I looked at the pool that was now with three objects bigger than me each covered by its cyclone made of my blood that is in the pool, looking like 3 small tornadoes of blood.
The first thing I did was question Karina, but she knew less than I did, all she talked about was knowing that a Priestess of mine was being created because she felt some sort of connection with this person who ys a role simr to hers.
ording to Karina, she is my Dragon Priestess, but this other Priestess will be representing the Blood, because I am a Demigod I imagined, after all, it is something I inherited from my mother the Blood Goddess.
I went to question my sisters who confirmed everything, but they said that the information is a little iplete, but these 3 useless ones didn''t want to say anything more, Elizabeth was silent, Natasha was just making fun of me and Caitlyn went to take a nap.
I still had two more people to take care of, but I needed time to rest, recover, and think about everything that just happened.
That''s why I told everyone toe back here tomorrow, I analyzed my current state and just to be sure I also asked Natasha to check on me, it seems that besides being depleted of my energy I waspletely fine, which was a relief, must be the first time I do something by ident and not end up with a pile of rubbish.
I walk back home to the mansion while drinking a few bottles of blood to think about all this, I''m going to rest until the next day in my bed.
-----------------
The next day.
The Dungeon Sun has just risen, I enter the Communal Templepletely renewed of my energies, and my body is also in great condition, once again my family and Familiars were present, thest two on the list were also Athena and Alice.
But before I start I look at the pool of blood across the room, it''s the same as I left it yesterday, looks like I have to wait for them to wake up, but I don''t know what''s going on, maybe it just takes a while like it was with Silvia.
Sigh
"Athena,e closer." (I)
"I am here." (Athena)
"Are you sure about that? You seemed happy just being Vanessa''s daughter, what I''m going to do willpletely change you." (I)
"Thank you for your concern and for everything you''ve done for me, but I need power, much more power than I have right now." (Athena)
"You don''t strike me as someone just looking for power, so what do you want?" (I)
"I want to protect my mother Vanessa, I want to protect my friend Loki, I want to protect my sisters and brothers who apanied me here." (Athena)
"But I also want to protect you who had no reason to trust me or wee me into your Dungeon, yet you gave me all of that, a family and a ce that truly feels like home." (Athena)
"So it''s about the Church of Light?" (I)
"Yes, especially the woman I once looked up to and was proud to call my big sister." (Athena)
"One day she wille after me and this ce, I want to be strong enough to fight her and defend my home." (Athena)
"If that''s your decision..." (I)
I look around everyone walking away, Vanessa was with the other Saints who wanted to watch, Loki and Veronica were near my Familiars, I could see that Loki didn''t have his usual yful smile.
Everyone was already away and the time hase to start, I just hope that my decision is right.
"< Demon Dragon Authority >" (I)
Ding!
<[ Wake-up process starting ]>

<[ Athena (Fallen Heavenly Vampire) epted to submit to you ]>
Just like yesterday, I explode my Aura to envelop just me and Athena, so I try to make my Aura fill her body just like I did with Eva yesterday, but different from Eva who had a blind adoration for me or like many others who haveplete trust in me, Athena has trouble trusting someonepletely, her Aura somewhat resists the invasion of my Aura into her body, which makes the process 3 or 4 times slower than it needs to be.
I expected something like this, luckily she''s not blocking me, she''s just resisting and I know she doesn''t do it on purpose, knowing the truth about her family, her religion, and her sister broke her heart, everything that supported her life was ruined in a single day, this is not a trauma she can recover from.
I take as little time as I can until my Aura fills her body, then the skill really activates when my blood, Mana, Ki, Spirit Energy, and Holy Powere out of my body mixing with my Aura around us, so that ck and red energy dragon forms before entering Athena''s body.
It used to be streams of energy that went out from me to the target, but now it''s like I knew the amount of energy needed from the beginning, so this Dragon forms with that energy going directly to the target, maybe it''s an effect of that Skill result of various syntheses.
Ding!
<[ Grant 3 powers to Athena (Fallen Celestial Vampire) ]>
At that moment my mind is filled with infinite possibilities of what I can grant, thanks to therge number of skills and lineages that make up my body after these years.
I had thought about it a lot sincest night, which was a mistake for someone who tends to be driven by curiosity like me, so I thought of a mythological being that might be ideal for Athena.
She had chains binding her, chains from her past and that she put on without realizing it, I wanted her to break free of all her restrictions.
1. [ Ancestral ck Demon: 100% ]
2. [ Ancient Elf: 100% ]
3. [ Zenos'' Blessing (Demigod of Blood) ]
Ding!
<[ Activating [ Astral Body ] skill to bestow Zenos''s Blessing ]>
.
.
.
<[ Temporarily invoking the Soul of Eve (Priestess of Zenos) to be the witness of her Blessing ]>
Once again my Astral Body forms above me, I thought that everything would go on as before with Eva, but it seems that things never turn out the way I think they should.
RRRRRROOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!!
The Dragon representing my Astral Body roars once more while my Authority expands by itself creating a Territory as it happened before, but instead of Invoking Karina as it was yesterday, which by the way I had already left notice for her this time.
Breaking everything I expected, my Astral Body invoked the Soul of Eve, one of the small tornadoes of blood shines and a red light surrounded by those strange ster mes appears taking the silhouette of a woman with wings, besides that there were already more characteristics besides of being all red with strange mes around it.
She faces where Athena is and reaches out her hand making some of my blood that is in the pool float over here, then she uses my blood to make the same Coat of Arms as yesterday, then the lightse out again from the Dragon''s body above me.
These lights stayed above my Crest which was above Athena, at least for now.
