"Why can't it merge with curse-type items?" Vincent asked in his mind, wondering why the lesser-healing magic scroll can't marge with a curse-type item.
‹ As you might already know it, curse and healing are on opposing term. There's no way for them to exist below the same heaven. It's impossible to join a healing magic scroll with a curse-type material. The item will collapse, self-destruct, shatter into smithereens, the moment you do something like that ›
Blood cleared his confusion by telling him that two things made up of conflicting elements can not merge into one even if he uses the Power of Evil to merge them into one.
"I understand." Vincent nodded, indicating that he understood what Blood conveyed.
An instant after he said those words, a few notifications popped up in his mind, telling him that he has completed the daily task and received 50 experience points and the Shadow Jump inscription patterns as a reward.
‹ Experience points: 8610 ›
He asked his family heirloom to transfer the knowledge of the Shadow Jump inscription patterns directly to his mind as he wanted to learn them immediately. Ten units of his life force got subtracted, leaving him with 8600 units as a large amount of knowledge rushed into his mind. There were a total of 998 inscription patterns that a person needed to draw on a magic scroll by using the blood and the dark core of a Dark-type beast in order to create a Shadow Jump Scroll.
Drawing so many patterns in a single magic scroll isn't just hard but also mentally taxing and time-consuming.
Shadow Jump, however, was worth it. It was a magic scroll that allows a person to teleport, after all.
‹ Inscription Name: Shadow Jump ›
‹ Effect: Let's the user teleport from one shadow to another.
‹ Limit: Can teleport to any shadow within a 50-meter radius of where the user stands ›
Once Vincent was done with that, he used a clean, holy crystal, not infested with the parasitic seed of fusion, to complete the second lesser-healing magic scroll.
Now he had two lesser-healing magic scrolls, one infested with the parasitic seed of fusion while the other as clean as the one's in the market.
"Fuse," Vincent said the activation keyword in his mind, commanding the infested lesser-healing magic scroll to fuse with the other. And a moment after he said those words, dark tendrils stretched out from the magic scroll, stretching towards the other, seeping inside of it before stitching the two magic scrolls into one, making them overlap without any gap in between and look like one entity.
‹ Congratulations! You've fused two Lesser-Healing Magic Scroll to create Intermediate Healing Magic Scroll ›
‹ A person can use it to heal slash wounds, flesh wounds, crack in bones, burnt skin ›
The creation of this magic scroll was honestly just the beginning.
Vincent proceeded to create and merge one Lesser-Healer Magic Scroll after another until he ran out of Holy Core.
However, by that time, he had created four intermediate Healing Magic Scrolls.
He merged them to create two Advanced Healing Magic Scrolls.
He Merged the two of them to create a Major Healing Magic Scroll.
‹ Major Healing Magic Scroll ›
‹ Type: Special ›
‹ Effect: Heals all wounds, remove all curses and debuffs, free a person from all types of crowd control, shatter all illusions, restore limbs and internal organs ›
"And so, I ended up getting an end-game item at the very start of my journey," Vincent smirked as he felt cocky from every fiber of his being.
Who wouldn't be?
If someone could do something like him, they would have felt like they own the world.
Vincent shook his head and started to prepare another trump card. He had a lot of Dark-type monster's heart and core in his hands. He got them from killing the monsters in the woods. He planned to use all of them to create Shadow Jump Magic Scrolls. He will sell some of them to make quick bucks, keep some for himself and give the others to his girlfriend and friends.
Vincent cracked his knuckles as his lips thinned into a smile before he wore a mask and entered the subspace, taking away the items necessary to create the Shadow Jump Magic Scroll away from the monsters and the barren land.
Once he began creating Shadow Jump Magic Scrolls, he failed a few times as he messed up the inscription patterns. However, he didn't let failure become a study wall in his way to success. He kept on practicing drawing the inscription patterns of the Shadow Jump Magic Scroll until he got the hang of it. Then, he managed to create one Shadow Jump Magic Scroll after another, albeit he failed many times in the middle.
‹ You've created a Shadow Jump Magic Scroll ›

Nevertheless, in the end, he managed to create a lot of them.
He had around thirty of them, enough to make thousands of contribution points out of them and still be left with more than enough to give a few to each of the people close to him.
He decided to put the extras to use right away. He merged them one after another. The Shadow Jump magic scroll happened to be an intermediate-grade item. He only needed to combine four of them to create two advance-grade. And he then combined them to create a Major Shadow Jump Magic Scroll.
This magic scroll had the same effect as the ones before, but its limit has increased by a wide margin.
‹ Limit: Can teleport to any shadow that the user's eyes can lock on to ›
So, if he stands above the peak of a skyscraper and looks at the shadow on the far-off horizon, he will be able to reach that place in an instant by using the Major Shadow Jump Magic Scroll.
"Another end game item in the bag," Vincent said in joy, comparing this situation to the likes of action RPG games, where the hero usually gets such items at the end, but he got them at the very start.
Ding, Dong!
Just as he finished creating it, he received a message from his girlfriend and instructor Theodore at the same time.
