"Calm down, Bloodette. This one is not a secret. Everybody knows this. So don't worry, I will explain what I know to you, and then you decide what to do next, okay?" Seeing Bloodette lash out, I was not surprised. After all, despite her age, mentally, she was an immature teenager. Making it easier to have her dance to my will.

"Good, now tell me what you know." Bloodette finally felt a sense of relief, seeing that she would finally get some answers instead of being treated like a child.

"What I am going to tell you is not a secret. Many people know of this. The Bloodline Memory meaning of the Blood rule allows the dead ancestor of the card apprentice with an ultimate master in Bloodline memory to take over the body of their descendants who mastered Bloodline Memory meaning.

So the foreign ent.i.ty you found influencing Sarah from through her bloodline is none other than Sarah's ancestor. And if my guess is correct, Sarah's ancestor, the one that is trying to take over her body, is none other than the late DemiG.o.d Redfall.

And the foreign plane that you found on the other side of the Bloodline Bridge is the river of souls. River of souls is where the people's souls go after they die to get in line to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

I have been able to deduce this based on the facts that I have heard about Bloodline Memory meaning of the Blood rule, and its abilities. If you do not trust me, then you can go ahead and try to explore the foreign plane you found.

But like I reminded you before, if you step even a single foot in the foreign plane, be ready to be dragged into that plane by its inhabitants. The foreign plane is the river of souls, and the inhabitants are the departed souls.

No matter how much preparation you make, that will not match against a river of departed souls. So I once again advise you to give up on exploring the foreign plane. I do not know what it is that you want to achieve by exploring the other plane, but all I do is remind you that the river of the soul is the place for the dead, not the living." Bloodette was an oddity, she is a mighty being with simple feelings, and this one particular being has helped me a lot. Not to mention, I planned to make her my backer, hoping that she would achieve her peak strength soon. Therefore, I repeatedly stressed and reminded get that she should not go on an adventure to explore the river of souls.

"What? The foreign plane is the River of Souls? Is what you are saying even possible?" River of Souls and Cycle of reincarnation were not new concepts for locals of this world. Like the earthlings had legends and myths of how life came to be and what comes after death, which would be pa.s.sed on from one generation to the next similarly, the locals of this world had legends and myths about the river of souls and the cycle of reincarnation. Therefore Cortney was understood how serious the River of Souls and the Cycle of reincarnation. Because of this, she was having a hard time believing that souls of the river of the souls can return to the mortal plane without entering the cycle of reincarnation.

"..." Bloodette was astounded and embarra.s.sed hearing my explanation. She believed that the ent.i.ty pulling the strings behind Sarah's abnormality was an almighty being with the ability to search different planes and invade them. But knowing that the ent.i.ty was just a fallen demiG.o.d soul which had made prior arrangements to return to the world of the living before its untimely death. Bloodette felt stupid and was embarra.s.sed. Thankfully her color was red otherwise it would be tough for her to hide the shame and embarra.s.sment she felt right now.

"Bloodette, you heard Wyatt. Right?" Cortney asked Bloodette, hoping that she should have given up exploring the foreign plane based on the explanation given by me.

"Yes," Bloodette nodded, but this was not the response Cortney was looking for from her.

"What do you mean? Tell me you have given up on the idea of exploring the foreign plane." Since Bloodette was not answering clearly, Cortney made her question more obvious, and to the point of trying to force Bloodette to reply with the answer, she wanted to hear.

"Cortney, what Wyatt explained, doesn't change anything. This deduction was based on the questionable information he had heard about the bloodline memory meaning of the blood rule. This proves nothing." Bloodette was already giving up on the idea of exploring the foreign plane, but Cortney's forced questions were doing the opposite of their intended purpose. Hence leading to the stubborn and rebellious reply from her.

"What? How can you say that despite hearing Wyatt's explanation? And what do you mean by questionable information? Didn't he already tell that it was known by many? Bloodette, stop being stubborn and be reasonable." Cortney's love for Bloodette made her an overprotective parent who would keep on nagging, not trusting the judgemental skills of their child.

"No, Cortney. I want to explore the foreign plane. This is my decision, not yours." Finally, under Cortney's constant nagging, Bloodette chooses to do the opposite of what Cortney asked her to do in spite. Parents should know that they can never control teenagers, and if they forcefully try to do so, the effects are always adverse, then desirable.

"That's it. I forbid you from exploring the foreign plane. You will go in there and destroy the bloodline bridge. That's the best and safest option of all." Cortney snapped at Bloodette and did the one thing that would drive Bloodette to do the exact opposite of her words.

"..." Hearing Cortney use the word forbid, I slapped my forehead, knowing any or all possibility of changing Bloodette's mind from exploring the river of souls had gone down in the drains.

"Fine, Cortney." Saying that Bloodette's physical shape morphed into a blood-red egg, a cord extended from the egg and attached itself to Sarah invading her Bloodline. Bloodette had turned her physical body into a mark and linked it to Sarah's bloodline to act as her beacon to return to the material plane after she is done exploring the foreign plane. Parenting one-on-one, teenagers can never resist the temptation of the forbidden fruit.. And Cortney just made the foreign plane the forbidden fruit for Bloodette.
