Things were working out for Arthur, and now he had an avatar that could work for him as an alchemist and be helpful in the future. He wanted to leave the city as fast as he could to deal with the problems he had on hand, but first, Arthur needed to hire a delivery person.

"Will they think badly of me if I only hire women?"

Arthur announced he was hiring someone else, and Alessa, who was already working for Arthur, said she had someone to indicate, a friend of hers.

"Sure. Call her here." Arthur said.

The person Alessa had in mind was an adventurer who had always helped Alessa the way she could when she was in the streets — which was, like, the day before.

"This is Jannet. She's a new adventurer who knows this city, so I think she could do the deliveries well." Alessa said.

"I see."

Jannet was a tall, muscular woman who was not human but from the beast race, having a tail and two beast ears. Arthur saw few of these in the demon continent, so he figured they should live in a distant place or were few.

As for her appearance, she had a pretty face and an incredible body. Arthur noticed that her boobs were bigger than anything he had ever seen! But the most impressive thing was the enormous two-handed sword she carried on her back, and with the heavy armor she wore, it made her look scary!

Arthur could tell she was not strong and only a fourth circle mage for now, but just like Alessa said, she had just started, so it was understandable.

"I am Arthur, the owner of the shop and also the alchemist here."

"Jannet, nice to meet you."

The two spoke for some time, and Arthur decided to hire her, as she looked knowledgeable about the city and had some power to protect herself.

"I can finally leave! Wait…" thought Arthur.

He was down in the basement preparing his things and seeing how the avatar worked with brewing potions. It was at that moment that he realized his blood avatar had 'bugged' his inheritance!

When Arthur made the avatar, he copied all of his knowledge and tossed it to the avatar. What happened was that the inheritance also went to the avatar, and it was not locked anymore!

"When I try to think about it only using my mind, nothing happens, but when I try to think using my avatar too, I can access the knowledge!"

That was incredible! Arthur browsed through it and got to know a lot of techniques that would work for someone like his avatar, who had yet to start their magical path.

"The forbidden techniques I was looking for are now available for me! This is incredible!"

Arthur could already visualize his avatar turning into a powerful mage, perhaps stronger than his main body, and then the two could merge, turning into an extraordinary being.

Jane and Wisa came afterward, and Arthur explained the gains and talked about his next moves.

"I'll look for the second part of the inheritance to cure the blood essence problem and then pass the essence to my avatar. After that, I will turn it into a vampire and sneak into where Sybille is. In the meantime, we must ensure this potion shop keeps growing and gather all the allies we can to overtake the continent."

"Don't worry, husband, we will ensure this shop is the best in the continent."

Arthur was happy to hear that and gave his two wives kisses and hugs. He also took out a magical pouch and said, "give this to Jannet. I forgot about it. You know, for her usage but mainly to put the orders inside to deliver them."

"No problems."

He made his last preparations and then left the city.

"There, the elf is leaving! Shall we follow him?"

"Absolutely! I am almost sure he is the beast we are looking for, but based on our clues, it was not supposed to be an elf."

"Could it be a shapeshifter?"

"Could be. Anyway, let's move before he gets too far away."

Arthur had a map in his hands, and he marked the area where the vampires supposedly were. It was far. He had never seen the whole continent on a map, and now he could see how big it was, even bigger than the central continent.

"Should I get myself a mount? Or a carriage? A mount looks better." Thought Arthur as he made his way to the stables to get himself a mount.

Mounts were not that expensive, so Arthur bought one, but sadly, all the flying mounts were too slow and would get tired soon, so it was worth it to get them; so he chose to get a golden-furred lion who was as big as a bus.

He chose that one because of its balanced attributes. The lion could do well in all the environments, so it was better than getting a snowy-area-focused mount, for example. Arthur did not know what to expect in his journey, so getting a mount capable of any terrain was the best decision.

Arthur jumped on the back of his mount, so his journey began! The lion started running on the road, and its speed was incredible, surpassing what Arthur had believed.

The ordinary carriages would only see a shadow passing beside them, not able to realize what it was.

One month passed since Arthur left Rolmuth. He traveled through many types of places, but now that he was getting closer to the area where the vampires were, he was being more careful!

He put the lion inside his beast pouch and moved on his foot to attract less attention. There was a town close to where the vampires were but still far away, so it should be okay to go there.

Well, that was what Arthur thought. The first strange thing he noticed was the silence as if everyone inside was dead, and when he went to the main gates and saw no guards, Arthur was sure something had happened inside that town.
