"I got a lot of points now..." he said. "I should definitely check the shop and get a lot of stuff to get stronger too... But for now, these stones..."
He looked at the stones Koga Saburo had dropped.
[Otherworldly Mana Crystal (??? Grade)] x14
A crystallization of otherworldly Mana containing a random amount of Mana within their crystalized forms.
Can be used for a variety of purposes, from Alchemy, Magic Item Creation, and even absorbed to gain Magic Power and additional Mana.
"Wait, don't tell me...?"
Frank grabbed one of the crystals and then pressed his hand, absorbing its essence until it turned into blue dust.
FLUOSH!
"Huh?!"
He was able to absorb them, and his Mana Core progressed its growth. He also felt refreshed, and his Mana reserves definitely increased.
"It works!"
Without hesitation, Frank absorbed the rest of the crystals in a matter of seconds, feeling a surge of Otherworldly Mana flow into his Mana Core, the necessary energy for it to progress. And then, he felt its crystallization spread further and grow in size, giving him even more Magical Power and Mana.
At the same time, he felt like his Mana Core beginning to rapidly bond with his new Magic Circuits, further enhancing his efficiency when using Magic such as Tracing, Projection, and
other Spells.
Ding!
[You have absorbed a large quantity of Otherworldly Mana, increasing the growth and progress of your Mana Core Cultivation!]
[The Otherworldly Mana has successfully replaced the World's Source Energy (Terra) required
for your Mana Core growth.]
[Your [Mana Core Cultivation]: [Rank 1 (Initial Stage)] has Ranked Up to Rank 2, Middle
Stage.]
[Your Magical Stats have increased by +1.250]
[You learned the Passive Skill: [Magical Circuits: Level 1]
[Your body is now being rapidly covered with Magic Circuits, which will help you use Mana and Magic with more efficiency and less cost. Decreases Mana Cost for all Magic by 10% with each Level. And increases Mana permanently over time.]
"I'm done... Now this."
Frank felt better, looking at the two elixirs and then the book.
[Cursed Yamata-No-Orochi Venom Elixir (??? Grade)]
A strange, poisonous and dangerous elixir that was made using the venom and curse of Yamata-No-Orochi.
When consumed, if the user is incapable of assimilating cursed powers, it will turn them into
a monstrous snake or kill them.
Otherwise, it will grant the Yamata-No-Orochi's Blessing.
[Koga Saburo's Demonic Blood Elixir (??? Grade)]
A weird elixir crafted using the ancient and mythical Koga Saburo's blood and leftover spirit
energy.
When consumed, it can grant an enhancement to All Stats and share part of Koga Saburo's Strength with the consumer.
Careful, as his blood is like the deadliest of venoms, and not everyone can drink it without
dying.
[Koga Saburo's Skill Book (??? Grade)]
A Skill Book dropped from defeating Koga Saburo's Vengeful Mythical Spirit.
When opened, it can be used and then absorbed, giving the user one Random Skill from Koga
Saburo's repertoire.
"I see, a Blessing and also his blood..."
Frank swallowed saliva, he knew the risks that involved drinking these elixirs, they could
quite literally kill him.
However, if it worked, he could gain more of the strength he needed...
"I have to do it..."
He quickly opened the venom bottle, smelling a horrendous, sulfuric scent coming from it.
It almost made him gag and made him dizzy.
Before drinking it, he concentrated, reinforcing his entire body with Mana.
Then he chugged it down with a single drink.
"Guugg... Ugh... Glugh...!"
He was constantly resisting the sensation of wanting to vomit, as he drank it all.
Then, without stopping, as the venomous elixir began rapidly destroying his body, he drank
Koga Saburo's blood.
If his theory could be right, by combining the blood of someone that already survived such curse with the venom itself...
He might be able to cancel each other's destructive effects!
"Ugh...! Argh...!"
Frank quickly created a Domain to isolate himself from the outside world and not scare his
family as he screamed in pain, feeling like his skin was being peeled and his blood was
boiling.
For a moment, he felt like he fell, drowning into an endless sea of darkness... Only for him to notice gigantic snake-like eyes glancing at him amidst this darkness.
"What a bold little one... Desiring to steal my curse and powers from the only one that had
enraged me before."
"Y-You're...?!"
Frank gasped in disbelief, panicking as he saw a massive eight-headed, white and purple-
scaled snake.
It was so massive; he was as small as an ant compared to it!
Its gigantic snake-like eyes, glowing gold in color, pierced through his very soul.
"Who else, you insolent fool? I am Yamata-No-Orochi, the Serpent of Calamity."
"You're alive?! But didn't Susanoo slay you?"
From what Frank had heard from Matsuo, Yamata-No-Orochi had been slain by the Sword
God Susanoo after he got the snake drunk, making it lower its guard.
"My, the foreigner knows some myths, it seems..."
"How hilarious..."
"Well yes, he did cut our heads."
"But each head revived, and we became Eight More! Gahahaha!" Yamata-No-Orochi talked with each head having a different personality and voice.
Frank had no time to fool around, however.
"I'll take your power, so stop bothering me."
He glared at them with eyes full of determination.
"Hah?!"
The giant snake glared at him with even more anger.
But Frank didn't hesitate, summoning a black and red spear and a golden lance.
"This is a space made out of the mind, right? A Mindscape. I'll slay you, then I'll take what I
want from you."
"Y-You damn brat..."
"Fine!" "Come at me!"
"I'll rip you to shreds, foreigner!" CLAAASH!
