The Tower Reversed: Back to 18 (Venus) novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109 Blood Binding

June took the money and left on her electric scooter.

After that, Venus shut herself in her bedroom.

She sat cross-legged on the bed and placed the ancient silver artifact on the covers in front of her.

“The blood omen curse can be resolved, but his short lifespan….

11

Simply put, even if the blood omen curse was resolved, there were still other death tribulations waiting for

Drake.

According to her past life’s timeline, he wouldn’t live past the age of 30.

Ten years left.

Every passing minute and second would drain away Drake’s life force.

Even if he could survive ten years, those years would see him growing weaker and weaker, barely clinging to life.

She’d promised Saul she wouldn’t let Ralph outlive his grandson.

Of course, she had her own selfish reasons too.

In her past life, Drake had been so good to her. If he hadn’t died, his life would have been so much more brilliant.

Venus stared at the ancient silver artifact, frowning.

The spiritual energy contained in the ancient silver artifact was dense, protected by a mysterious white light. If she added her own energy to it, it would surely keep him safe and sound!

An hour and a half later.

June came back with the medicinal herbs and was abou to knock on Venus’s bedroom door.

The door suddenly opened.

A pale, bloodless face appeared before her.

June was shocked and quickly supported her. “Ms. Oracle, you look awful. What happened? Is it that time of the month?”

Venus looked like all her energy had been drained. Her face and lips were completely pale, looking utterly exhausted.

Venus waved her hand. “I’m fine. Help me brew all these herbs. I’ll drink them when I get back.”

“Alright. Do you need a hand?”

“No need …

Venus gripped the ancient silver artifact tightly and went next door to ring the doorbell.

Saul came to the door immediately, beaming when he saw her. “Ms. Oracle is here!”

“Is Mr. Drake home?”

“Yes, he’s reading.”

As soon as Venus entered, she saw Drake sitting on the living room couch, absorbed in a book.

This time he wasn’t wearing pajamas but a simple set of casual clothes.

Seeing her arrive, Drake was startled, but a smile quickly appeared in his eyes.

“What brings Ms. Oracle here?”

Venus walked up to him and bent down slightly.

A fresh, delicate fragrance from the young woman instantly washed over him.

Drake casually set down his book, feeling surprised. “Ms. Oracle, what are you doing?”

More precisely, what was she planning to do getting so close to him?

Saul’s old face turned red as he quietly looked away.

But the moment he looked away, he heard Drake cry out in pain.

“Venus, what are you doing?”

Saul quickly looked up and saw Oracle Supreme gripping Drake’s hand.

A healing needle was stuck in his finger.

Venus slowly pulled out the healing needle and squeezed out fresh blood.

As the blood oozed out, she eagerly pulled out the ancient silver artifact and let the blood drip onto it.

Venus released his hand, held the ancient silver artifact and muttered an incantation that neither of them

could understand.

The drop of blood was quickly absorbed completely by the ancient silver artifact, which became even more luminous and clear.

Venus handed him the ancient silver artifact. “Here. It’s for you.”

Drake stared at the familiar ancient silver artifact being handed to him, feeling dazed. “For me?”

Wasn’t this the ancient silver artifact he’d donated to the auction?

Saul recognized it too and said in surprise, “Isn’t this-

“Thank you.” Drake interrupted Saul, glanced at him with deep eyes, then smiled and accepted the ancient

silver artifact.

Saul wisely closed his mouth.

Venus smiled. “You don’t need to thank me. After all, I bought it with your money-600 million.”

Drake didn’t mind that his own item had been bought back with his own money and given to himself.

He was just curious. “Why did you use my blood on the ancient silver artifact just now?”

Venus explained, “The ancient silver contains dense spiritual energy with white aura surrounding it. The blood binding is like when protagonists in movies bond with magical artifacts. Simply put, after the blood binding, you become the ancient silver artifact’s host.”

Drake knew the ancient silver artifact had extraordinary origins, but the house was full of extraordinary antiques. He rarely paid attention to such things.

He hadn’t expected Venus to buy it back.

After going full circle, it had returned to him. It seemed they were fated.

Drake looked up, gazing at her with a pleased smile. “I really like this gift. You put a lot of thought into it. Thank you.”
