
'That's amazing... But they've always said that Dual Charming hurts vampires. I wonder why the Ancestral Dimension granted this ability.' She thought and sighed.
There was nothing to be done. Deep in thought, she felt Matt staring at her, so she passed him the book.
"Did you get a skill? You can check it directly, and then we'll talk about the skills to get to know them better," she said. For a moment, she forgot that Matt had achieved a deeper connection with the Token.
Matt didn't care. He grabbed the book and used it immediately.
He was also curious about what kind of ability he had gained. The cloudy information he had received seemed more than a little surprising.
