Blood Elf Monarch

The elves, the space knights, nor the goblin Cursaac. Tristan had absolutely no interest or plans to let his and his sister's fate hang in any of their hands. Therefore, before the elves could decimate the goblin and the space knights, Tristan would have to run as far as possible from this place.

Despite a group of them already entering the building, there were still hundreds of those elven soldiers spreaded around the dome-like ground. Moreover, half a dozen of them were around Tristan, tightly surrounding him. At glance, it might look like the elves were protecting and guarding Tristan, but they also kept their eyes on him. There was also the huge tiger around, waiting for its master's return obediently

Ten to 15 minutes was how much time Cursaac would need before whatever the transport method they had was ready. That meant there would either be a massive fight inside the building or a commotion with Cursaac successfully leaving the compound in any moment from now on.

Whichever happened, that would be the best time for Tristan to slip away with Leyla in his arms.

Suddenly, Tristan noticed a group of elves coming out from another entrance. Behind them there were a few dozens of humans. It was apparent that the elves had brought out the captives who were held inside.

It could be said that those people were kind of in the same situation as him. When he looked at them being herded by the elves, with ashen and pale expressions on their faces that clearly showed how traumatic and tragic their situation was at the moment, there was a small voice whispering in his head, telling him to try and save those poor people too.

Alas, that gallant thought immediately swept away as he laughed inwardly. There was no way in hell would he risk the safety of his sister by trying to save them. Therefore, Tristan just directed his gaze away and threw the memories in the back of his mind as he stopped thinking about them.

To test the reaction of the elven soldiers around him, Tristan deliberately took a step forward.

In an instant, all 6 elves were on alert and aimed their bow and swords towards him. The demeanor they exuded clearly told Tristan that they would attack him if he made any other moves. Evidently, Tristan's chances to sneak away undetected at the moment were next to zero.

Tristan quickly raised his hand while pointing towards a cape-like cloth laying on the ground. He slowly made his way towards the clothes lest he further irritated the already alerted elves. When he reached it, he immediately took the clothes and wore it to cover his half naked body.

He then proceeded to sit on the ground, weighing his current options while observing the surrounding.

"If only this elf body comes with an ability to fly.." Tristan thought in his head.

If the damned goblin could hear Tristan's thoughts, he would probably fall into a deranged state. After all, the body Tristan was currently in already had overwhelming strength among its peers, and he still wasn't satisfied with that!

While Tristan stopped his wishful thinking, he suddenly remembered about the innate skill he had, the ones he didn't have the time to check on previously. With just a thought from his will, words were appearing inside Tristan's mind.

[Blood Elf Monarch Innate Ability]

[Stage One Innate Skill - Blood Extraction]

[Stage Two Innate Skill - Blood Seal]

The name of the first innate skill basically said what it does, a skill used to extract blood. Based on what Tristan had experienced so far, he assumed this was the skill that saved his life when he was on the brink of death earlier. It did so by absorbing and refining others blood.

As for the second innate skill, Tristan honestly had no clue at all. He racked his brain trying to guess the skill effect until suddenly a familiar notification appeared on his mind,

[Blood Seal]

[An innate skill of a Blood Elf Monarch. Allowing to use blood essence to control other living beings]

Looking at the somewhat simple yet astonishing description of the skill, Tristan could not help but whistle in his mind. "Wow.. this is a very promising skill. Now, how does it work?"

As if answering Tristan's inquiry, another notification appeared.

[Choose a target to apply Blood Seal]

"Alright! Let's try on the closest elf right there!" said Tristan inwardly while his attention focused on the one he wanted to use the skill on.

[Unable to comply]

[Target's beyond capabilities]

Tristan clicked his tongue when he saw the spell was failed, "Damn… that's a shame."

Tristan was smart enough to quickly figure out the basic function of the ability.

"I guess this is similar to those role-playing games?" Tristan thought. "If my level is higher, maybe then I could control them. So… does that mean I can only use this skill on weaker beings like those humans? Aah.. but they won't be any help to me."

Tristan scanned his surroundings before his gaze landed on the tiger creature that was laying on the ground. "The ideal target would actually be that tiger. It could be a good means for running away. Hmm.. but that huge tiger should be on the same if not higher level than those elves."

After a while, Tristan shook his head and decided to try the skill on the tiger anyway as he had nothing to lose.

[Blood Seal]

[White Zulian Tiger, Level 40 Beast]

[Blood Seal would require 500 Blood Essence to take effect]

[Proceed?]

"Hell yeah!"

Seeing the affirmation in his mind, Tristan was about to shout to celebrate, but he currently needs to suppress the excitement inside him. Tristan then quickly confirmed the skill.

[500 Blood Essence was used]

The skill immediately drained the last bit of his remaining Blood Essence. Tristan then realized that the innate skill cost the same amount of Essence with the previous healing process. He wasn't sure if the cost was high or low as he still didn't have enough experience with the skill. After all, he was too eager to give the skill a try the moment he saw the alluring description of it.

A faint red mist came out from his body and slowly flew towards the unconcerned white tiger. The mist's movement was unbeknownst to the tiger and the other elves.

All of a sudden, the huge creature was roaring loudly and struggling on the ground which quickly alarmed the 6 elven soldiers. The tiger was whimpering in massive agony before suddenly Tristan felt a connection with the tiger.

As if there was an invisible string forming and linking him and the creature. Moments later, Tristan could sense the creature's inner thought and feel he could control it.

[You have a successful Blood Seal]

Before Tristan could celebrate the success, an explosive sound could be heard coming from the building.

Kabooooom!!!
