{Congratulations to the host; You have created a new skill. Please, give your new skill a name}.The cool breeze of the night was a complete contrast to what Rhys felt on the inside.'Hot... It feels so hot!'The currents of mana flowing within him generated so much heat, his very sweat was evaporating off his body.The ocean blue aura was his mana flowing out of his body at high speeds. It covered him like a flame and extended out from the soles of his feet to the tip of his hair.Rhys could feel the heat travel from his heart to his lungs, his head, his feet... Every single part of his body felt like it was on fire, and not the good kind.He looked at his hands and realized that the hairs on his hands were being singed by his intense internal temperature. He was scared that if he didn't let this heat out, it would completely devour him.So, that's what he did...Rhys let it all out..."Azure Burst... I'll name it Azure Burst!"{Congratulations to the host for creating the skills, Azu

{Congratulations to the host... You have received the opportunity to create a [Body and Soul] contract}.{Beast Contract}: Form a [body and soul] contract with a mutant beast. This contract allows the target mutant beast and the host to forge a bond that is governed by the following set of rules;{Condition 1}: The beast's and human's involvement in the [body and soul] contract shall be bound by the laws of magic as long as both parties may live.{Condition 2}: This contract can be initiated by either one of the parties involved, but can only be concluded if and only if the other party fully agrees upon the conditions involved wholeheartedly.{Condition 3}: The agreement is built upon the law of equivalent exchange. A trade deemed to be of equal proportions by the system must be made for the contract to be enabled.{Condition 4}: This contract is based upon the universal laws of mana, and cannot be broken.{Does the host agree to all these conditions?}Rhys wasn't surprised to see thes

"I wish to proceed."{Processing Request...}{....}{Request Granted}.{Select: Affirmative}.{Please Standby for exchange}.{....}{Host has acquired the ability to create a mana shard... The production process begins...}{....}Rhys could feel his organs being moved around, as the feeling of being burnt alive quickly overwhelmed him."ARGHHHH!"He felt as though his blood was boiling his organs, turning them into stewed meat, while his bones served as the ladles for stirring it up. His joints rattled in their sockets, as his already weary body began to feel even more exhausted.But he couldn't even breathe because of the damned pain...The pain refused to go away. It was slowly eating him up from the inside, threatening to consume whatever life he had within his body.He felt the most pain in his chest, right beside his heart. He could feel the majority of the blood in his body flowing toward that section of his chest. It was a strange feeling, being able to know what was happening w

SWOOSH!PA! PA! PA!The giant figure of Teddy could be seen dashing through the shrubbery. The lightless night served to emphasize his peculiar glow as he traveled like a bolt of crimson lightning...Beside him, Rhys ran at his cruising speed, hoping to make it back quickly. He had recovered his health with some potions, as well as his stamina with the blood of a few mutant beasts using his {Blood Ingestion Regeneration} skill.{Blood Ingestion Regeneration} (passive): Grants the ability to safely ingest the blood of mutant beasts without any adverse effects. Consuming the blood and flesh of mutant beasts grants passive Stamina, Vitality, and Mana regeneration. For every 0.1 liters of blood, or 100 grams of flesh consumed, 100HP, 50MP, and 1 stamina point are regenerated.Well, more than a few...The average mutant beast Rhys had encountered contained at most 5 liters of blood, but a lot of that was stored within the flesh of the beast. He didn't have the time or energy to cook the mea

"You chose Myles, and I choose Cade. Whoever loses will give half of all the mana shards they obtain for a whole month to the winner. Deal?" Bryan said, greed overwhelming his features."Hehehe... Sure why not? You've got yourself a deal!" Seth agreed without hesitation.The two shook hands on it and continued watching the fight between Myles and Cade."By the way, why do you think Myles will win?" Bryan asked curiously."Hm? What are you talking about?" Seth said, a perplexed expression appearing on his face."Well, you surely must think he will win, right? If you don't think so, there is no way you would make such a deal with me, right?" Bryan asked, his expression turning a bit confused..."Hehehe... I don't think he'll lose." Seth said, his perplexed expression disappearing, instantly replaced with his signature shit-eating grin."Oh? Care to explain?" Bryan said, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips."A wise man once said, A closed mouth doesn't smell,"Seth said, his eyes s
