Ascension: Strongest Fateless Mage

"T-this…," Zevien was surprised to find himself in an unfamiliar place.

He looked around and saw that he was inside a cave of some sort, and it was creepy.

There was a blood pond in front of him, some small trees with dark red trunks and dark green leaves with red veinous patterns.

Blood-red flowers with white patterns all around him with strange red glowing rocks; all in all, the place looked a bit creepy.

After a few seconds of looking around, Zevien's received information in his mind.

"Inviolable Blood Garden magic labyrinth….," Zevien muttered as he became dumbfounded.

"Wait a second! I… Did I just awaken a second magic labyrinth?" A string of words left his mouth in total disbelief, 'also, I have never heard of this magic labyrinth before.'

After disbelief came excitement, and then he calmed down and sat down cross-legged before closing his eyes and entering meditation.

It was time to get another awakening magic spell.

As time passed, blood particles started gathering around him.

Approximately twenty minutes later, a whirlpool of blood particles was seen surrounding Zevien before entering inside him.

Mystical blood red patterns appeared in his magic core near the purple patterns, and they almost filled the rest of the space of his magic core.

With two awakening magic spells, his magic core was almost full.

Zevien opened his eyes and checked his magic core before deciding to remove Exploding Bullets magic spell from his magic core.

After releasing the A-rank magic spell, Exploding bullets, Zevien checked the space and nodded, "now I should be able to weave the tier-1 magic spell, Flash Curtain, in my magic core."

He then stood up and walked into the passage in the cave because to try the newly awakening magic spell that he just got, he needed the blood of a magic beast.

The awakening magic spell he got was known as Morphing Blood Art.

This awakening magic spell had a pretty harsh requirement due to its strain on the body, but Zevien felt that it was really very versatile and could be useful in almost all situations as long as he was prepared.

After walking for a while in the passage, Zevien arrived outside of the cave and saw a blood deer with dark red horns.

The deer spotted Zevien and dashed towards him with glowing horns.

Zevien remained calm as he internally cast the First Vehemence, Somatic Anger, and strengthened his physical body.

Before the deer could hit him, he lightly sidestepped while grabbing its horn with one hand, and using the deer's own momentum, he exerted his strength as he pulled the horn and rotated slightly before throwing the deer beast as it crashed into a boulder.

Right after that, he pointed his hand towards the deer and externally cast First Vehemence, Somatic Anger.

*Swoosh…*

A purple orb shot towards the deer before it could stand up and killed it as its head got blasted.

Zevien moved beside it and pointed his hand towards it before quickly using his new awakening magic spell, Morphing Blood Art before the deer decayed completely.

His hand glowed slightly, and a tiny blood-red whirlpool was formed. Some blood drops from the deer flew towards it due to the suction force and got absorbed inside it.

After a few seconds, the deer's body decayed and turned into motes as they went inside Zevien's body and strengthened him slightly.

After absorbing some blood drops from the magic beast using his Blood Morphing Art, Zevien activated its Full-Morph effect.

Blood particles surrounded Zevien's body for two seconds before dispersing, and what appeared was the same blood deer that Zevien had just killed.

Exactly the same!

'Nice…,' Zevien thought as he started walking slowly. He could also use the power that the deer possessed.

"Let's see how powerful it is….," Zevien muttered from his deer mouth as he consumed some mana and used the deer's power, causing his deer horn to start glowing.

Afterward, he dashed towards the boulder at full speed.

*BAAAM!*

His glowing horn crashed into the boulder and smashed it into pieces.

"Damn….this power is equivalent of a lethal A-rank magic spell," Zevien muttered as she sighed, "glad I didn't try to take it head-on, or it would have made me half-dead at least."

Afterward, Zevien started running around at full speed, and it was very fast. Its jumping power was also very high.

He would never be able to catch up to the deer's speed in his human form.

He decided to try something and internally cast Somatic Anger to buff the deer's body, and it worked!

He was running like a speeding car in this enhanced deer form as he nimbly avoided blood trees and obstacles such as rocks and boulders.

*Awoooooooo…..*

Suddenly, Zevien heard a wolf's howl and paused before looking in the direction from where he heard that.

"Shit!" Zevien cursed as he rushed back to the cave's direction quickly after seeing a wolf that was the size of a normal lion.

It was a damn Grade-5 wolf magic beast, and…he would be courting death if he fought it without sufficient preparation or a solid plan to kill it fast.

'Is this wolf alone?' Zevien thought while running as if his life depended on it.

He was here with his physical body, and even though he hadn't tested yet but he had a feeling that if he died here, he would really die instead of returning to the outside world.

He could stay longer in the magic labyrinth with a complete body here (physical body and magic eidos) and strengthen his body after killing a magic beast. But this benefit came with the risk of dying as well.

Fortunately, he didn't need to worry about depleting his mana inside the magic labyrinth as it would instantly recover whenever he used some of it. Naturally, it was also true for everyone here, including the magic beasts.

So to survive longer and attain more power to kill magic beasts in a magic labyrinth, one must have a powerful combat ability and a fine set of spells with a good mastery over them.

After running for ten minutes straight, he finally lost the wolf.

Good thing that his Somatic Anger magic spell increased his physical aspects, and with the deer constitution that let it run very fast, he left that wolf in dust and returned to the cave.

There, he removed the Full-Morph mode and did Partial-Morphing.

He returned to his human form, but there were two blood-red glowing deer horns on top of his head.

Aside from Full-Morph, where he could entirely turn himself into the creature, he could also turn any aspect of his body into that of the creature that he used its blood to cast the Blood Morphing Art magic spell.

So, this Blood Morphing Art magic spell was indeed versatile.

'It looks like I will have to collect blood vials of various magic beasts, hehe.'
