บท 108: Evolution of Device

As the burning feeling was felt on his entire body, Tsukasa said, "Sakuya, step back."

While Sakuya couldn't react, Mikuni quickly reacted and protected her by distancing themselves from Tsukasa.

As they distanced themselves from him, Tsukasa didn't hold the energy that entered his body and released all of them instantly, causing a flame that surrounded his entire body.

Not only his body but his soul was also burnt by this flame.

A symbol suddenly appeared on his chest, and his consciousness was about to disappear since this hellish flame was about to burn him into ash.

Just kidding.

Tsukasa quickly controlled all the flames that surrounded him, and he could feel the change on his entire body.

His physical ability had broken the human boundary, and his magic also had increased.

If his magic was F-Rank before, his current magic should be around D-Rank now.

His magic had increased twice to the amount of magic of a normal Blazer.

His broken right arm was quickly healed, and all the wounds and injuries and his lost flesh also recovered in the speed that could be seen with eyes.

While it was painful since his entire body and soul were burnt with a hellish flame, Tsukasa also felt happy since he could feel that he had become stronger!

'It's just liquid. Can it make me this strong?'

Tsukasa wondered whether he could inject his body with another liquid, but let's worry about that matter later since he needed to focus on the process to gain a new power since he knew that it hadn't ended.

While Tsukasa wasn't sure what kind of liquid that Sakuya gave was or what kind of ritual that happened on his body right now, he decided to ignore them and focus on this ritual so he could strengthen his Device.

Yes!

Tsukasa could tell that this liquid could strengthen his Device, which made him so happy!

While Tsukasa was set ablaze by the flame, Sakuya and Mikuni kept watching him from a distance, and somehow they could see his smile that made them in a daze. While he didn't say anything, they somehow understood why he was happy, and they knew that they didn't need to worry about him.

However, they were quite curious at what kind of shape his Blaze would turn into.

Tsukasa didn't know what kind Sakuya and Mikuni were thinking at that moment, but he somehow understood what they meant by Blaze before.

'So this is a Blaze.'

The flame that burnt his body and soul burnt his old self and caused him to be born into his new self.

Tsukasa knew that he had transcended from a human into a Blaze.

It might have been an unfamiliar term to him before. After all, Tsukasa didn't know anything, and suddenly he was asked whether he wanted to gain more power by injecting the strange liquid into his body.

If Tsukasa didn't have a regenerative healing factor, he might hesitate, but he had one, and he didn't feel scared of poison no matter how dangerous it was.

Also, Tsukasa could use his Noble Art to check the liquid's composition and tell whether it was dangerous or not.

After Tsukasa confirmed that it wasn't dangerous, he didn't hesitate to use it and enhanced its efficiency with his ability.

It was also the reason why the process was so smooth, and all the flames around him disappeared before he summoned his Device.

Similar to a Blazer, a Blaze was able to summon the manifestation of his soul into something.

In his case, it was a familiar cube that he was born with.

However, unlike his metallic futuristic black cube in the past, there were several marks with a deep red color on his cube. Its red color was similar to the color of blood that glowed gently like a flame on the candle. It was menacing, yet also attractive, giving an alluring feeling.

"Irregular!" 2x

Tsukasa could hear the voice of Sakuya and Mikuni, but he ignored them and tried to see the change on his Device.

As usual, Tsukasa tried the transformation ability of his Device and transformed it into the shape of katana.

Tsukasa swung his sword several times, stabbing, cutting, and even trying to use iaido before changing it into a spear, kusarigama, kunai, tonfa, kanabo, and many other types of close-combat weapons.

While Mikuni felt dizzy at Tsukasa's proficiency at various types of weapons, Sakuya was interested in the transformation ability of Tsukasa's Blaze.

"Kugayama Tsukasa, your Blaze can change your Blaze into a different type of close combat weapon, right?"

"Call me Tsukasa, Sakuya. Also, I can transform it into a long-range weapon too." Tsukasa changed his Device into a bow and a crossbow. He didn't try to power those long-range weapons. Instead, he was more excited about another change brought about after becoming a Blaze.

Suddenly the crossbow on his hand changed into the shape that startled Sakuya and Mikuni.

Tsukasa held the gun in his hand and couldn't help but cry.

While he didn't cry, he was moved since he knew that his Device had become better!

While his Device was powerful, it had a limitation, and it couldn't change into the shape of a firearm or other type machine types of weapon or things.

However, it had changed since Tsukasa could change into various shapes of a firearm, whether it was a Desert Eagle, AK-47, Glock, Musket Model 1777, Shpagin PPSh-41, Browning M2, Barrett M82, gun turret, and various others.

While Tsukasa might not have been able to transform his Device into various shapes before he became Blaze, he had touched many types of weapons in his 15 years of life and also bought of them in the past. After all, his ability could strengthen the efficiency of any weapons that he touched. Even a normal firearm that wouldn't work on a Blazer would become a dangerous weapon in his hand.

Tsukasa also had a patient general of JSDF, and he was given a chance to visit the headquarters of JSDF in the past, so he had touched those various weapons, and by using his ability, he could tell their components, mechanism, and how it was created.

Tsukasa also learned a lot in his 15 years, including information about weapons and advanced technology in his world. If he wanted to, it might be possible to create a nuclear bomb, but with the amount of magic that he had right now, it wasn't enough.

"....."

While Tsukasa checked the evolution of his ability, Sakuya and Mikuni could only watch this scene in a daze since his Blaze was too amazing, and it was their first time to see someone was able to do this.

After Tsukasa confirmed that he could change his Device into various types of weapons, he tried to transform it into a motorcycle.

"..." Sakuya and Mikuni.

Tsukasa rode on his motorcycle and tried various stuns that he watched randomly on the television in the past.

While Tsukasa wasn't sure how fast the maximum speed of his motorcycle was, he knew that it might be possible to reach a supersonic speed.

However, the consumption of his magic would definitely be massive if he did that.

Riding his motorcycle, Tsukasa stopped next to Sakuya as he transformed his Device again into retro fashionable polarized UV eyeglasses. "What do you think?"

"Handsome," Sakuya said truthfully.

"Thanks." Tsukasa smiled.

"....." Mikuni.

Sakuya also smiled, showing how happy she was, and asked, "Tsukasa, can you transform your Blaze into a car?"

Tsukasa looked at Sakuya for a moment, then their surroundings again.

While there was a car, it was the car of the group of people that tried to kidnap Sakuya.

Tsukasa then looked at Sakuya and Mikuni while wondering how they could appear in this place without a vehicle.

"....A car?"

Tsukasa thought for a moment and decided to transform his Device into his favorite car.
