When faced with choosing between comprehensive a new ability or enhancing an existing ability, I did not hesitate to choose to improve the ability that I already possess. Because learning an unknown new ability was too much of a gamble. What of the ability I gain is not compatible with my current skills? What if that ability is what I did not want? What if that ability had too many restrictions? There are one too many ifs and buts to choosing a new ability over empowering the ability that I already know about.

I am not the one to shy away from risks but choosing my first meaning of rule decides the entire direction of the blood rule I will be comprehending now and in the future. And if I were to end up comprehending a meaning with too many restrictions or a meaning which is useless to me, then it is equal to abandoning the blood rule altogether. Therefore I was not willing to take the risk at this point. And choose to stick with the safest option.

Even if the path of blood rule is abandoned, I still had other ways to use blood rule, for example, broken runes. With the ability of my calamity soul gem, I did not have the same restriction that other card apprentices are faced with when using the broken runes. Not only that, I could heal the broken runes to completion using my calamity daughter gems. So I was not hopeless if I somehow ended up abandoning the blood rule or any rule for that matter.

But using broken runes was not as natural as using the self comprehended runes. Therefore I did not want to risk abandoning the entire blood rule just based on the chance of me gaining a new helpful ability.

This was the reason why most of the card apprentices, even though they have forged an ego gem, have huge gaps in their strength. Some card apprentices are lucky, and the first rule they comprehend gives a massive boost to their capabilities. In contrast, some end up comprehending something which doesn’t suit their fighting style or something that cannot be used in combat.

Just take Anna and Luna, for example. Both of them are Card emperor’s, but when it comes to personal prowess, Anna will easily outshine Luna in terms of strength and combat. Clearly, Anna’s rules and runes are focused on battle and warfare, while Luna’s rules and runes are based on support and control type. But both of them were very lucky as the rules and runes each of them comprehended all seemed to align with their passion. Making them top in their respective field. Therefore instead of being a daredevil and risking it, I decided to be cautious and chose to improve my current ability over risking it all in a gamble.

Having whittled down to the number of shades of blood rule to choose from to twenty-five shades, I proceeded to shorten the number further by scrutinizing the abilities that lead to these shades of blood rule. Upon doing so, I immediately discarded the five shades pointed by Viltronian physique as I was not looking for enhancement type ability. I think for a card apprentice, I had a monstrous strength which would do for now.

Next, I discarded the 13 shades pointed out by the Soul energy manipulation skill I acquired from soul poles. Because I had a hunch that 13 shades of blood rule pointed by this skill were all related to manipulation, recovery, or enhancement type. And I was confident that one of the shades definitely belonged to the blood manipulation meaning of the blood rule. That meaning was overpowered, but I had Blood swordsman for that. And for now, that will do.

And then the two shades of blood rule pointed to me by my mutated soul. I chose to discard them because I was sure that one of two meanings was bloodline resurrection, a very vile meaning that I do not want to be associated with. Therefore I could not risk choosing between these two shades of blood rule.

Lastly, I discarded the three shades pointed out to me by my soul pupils because soul pupils were my most coveted ability but I know many eye-related meanings of blood rule, and none of them were worth comprehending. One of the blood pupil-related meanings I heard of is that a blood pupil will increase the victim’s blood pressure in an instant and burst their eyeballs, heart, head, etc. Or another ability is to reverse the blood flow in the victim’s body. These abilities are deadly and all but failed to impress me.

Leaving me with two shades pointed out by the Dungeon calamity seed. If I looked at all the 500 plus shades pointed by the dungeon calamity seed skills, I could say they all are somehow related to the enslavement type meaning of blood rule. But still, my final choice landed on this was because I felt that if I were to comprehend one of these meanings to completion, I would be able to meet the conditions required to unlock the third form of the Calamity soul gems transformation ability.

Dungeon Calamity seed’s transformation ability is one of its most attractive skills. The calamity soul gem has inherited this skill from the dungeon calamity seed and gave me the ability to transform. Until now, I had unlocked the Base form, the first form, and the second form.

The Base form – the Calamity Soul Gem from which made my should immortal by encasing it in the shell of the dungeon calamity seed.

The first form – the mutant Viltronian, which gave me the enhanced physique of a mutant Viltronian.

The second form – The kaiju form, gave me the ability to transform into a Viltronian Titan.

I had yet to satisfy the conditions to unlock the third form, and after a long time today, I was finally able to uncover a clue that would help me open the third form of the transformation skill of my calamity soul gem.
