Blood Elf Monarch

[The body\'s condition has become critical.] 

[The host requires immediate treatment.]

[Restore health using 1,000 Blood Essence?]

"Yes," Tristan replied without a second thought.

Among losing his body parts, Tristan hated losing his head the most. This was because losing his head would cause him to temporarily lose all his senses.

Although it was temporary, it was still extremely unpleasant.

Even so, in the end, he really could not exactly complain about it. After all, this undying body that he had was really his ace skill and constant lifesaver.

The captain\'s victorious grin was cut short when he saw the splattered blood gather in the air. In front of him, he witnessed something he never thought he would see here. In just a few seconds, Tristan\'s head regrew as if it had never been detached from his body.

Right after the baffling scene, Tristan stood back up, his movement not lacking in energy.

"You!!!" The captain exclaimed before turning silent for a moment. "So you really are a blood elf!"

He was previously not sure, only having slight suspicion due to the major\'s reaction when he saw Tristan on screen, but now, with what he just witnessed, he was completely sure about it.

Jenkins raised his sword once again before seriously saying, "You\'re still at saint level in terms of strength… I should kill you before you become more of a threat to the empire!"

The captain quickly cast a wind spell. However, unlike the previous one, this time, he cast a spell that covered not only his feet, but his entire body. Tristan could even feel the air in the room rapidly surging.

[Tier 6 spell - Armor of the Wind.]

The spell reminded Tristan of the spell Callan liked to use. His earth armor would highly increase the hardness of his body to an extremely high level while also increasing his strength at the same time.

Thinking of the spell\'s properties, Tristan was willing to bet that this wind armor would highly increase Jenkins\' movement speed.

The captain once again charged at him, but this time, it was at a speed where Tristan could only see mirages of him.

As expected.

Still moving, Jenkins cast another [Sonic Wind Blade] toward Tristan. Compared to the previous wind blade, this one felt more swift and violent.

But this time, Tristan had anticipated such an attack. With the precision that came from his previous experience, he blocked the incoming wind blade with both of his blood swords.

Crack!!!

The high-level spell broke both of his blood swords. However, contrary to Tristan\'s expectation, Jenkins did not immediately cast another wind blade to attack him. Instead, he took the chance to grab his double-edged sword.

"You will die by my hands!" Jenkins declared with a serious expression.

From the expression on his face, it appeared that the captain was planning to use all the strength he had. At that moment, Tristan could see that he had begun casting a spell on his sword.

[Wind Infusion.]

Tristan knew that if he were to still choose to play around with the current situation, things could go south even with his undying body.

He knew that the captain would not be as foolish as Janus, who recklessly let his Heart of Monarch rebuild.

Tristan quickly used the maximum amount of blood synthesis he could create. With his command, countless swords made of blood swiftly formed, half of them hovering in front of him ready to attack and the other half surrounding him from every direction.

"That will not save you!!!"

Captain Jenkins charged at him. With his wind armor\'s buff, he managed to dodge Tristan\'s incoming blood swords and deflect the others with just one swing.

To Tristan\'s astonishment, he charged toward him without stopping, destroying all of the blood swords in his path in the process.

Tristan smiled. It seemed that this was the true power of a space cruiser captain.

At the last moment, Tristan looked upon a part of his brain and accessed his skill.

[Blood Essence: 95,231]

[Upgrade Blood Synthesis to Stage 3 - 50,000 Blood Essence?]

"Yes."

[Blood Synthesis upgraded to Stage 3.]

[Increasing Synthesis quality...]

While it was true that the upgrade required a significant amount of blood essence, it was a necessary upgrade for the situation.

Just when the captain\'s double-edge sword was only a step away, Tristan cast his upgraded blood synthesis on his hand.

As the blood covered his hand, he noticed that in comparison to his previous blood synthesis, the blood this time had a darker crimson color.

Clank!!!

The upgraded blood synthesis was able to parry the enchanted tier 5 sword.

At that moment, Tristan could clearly see the shock on the captain\'s face.

Not only could Tristan parry his strongest attack, but he could also follow his movements at this speed and even precisely blocked the spot he aimed at.

"Haha! It\'s not so hard to guess since you really like to aim at my neck!"

Now, he might have matched him in terms of weapon quality, but he was aware that the difference between their speed was still there. So there was absolutely no way Tristan would let his chance go. He quickly used his reinforced hand to grab Jenkins\' sword.

The captain tried to release his sword from Tristan\'s grip, but he could only make his hand bleed.

At that mere second, Tristan used the move he was most proud of: A heavy headbutt to the captain\'s face!

Bang!!!

Tristan\'s unexpected move stunned the captain. Following this, Tristan threw a punch at Jenkins\' stomach before throwing another one.

With the captain in pain from the hard punches, 

Tristan used the brief moment to use his newly-upgraded blood synthesis to swiftly construct a stronger blade and cut the captain\'s legs.

The man quickly fell to the ground, howling in pain.

Knowing that the man had an immortal body and was able to regenerate, Tristan quickly put the god stone back on him.

"You lost, Captain."
