Kapitel 10: Blood Manipulation

"This boy..."

Miss Jade could be seen floating in the air way above the forest.She stared down at a particularly location and this location was exactly where the fight between Arthur and the rank 1 black bear was taking place.

When the black bear had launched the whitish aura claw at Arthur she couldn't stop her body from moving towards him to save him.She however controlled her emotions and halted when she could sense the faint life signal of him.

"I knew you wouldn't just die".She inwardly said with a faint smile plastered on her face.

Way beneath Miss Jade was a furious Arthur who was almost on the blink of death.

Standing Infront of him was the powerful rank 1 black bear who had dealt a fatal blow to him."I will not die here...no, I will surpass my limits and prove to this system,this world and everyone that I'm not weak"

Arthur could feel a slight boost in power as he stood there.He had broken through to the 2nd stage of the origin rank and had received a boost in power although it wasn't that much.

His pupil had rolled to the back of his eyes and his black messy hair had slightly spiked up with a faint crimson aura exuding from his body.Now that blood was on the ground Arthur was at an advantage.

[Blood Manipulation activated]

He stretched his one hand towards the beast and 3 blood spears were formed and aimed at it.The blood spears had been solidified to the extent one couldn't tell whether it was blood or an actual weapon.

SWUSH!!!

The 3 blood spears dashed at an incredible speed towards the black bear.The black bear raised his claws to counter it but to his surprise it's paw had been pierced.The other two also pierced through it's chest area.

"Blood...his ability is quite powerful,I really picked the right student"Miss Jade who was hovering is the air voiced out to herself

It screamed out in pain and released it's aura once more.This time around Arthur was not pushed back.

[Dash activated]

Right now the cooldown for until his dash skill became inactive was 6 seconds.His direction however wasn't aimed at the black bear but was aimed at where the golden dagger laid.

He grabbed it right and with his dash skill still active run towards the beast.Even the beast was surprised at how the human had displayed such speed after it recovered from the unbearable pain.

[Blood Manipulation activated]

As the black bear was about to leap towards Arthur one of its hind limbs had exploded causing it to lose its balance and fall to the ground.Due to it's massive size it's down fall had formed a small crater beneath it's body.

"He's bending blood to his will,that attack just now he caused it.He controlled the blood to explode from inside out which is really impressive".From spectating the match Miss Jade was able to deduce the ability of Arthur which was Blood Manipulation.

"To think his trash ability would turn out to be a manipulation type ability"She smiled as he watched the fight go on.

"I thought it wouldn't work".Even Arthur was surprised to have been able to make its hind limbs explode.Was it due to him reaching the 2nd stage of the origin rank,this was his thought process.

Nevertheless he had to finish up with the beast.His movement was quick as he slashed off it's front limbs off.Every swing he delivered to the black bears body using the golden dagger was precise and beautifully displayed.

Even Miss Jade was astounded."He really managed to use it even though it's sharp point is chipped off".Arthur held the golden dagger in it's right hand as he stood atop the head of the rank 1 black bear beast.

The black bear at this point couldn't fight back.It tried releasing it's aura but it's energy had dropped to zero after the stunt the human pulled on it.Its fore limbs had been sliced off along with many wounds.

[Blood Manipulation]

Using his blood manipulation he created a powerful blood katana and sliced it's head off.

[Quest completed]

He ignored the message and got down walking towards the head of the beast.He pierced it with his blood katana and opened up it's skull and there it was.A red coloured glowing core laid there,it's magnificent aura was what kept Arthur smiling.

This was a beast core.Every beast poccessed one just like how humans poccessed an ability core.Beast cores were very precious and powerful.

They could be used to create high ranked weapons or low ranked ones in his case if he wanted to use this core.This was a rank 1 core meaning it could be used to create a rank 1 weapon.

Beasts cores could also be sold off for profits as well.In all beast cores were very important.

It was even one of the factors that helped humans stand their own ground against the invaders ages ago.

[Does host wish to absorb the rank 1 beast core]

[Yes/No]

"What!!"

To say Arthur was stunned would be an understatement.He was beyond stunned at what he was seeing.There were never records of humans being able to absorb beast cores and Arthur didn't know what to do.Throughout his life he had never come across something like being able to absorb beast core.

The discovery surprised him to the core.Since he didn't want to cause any suspicions he decided to not absorb it.He stared at the red crystal like ball in his hand and heaved a sigh of relieve.

He was glad he had made it alive even though the odds of him winning were really slim."Congrats of defeating your first ever beast".He heard Miss Jade's voice and raised his head up.

There he could see the most beautiful woman he had ever seen coming towards him with her hips swaying from left to right with each step.Her beautiful silver coloured hair dancing in the air.

"Miss...Jade...you...monster heh"

Arthur soon found his eyes slowly closing.His consciousness also fading away,all his energy was drained from that fight.Miss Jade caught him from falling and placed him on her back.

ZING!!

The huge body of the black bear disappeared and only Miss Jade stood there alone with Arthur place on her back."You really did well agaisnt this beast.Its more shocking considering it was almost about to breakthrough to the prime rank"

The black bear was in the process of breakingthrough when a human had entered it's territory.It being a prideful male bear decided to kill the human it thought was inferior to it.

What it didn't expect was to be killed by the human who at that time was just a 1st stage origin ranked awakened.To it,it shouldn't have been possible since it was about to breakthrough to the prime rank which meant it wws quite powerful.

"Alright time to head back now and congrats on your first beast core".With that Miss Jade vanished.
