Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 882: Distributing Elixirs

-----

After the initial shock, the news about this new ability to grant Talents to non-talent-wielders was taken surprisingly easy. I suppose my family was already used to these sorts of surprising things…

"So I was thinking on granting Talents to mom and grandma." I said. "You don't mind, right?"

"M-Me?!" My mother asked. "But what good would that even do? It's not like I even fight myself, it would be a waste of Spirit Orbs, dear."

"I'm so old I might croak at any moment, save those resources, my grandson. I appreciate the kindness though." My grandmother giggled.

It seemed the two were adamant against it. I've gathered several thousands of B Rank Spirit Orbs, so I was still in a good amount for my next Summons.

But I suppose I cannot really fight against their will… My mother is younger than my grandmother though, and although she says she doesn't fight, it would be better she did than not.

"You can't just say that! He's offering you a great opportunity, you two should definitely get a Talent!" Sighed my father. "If I could change my lame Farmer Talent I would gladly do so, but I am stuck with it."

"Well, it has progressed quite a lot since you were a one-star farmer, haven't you noticed?" I asked him. "It's already three-star, Grandmaster Farmer."

"EH?! Wait, really?!" My father looked at the status I appraised out of him through my Grimoire. "Wow, so this is my entire Status?! It even has numbers and Skills I didn't even know I had! What the hell… Can't I keep this page, Blake?"

"Sure." I nodded. "The grimoire can grow an infinite amount of pages and it regenerates torn ones easily, so take it with you. I usually give a page with their status to all my friends."

"Thank you my son!" My father happily ripped apart the page, looking at his status in detail.

It even held some magical abilities, as whenever you pressed a skill or something else, information about them would appear.

This effect would remain in the page forever, the page would also not dry out, it would not become wet even when thrown into water, and it would always remain pristine and with its original abilities.

The best part, whenever someone's status upgraded, it would show how much they have progressed… However, right now I can only appraise people with Status below five-star, the rest only shows very little information.

"So? Come on, I know you want a Talent, mom." I smiled. "It doesn't exactly have to be for fighting either. A Talent for cooking, or sewing, even magic! How about conjuring all sorts of spells out of nowhere? Life would become so much easier." I tried to tempt her.

"I-I have already received enough from you, my son. Enough is enough, alright?" She sighed, crossing her arms.

"Aw Mary, come on…" Sighed my father.

"Joan, we've received so much from our precious son, I don't want to ask him anything anymore! I am fine as I am!" My mother remained adamant, crossing her arms.

I guess it cannot be helped, she was adamant on the decision. My grandmother wasn't any different. Maybe being stubborn comes in the family.

"Well, at least my siblings got amazing talents and some new familiars that will protect them and grow quickly unlike spirits, which grow based in our cultivation." I sighed in relief. "Mom, dad, are you sure you don't want one of these too? I could train them for you guys and-"

"Nah, we're good, son." My dad said. "You've already showed me I've grown stronger on my own ways. Despite being still stuck at Rank 1 of my Spirit Orb because I have not much affinity with Cultivation, I've "leveled up" a lot, and my stats are looking higher than I thought!"

"You're perhaps a very rare case, someone at Rank 1 that is probably as strong as Rank 3 Spirit Masters." I nodded.

Aside from people being born without Talents, sometimes the opposite happens, mostly within serf families, they are born with the inability to cultivate spiritual energy.

This means they're usually stuck with a single spirit and can't go past Rank 1. This is something I've been trying to fix for a while now, but because my parents and grandma have been stuck at Rank 1 for so long, their Spirit Orbs have "deteriorated" and can no longer advance.

This process has to begin at a young age, the reason why my friends were able to get so far even when belonging to similar families.

It is something I am still trying to figure out, forcefully letting spirit energy flow into their spirit orb might break it, which could kill them.

It is more delicate than simply giving a Talent, it would need a complete reconstruction of the Spirit Orb, a process and technique I have to find out myself.

Maybe through some sort of miraculous elixir, but none of the materials available I possess will help in the making of this miraculous "Spirit Orb Rejuvenation" Elixir, so it is on hold for now.

Though, my father and my mother have been leveling up on their own anyways. My mother seems to be able to passively gain EXP through cooking, sewing, and attending the crops.

Despite having no Talent, she can still Rank Up, even though she won't get a new Talent, she has Ranked Up once, and is now Level 26, she still thinks she's weak, but her stats are high enough she can do a lot of things without feeling so tired.

Probably the reason why she's so durable in all matter of home duties, she's really a super mom, especially after I awakened her Ki.

And my father… Well, I brought him these.

"Here dad, I know you're a hunter, so at least you need to keep growing stronger." I said, giving him five bottles of Dragon Blood Elixir. "Last time I prioritized Allen and Anna, but now's your turn. I can't do anything about your Spirit Orb yet, but I'll look what I can do in the future. These elixirs will help you get stronger and gain dragon skills."

"T-These Elixirs… Dragon Elixirs?!" My dad was shaken. "A-Are you sure?!"

"Of course, don't hesitate." I laughed. "It is just me repaying you for always protecting me when I was younger, and also for being the village's strongest hunter."

"My son…" He cried. "Very well, I'll take them!"
