"Hmm? 100% blood purity is impossible to achieve?" Asked Wain.

"Not really, but like I said, even most gods can\'t do it. However, this information is unreliable. You must understand that beings with 100% blood purity are more perfect than an absolute." Sven said slowly.

"You say something impossible, but I understand you. If you don\'t know if it\'s possible and how to achieve such a level, do you know what beings can possess such blood purity?"

"Yes, I can guess. First of all, the original dragons. I\'m sure some of them have 100% blood purity. They are one of the creatures that keep an eye on the purity of their blood, and so their status and power are astounding."

"Hmm, how strong is a dragon with 100% blood purity?"

Sven didn\'t answer right away. Instead, he bent down and pulled an ice cube from the freezer. He squeezed the ice cube tightly and shattered it into many pieces.

"Just as easily a primordial dragon could destroy a continent or a small planet."

When Wain heard this, he froze. Such power was something beyond his comprehension. Until recently, one planet had been his entire world.

Of course, Wain was aware of the existence of space, but it was unexplored and lifeless terrain, at least in his solar system.

"Destroy a planet or a continent... Is it possible to fight such a creature? I mean, in the first minute of the battle, a dragon would destroy the arena and everything around it."

"The world of Darkness is limitless, you can always find an endless, lifeless wasteland, or you can fight outside the Voids, in spatial rifts. I told you earlier that some creatures are powerful enough to travel from one space to another without using portals.

Their bodies are strong enough to keep the energy of the World of Darkness from tearing them apart. Obviously, dragons with 100% blood purity are one of those creatures."

"That\'s... impressive..."

In theory, Wain knew he was powerful and understood how powerful other creatures could be. But, he was still at the bottom of the food chain. He had only taken a few steps climbing a mountain whose summit was hidden behind the clouds.

Even the mere knowledge that beings of such power exist affects his worldview. Wain now understands that power can indeed be limitless.

"Okay, I get it, but dragons are monsters or mythical creatures. I don\'t know which group to put them in. Give me an example from some race."

"We\'ve been talking about vampires for quite some time, so I\'ll give you an example of them. No one knows for sure, but many believe that there was originally only one vampire, the progenitor, obviously in that case that vampire had a blood purity of 100%."

"Hmm, if that\'s true, then it confirms the theory that Ghouls can become Vampires, doesn\'t it?" Asked Wain.

"Not really. First of all, no one knows if a vampire progenitor actually exists, and even if it does, nothing is known about its abilities."

"You mean it\'s possible that the vampire progenitor can turn other creatures into vampires without turning them into Ghouls?"

"Yes, it\'s also possible he can create vampires in some way. Maybe from his blood or flesh, maybe from energy. It\'s all just a guess. A creature like a vampire progenitor would have incredible power."

"If the vampire progenitor actually exists, who do you think is stronger, him or the original dragon?" Asked Wain.

"I\'m not sure, but although the vampire progenitor\'s power isn\'t extensive enough to destroy a planet, that doesn\'t mean he couldn\'t kill a dragon."

"I see, but why is it impossible to achieve 100%? Don\'t you have to possess some potion or ritual to do it? Maybe you need a rare plant or drink the blood of another powerful creature?" Wain muttered.

"It\'s not that simple. As I said earlier, the higher the percentage of blood purity, the harder it is to raise. It\'s a logical pattern, but you don\'t understand what 100% blood purity is and why it\'s so important."

"What do you mean? Isn\'t it logical that the higher the blood purity, the more power a person has from his race and energy?"

"All true, but, Wain, answer a simple question. Assuming that a vampire progenitor exists and all vampires evolved from it, where did the first generation vampires come from?"

Wain stood in a stupor. It was logical that it took a man and a woman, two of the same race, of different sexes, for a child to be born. However, if there was originally only a vampire progenitor, he didn\'t have a pair.

"As I said earlier, there is a theory that the vampire progenitor created the first vampires from other creatures with his special abilities or his blood and flesh. For either of the two, he doesn\'t need a pair." Sven pronounced.

"Hmm, I understand why in the first option, the purity of blood of the first generation vampires would not be 100% because their basis would be other creatures, and the blood of the progenitor would be mixed. However, shouldn\'t the first vampires in the second option have 100% blood purity?" Wain pondered.

"There, we\'re getting to the most important point of our conversation about blood purity. Your words sound logical, but you don\'t know one important detail, or rather you don\'t understand it yet.

Let\'s imagine the situation that the progenitor of vampires created the first vampires from his flesh and blood. However, the best result would be 99% blood purity in such a case. Why?"

"Hmm? I don\'t know... Maybe there are some impurities during the vampire\'s birth? Although...that sounds weird."

"You\'re right, there is indeed an impurity, but you\'re not used to thinking of this thing as an impurity. The remaining 1% that separates the first generation vampire from the progenitor is energy."

"What...?" Wain couldn\'t believe what he heard.

He thought of energy as something intangible moreover, energy is power, and it was strange to him that it was an impurity.

"That\'s exactly right. In this case, the impurity is energy." Sven said calmly.

"Hmm? Does that mean the vampire progenitor has no energy? But, how is that possible...?"

"No, you\'re wrong." Sven shook his head, "The vampire progenitor has billions of times more energy than other vampires. It\'s all about the different types of energy and the relationship to it."

Wain was silent. He tried to make sense of his and Sven\'s conversation as he learned a new fact every second.

"Wain, no offense, but at this point, you\'re nobody. I\'m not saying this based on your power, skills, or influence, but on energy. Part of your power is energy, but that energy is not yours. Do you understand what I\'m saying?"

"Yes... Even though I am a human, I still absorb energy from the souls of other beings. Before I died, these beings absorbed energy from their environment, roughly speaking, it\'s not their energy." Mumbled Wain, beginning to see where Sven was going with this.

"Right, it can be compared to blood. For example, you\'ve lost a lot of blood, and they transfuse you with another person\'s blood to stabilize your condition.

Even though that blood will be in you and your body will use it, that blood is not yours. Figuratively speaking, over time, that blood will become yours. It\'s a similar situation with energy, but it\'s much more complicated." Sven said.

"You mean that the vampire progenitor itself is a source of energy, and it is completely independent of the energy in the environment?"

"Yes, that\'s exactly what it is. That\'s what separates creatures with 100% blood purity from everyone else. In this respect, a person with 99% blood purity is no different from someone with 1% blood purity.

Their strength, status, abilities, skills, intelligence, and all other factors are different, but they all use external energy." Sven pronounced.

"It\'s too early for you to think about it. It\'s the top of the world, something even I\'m not sure about. But, I told you this to get you thinking. You need to try to rely more on yourself. Your body, your melee and sword skills, and on the strength of your soul." Sven pronounced.

"What? Don\'t I need outside energy to use my soul skills?"

"Yes, but it\'s your power. I never said that all energy in you or other creatures is outer. Your soul is your power, your energy. It is your core as well as Soul Altar, yet you have a lot of external energy in you as well."

"I see, simply put, to become a creature comparable to a vampire progenitor or an original dragon, you need to become powerful enough to take out your external energy and concentrate entirely on your own."

"Yes, that\'s just in general terms. There\'s also something else I have to say. For example, if two Elves with a blood purity of 80% have offspring, the child\'s blood purity will be just below 80%, about 78-79%.

"That makes sense. In this case, one or two percent takes energy, but it\'s a small problem." Mumbled Wain.

"Okay, I think the blood purity thing makes sense to you. I remembered I forgot to tell you something about vampires."

"I\'m listening to you carefully." Proclaimed Wain.

"We started talking about blood because vampires have more to do with it than other races. I think you know that they use their fangs to sink into the flesh of their enemies and drink their blood. That\'s probably the best-known fact about vampires."

Wain nodded.

"It\'s one of their abilities. During combat, they can become distracted by another target and drink its blood if there is one. In that case, the vampire will regenerate quickly, their energy and their regeneration will be accelerated, even if the vampire is under the sunlight."

"I see. That was expected. Sven, I think I have many more races to learn about, but I need to think about what you said. I want to take a short break. I need to think about your words."

"Sure." Smiling, Sven said. "Would you like something to drink? I\'ll include it in the price for the information."

"Yes." Wain nodded, "Whiskey, just whiskey."

"Sure."

Wain took a white cigarette out of the packet and smoked. He looked at the cloud-like smoke and pondered.

\'Humans... I initially thought that because humans in my world never messed with other races, I had 100% blood purity, but now I doubt that.

Maybe Sven is wrong, he isn\'t sure about his information about vampire progenitors, and he can\'t know much about humans. However, after the energy appeared, it absorbed into my body and Soul Altar.\'

Wain tried to make sense of the nature of humans. Although he had recently learned vastly, there were still many times more questions than answers. Blood and energy were another mystery.

\'It\'s complicated... too complicated... Though Sven said that blood purity equal to 100% could only be in such creatures as the progenitor of a race or a primordial mythical creature comparable to a dragon, is it true?

Many parameters depend on blood purity, but only indirectly and not directly. Perhaps I, as a human, have my own way?\' Wain pondered.

One of his global goals, besides gaining power and exploring the world, was to find and learn more about humans. He was curious to learn more about them and perhaps answer all his questions.

Wain wanted to know why his world was destroyed? Did other worlds exist just like his? What happened a long time ago that caused the nature of humans to change completely?

There were many questions, and even one of them was as difficult to answer as finding the holy grail.

Wain also wanted to know the percentage of purity of his blood and if possible, to raise it to 100%. He wasn\'t after strength, but there was also a reason why he wanted to get stronger.

Besides the fact that might would help him find answers to questions, he knew that he could be truly free only by possessing limitless power.

That was why he wanted to have 100% blood purity because it meant complete independence from everything.

That way, he could get closer to the true freedom he had always dreamed of. Of course, the concept of freedom is subjective for everyone, but Wain preferred the simplest formulation.

\'Freedom is the ability to do whatever you want, without fear or restraint.\'
