Time- 14:53

Location- Sky Blossom City, Dungeon Highway, Barren Lands, Blood Rock Cave Gate Dungeon

Looking at the humanoid blob of blood slowly savoring the blood pudding and letting out a satisfied moan with every bite, only one word came to my mind, ‘This card world is tripping.’

If this were back on earth, people would have shot first and asked questions later. Though the same cannot be said for Millennials, they would take selfies first and ask questions later. Hey, no judgment here. Every generation has its black sheep.

“Haha, Cortney did say you loved blood pudding. I hope you like these blood candies. These candies are a sign of my gratitude and Cortney’s apology.” saying that I handed Bloodette a carton box full of blood candies.

*Sniff* *Sniff* Bloodette did not take the carton of blood candies. Instead, she sniffed them to check if it was ok to eat. And said, ” they smell delicious.”

“And they taste delicious too.” Saying that, Cortney took a blood candy from the carton box and ate it in front of Bloodette, showing that it was ok for her to eat them.

“Ever since the Blood wine fiasco, she has been mindful of things she eats,” Cortney explained to me.

“Oh, I see.” I could see that Bloodette seemed to have a high level of control over her thrust for blood. With the amount of Blood Rule in this cave, she doesn’t have to consume blood. Maybe this is helping her control her bloodthirst. I could be wrong cause judging Bloodette based on the behavior of vampiric Monsters may not be the correct approach to explore Bloodette’s likes, dislikes, and habits.

*crunch* *crunch* “wow! They are so sweet and yummy.” Bloodette exclaimed, chewing the blood candy and then reached for more. Having tasted the sweetness and flavor of the blood candy.

*slap*

“Hey, what was that for?* getting her hand-slapped away by Cortney from the carton containing blood candy, Bloodette complained.

” You are not supposed to chew the blood candy but suck on them like this. This way, they will last longer. And one candy at a time.” Cortney nagged Bloodette like a mother nagging her daughter.

“But I have a big mouth.” Blood’s about opened wide in an inhumane way. Arguing that she had a wider mouth so she could fit more than one candy.

“That is not proper manners. Sister Margaret says good kids should eat with proper manners. Otherwise, no more candy for you.” Sister Margaret is the only actual mother figure in Cortney’s life. So she acted like her while teaching her friend about table manners.

“But these are my gifts. You can take them from me.” Bloodette acted like a spoiled brat.

“Yes, I can. Watch me.” Saying that, Cortney stored the carton containing blood candies in her storage trunk card.

“No, they are mine. Give it back.” Bloodette protested, but it only fell to deaf ears. No matter how many tantrums Bloodette threw like a spoiled brat, Cortney did not cave.

“Cortney, pretty please. Give them back.” Feeling her tantrum not work, Bloodette opted to beg. And when Bloodette finally seemed ready to listen, Cortney delivered her final blow.

“Only if you promise to eat one at a time and save rest for later.” Cortney started her terms to Bloodette, who had no choice but to agree. Seeing Bloodette behave, Cortney gave her the Blood candies. And once again, the World graced us with its presence as Bloodette made her promise to Cortney.

Supreme Beings are known to keep their word no matter the cost, But if they feel like they are being cheated, they will seek retribution no matter the cost. Their innocence makes negotiating with them easy, but the same innocence makes their anger unreasonable and hard to quench.

This integrity of Supreme Beings is one of the reasons why Card apprentices have been able to hold their front on the Way Beyond. Otherwise, the world would be in chaos right now after all supreme beings are the World rule’s spawn and darling of the rule they represent. The amount of power they embody is beyond human comprehension. That is why it is shocking to see Cortney tame Bloodette.

*Suck*”You are right Cortney, Sucking on them is better than chewing them.” Bloodette devoured the entire candy in one suction. Seeing this, Cortney shook her head, giving up.

“Hey, don’t worry, eat as many as you want. I can teach you the method to create these candies. So you will never run out of candy as long as you have enough monster blood.” Seeing Cortney struggle to teach Bloodette to eat sparingly. I decided to teach Bloodette how to make Blood Candies by herself. With the proficiency of her blood manipulation method, she can make better blood candy than my Ego Elemental Blood Swordsman.

“Really!” Bloodette looked at me with sparkling eyes. Those sparkling eyes of hers did not affect me as I was still finding it hard to believe that I was conversing with a blob of blood. I don’t know why out of all the weird shit I have seen after being reborn in this world, only the Bloodette was the one who weirded me out.

I did not feel the same with my ego elementals. I guess I was having a hard time treating a blob of blood similar to a person. Seeing Bloodette express emotions like anger, joy, pride somehow, this Card world started to seem Vivid on a whole new level. I guess the way I feel right now was displayed in a robot movie I saw back on earth. Everything was fine until the robots followed human instruction, but shit got real once the robots started to display emotion. It’s like one’s entire worldview began to bend out of his control.

“Yes, as long as you promise me something.” Nothing is free in this world; it is about time I taught my new friend that.

“What is it? I promise. Tell me how to make these candies.” Bloodette was very eager to learn how to make Blood Candies by herself.

Interesting to know that Bloodette likes learning new stuff. I could see that from the stack of books by her bedside, and when we came in, she appeared to be engrossed in reading a book named ‘Introduction to Omnipresent Soul pathways.’ We can compare Bloodette’s intelligence to a pre-teen, but she displays the caution and eagerness of an experienced adult. I guess she developed them with circumstances surrounding her living. Considering all that shit, It’s already a miracle that Bloodette did not grow up hating humanity for sealing her in this dungeon. I don’t know what changed in this birth of Blooldette compared to the last one for such a miraculous change in her as a person.
