"…"
Luminia and Ithania didn't know what to say.
"What?"
Azriel couldn't understand why they were acting so strangely.
"These techniques…"
Luminia questioned.
"Trust me, they are the best techniques for the current you," Azriel repeated his point.
"Do… do you know what tier they are?"
"Tier? Ah, as in the Star ranking?" Azriel realized.
"Yes." Luminia nodded.
"Well, I don't know… hmmmm, well, just call them 14 Star? Yes, 14 should be good."
Azriel nodded.
"…"
"…"
Again, Ithania and Luminia turned silent as they glanced at each other.
One had to know, the Cultivation Techniques, the Crimson Dominance, and Blood Mana Union, that Azriel cultivated before going into the Trial and were known as the best techniques the Vampires had were only… 12 Star Techniques.
Higher level techniques…
Well, nobody even knew they existed.
And as if knowing what they were thinking, Azriel waved his hand,
"Please don't compare these techniques with all the other techniques you have. All your techniques are techniques used for a flawed cultivation system to begin with.
Even if you think they are 12 or more Stars, they are absolutely useless.
I think they are just cheap copies of the techniques I made before, and to be honest, even those techniques that I made were made half-assedly. I compressed the 100-page technique into 20-something pages since I was too lazy to write.
These techniques are different, I have poured all my knowledge into this, and this is definitely the best technique for you two.
Now all you have to do is start your cultivation and get stronger."
Azriel spoke with a smile on his face.
Luminia and Ithania, on the other hand, just couldn't handle this anymore.
In the past few hours, everything they believed in has been disregarded, disrespected, and destroyed by this man. All the legends they believed in, all the treasures they thought were the bests of the bests, all of those were simply nothing in this man's eyes.
His arrogance was boundless.
And what was worse?
That he had a reason to be arrogant.
Everything he did had absurd results, this man single-handedly changed their entire body and gave them the most ideal body possible.
Just…
Was it always that easy…?
They didn't know…
To be honest, they even wondered if their goal had any meaning anymore.
Because if they have someone like Azriel…
Then as long as they protect him for a few centuries, the Vampire's return would be no surprise at all.
No, actually, let alone Vampire's return, Azriel could even make it so that the Vampires are the ruling race in Yrniel and he can do it without even trying.
Their Grand Goal… felt… smaller now.
"Ithania."
Suddenly, Azriel called out.
"What is it?" Ithania questioned.
"I need a favor."
"Hmm? What happened?" Ithania frowned.
"Before you start your indoor cultivation, I want you to give me all the history books that contain information about Dracula Von Yrniel."
"Information about the Progeni-"
"Fake Progenitor. He is not me." Azriel corrected.
"Right." Ithania corrected herself,
"Alright, give me some time, I have read all those books, I just need to sort them out. Do you need anything else?"
"Well, if there are books that contain information about other Progenitors, give me those as well. I need to know what happened to those idiots.
How dare they allowed a fake to take my place?
Even if it was a prank, they are going too far, I need to have a little chat with them."
A small smile appeared on Azriel's face when he thought about his friends.
Seeing that expression on his face, Ithania smiled and nodded.
"Alright, I will take my leave then."
"Mhm," Azriel nodded.
At the same time, Luminia stood up as well.
"Do you want me to do anything?" She questioned.
Azriel nodded,
"Yes, go back to your room and enter closed-door cultivation, I want you to rebuild your foundation and fix this mess you have made."
"Now would you look at that, ordering your teacher around like that?"
Luminia smiled teasingly.
"Now I am the teacher here.
So listen to what I say,
Luminia Ruinous."
"Tsk."
Luminia snorted.
"Though I still want to ask something."
"Hmm? What is it?"
"How was your relationship with the other Progenitors? Were you enemies? Just like how every race is onto other races' necks? Or was it different? By your reaction, it seems that your relationship was rather good."
"Back then, Yrniel was ruled by Star Beasts, Beasts that could threaten even us, the progenitors, all of us had to combine our strength and fight against them.
We were a team.
A team that worked together, there were some fights over some things, but in the end, we were all friends."
"If the 7 of you were like that, then how come the ot-"
Luminia wanted to ask another question, however, a frown appeared on Azriel's face as he interrupted.
"Huh? Seven? Seven who? There were 63 Progenitors in total."
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
"…"
"…"
The room turned silent again.
"According to the history… there are only 7 Progenitors… 1 Progenitor for 1 Race…"
Ithania clarified.
"…"
Azriel turned silent.
"…"
"…"
Luminia and Ithania understood that something was wrong.
Azriel sighed,
"Leave everything alone, just answer this question,
How did none of you ever question?"
"Questioned what?"
"If each race only had a single Progenitor, then how in the hell did they give birth to their children?
Did they just, create children out of thin air?
Excuse me, but even the Progenitors aren't that strong.
They can't create life.
No one can.
Also, there are so many types of demons, how can a single give birth to so many of them? Is that even possible? How can his children differ so much?
Everything is so logical, how did anyone not notice it?"
Azriel questioned and Ithania and Luminia turned silent.
Luminia, however, wasn't thinking about what Azriel said, she was thinking about a completely different thing.
She glanced at Azriel and narrowed her eyes.
"So you are telling me that you had a mate as well?"
