Burglar System: Stealing Ancient Dragon God Bloodline from the Very Start

Chapter 18: The Origin of the King's Blood, Shirley's Olive Branch

William remembered that the ancient books described it as:

The nobles who had the King's Blood were born with Supernal Rank Ability and had a strong affinity with the elements and laws. They would be the most powerful human existence in the future, which could dispel the darkness in the wilderness and bring light to mankind.

These were all descriptions of the geniuses who awakened the King's Blood at birth. However, the power contained in the bloodline would gradually dilute, and the awakening would become more and more difficult as the marriage with outsiders continued.

Many nobles were not allowed to marry outsiders and could only intermarry within their families to ensure that their bloodlines would not dilute.

These nobles became stronger and stronger. They listened to the orders of the Human Alliance, but they were the Emperors of various places in reality. Their words were more effective than the orders of the Human Alliance in the fortresses under their control.

Of course, not all the descendants of King Ranks would become nobles. Some of the King Rank experts who died in battle to protect humans had their descendants gradually wither away. A rumor a few years ago said that a small fort in the north had discovered a person who had awakened the King's Blood. That person was the descendant of a King Rank expert.

The Human Alliance had also given the greatest support. There was no need for the person to participate in the advanced examination. He could directly enter the core training sequence of the Human Alliance. After all, the Human Alliance had set up the advanced exam to select those who had the potential to become experts. Those who had awakened the King's Blood had already proven their potential.

They could undergo a second evolution due to the influence of the power in their bloodline after awakening the King's Blood and increasing the potential of their Endowed Supernatural Ability, even if they had only awakened an ordinary Endowed Supernatural Ability.

William was most likely the descendant of a King to Shirley. As the eldest daughter of the Shelby family, her family had already collected all the information about her classmates, from their backgrounds to their results in various subjects when she had just arrived at the academy.

She noticed that William was an orphan, which meant that his bloodline was unknown.

It was very likely to be the bloodline left behind by a King Rank expert.

"The King's blood is so precious. How can I awaken it?" William probed.

He didn't understand why Shirley would suspect that he had awakened the King's Blood.

A smile flashed across Shirley's eyes. It was like a blooming flower in an instant, making him unable to avert his eyes.

"How did you kill those Vengeful Wraiths if you didn't awaken the King's Blood?" Shirley raised a finger and gently shook it as she said, "Don't say that you're unconscious and don't know anything. I've observed that the injuries on your body are all on your clothes. Mr. George bled. That means you're even more powerful than Mr. George. Even the Vengeful Wraiths can't hurt you. Moreover, my Endowed Supernatural Ability tells me that no one else passed by just now."

William shrugged. "Alright. I've awakened the King's Blood."

He admitted it so quickly, which was a little out of Sherry's expectations. The expression on her face instantly froze.

"You admitted it just like that?"

William looked indifferent and said, "Of course. You said it so firmly. What else do I have to hide since you've seen through me in an instant?"

In fact, he was relieved. The King's Blood was a good excuse to hide his change. After all, those who had awakened the King's Blood Endowed Supernatural Ability would receive a tremendous increase. It was also possible for an F-Class Lizard Bloodline to become very powerful with its existence.

His biggest trump card was the Stealing System when others suspected that he was the King's Blood. Setting up some things to confuse others would be safer for him. After all, the King's Blood was reasonable and easy to accept compared to having multiple Endowed Supernatural Ability. Moreover, no one would study William with such a cover.

Because the Human Alliance had long studied the King's Blood. It could not be replicated or transplanted. It belonged to whoever awakened it and could not be changed.

William felt that Shirley's frozen facial expression was somewhat cute.

"Oh right, what did you say your Endowed Supernatural Ability was?" William was worried about that. He was worried that it might be some Endowed Supernatural Ability related to the laws of time and space. He would have to stay away from Shirley in the future if that was the case. Otherwise, his secret of possessing multiple Endowed Supernatural Abilities at the same time would be exposed.

Shirley was still immersed in her thoughts and could not extricate herself. She had already imagined a complete William in her mind.

A young man with only an F-Class Endowed Supernatural Ability did not want to give up on his dream. So, he fought with monsters in the wilderness, again and again, struggling between life and death. Finally, he awakened the King's Blood.

His King's Blood had awakened through fighting with monsters. Shirley felt a little sympathy for this young man, even though they were of the same age.

Sherry had almost about to ask William what his dream was.

Of course, these were all her imagination. After all, girls would always be more emotional. It was their privilege to be sentimental and loved to imagine.

It was not until William asked again that Shirley came back to her senses.

"Do you want to know my Endowed Supernatural Ability?" Sherry blinked her eyes. She looked cunning but cute with her beautiful face making such a face.

William had looked at her for a long time and was a little immune to it. He showed an impolite expression by avoiding eye contact and just nodded heavily.

"Then you have to agree to one condition." Sherry stretched out a finger and said with a smile, "You have to take me with you and be my mentor when you come to the wilderness in the future. Teach me how to hunt monsters."

William was stunned. He did not immediately agree. Instead, he began to think. Why did this Shirley make such a request? Could it be that she had seen through something?

He thought too much. Shirley was trying to get close to William. At the same time, she wanted to help William. She wanted to help William become famous and obtain a better future, using the resources and information of the Shelby family.

She did this not only because William had awakened the King's Blood but also because she felt that William's future was something to look forward. It was also because she thought that William had been through too much hardship as an orphan. He had fought repeatedly with the pressure of his F-Class Endowed Supernatural Ability. That caused Shirley to feel sympathy for him, which was why she wanted to help him.

However, Sherry was a girl, after all. Her invitation was already so obvious, yet William still dared to hesitate. That made Sherry somewhat angry. She placed her hands in front of her chest and looked at William angrily.

"Hyah! Hyah!" Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves rushing towards their direction came from behind. William and Sherry, who were at the back of the team, immediately turned their heads to look.

It was the woman from the Hope Society who was chasing after them.

"People in the front, stop immediately! I have something to ask you!" Catherine shouted. She had been riding at high speed to catch up, making herself covered in a layer of dust.

However, the dust on her body could not cover this woman's heroic bearing. She was like a female general, speeding towards William. Both of their eyes met, and William could not take his eyes off her for a long time, even when she was far away.
