”Summon one blood avatar of the Card Lord realm possessing all of your abilities and knowledge. Remember to make the blood avatarʼs Ego as independent as possible. For the experimentʼs purpose, if the avatar had an independent will, then it would be great.” I requested Bloodette to create a blood avatar. I asked her to limit the realm of her blood avatar to the Card Lord realm because that was the highest possible realm my rune can affect for now. And also proposed to make the ego of the avatar as independent as possible so that when I conduct the blood sacrifice and blood ritual, the avatar needs to be a separate being from Bloodette with an individual will.

”Wyatt, itʼs not possible to create a blood avatar with an independent will, if its will is separate from mine, it will no longer be my avatar but an individual being.” Bloodette explained that if an avatarʼs ego has an independent will, it is no longer an avatar but an individual being.

”Well, can you create an avatar with an independent will or not? If not, then an avatar with an average ego will be fine too.” I did not know whether the fate plunder ultra rune would work on Bloodetteʼs blood avatar. Therefore, I wanted its ego to have an independent will. But if thatʼs not possible, I can only stick to trying to create lemonade with the lemons I got. Hopefully, at the end, I can create lemonade with the lemons I have.

”Itʼs possible. But if I create a blood avatar with an independent will, it will not exist for an extended period. It will dissipate after consuming all the soul power I had poured into it.

Blood avatars are unable to gather soul energy from the world. Instead, they survive on the soul energy I pour into them. If the avatarʼs ego were bound to my will, I could continue to use my soul energy to replenish the avatarʼs soul energy, but since its ego has become independent of my interest. It can no longer borrow soul energy from me to continue its existence.

But incarnations are different since they are possessing a real body. They have the ability to replenish their soul energy by themselves. This is why itʼs impossible to tell if the incarnations will stay true to my interest or not.” Bloodette gave me a positive answer and explained the complications that came with it.

”That will do. Since the avatar is for experimentation purposes, we will not require it for an extended duration. Create one and make sure it behaves. I do not want it trying to eat me, or others present here.” I was worried about disclosing to Bloodette that I would be killing the blood avatar, but now things got a lot simpler.

”Okay, donʼt worry with me here, it will not act out even if its ego is independent of my interests. One blood avatar with an independent ego coming right up.” Bloodette conjured a large ball of condensed blood rule, and a few seconds later, the ball of condensed blood rule started to morph into a humanoid shape. And finally took the form of a genderless mannequin entirely made up of condensed blood rule. The Blood avatar had an aura of an A-rank monster. Being a newborn with the sentience of a 10-year-old, it curiously looked at its creator, me, and the blood rock cave.

Having created the blood avatar. Bloodette urged me to hurry with my tests, ”With the soul energy I have poured into it, it can last max for about 30 minutes, so hurry.”

”I only need five, so donʼt worry.” Saying that, I created a Calamity daughter gem and bestowed it with a copy of my fate plunder ultra rune. Duplication of my rune was not a big deal as long as I had enough refined rule power.

The Blood ritual required me to implant the blood rune extracted from blood sacrifice into the origin core of the corresponding realm. Instead, I implanted a copy of the fate plunder rune in the daughter gem, which also has the card morphing ability of an origin core. The daughter gem will not only replace the origin core but also help me kill and blood sacrifice the blood avatar.

Since it is just a copy of the original rune, the calamity daughter gem only gained the ability of the rune but did not turn into an ego elemental. Then I condensed a ball of blood rule to disguise the calamity daughter gem as a blood pill before feeding it to the blood avatar.

”…” The blood avatar looked at me in confusion as it took the calamity daughter gem disguised as a blood pill from me.

”Eat it,” I instructed the blood avatar as I signaled the same by acting it out with my hands pointing to my mouth.

*munch* Following my instruction, the blood avatar kept the calamity daughter gem disguised as blood pill in its mouth, and soon, the blood rule dissolved as the calamity daughter gem sowed itself into the blood avatar.

”Is that it?” Bloodette asked, seeing no changes take place after a few minutes.

”Give it a minute,” I asked Bloodette to have patients as there was no change yet because I hadnʼt met the necessary conditions of the fate plunder ultra rune, that is, to end the fate of the blood sacrifice personally.

With the calamity daughter gem sown inside the Blood avatar, I had quite a few ways to kill it, but I was having a hard time deciding on the best way to kill the Blood avatar.

I finally decided to have the calamity daughter gem devour blood avatar using the feeding ability of the dungeon calamity seed. The feeding ability allowed the dungeon calamity seed to devour the soul energy of the creatures it implanted with its calamity daughter seeds.

Having the calamity daughter gem devour the blood avatar is the simplest and less messy way to kill and sacrifice the blood avatar to the copy of fate plunder ultra rune in the daughter gem.

With the calamity daughter gem devouring all its soul energy, the blood avatar could not maintain its existence and turned into a puddle of condensed blood rule and slumped to the ground. Seeing this, Bloodette yelled, ”It died of soul energy exhaustion, but I had poured enough soul power for it to last the next 30 mins. Was the experiment a failure?”

”Wait for it….
