Chapter 234 - 06: Jones’s Marriage (4)
All members of the Blood Clan were born with the ability to fly. Of course, it wasn’t through flight magic, but by transforming into bats. Even the lower-tier Blood Clan members possessed this ability.
However, in their flying form, their stamina would be greatly reduced, dropping to about 10% of their usual strength. This meant their combat power would be less than 50%. After all, the Blood Clan and Liches were two fundamentally different species.
Liches were purely magical creatures, with their bones merely serving as a medium. Their true form was a mass of magic power.
In contrast, the Blood Clan were beings of flesh and blood, considered only semi-magical creatures. And even then, only slightly. The higher and stronger members of the Blood Clan not only had potent magic power but, more importantly, they possessed powerful bodies. This strength naturally increased over time, having no direct correlation with one’s personal diligence, but rather being linked to talent and age.
Essentially, the Blood Clan were magic warriors. Compared to Liches, they were more suited to be Knights. That is, if you could overlook their inherent laziness and fear of bright forces, as well as their dark tendencies in character.
Of course, we all knew that this was impossible to overlook.
Leaving the birthday party, Jones and Dora transformed into bats and flapped their wings through the wind and snow, flying back home.
On the Kolin Peninsula, Blood Clan members lived relatively close to each other, so the distance wasn’t far. Before midnight, Jones had already returned to his own home.
As soon as they landed, with the wind and snow still howling, Jones turned his back to Dora and whispered, "Don’t let anyone know about what just happened."
"But Dora thinks that Lord and Lady will definitely find out, since so many people saw," Dora muttered softly.
"Then let them hear it from others first. At least I can have a few days of peace."
