Blood Assimilation

Chapter 306 - 306 Transfiguration



“You think you can take us both on by yourself? Keep dreaming!”

The blonde casino girl sneered as her aura skyrocketed, empowering her blade hand. Peering into the distance, she was poised to strike him with her now oversized, sharp blade hand. At the same time, her body glowed in highly toxic light that permeated and contaminated the surrounding air.

Incarnation Randy witnessed her change, grinned, and then declared: “I already have! Playtime is over!”

With an alarmingly swift movement, he faded away from the line of attack and then he appeared in front of the blonde casino girl. Before she could sense his presence, he waved his hand that carried a tremendous force, which scattered the toxic aura around her body. He then delivered a powerful uppercut with his fist that sent her flying a few meters into the air before crashing to the ground.

[Void Rippling Punch]

The blow was so powerful that she was knocked out cold before crashing to the ground. Incarnation Randy stood over her unconscious body briefly observing her.

“I told you that you were out of your league, but you refused to believe me.”

Incarnation Randy turned away from her, and then looked at the black-haired casino girl, who was still conscious and standing in the distance with a devilish smile on his face.

.....

The black-haired casino girl, who appeared to be younger than the blonde casino girl backed away, fear visible in her eyes. When Incarnation Randy attacked the blonde casino girl, she couldn’t see his movement. Furthermore, his appearance and presence had changed drastically compared to before, making him more terrifying to look at.

“Please… spare me.”

She quivered as she mumbled inaudibly, but Incarnation Randy still heard her plea a distance away from her.

However, he slowly approached her in long strides as he shook his head, and said: “You chose the wrong profession. You should’ve picked something you’re decent at instead of killing innocent people for a living.”

Once he stood in front of her trembling body, he chided: “One more thing. You girls should learn some manners regarding fighting.”

Having said that, he delivered the final blow to the defenseless black-haired casino girl in her stomach, sending her body toppling to the ground, unconscious.

Incarnation Randy looked down at the scattered debris all around him and the unconscious bodies of the two casino girls with a contemplative look.

At this moment, his curry blonde hair was adorned with vibrant purple hair at the end of every strand of his hair, and his current grayish-purple eyes glowed brilliantly in the dark alley, looking quite unfathomably terrifying and eerie from an onlooker’s perspective.

“I suggest you both get back to your boss and tell him to send someone stronger next time. Not that you can hear me, anyway. You’re lucky that we’re in the middle of the city. That being the case, I won’t kill you two. In case someone is watching my actions right now, I don’t want to give them an edge by having your blood on my hands.”

He said with a smirk, before turning and hurriedly walking away from the scene in case they had reinforcement stationed somewhere. He had already learned enough about his latest body’s combat prowess from today’s battle.

Additionally, there was an unexpected power and effect that he didn’t know existed before. When the blonde casino girl aimed at his eyes, he viscerally gained access to that power. Afterward, he tried to transition into a distinct state using that power and he was surprised by how powerful its effect was on his overall combat effectiveness.

The effects were quite similar to entering an assimilated state, but they were also different. If anything, he could say that it was akin to activating his [Ancestral Bloodline], and yet there was something different about its activation.

Unlike his crimson-haired and amber golden-eyed [Ancestral Form], he didn’t need the activation of the [Ancestral Regression] skill to enter the newly discovered state. That was because it felt more natural as if it was part of his body’s natural functions.

That discovery left him puzzled, and at the same time, it piqued his interest as it may be a positive aftereffect caused by being defective. This aftereffect might also be a beneficial one rather than a harmful side effect. Therefore, he wished to study it further before engaging in another fight with someone in the future.

As he walked away, his appearance returned to normal. His black coat fluttered in the wind as his figure slowly disappeared.

A few minutes later.

Three figures in black appeared in the dark alley. When they arrived, the first thing they did was carefully inspect the bodies of the two unconscious casino girls lying on the ground and covered in bruises all over.

After discovering that the two girls were still breathing and alive, two of the figures in black picked up the unconscious bodies of the girls, and then they quickly disappeared from the scene.

The remaining one, which appeared to be an obscured man, stood there as he committed to memory the aftermath of the battle, and then muttered: “Just who was that young man? I thought the boss said he was a newbie, Dungeon Hunter. Clearly, he was mistaken. Contrary to our expectations, the fight ended quickly before we could even intervene. Also, by the looks of it, it was a one-sided battle. Had that young man intended to kill them, he would’ve been able to do so easily. However, strangely, he spared their lives. What was the intention behind sparing them?”

After viewing the battle scene briefly with a pondering expression, he also left the dark alley swiftly, his figure disappearing into the shrouds of the night. The commotion caused by the battle between Incarnation Randy and the two casino girls might have attracted the attention of the city patrol squad. In the event that they find him on the site where the battle took place, they would undoubtedly arrest him for vandalism and for causing chaos in the middle of the city.

If he were lucky he would only receive a fine for damaged properties and a light sentence in Imperial Prison. On the other hand, if he were unlucky, they could make an example of him by putting him through arduous labor for decades.

In some cases, these labors may involve serving on the front lines of the army, which has been regarded as extremely risky and demanding. It would be a miracle to die peacefully. Because if you get caught by demons, they will feast on your body.

No one would deliberately allow themselves to go through any harsh condition that might be worse than death.

Inside a luxurious Inn.

Incarnation Randy was currently taking a warm and comfortable bath inside his room. While he did that, he recollected the changes he underwent as he fought the two casino girls.

The experience was overwhelming and empowering. However, he also noticed that he felt fatigued shortly after undoing his transformation. He decided to call the distinct state he acquired after transformation [Transfiguration].

That was because he felt like his whole body and soul had undergone a baptism and awakened their true potential for a short period of time. He tried to activate the [Transfiguration] state when he rented an inn and had some privacy.

However, he couldn’t enter that state again. His only conclusion was that perhaps he was too tired to enter that state again. He pondered what the criteria were for activation other than a near-death or close-call experience.

He couldn’t think of anything at the moment. As such, he decided to focus on increasing his mastery level with the [Body Strengthen] skill. Since, at the time, his body was under the effect of the skill before he gained access to the [Transfiguration] state.

Three days later.

Incarnation Randy woke up from his comfortable bed and began his daily morning routine as usual. For the past three days, he had been staying at a luxurious inn on Residential Street called [The Raven’s Nest].

During the course of the three days, he had continued to attempt to initiate his innate talent, [Transfiguration], but he had failed in all of his attempts to initiate it. However, all of his attempts weren’t for nothing. He also made various discoveries that confirmed that the transformation process was indeed similar to an [Ancestral Form] acquisition.

Having repeatedly failed to initiate the innate talent, [Transfiguration], to achieve his previous body transformation, he decided to practice initiating it through the [Ancestral Regression] skill. This was in order to select an [Ancestral Bloodline]. The [Ancestral Regression] skill was one of the skills that had been carried over to his incarnate body.

Apart from the Ancestral Regression skill, his [Blood Space], which seemed to be synchronized with his main body, retained any blood assimilated state his main body had prior to his inception. In other words, aside from the [Ancestral Regression] skill, he also had the [Werewolf King of Wind] state, [Stealthy Python] state, [Chimera Monster] state, and the unregistered human blood of the Holy Knight Captain, which for some reason wasn’t listed on his system. The same thing applies to his main body’s version of the system.

Essentially, he had everything Randy had before he created him. The only problem was that they all required divine points to activate them, as he had no mana vessel to harness the power of magical energy.

Incarnation Randy concluded that he would have to create a mana vessel himself. However, according to his examination of his body during the past few days, it was impossible for him to do so. His meridians have been arranged improperly as a result of his imperfect inception.

With that being the case, even if he could create a mana vessel using the knowledge from the Ancient Black Tome, he wouldn’t be able to circulate it throughout his body. Furthermore, it appeared that his incarnated body didn’t have the same physique as his main body.

Therefore, as far as his findings could be interpreted, he could only use divine points without any drawbacks. The reason was that it didn’t require him to have a meridian or pathways available to living beings. He only needed to spend divine points and he could activate skills inside or outside of his body.
