Chapter 414: The Strength of Bloodlines

Arran's brow was furrowed in a deep frown as he stared at the four vials that stood on the table before him.

Though the vials were small, they contained priceless treasures — four greater bloodlines, each of which should have a power to rival the Ruiner's and Devourer's bloodlines he already possessed.

That one of these vials also contained a corrupted version of the Hungerer's bloodline was a small matter. Lady Merem had granted him the true version of that bloodline, and as long as he consumed it before the corrupted bloodline could take hold, he would suffer no ill effects.

Instead, he'd merely gain yet another powerful bloodline.

While these five bloodlines should cause his strength to increase with leaps and bounds, they also represented something nearly as important — that he could finally choose to leave the Imperium.
