"... I didn\'t know until now, but in our family, we have a saying that we shouldn\'t shed our blood out of the ocean," Seadir said while furrowing his eyebrows. "I imagined that it was because our family decided to become pacifist after many wars, but I suppose that isn\'t the case. Still, this is odd since we aren\'t particularly good at receiving magic damage."

There were many other questions that needed answers, apparently… Only the sea folk blood couldn\'t be the only material to create the anti-magic substance… unfortunately, Rain didn\'t see anything else in the dungeon, and no blood was stored there. The laboratory was somewhere else, and Rain would have to find it.

While Rain was thinking about that and the fact that after his actions, the king would secure all of his anti-magic substance in the castle to prevent it from being stolen or destroyed, another possibility came to mind.

"This might sound like a weird question, but can humans and the sea folk reproduce? Like creating a mix between our species?" Rain asked.

Seadir moved to shield his sister since he realized that Rain was a teenager just like the others. Moreover, the more famous some heroes tend to be, the more deviant they become… Still, it didn\'t take long for him to understand what he meant by that.

"Do you think that a mix between our people would result in someone with high magic resistance?" Seadir asked.

"The possibility just emerged in my head," Rain replied. "The demi-humans are like that, right?"

"As far as I know, that hasn\'t happened in the last five hundred years… my father should know more about that," Seadir replied while thinking more seriously about the matter. "The demi-humans kept reproducing amongst themselves, so no one can say for certain if such a thing was possible or still is possible."

That possibility was quite interesting, it would be comparable to creating people with special abilities that could be even more powerful than their parents. Still, Rain had no idea how and why the junction of human and sea folk blood would result in the anti-magic substance, and that wasn\'t something easy to obtain and study either.

In any case, while they were flying, the condition of Seadir\'s sister gradually improved since he used his spear to make her recover by making her body get hydrated again. That alone worked wonders, and in the end, she woke up the next day at noon.

"Seara… are you all right?" Seadir asked.

The girl was around Rain\'s age, but she was around the same height as Dana, around one and a half meters tall. Rain wondered if he got all the tall genes of the family, thanks to that. He felt that it was a fair trade-off since his sisters got the cute genes.

"Seadir? What happened… I feel so weak," Seara asked while looking around and then blinking once she realized that she was flying at insane speeds and her voice was almost disappearing in the wind. "Where are we?"

"What is the last thing that you remember?" Seadir asked.

"... I was looking around for some herbs, but then I felt a powerful and hot strike on my back," Seara replied when she tried to get up and then noticed Rain, and she quickly flinched since she never saw a human that close. "Then I was hit by something again, and everything got dark."

Seadir checked the back of his sister while Rain was looking away, and he found a nasty burn mark there… if she was underwater, he couldn\'t understand how she got bit by something that burned her back.

"Listen to me, and don\'t panic, okay?" Seadir asked.

Seadir found it challenging to ask his little sister, Seara, to remain calm in such dire circumstances. Seara was understandably shocked upon discovering that she had remained unconscious for an astonishing two-month period since her capture. This revelation left her in a state of shock but also helped clarify why she was currently experiencing such profound weakness.

"He is working with us, so you can rest easy," Seadir said.

"Two months and a war is starting because of me?" Seara asked.

"... it was just the last straw. Sooner or later, it would happen," Seadir asked.

Rain couldn\'t help but sense a familiarity with Seadir at this moment. Both of them seemed to be devoted older siblings who showered their sisters with affection and care. This connection of looking out for their younger siblings was easy to find but still was refreshing.

Still, seeing such a scene only made him feel more worried about Dana, Kei, and Gila… the others were with them, but their fighting experiment was limited. If the king made his move to capture them to weaken Rain\'s position, he wouldn\'t send a small force. The king knew about his accomplishments, and adding to Joanis\' cunning, it was hard to imagine them being half-assed.

"While it is weird for me to think about this after killing so many people, I want to live a more peaceful life… I was granted a second chance, so I value what I have, and I didn\'t want to deprive others of their lives," Rain thought. "I only fought to defend, not to attack, but if they scratch them… they will see one hell much worse than wars."

In any case, while Rain was thinking about that, he finally reached another stage in his journey in search of strength to fight for himself and his family and friends.
