Chapter 423: Ways to restore Family storage space
"Ahh..." Idan groaned softly as his consciousness slowly began to return to reality.
It had already been two days since he accepted the offer from the Supreme Bloodline System. After he drank the potion and heard the brand new voice of the System, which sounded in his head without stopping until Idan lost consciousness.
Before he could fully wake up, Idan felt a weight on his chest. It was as if something heavy was preventing him from breathing.
Slowly, with difficulty, he opened his eyes and saw a small red silhouette of a strange creature in front of him.
As his eyes adjusted to the light, Idan met the gaze of two large red eyes with vertical pupils. Those eyes stared straight at him, unblinking.
Idan and the little creature stared unblinkingly into each other's eyes, as if playing a staring game.
Idan gave up first, blinking, and a satisfied smile appeared on the creature's small face.
Only then did Idan pay attention to the body of the little creature. It was a little bigger than Coco. It had four small horns on its head, a dragon's face, two large and two small wings on its back, four limbs, and a long tail.
"A dragon?" was the first thought that came to Idan's mind as he took a full look at the little creature's body.
The dragon, after sitting on Idan's chest for a while longer, jumped off and plopped into the lava, disappearing into it.
Soon, a part of the head and two large eyes appeared out of the lava, staring at Idan without taking their eyes off.
As Idan watched the dragon with interest, a series of messages from the System appeared in front of him.
[Host, congratulations on successfully merging the two bloodline slots!]
[Ding! The first Bloodline slot, the Alpha of Fire Bloodline, has been changed to become the Alpha Bloodline.]
[Ding! The second Bloodline slot has merged with the first and is now a slot for additional bloodlines.]
[Ding! There are currently three additional bloodlines available.]
[Ding! The Alpha of Fire Bloodline is available]
[Ding! The Alpha of Light Bloodline has been unlocked.]
[Ding! The Alpha of Madness Bloodline has been unlocked.]
"What... What the hell?" — finally, tearing his gaze away from the dragon, Idan turned his attention to the system notifications.
Idan was slightly stunned, but then he decided to check his status to make sure.
The first thing he saw was his stats, which had returned to their original level. However, then something else caught his attention: the line of the "Bloodlines" function.
-----------------------------------

-----------------------------------
"Alpha of Fire has changed into the Alpha Bloodline..." noted Idan, then his gaze swept over the second bloodline slot, where three Alpha Bloodlines appeared: Alpha of Fire, Alpha of Light, and Alpha of Madness.
"System, how is my bloodline functioning now?" Idan asked the System.
[Host, in the process of merging, the Supreme Bloodline System has made significant changes that have completely transformed your first bloodline slot and the second slot.]
…
The system repeated what she had recently told Arabel about her bloodlines, this time addressing Idan.
"So that's how it works now," Idan nodded, realizing the new knowledge about his bloodline.
He was very happy to have the opportunity to have multiple Alpha bloodlines at once. He was also pleased that the changes did not completely change the "Bloodlines" function, and they still had the opportunity to get others.
Then Idan, remembering the Vampire Bloodline potion, thought about his ruined spatial storage.
"System, is there a way to restore the family spatial storage?" he asked.
[Yes, there is such a way,] the System replied bluntly.
[The foundation of the "family spatial storage" artifact has remained intact. Only the "space" itself was destroyed.]
[There are several options for restoring the "space" inside the artifact.]
[The first solution is to purchase a pocket world in the «Trade» function and integrate it into an artifact using the services of another Supreme System. However, this option is not available at the current level of Host development. Pocket worlds will become available for purchase only after reaching the Highest Realm.]
[The second solution is to post a public order to restore the artifact without buying anything in the «Trade» function. However, this method has two significant drawbacks.: The cost of System Points for completing an order may be overestimated, and there is also a possibility that other Supreme Systems that will undertake the task will demand something in return.]
[The third solution is to find another possible way to restore the artifact in both worlds.]
[This System recommends considering the third solution first.]
"Are you suggesting that we find a way to restore the 'Family Spatial Storage' in Junonia and in our world?" asked Idan.
[Yes], the System replied.
[The System made this decision, considering that the Hosts received the "Land ownership" for completing the World Task.]
"Land ownership?" Idan remembered the reward he had received. "System, what is it for? The ownership of which land is it?"
[This System suggests that the Hosts return to their world first. The rest will be known later.]
"Okay, — sighed Idan, agreeing with the System's advice. He decided to temporarily postpone the adoption of the first and second decisions. The first one, no matter how much they wanted to, was not available to them. And Idan postponed the second one as a last resort.
Looking up from the system window, Idan looked at the lava, but did not see the dragon. He looked around, but did not find his presence.
"Is he gone?" said Idan with slight disappointment.
Then his gaze fell on Lucinda, who, as before, was sitting to the side, watching him.
"I've been here for five days, there are two more left," Idan muttered, getting up from the lava.
He noticed that he was naked and calmly raised his head to look at Lucinda.
"Do you have any men's clothes with you?" he asked.
Lucinda didn't answer immediately. She studied Idan silently and carefully, not missing a single detail. Only after careful examination did she nod.
"Yes, there is," she said, and began to take out Idan's clothes, which she had brought with her, from her spatial storage.
Although Idan felt a little awkward standing naked in front of another woman, he knew that Lucinda had probably seen him like this many times before, so he didn't make a fuss or try to cover himself.
As soon as Idan got dressed, he was sure he heard a sigh of disappointment from Lucinda. When he looked at her, Lucinda met his gaze calmly, showing no embarrassment or other emotions.
Idan took one last look at the lava, hoping to see a dragon. But the dragon was nowhere to be seen.
"Okay, let's go back," Idan said to Lucinda, and she nodded and spread her four wings of Light. She soared up, picking up Idan with her Soul Force, and rushed at high speed towards the Forest of Doppelgangers.
At the same time, in the depths of the lava lake, the little dragon watched as Idan and Lucinda soared into the sky and flew away into the distance.
He continued to stare after them for a while, and then, turning around, headed towards the center of the Forbidden zone.
