Taming My Vampire Servant - Chapter 206
[Dear readers, don’t get confused: Unholy Mana (term they used in the past) is the same as Dark Mana (term they currently use)]

Wolfram nodded at her. “This is why you were brought here, Ivory. We will fully awaken your Werewolf abilities, and put the Unholy Mana in you to sleep. That way, you will only use the Silverblade mana.”
“But isn’t it better if I have two kinds of mana in battle?”
“The enemies can make a person be uncontrollable through the Unholy Mana. We can’t let them have that chance.”
Ivory contemplated her father’s explanation. He’s right. After all, throughout her journey, she already saw several people losing themselves under the evil mana’s influence.
“But father… I am going to be weaker,” she worriedly told him.
Suddenly, a man’s voice said, “Do not worry. I am going to give you a luminous pearl.”
Ivory and Wolfram glanced at the exit of the dungeon and saw Prince Levian, and behind him were Priestess Althaia, the Werewolves, and the disciples of the Sanctuary.
“Luminous pearl?” Ivory raised her eyebrows.
Levi stood in front of the two, while the others stood at the side. He told Ivory, “It is a powerful artifact of the Silverblades. You will have ten times more power if you embed it to your skin,” he suddenly unbuttoned the first three buttons of his shirt, exposing his firm chest with a small, circular item on its surface. He pointed at it. “This is one of the three luminous pearls. I gave the other one to someone, and I will give you the last one.”
“How… If I am your Servant, can I keep such an important thing?”
“You are half human, so you will be able to receive its power,” the prince held out his hand to her, “Shall we start?”
Ivory first glanced at Wolfram, and after seeing him nod, she took her Master’s hand.
“Choose where I will put the luminous pearl.”
“Uhh… Where should I…”
Levi sighed, “It’s up to you.”
“In the forehead,” she answered.
“Very well… Brace yourself, this will hurt a lot.”
Ivory then knelt in front of Prince Levian, and clenched her fists very tightly.
Levi unwrapped a small velvet cloth with a pretty shell inside. He opened the shell, then took the pearl, which had a bluish glow. The prince then cupped Ivory’s chin with his left hand, then with his right hand, he positioned the pearl on her forehead.
He then concentrated his strong mana onto the pearl and pushed it onto her forehead, making Ivory scream in pain!
It lasted a whole one minute before the luminous pearl was fully embedded to her skin. Ivory felt weak, and she almost fell to the sand. Fortunately, Levi grabbed her arm and pulled her closer to him.
“Ivory, how do you feel?” he uttered near her ears.
The pain in her head was gone, but she still felt dizzy. She told him, “Uhh… I am alright.”
Levi assisted her to stand up.
Wolfram approached them and asked his daughter, “Can you still handle another ritual?”
Ivory held onto Levi’s arm, trying not to lose balance. Even so, she said that she can handle it.
“The luminous pearl will take effect after an hour. Why don’t you rest first?” Levi suggested. “We can do the other ritual once you’ve regained energy.”
Ivory was about to reply, but suddenly, her sight blacked out.
Hours had passed when she woke up, and she was in one of the sleeping rooms of the disciples. The first person she saw was Levi, who was sitting beside the bed while reading a scroll.
When he noticed Ivory’s movement in his peripheral vision, he looked at her, “Ivory. I’m glad you’re awake. How do you feel?”
Ivory sat back up and observed herself if she felt anything. Surprisingly, it was as if she never fell unconscious. “I am okay now. I feel… stronger.”
“The luminous pearl’s power already took effect, then,” Levi rolled the scroll and tied it with a jute string. He placed it on the table, then stood up, asking Ivory to come with him.
The two of them walked out of the disciple’s sleeping room and went to the center of the Sanctuary’s bridge. Everyone was already there, as if waiting for Ivory to arrive.
In the middle was a circle, with symbols drawn that Ivory was not familiar with. She was made to stand up within, which she obediently did.
A blinding light then enveloped her. Surprised by this, Ivory asked, “What is this for?”
Wolfram answered her, “It’s to make your Unholy Mana sleep, and awaken all of your Werewolf abilities.”
“But what will happen to Sigmund?” she asked in a worried tone.
Levi answered, “He will stay under Xenos’ supervision. Do not worry about him, your Dark Mana will only be put to sleep. It will not affect his existence.”
“Then… please take care of him for me.”
The prince sighed, disliking how the Vampire Servant occupied Ivory’s mind even though they were already apart. He wished for Ivory to just focus on their goal to take down the Dragonicus clan.
Moments later, Wolfram and the other Werewolves with wolf ears encircled Ivory and chanted a spell. Ivory quietly stood in the glowing circle, waiting for what would happen to her.
After a while, she felt her whole body becoming itchy. When she was about to scratch her skin, she suddenly saw her nails slowly getting pointed. She stared at it with horror in her eyes as she watched it grow a little longer than before. She then noticed tiny fur growing on her wrists and when she panned her sight on her arms, the surface of her skin grew shining silver fur!
She sat down as if she was pulled to the ground. She closed her eyes, not wanting to see how her own body would transform in front of everyone. Her whole body ached as if her bones were about to break, and as she crawled and dug her nails into the deck, she screeched in pain.
When the light dissipated, the magic circle also disappeared. In front of them was a huge wolf with the luminous pearl embedded in her forehead, with its silver fur turning white with the touch of the moonlight.

Everyone was fascinated by the most beautiful Werewolf they have ever seen.
Levi could only gape in awe when he saw Ivory’s Werewolf form. He couldn’t believe that such a magnificent Servant would be with him to reclaim his throne.
Noticing Levi’s gaze, Ivory walked slowly towards him. She sniffed him, recognizing his sweet scent.. “Master…” she muttered, looking at him with longingness in her eyes.
