Chapter 821 Selfishness

　　Time- 21:27

　　Location- Sky Blossom City, Dungeon Highway, blood rock cave gate dungeon seal.

　　I don't know if my assumptions held any merit but I was willing to bet on the mysterious dungeon seal. There was another reason I wanted to hide demigod Redfall's soul in the dungeon seal, that was if by chance demigod Redfall were able to break free from the calamity trap and escape the heathen stone box, the dungeon seal itself would act as a prison for him. I know that it wasn't a brilliant idea but it was better than letting Redfall's soul free. This fucker was someone who had sacrificed a hundred thousand innocent souls for power, I can't imagine how far he is willing to go regain his realm. Instead of letting out this disaster into the world, I thought it would be better if his soul stayed imprisoned in the dungeon seal in case he was able to break free from all his other restraints. 

　　I know if that were to happen then the dungeon seal would not be accessible to either of us. Still, it was better than the alternative. Not to mention the possibility of this happening was very little, taking into consideration that Redfall's soul is not strong as it used to after returning from the other side, I thought Redfall's soul would not be able to break free from the calamity trap under the effect of the heathen stone. 

　　To be honest, there was my selfishness hidden behind this choice. I did not want to lose a high-grade ingredient like an ex-demigod's soul. By keeping Redfall's soul in the dungeon seal I could access it whenever I wanted to but if I had made any other arrangement I would not have this convenience factor. 

　　Trusting my deduction I threw the doubts to the back of my mind and looked at Cortney and Bloodette. They seemed to be done playing around, so I asked, "Girls did you have dinner?" 

　　"No, I rushed over here for you." Replied Cortney. 

　　"I am always hungry," Bloodette yelled. For someone of Bloodettes realm, the blood of low and median-grade monsters wouldn't satisfy her hunger despite the amount. She needed a high-grade monster's blood but the Sky blossom city didn't have any high-grade dungeon for her to harvest monster blood. Therefore Bloodette was experimenting with the monster's blood and blood rule, for example enhancing the monster's blood using the blood rule. This way the resulting blood would have the nutrition of the blood rule and flavor of the monster's blood. 

　　"Good, I too feel famished let's go and get ourselves some dinner," I remember Anna saying she would save some food for me but I did not want to eat alone when I could fill my stomach in the company of my loyal friends, Cortney and Bloodette. 

　　"Yea and later we can return to the orphanage and play with Daisy and Brian." Bloodette cheered enthusiastically.

　　"Bloodette that is not possible, it is late, the kids at the orphanage must be fast asleep by now. But you can play with them tomorrow morning." Cortney poured water on Bloodette's enthusiasm. 

　　"..." hearing Cortney Bloodette's mood turned for the worse. 

　　"Hey, you two, don't dilly-dally, we got to get going. It is late already , there won't be enough portions left." I hurried Cortney and Bloodette. I know Bloodette was feeling down so I decided to give her some space to deal with it while we were on the move. 

　　Bloodette entered Cortney's innate rune and then opened the dungeon gate, I followed Cortney out and we two summoned our hoverbikes. Just as we were about to leave, A ball of blood escaped Cortney's body and took a humanoid shape, and then demand, "I want to drive the hoverbike." 

　　"No way," Cortney immediately denied clone Bloodette's request. This Hoverbike was her baby, Cortney would not want to hand it over to someone who has never driven anything in her life. Cortney would have considered if her financial situation was good as before but with her mother imprisoned Cortney was broke again. The Royal family did promise her mother that they would take care of her but she didn't know if it covered a hoverbike. And her mother did leave some emergency backups but she would be stupid to use them for a hoverbike. 

　　"W-what," Facing Cortney's immediate rejection Bloodette was hurt, didn't they just agree on what's mine is yours. Did that only apply to her? 

　　"Bloodette, please understand, this is expensive, if you were to get into an accident, I can't afford another one of this." Cortney tried to reason with Bloodette.

　　"Why do you think that I will get in an accident? " Bloodette asked.

　　"Because you don't know how to drive. Be good I will teach you how to drive some other time." Cortney promised Bloodette that she would teach her how to drive if she behave now. 

　　"..." Bloodette stared at Cortney for a few seconds before she turned to me asking, " What about you Wyatt?" 

　　"Sure, Why not?" I wasn't worried about Bloodette wrecking the nanomorpher as it had sentience and could assist Bloodette and help her learn how to drive. 

　　"Wyatt, if she wrecks your hoverbike I do not have the money to pay you for repairs, you have been warned." Cortney considered herself responsible for Bloodette's action. 

　　"Wyatt, don't worry, if I were to wreck your hoverbike I will pay with the blood rule pills you like." Hearing Cortney warning the only person willing to lend her his hoverbike Bloodette immediately tried to assure him that she was not financially helpless and that if she were to wreck this hoverbike she would pay him with blood rule pills.

　　"Wow, is that how little you two think of me?" I said looking at the two.

　　"Wyatt, I didn't mean it that why." Cortney immediately tried to console me while Bloodette did not understand what I meant. 

　　"I was kidding," I laughed, and scooting backward on the nanomorpher I said, "Bloodette get on, didn't you say you wanted to drive." 

　　"Yea!" Bloodette cheered.
