Blood Evolution System-Chapter 235: John's gratitude and Vincent's choice

He was sure that the context in the necklace that he could only access by using energy was in the ancient elvish language.

Although he didn't understand and couldn't read it, he was happy to have received it.

After all, he could still translate it, and translating wasn't going to be a bother. He knew that the academy had an extensive library covering hundreds of languages, and it would be easy to get it done there. In this era, one can even pay others to translate the ancient elvish language. But he didn't want to do that as he didn't like to share the context in this necklace with anyone else.

King Wrath looked towards Vincent and said, "I will repay you in the future." There was no playful air around him, meaning he really meant what he said.

Vincent took his words quite casually as he didn't know that he was King Wrath, an expert far stronger than himself. Gaining his favor was the same as surmounting a mountain of swords or getting out of a sea of fire.

"Go and look for your lucky encounter already."

"Yes, you've wasted a lot of time on us already."

Vincent was the only one who hadn't gotten anything, and it's all because he was busy selecting the best things for his teammates. It was only good people here, so he didn't mind showing off his knowledge and flexing wildly. More than that, he wished the best for all of them, and that's why he willingly took a risk.

"Well then, goos people, excuse me."

Vincent turned to leave, but he only took several steps when John hurriedly caught up to him.

"Wait, big brother, I have to say something to you."

"Don't say it," Vincent stopped him, saying another word, and after seeing a crestfallen expression appearing on his face, he added to make himself clear, "just follow me."

Vincent took John away under the eyes of the other. He went straight to the fruit of life, and John followed after him. He picked it up and became its owner giving up one of his three rights to choose an item. Then, he gave it to John.

"Take it and awaken." Vincent said, "I look forward to you becoming a saint among healers."

John nearly teared up. Blinking his wet eyes like a bit of baby, he shed some manly tears and cried out, "Thank you! This means a lot to me."

He kept on thanking him, and after a while, Vincent clearly told him that they were here for the sole reason of the fruit of life. And that if it weren't for him, Iris would have never exposed such a massive secret to them or led them to this place. Vincent also told him that he was like a brother to him, and he couldn't see him under the constant threat of death because of an awakening that could happen anytime.

"I still want to somehow repay you. You've done so much for me, for all of us, but I haven't repaid you in any way." John seriously felt indebted to Vincent.

Vincent patted his shoulder, and like a good nig brother, he said, "Once you become a big deal in the future, and I trust you will remember to take care of your sister and me."

The supernatural ability that John could awaken was bound to be extraordinary. Vincent didn't doubt that he would become a superpower and also a role model for the people and that many superpowers would like to have him by their side. John was bound to become a huge deal in the future, and at that time, a single word for him would carry enough weight to solve many troubles.

"Now that I am done helping others, it's time to get what caught my eye."

John left Vincent, who walked towards the darkest place of the library. Not only did this place have no sparkling treasure, but it also looked so ordinary that no one would look towards this place twice. It had a simple dark desk. There was a ring with a skull on it and a hilt of a sword. There was no sword body. But Vincent looked at it as if it was the greatest treasure. There was a small hollow in it, probably a crystal socket.

Description: It was an item owned by Mr. Joker. It contains ten spaces. Each floor has a treasure room containing treasures. From alchemy recipes and arts to combat techniques and powerful subordinates, you can find everything inside it. However, to reach the treasure room, you must clear the trial of the same floor room.

[Would you like to participate in the first trial set by Mr. Joker and enter the first floor, invasive hell?]

"No," Vincent refused as he didn't have time to take the trial.

These two things; he seriously wanted for himself.

Thus, he picked them up and went to Melody.

"I want to take them as my prize money," Vincent said sheepishly.

The two things he picked up weren't just two items but more than hundreds of them. He knew it, and she also knew it. That's why he felt so guilty that he couldn't look at her in the eyes.
