[Blood]
This liquid is the source that sustains the co-growth of life across thousands of worlds.
In the myriad of worlds associated with the Black Tower, even with different world backgrounds, divine guidance, or developmental directions of lifeforms, there will always be individuals interested in the [Blood] flowing within them.
Most worlds will inevitably derive a branch related to [Blood] in their course of development.
As in the Demon World, there are the Blood Descendants represented by the Middle Position Old King (CH.F.), or in the world currently associated with the Count, the corresponding Nether Blood System.
However.
The [Blood] possessed by the Scarlet Knights – Shaia Cornwall is intimately related to her own being rather than entirely from the world system.
Shaia is referred to as “the heart of the Knight Regiment,” overseeing the hospital system of the whole Holy City, ensuring that over 70% of the knights maintain their physical integrity, survive, or remain without sequelae.
The top knights of the Holy City, when planning to embark on a mythic-level Journey of Fate, often try to involve Shaia.
As for Shaia’s true heritage, even many of the regiment leaders are unaware.
As the daughter of a duke, born in an apocalyptic era, she did not inherit many superior genes, but instead, she contracted a very rare immunodeficiency disease.
Most importantly.
This congenital defect results in a conspicuous outward manifestation.
The first time Shaia suckled her mother’s milk, she displayed a bloodthirsty trait, actually drawing a small amount of blood from her mother… It was later discovered that she could obtain temporary immune recovery by drinking blood.
Her desire for blood grew with age, and she needed the arterial blood of living people.
If such a trait were exposed, it would surely be deemed heretical by the Church, and even the duke’s status could be affected.
Therefore, the duke often bought slaves from the commoner’s district to serve as ‘snacks’ for Shaia.
However, Shaia was inherently kind-hearted. Although she couldn’t suppress her bloodthirsty desires, she would try her best to interrupt feeding to save the lives of her servants.
