Capítulo 74: We are here
I had to haggle a few times, and bargain to allow things, like expansion of my Hammerspace to keep those giant Plummer ships, or allow me to use magic to shrink these spaceships, without frying the electronics and sensitive equipment on board.
He agreed to allow me to store things using magic, but refused to allow me more space. I also asked to be allowed to keep Ascalon, and he had refused to allow me a planet destroying sword. He said, it will be left behind when I leave that world and that, if I wanted a good fucking sword, I should have chosen an appropriate world for it.
When the exact details were pinned, the I's dotted and T's crossed, I confirmed I left no ambiguity with my wishes. As a grown man, I had learnt the bloody lesson of what happens when you do not care about the trivial details, as they come back to haunt you for the rest of your life.
I thought of the possibilities, and scenario that I could think of, and when I was ready, I took a deep breath, thanked ROB for his patience and hospitality, and closed my eyes.
And like that in a snap! Instead of the calming Jazz spinning in ROB's office, I could hear the silence of nature disturbed by the chirping birds, the rustling leaves, the babbling brooks and bustling trees as I could smell the fresh fragrance of pine and morning dew.
Looking up at the clear skies, I noticed it was about an hour or so after sunrise, about April or May in the Northern Hemisphere.
I could feel a stiffness in my neck from the awkward position the little Ben must have slept in, as the crinkle in my neck, and the general weakness of a weak body was slowly going away, as my magic courses through my veins, through my blood and through my bones, before seeping in my sinew, my muscles and finally beneath my skin, as it enriched and empowered me.
I could feel like a key was slotted in place, and turned right, as I felt my magic double and quadruple, as it instead of following a certain circulatory path, it simply radiated outwards, wanting to be unleashed.
I knew these events are simply explosive, and sometimes damaging to the body, so I sat down on the hard ground, which was still a little cold and wet.
I ignored the tingly and itchy feeling all over my body, as I took calming breaths, as my magic and mana was merging and uniting, while my body was simply drenched in this overflowing waves and rumbles of energy that coiled around my body, and simply irradiated my entire being with it.
I could see my magic being just contained under my skin, as I looked like Ben Tennyson now, but I could take my adult form, just as easily, as I could change into my Adult Creature Forms. I could also, as part of the boons, partially transform into one of the creatures, or more.
I could gain a Basilisk's eyes, while gaining the Demiguise's fur and vanishing from sight. Or I could change into Thunderbird, and cover my body in Graphorn's Superior Magically resistant hide. Or I come simply remain human, and gain draconic wings or breath fire.
I was now too versatile and capable with my powers, along with the multitude of powers each alien will bring to the table. But I knew, as a Wizard with a Assassin build, I was in "gamer-speak" a high DPS character with low Defense and Tanking abilities.
That meant, to keep myself safe, I chose to transform my torso into Graphorn hide, upto my arms under the sleeves. The same for the rest of my covered body.
I was now practising instantly transforming my eyes into Thunderbirds or dragons and changing back and forth. I needed to find the limits of my abilities, but since it was magic, I could sense, I had more magic than I had any use for. And it kept replenishing faster than I would spend it.
To put it in perspective, the day I left Harry Potter world, my mere breathing generated Dumbledore level magic, and it was so dense and concentrated in me, that it was palpable around me, making me glow with a silver sheen around my body.
If I wore any clothes, apart from the Hitman suit, which I used as a tribal costume (since a suit wearing sage was out of character), my clothes would spontaneously combust coming into contact with me.
Wizards who touched me for long felt magical burns on their body, if they didn't consciously channel all my magic away. Made it quite difficult to get laid, when the outsiders you bought to seed your tribe with new blood, started having difficulty even being near me.
And now, all that concentrated magic reserve has been singularly compressed and quadrupled while being stuffed into a smaller body, and weaker physique, which is slowly changing as my Anodite DNA is costing through my veins, repairing the damage and preventing the feeling of being bloated from too much magic.
Slowly, my body is feeling looser, like the dissonance in being this body is being reduced, and like a radio tuning to the right frequency, my body is correcting itself, to accommodate me.
I heard my cousin call out for me, but I need to wait for a while, because I could see a small glow around my eyes and head, due to concentrated magic and energy there. I would need a minute or two, and don't need Gwen to come and disturb me at this critical juncture.
"Coming Gwen! I am taking a dump!" I know kids this age, are gross and uncouth, while girls get snobby and bratty while ignoring the disgusting pigs that boys are at that age. If I said anything else, she would have come looking for me, but with that, I am safe for a while.
"YEEEEWW! I didn't need to know that. Grandpa was calling for breakfast, but I'll tell him you are not hungry." She screamed at the top of her voice.
That bitch! She dare come between a man and his bacon! I will make sure, she suffers for her heinous crime! "If you do that, I'll come and put the worms I found on the ground in your pants. And they were near a turd!"
Her disgust and curses were harmonious to my ears, as I went to my family, while smelling the delicious bacon and the greasy smell floating in the air. I had ensured to check, whether any apparent change was visible, as I conjured a giant mirror to check myself, while removing the Disillusionment charm I had cast at the start around me, in case someone is watching. Time to fall under the disguise. I am Ben Tennyson now!
