Day 50We managed to get out of the location where I couldn’t use magic. So obviously, the first thing I tried to do was create a portal. I managed to do that. That was how far I got before…“Found you!”DING![Notice: Sensing Incoming Waves of Immense Chaos Energy]Behind me, moving as fast lightning was a blackness. In fact, I couldn’t say it was moving. It was basically flashing before me, closing the distance in mere seconds. And I knew for a fact that I was looking very far away.[You have been inflicted with [Absurd Fear]][You will not be able to move till you overcome this fear]My body was stuck in place. Behind me, the princess on the other hand was moving towards the portal. Kawaii grabbed me, it would seem she realised that I was stuck. But that wasn’t the important thing here. What the heck was this thing coming after us.I blinked, then there was a hand over my body. It grabbed me hard and it felt like my bones were shattering.[You have received the status [Broken Bones
The scent of fluxior herbs being melted by acid wafted through the air. The bubbling of chemicals in glass containers over a bright orange flame sent puffs of white gas from the container’s tip. There was a large set up of tubes on a desk, with substances of all sorts, being mixed methodologically and with the utmost care, just to produce one single potion.The potion possessed a dark purple colour as well as bowel-aggravating scent. The one in charge of the experiment took up the vial and looked at it closely, her dark eyes scanning for any errors. Putting her hand to the tip, she shook the vial vigorously for a few more seconds, then brought it back to observe. There was no visible change and the woman shrugged. She put down the vial in a tube rack, where other vials of similar colour were found.They all possessed varying shades of the colour, purple.Slowly, she removed her white gloves made out of slime resin and quickly disposed of them into her special storage ring. Normally, a
The leaves on the tree rustled gently in the hot afternoon sun. Under one of the trees, a young man rested with his arms folded. The bangs of his blonde hair covered his eyes, providing a bit more shade to his eyes. The scent of something cooking wafted through the air and tickled his nose and roused his stomach.His eyes opened slowly and were met with sunlight piercing through the gaps in the trees. He sat still, just looking up at the sky in thought for a second, before a smile crept onto his face. Quickly, he jumped up and made his way towards the camp site.It was a good 5-minute walk to the campsite, way shorter if he decided to run. He was only able to smell the food due to his high sensitivity he had built up as an adventurer. He chose the distance since it would allow him to react to any form of danger with the party members in time, while allowing him enough break time from the members. He usually did this whenever his party set up camp. This was his own way of clearing his
“Huuuuuuuuuuuhhhhh?!”Daxia’s cry echoed out in the ocean. Even though I could feel my ear drums bursting, I didn’t move to cover them. Akira’s attempt at manipulating Daxia seemed to be going on well enough, so I wouldn’t dare to even ruin his plans.“Come on, come on. Everybody wants someone strong on their side.”‘I’m sick and tired of you overpowered freaks doing whatever you want. I just want to go to Atlantis.’“Eh? Why would you want to go to such a boring place? Atlantis is just filled with snobby brats hiding behind shiny armour.”‘Well, snobby brats aren’t causing my mana to run rampant, now, are they?’“Come on, we both know you aren’t interested in Atlantis. People like us prefer the wild, where no tamed men stay.”‘I hate the wild. I almost died on more than a hundred occasions in the wild in only under a month. I want tamed for once.’“So, you admit that you’re just like me. Born and bred in the wild.”‘You’re only hearing what you want to hear.’“Yes.”‘AH! You admit it
So, this was weird. After giving Akira access to the main body, I decided to explore my inner mind. I found out how Akira kept himself entertained in my head. He was simply rewatching all the movies I’d watched while working on fusing skills. He had this entire man cave dedicated to himself. Well, if you were stuck in a body, might as well enjoy it.Just as I was about to watch one anime, I received various alerts. The most alarming being,[Warning! A massive surge of Chaos Energy is being shot your way.][Warning! Prolonged exposure will cause irreversible damage to you][Warning! The Chaos Energy is corrupting your [Sacred: Legend of Pandemonium]]With that, I had the right to question Akira. Well, I doubted I could have handled the situation any better, but still… now I felt stupid for leaving it to him… myself. Gaah!I was currently floating in a weird blackness. I couldn’t feel anything. Not my wings, not my legs, nothing. I was just there in the void.Enough time to just talk ab
Day 51[Due to the unique skill [Evolver], you have acquired the unique skill [Energy Transcriber]][Due to the excess exposure to chaos energy your body was morphed][Due to the unique skill [Energy Transcriber] the excess chaos energy has been converted into Mana][Your mana circuits have been expanded][Your current mana limitation is 10,000][Your current magic power is 500]Several system alerts had blocked my vision. I groaned lightly as I looked around. My head was aching a bit and all I couldn’t really see here. It was dark, but I could make out a figure with [God’s Wisdom]. It was the named sharkman from before. Bastien.He was standing towards the only exit I could make out, not moving even a single inch. I wasn’t sure how he’d react to me being awake so I stayed still while considering my options.Creating a portal would definitely alert him to my presence. Would it be possible to sneak past him? With his skills [Wave Area], [Aura Sense], [Presence Detection] and [Mind’s Ey
“Thank you.”The princess, still shaken from her near-death encounter managed. The wolf fishman looked at her as he sheathed his sword.“It was just my duty, your highness.”He replied and straightened his back. He held a black orb up to his face and scanned it. He applied a bit more pressure to the orb, trying to crack it, but the princess noticed this early.“Don’t do that.”She snatched the orb from his hand protectively and put it at her side, while cautiously swimming back from the guard.“Excuse me?”He was perplexed. He failed to understand why she didn’t allow him to destroy it. That was the very creature that just attempted to kill her, so why would she protect it?“No need to worry about that. Who are you, anyways?”She quickly changed the topic, not feeling like explaining. After thinking over the situation, she realised that she could have ended up causing a war between Hinotori’s people and Atlantis. The best course of action would be killing the slime if she didn’t want
‘What do you mean I can see them all?’I asked her, failing to understand how one would be able to see all the cities. She put her hand to her chin, mauling over her possible answer.‘Got any reasons, agent?’>‘Are you talking about with magic?’“No. Hmm… it’s a bit hard to explain. I’ll show you when we get there.”‘Sure… in that case, I guess I’ll need to prepare.’After coming to a conclusion, I decided the best option would be to prepare for the upcoming event. Even after we both came to an understanding, Daxia still wanted to fight me to assess my true strength and kept bugging me about my true name. Obviously, I never conceded to any of those requests and focused on my preparations.Akkun and Akira were both on a roll, with Akira’s progression into the Dark Arts raising to a whole level 4. I acquired a few new magics. [Blood Magic] and [Curse Magic]. Both of which were t
