"Paskeshis's Gift (Gift of the Blood Queen)"

This ability was the benefit the Blood Clan Council had previously given Solam. Of course, it did not actually have much to do with Piscaethces, the Blood Queen. It was merely a name; they could have called it anything. It just sounded more impressive this way.

In simpler terms, this ability was the "Blood Ignition Art" found in martial arts novels. By burning the blood within the body, it granted the user comprehensive boosts to strength, agility, and defense. Put bluntly, it was similar to Berserk.

It genuinely consumed blood, causing the amount of blood in the body to steadily decrease until not a single drop remained, turning the user into a dried corpse.

Therefore, this ability was extremely dangerous! One careless use could cost someone their life.

However, since the Blood Clan Council had given Solam this ability as a benefit, they naturally did not intend to screw him over to death. After all, no matter how big Solam was, how much blood could he possibly have? Thus, along with this ability, the Blood Clan Council adjusted the recovery ability granted by the Blood Clan Covenant, allowing it to replenish Solam's consumed blood more quickly.
