Book 2: Chapter 10.2: Skills Test Part II

Scarlet Asger

The moment I activate the skill, I feel a faint stabbing pain spread throughout all of my body before blood literally drains from every single pore I have and flies to the ground next to me, building a faint copy of me, albeit covered in shadows and made up of blood so you cant see any of my bodys features clearly.

I barely manage to keep on my feet as the stabbing pain slowly fades, leaving me feeling weakened quite a bit from blood loss.

Looks like that skill took a lot more of your blood than we both expected, Tar mutters, and I cant help but nod rather weakly.

After a few seconds of wobbling, I decide to just sit down for the moment as I watch the shadow clone, who is simply staring at me without moving an inch. And somehow I get the instinctive feeling that I can order it to do stuff with my mind and itll just somehow understand exactly what I want it to do.

So I do just that, and the thing immediately reaches for the remaining blood spear I have that had fallen to the ground after I activated blood clone. It then starts to spin it around rather clumsily, obviously showing that its using my skills to do so seeing as I have no skill with a spear. Never even touched one before. But then it eventually moves over to the machine and stabs the spear of blood straight at it, making the spear dissipate just like the sword did.

Then my eyes are drawn to the number that appears, pleasantly surprising me in the process.

[2003 arc]

Ooh, thats pretty good! Better than the blood weapon alone, but still worse than my own strength by a large chunk.

Now then. I close my eyes and focus on the blood shadow for a few seconds, trying to see if I can use its senses or something like Michael can his summons, but nothing ever happens, leaving me disappointed.

I open my eyes again.

Well, it was worth a shot, I guess.

I wouldnt be surprised if you get that ability in a later level of the skill, Tar says, and I cant help but nod at that.

Huh. So the Blood Shadow skill really did take my shadow.

Hows that even possible? Is a shadow really something that can just be taken?

Its magic, Tar says as if that solves every question in the world.

And I guess it does?

I test a few things with the two skills, such as if I can use my own blood or other types of blood such as the blood in the blood shadow in the creation of blood manifestation which I cant yet apparently and if I can use the blood in the blood manifestation for other things as well. Then I test using the blood manifestation myself, and while they are stronger when held by me than my regular punch, I also try punching the device with my arm shifted without using blood claws and find a rather startling result.

[3815 arc]

And when I do it again after activating blood claws on that hand, I find an even more startling result, one that is higher than grabbing a blood weapon and using it myself.

[4001 arc]

Very nice results overall.

Although it does delegate the blood manifestation to a pure ranged focused skill. Or one for my blood shadow to use.

Anyways, I unsummon my blood shadow, making an incredibly uncomfortable sensation run through me as the blood begins reentering me through my pores. But then a sizable chunk is left behind nearly half of what was making the blood shadow so I just store it in my blood storage, seeing as its likely the excess blood that was already regenerated in the time I was using blood shadow.

I adjust my magi-tech jacket and shirt that had been a tad displaced by the blood before turning around, using the clean skill, and leaving the training room.

Time to head to bed.
