Magic Art Training (2) 

"Fuck it!" Vivian cursed.

She got up and began checking the entire room. She already checked everything earlier, but just wanted to make sure.

First she checked the windows: She made sure they were closed and then covering them with the thick and dark-red curtains.

Second was the door: She made sure it was locked and placed a blanket under the door.

And lastly, were the walls and floors: She made sure there were no holes or trap doors.

Once she was done, she returned to her spot.

Okay… 

This is it…

If I get caught…

Then there's nothing I can do but run like hell… 

Wait…!

She got up and put on her gear and sword just in case she had to escape.

She returned to her spot.

"Okay…"

"It's now or never…"

She activated a spell.

[Greater Origin Enchant].

A dark-red lightning aura appeared on her right hand.

She looked around if she triggered any alarm or if anyone was rushing to her location.

Five minutes later…

She turned her head and looked at the dark-red lightning aura wrapped around her hand.

Okay, time for Phase Two...

She cast another spell.

[Halo].

As soon as her [Halo] skill started to manifest on her back, the dark-red lightning immediately began to start crawling from her hand to her arm, to her shoulder and then finally to the golden ring on her back.

After the golden ring absorbed all of the lightning, it grew to 4 times bigger that it looked like there was a giant golden portal behind Vivian, illuminating the entire room.

Damn this bright…!

She waited another 5 minutes -- part to recover mana, another part to see if she alerted an alarm and enemies were heading here.

Five minutes later…

I think I'm safe…?

She glanced at the Soul Finger Claw on her finger and activated a spell.

[Soul Enchant - Rune].

A white water-like aura appeared on the Soul Finger Claw's long metallic claw. 

Ooo…

She pressed it against her thigh which was covered by her black pants and she felt the same sensation she felt earlier.

The ring was draining her mana but at the same was replenishing.

She deactivated [Soul Enchant - Rune] and reactivated it once again.

She repeated the same process.

Ooo…

Seventeen shots later…

She deactivated [Soul Enchant - Rune].

Okay… 

After this, it will be 20 shots…

If this doesn't work, then there can only mean two things…

Either that Grace lied to me…

Or using Elemental Weapons requires more shots…

She activated [Soul Enchant - Rune].

Ooo…

She pressed it on her thigh.

Ding!

'Unlocked Soul Mastery - Level 1 and Claw Mastery - Level 1!'

Vivian's lips curled up into a smile and she quickly deactivated [Soul Enchant - Rune].

Crack.

Tak, tak…!

Right after she deactivated the Soul Finger Claw's active spell [Soul Enchant - Rune], it cracked into 2 pieces and fell to the floor.

Vivian ignored it and activated a spell.

[Soul Strike].

A white water-like aura appeared on her right hand.

She touched her chest and felt almost the same sensation.

"Hehehe…"

"I see…"

"Now I understand what that guy at the Blacksmith shop said…"

The male clerk, Sike, told Vivian that excluding Chaos, the Soul Affinity was considered to be the rarest Affinity was was highly valued by fighters.

The new skill, [Soul Strike], she learned from her opening [Soul Mastery] costs 20 mana points to cast, it costs 0 mana points to keep it active, and it absorbs 1 mana point per second.

Compared to the [Soul Enchant - Rune], it costs 30 mana points to activate, 2 mana points per second to keep it active, and it absorbs 1 mana point per second.

What if I boost [Soul Strike] with [Greater Origin Enchant]…?

 

Will it absorb 4 mana points per second…?

Vivian was curious and wanted to try it. However, after remembering what Criselle told her about the one Magic Art to two Physical Arts ratio, she hesitated.

At the moment, her Strength was 11 (+105), Vitality was 9 (+86), Agility was 12 (+96) and Intelligence was 8 (+94).

Although she doesn't know how much Intelligence she must have more than her Strength and Vitality in order to cause a nerve inside her brain to pop which would immediately kill her, she had no interest or whatsoever in trying it.

After all, she wasn't working this hard just to die.

She got up and grabbed the other rings -- Dark, Earth and Ice Finger Claws.

She then returned to her spot and put on the Dark Finger Claw.

She activated its active spell.

[Dark Enchant - Rune].

A dark and sinister aura appeared on the long metallic claw of her Dark Finger Claw.

***

Some time later…

She activated [Ice Enchant - Rune].

A misty icy aura appeared on the long metallic claw of her Ice Finger Claw.

Crack, crack, crack…

The misty icy aura made a freezing sound once she pressed the long metallic claw against her thigh.

Ding!

'Unlocked Ice Mastery - Level 1!'

Vivian let out a sigh of relief and she deactivated [Ice Enchant - Rune].

Crack.

Tak, tak…!

Just like the other rings, once she reached 20 shots and right after she deactivated active skill, it cracked into 2 pieces and fell to the floor.

And just like the previous rings, Vivian ignored it.

After all, the only reason why she bought those Elemental Weapons was because she wanted to open new Magic Art Masteries.

Hmm…

[Claw Mastery], huh…

So I can still learn Physical Arts but self-harm…?

Or was it because it came with the active skill of each Elemental Weapon…?

But if that's the case, then why are people training at the Training Grounds…?

They can't just be there to mingle, right…?

Vivian recalled her gym days where 90% of people spend most of their time there socializing rather than actually focusing on the workout.

In her case, given that she was a busy person, her workouts only lasts 30-40 minutes per session. Yes, it was short, but it was intense and she would wear headphones so that no one would bother her.

She would also only work out in the non-peak hours.

Anyhow…

Assuming that I can learn Physical Arts by self-harm, I might as well multitask it…

However, I don't want to bleed that much…

Not to mention my blood is blue…

She began scrolling up and down on her Status Panel, trying to see what skills she wanted to increase.

I want to increase --

Wait…!

This is stupid…

This would never work…

Let's say I decide to level up my [Knife], [Whip] or [Sword Mastery]…

Assuming that I want to multitask by adding [Greater Origin Enchant], those weapons won't even last…

My Magic Force will only destroy them…

And even if I decide to level up my [Fist] and [Leg Mastery] and I added [Greater Origin Enchant], what if I end up blowing up my limbs…?

It's not like I have [Greater Heal] to repair lost limbs…

There's also [Savage Mastery]…

But how…?

How do I use that with [Greater Origin Enchant]…?

Wait…!

What if like this…?

I cut myself with my sword and then heal myself with [Heal] that is buffed with [Greater Origin Enchant]…

Yeah, yeah…

That's going to work…

She got up and then stopped.

Why don't I train my [Dagger Mastery] instead…?

I already have it and it has a x6.2 boost with the Mastery… 

And although the Body Art is only x5, I haven't yet gotten the +4 to Strength and Agility from unlocking Level 4…

Yeah…

She grabbed her kitchen knife and also grabbed her worn-out green pants that she stopped wearing ever since she bought 2 black plants.

When she got back to her spot on the floor, she placed the worn-out green pants on her lap and also removed her left glove.

"Never in a million years I thought I'd be doing such a thing…"

Sliii...

She sliced her left palm and something unexpected happened.

"Huh?"

The kitchen knife couldn't penetrate her skin. It only left a blue mark before disappearing.

She pressed a finger on the knife's blade to feel its sharpness.

"It feels sharp…"

Sliii…

She tried slicing one of her fingertips.

The knife still didn't manage to cut her skin.

Should I just stab my hand…?

She shook her head.

It will only be messy…

As much as possible, I don't want any of my blue blood to spill on the floor…

Sliii...

She tried to slice her palm again but it still didn't manage to cut her.

I'll try using more force…

Seriously, I'm afraid I might chop off my hand…

Slii--cling!

Thud.

When she tried slicing her hand once again and used a bit more force, the knife gave up mid-way and snapped into two.

And of course, it still didn't manage to cut her skin, only leaving a blue mark before disappearing.

Vivian closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before opening her eyes once again.

She got up and unsheathed her sword.

"Okay, sword."

She sat back down.

Sliii…

A thin blue line appeared on her left palm and then blue blood came dripping out of the wound.

[Greater Origin Enchant].

Dark red lightning appeared on her left hand.

[Heal].

The moment the skill [Heal] started to manifest on her left hand, it started to immediately absorb the dark-red lighting and a faint yellow light that shone x4 brighter compared to the normal heal enveloped Vivian's body, healing the wound on her left palm.

I'll just have to keep doing this…

Sliii…
