YM778.TV Chapter 47: Silent Killing Part 2
He made sure that his targets bled profusely before devouring them.
One advantage of Anna\'s absorption ability was that she could absorb blood regardless of whether it was dried or soaked in bedsheets .
\'This is almost like a date,\' Anna giggled.
It was like a twisted amusement park date for them, except instead of cotton candy and roller coasters, they had blood and terror.
They made quite the gruesome duo, like a couple of monsters gleefully stomping on humans as if they were nothing but ants.
20 minutes later.
"Are you done?" George asked casually, taking a sip of his coffee, completely unfazed by the fact that his daughter had just killed dozens of people.
"Yes," Anna replied with a worried expression.
After finishing her rounds, she realized that her growth was now moving very slowly compared to before.
Prior to meeting Reign, she hadn\'t cared much about her own power, but now she felt a strong urge to keep getting stronger so she could be useful to him. It was her emotions clouding her logical thinking.
"Is there something wrong?" George asked, noticing his daughter\'s worried expression.
Anna glanced at her father, hesitating for a moment, before deciding to confide in him.
"I feel like my growth is slowing down," she admitted, her tone tinged with concern.
"Oh, so you\'re already at that stage, huh," George replied, his tone indicating that he understood the situation.
"You know what\'s happening, Dad?" Anna hurriedly asked.
George paused for a moment, a solemn expression crossing his face. "I think it\'s time for you to know the truth about what happened to your mother,"
Anna locked gazes with George. She had never cared much about her mother, but if learning about her could help her grow stronger, then she was more than willing to listen.
"I lied to you when I said she just disappeared on us," George admitted, his voice a little bit sad.
"The truth is," George began, his voice tinged with sadness as he recounted the past, "she told me that she needed to leave because her life was in danger. She didn\'t feel powerful enough to protect the two of us. Just stealing blood from blood banks wasn\'t enough to make her stronger."
"So she also experienced what I\'m feeling right now?" Anna asked, seeking clarification.
"She called this the limit of her bloodline, and she mentioned she had to do something to break through it," George added.
"Did she tell you about it?" She leaned closer to her father, her eyes wide with excitement as she eagerly awaited his response.
George noticed the anticipation in Anna\'s expression, but unfortunately, he didn\'t have all the answers.
"No, she told me she would come back, but that never happened," he sighed heavily, a pang of sadness evident in his voice.
Despite Annabele\'s use of underhanded methods to get him, he still loved her deeply because she was the perfect wife material.
It was true that she was very cunning, but she even stopped killing people when she got together with him; instead, she resorted to stealing blood from hospitals.
In a way, Anna was even more ruthless than her mother in that regard, perhaps because she had fallen in love with a man-eating monster like Reign.
\'Yeah, my daughter is a good girl, it\'s all his fault,\' George muttered, shifting the blame onto Reign, completely forgetting that he too was at fault for being too dotting and spoiling her.
In his mind , Anna did kill before, but it was usually out of irritation.
She had also used blood from hospitals to grow stronger. However, since Reign entered the picture, she has become more brutal.
In fact, she began to enjoy killing more, finding it to be a shared hobby with the creature she loved.
\'That damn monster is a bad influence,\' he grumbled to himself, frustration evident in his tone.

"Why do I feel like someone is badmouthing me?" Reign wondered to himself as he finally consumed the last corpse.
[Level UP+1]
***
So far, he had leveled up four times after eating over dozens of humans, and he couldn\'t shake the feeling that the requirements for his evolution were costly. Little did he know, his growth was actually much faster than others of his kind.
The silver lining, was that from level 21 onwards, he was now gaining 10 attribute points instead of the previous 5.

============
For the skill points, he allocated everything to Claw Bullets.
While Claw Barrage boasted greater power and speed, it depended on Claw Bullet as its foundation. Thus, enhancing Claw Bullet first would directly enhance Claw Barrage, essentially killing two birds with one stone.
Next were the attribute Points.
Agility (B-) > (B ) =15 AP
Agility (B-) > (B+) =15 AP
Agility (B+) > (A-) =15 AP
He quickly spent 45 attribute points to elevate his Agility to an (A-) rank. He was curious to see what would happen after increasing one of his attributes that high.
DING!
[Congratulation Host for Reaching (A-) in one attribute .]
[Reward : 10 Skill Points]
[Reward : One Speed Type DNA]
\'Speed type DNA?\' He clicked the more info button to see what the (SPD) about.
[Speed Type DNA : Allow host to upgrade a skill and turn it into speed type skills. ]
Another window popped up, displaying two placeholders where he could drag a skill and use the Speed Type DNA.
Curious, Reign decided to try it with Night Crawl to see what would happen.
===
Night Crawl >> Night Crawl (SP)
Night Crawl (SP): Increase the skill base speed by 50%
===
\'Whoa, this is awesome!\' he exclaimed to himself, impressed by the results.
A 50% increase was very beneficial, especially because it was a percentage-based boost. This meant that the faster he became in the future, the larger the bonus increase would be.
However, as Reign contemplated further, he realized the limitations of applying the Speed Type DNA to Nightcrawl.
The skill was heavily weakened during daytime, making it less versatile compared to the other skills he possessed.
This realization made him hesitate to proceed with the transformation. After all, wasting such a valuable resource on a skill with limited utility could prove to be a costly mistake.
\'Let\'s try the others,\' he decided, removing Night Crawl and replacing it with Claw Barrage in the placeholder.
Claw Barraged >> Claw Barrage (SP)
Claw Barrage (SP): Increase the skill base Speed by 25%
This time, the increase wasn\'t as big. However, the Claw Barrage was already a speed-enhancing skill to begin with. Adding this buff on top of another would likely have a better overall effect.
"Combine!"
