They all call me Great Master-Chapter 663 - 660: Eighteen Contracts!
Before the enhancement of his bloodline and swordsmanship, Arthur, who possessed the "Mark of Thunder," could, in a sense, face 'Ascend Steppers'.
Moreover, with the trait of the "Mark of Thunder," as long as he wasn't instantly killed, Arthur could fight and, if not, escape.
However, the flickering of "Death Intuition" was signaling to Arthur that death was still a possibility.
That is to say, facing those tentacles, Arthur could very likely be killed instantaneously.
Therefore, the already cautious Arthur became even more careful.
Even while monitoring, he was extremely cautious.

But this time was different.
In the instant the abnormality occurred, Arthur's "Death Intuition" did not flicker.
Not just the "Death Intuition."
There was also...
"Spirituality"!
You must know, during the previous flickering of "Death Intuition," Arthur's "Spirituality" was almost boiling, making him feel uncomfortable.
But this time, his "Spirituality" was as calm as the everyday state of still water.
This gave Arthur a bit of confidence.
He tried to maintain his focus.
From the corner of his eye to direct gaze, there were no abnormalities.
This made Arthur subconsciously check his bloodline and swordsmanship that had just been enhanced.
Arthur's gaze moved back and forth over the annotations of the bloodline and swordsmanship.
Eventually, the young 'Spirit Medium's gaze locked onto this phrase—
"You now also possess a trace of 'Divine Might,' which can crush the 'Spiritual Manifestations' of other Entrants!"
Reading this phrase, Arthur thought not of himself crushing other 'Entrants' but of the time before when he was crushed by such methods by the tentacles.
Clearly, this trace of 'Divine Might' was key!
"This fellow... um, are these two fellows the same as Xitidar?"
Arthur subconsciously thought of Xitidar, who was revered as the 'God of the Inner Sea.'
"Miha, Yiluo?
Shadow War!
Witch!"
Arthur looked at "Mikhail's Touch (Incomplete)," his mind whirling rapidly.
Being very curious about the 'Shadow War,' Arthur naturally tried hard to collect related information, but during the 'Holy Empire' era, The Holy Court ordered the burning of the 'Empire' period books, effectively making the records incomplete, and even if there were any, they were fragmented.
Of course, there must be complete records within The Holy Court.
After all, the 'Holy Empire' had what was known as the 'Centennial War' in its early years.
And in some Mystic Side Person's writings, the 'Centennial War' is referred to as the continuation of the 'Shadow War,' albeit still with no records.
But it was precisely for this reason that some people became even more certain.
Arthur had similar doubts.
But, Arthur would not indulge in speculation.
A Spirit Medium also needs solid evidence.
However, as a Spirit Medium, Arthur also knew how to seize opportunities.
Just like now—
Even if his bloodline was still marked as incomplete, and his swordsmanship had once again reached its limit.
But what of it?
He now had the qualifications to confront those tentacles directly!
This was enough!
You must know, when the enemy is strong and I am weak, even if there's continuous struggle and leveraging of momentum, the gains are still limited.
Even so-called victories can only be described as self-consolation.
But if the enemy is weak and I am strong...
No!
There's no need for the enemy to be weak and I to be strong!
As long as both parties are evenly matched, Arthur was confident he could snatch even their underpants!
'Marquess of West Berlin, third damsel, fourth damsel...'
Arthur murmured his targets in his heart, perfecting his plan.
As for that tentacle?
Arthur took out the "Mikhail's Touch (Fragmentary)" and placed it in his right hand.
Then, he took out the "Blood of Doting" and placed it in his left hand.
After that, Arthur brought his hands close together.
Without truly touching, the fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm within the "Blood of Doting" began to grow desperate, like a wild dog starved for three days faced with a bone approaching, continuously wagging its tail and making whine after whine.
Arthur carefully sensed this change and kept his hands moving closer.
But just as the palms of his hands were about to touch, Arthur pulled them apart again.
Instantly, the fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm grew anxious, as if the tail that should have been wagging had stopped, the whines turning into deep moans, and even its fangs were bared.
Then it began to bark crazily, just like a rabid dog.
At this, Arthur smiled.
He smiled very happily.
Walking dogs was his favorite pastime.
In the time that followed, Arthur kept repeating the previous actions.
The fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm inside the "Blood of Doting" became even more frantic.
Even roars began to sound by Arthur's ears.
However, Arthur was indifferent, still playing his game of walking the dog.
A wild dog is always a wild dog.
To make better use of it, it must become a domestic dog.
As for whether it could succeed?
Arthur was not worried.
Even wolves can become dogs under the lure of an egg yolk pie.
Why couldn't the Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm?
If it couldn't, it would mean that your egg yolk pie wasn't tempting enough.
And Arthur believed that the "Mikhail's Touch (Fragmentary)" had enough allure for the fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm.
Otherwise...
It wouldn't have "actively" exposed itself.
After obtaining the "Blood of Doting," Arthur had a "brief" exchange with the fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm.
Arthur believed his first intuition, just as he believed what he had felt was the most real.
Therefore, Arthur didn't mind borrowing the power of the "Blood of Doting," but he also never let down his guard.
Even at this moment, Arthur was wondering whether the fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm was almost unable to hold on, and that's why it had "actively" exposed itself after seeing "Mikhail's Touch (Fragmentary)."
Clearly, if that were the case, the other party would be risking everything.
And Arthur, he appreciated this courage.
Out of appreciation, Arthur didn't mind giving the other party a chance—
After dozens of tests, the fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm let out a roar.
Enough!
Arthur understood this roar.
Arthur immediately smiled.
Without any hesitation, Arthur began to draft seventeen contracts.
Starting with the Blood Ancestor Worm's name, methods of serving, lifestyle, and loyalty that could not be betrayed, he covered everything he could think of.
Seemingly worried that it wasn't secure enough.
Arthur took out an eighteenth contract.
He clearly wrote on it: If additions are needed, they can be made at any time, everything subject to the will of Arthur Kredos.
Were these eighteen contracts?
This was practically eighteen layers of hell!
The fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm didn't know the concept of the eighteen layers of hell, but sensing Arthur's smiling expression allowed it to feel as though it was stepping into the abyss.
But...
What it needed was within that abyss.
If it wanted to live, it had to go there.
How should it choose between life and death?
The fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm didn't hesitate for a moment.
The nearly instinct-driven, fragmented Bloodsucking Ancestor Worm swiftly signed its name, with not much spirituality left—
Abel.
