Blood Assimilation

"Don't bother reporting that you saw two monsters escaping the rift. You don't have any prove and I am assuming that you have no idea where they went either, right? Just go to your room and leave this to the government. They are already searching the perimeters anyway, if there are monsters or beasts out there, they would find them sooner or later, there is nothing you can do to help with that." The indifferent voice resounded in the living room.

"Okay, I will head to my room now." Randy agreed with his mother, and he then walked the stairs leading to the second floor. However, on his way, he heard a voice behind him.

"There is food in the refrigerator if you are hungry." His mother said to him.

"Okay, mom. I will come down later when I finish showering." Randy said in response without stopping his tracks as he made his way towards his room. Right now, he wanted to check his abilities before taking a shower or even doing anything else.

…

When Randy left, his mother had a pondering look on her face as she thought back to what her son had told her. A moment later, she sighed and muttered to herself.

"It appears that he was indeed telling the truth about the rift, but still… he was very lucky to have survived this crisis. Just why is Randy the only one among three of my children, that still hadn't awakened his ability? Did he inherit our worse genes or something? Even if he did not inherit my magical aptitude, he should at least inherit his father's ability or at least become an evolved human, but he did not exhibit any of these features. Just what was going on with this child?"

"Haa..." She sighed again as she looked towards the stairs with an indiscernible expression on her face.

…

Inside Randy's Room.

Randy sat down on the floor in his room as soon as he entered his room. He took in a deep breath, and he breathed out slowly to calm down his mind. Moments later, he called out in his mind.

'Status Screen.'

"Now that I am looking at it again, my attributes stats had decreased a lot after I undo the transformation from my assimilated mode. Previously, when I was in my assimilated Werewolf form, all my basic attributes increased by 300 except for my soul and mental attributes which increased by 150." Randy muttered to himself as he looked at the project screen in front of him.

Then he suddenly thought of something, and then he proceeded to look down on the screen.

---

<[Reinforcement[30%](Only activated when in assimilated mode)]>

---

'Looking at this, It is safe to assume that with every ten percent increase in the assimilated ability of the Werewolf form, I will receive a 100 increase in my basic attributes and 50 increase in my soul and mental attributes.' Randy surmised after looking at his statistics on the screen in front of him.

'After all, right now, I can only use thirty percent of the assimilated reinforcement ability, yet I was able to increase my basic stats by three hundred and my soul and mental attribute by one hundred and fifty. That means, if I can somehow get this assimilated ability to say hundred percent then wouldn't I be able to fight an S-Rank opponent with the boosted stats? This is so insane, Hahaha!' Randy laughed inwardly as he was afraid to wake his little sister who was sleeping on the other side on this floor. Although the distance between them was a lot due to the size of the mansion being big, but one cannot be too cautious. What if she somehow passed by his room and heard him laughing like a maniac, she reports to their mother and then his mother assumes that his son has finally lost his mind, so she proceeds to take him to a mental hospital or something? That would be really terrible. Randy shook his head to get rid of those thoughts and he put all his attention towards the screen in front of him.

'This is really amazing but alas, it is only a dream as I cannot even imagine myself being as lucky as before and acquiring the blood of that wolf-like creature, hmm? I suppose it was a werewolf since the system said so. But damn, a werewolf? If it was indeed a werewolf then maybe there are vampires on the other side of the rift too, wait, now that I think about it, that pale looking guy with red eyes might actually be a vampire. Were they fighting each other or something? Whatever, that has nothing to do with me. I am only glad that I was able to survive their encounter with me. In any case, I have to thank that werewolf for donating his blood to otherwise, I wouldn't have awakened my ability.' Randy thought deeply to himself as he looked at the middle section of his status screen.

…

'This is so fucking crazy! No matter how much I look at this, I think it is broken. I mean how can I hold that much energy inside my body? Won't I simply explode someday?' Randy screamed inside his head as he looked at his combat system power levels.

"Forget it, what matters the most now is that I had actually awakened my ability. As for what happens afterwards, I will think about that later. Does those numbers next to the Combat Systems represent what realm I am currently in at the moment. After all, my magic is already at the fourth-circle Magician Realm although I don't know any spells, and the number next to the Magical Realm said [4] so it definitely has some correlation with the 'circle' of my Magical Realm. As for awakening as a magician, that is not too surprising since my mother is also a magician and most people awakened with their parent's abilities, but I wonder why I suddenly acquired that much mana even if I had awakened. Was it because I was near the rift when I awakened and due to that, I was exposed to the mana emanating from the rift? Well, this is just a speculation anyway, since I am not an expert when it comes to this stuff, but it does make sense to assume it as that being the case, otherwise, I don't know how to explain my sudden increase in mana." Randy thought with a pondering expression while looking at his current mana accumulated.

I think I remember the system said something about creating some 'vessels' for the energies inside me or something, where is it? Oh, it's at the top of this section." Randy said as he looked upwards, and he saw the system information provided for him.

…

⟪[Reminder: Due to the chaotic energy detected in your body, there was a necessity for the creation of energy vessels to hold the energies as soon as possible. To prevent your existence from falling into a chaotic state, the system took the liberty to create the energy vessels for all the current energies in your body. Currently Created Vessels: Mana Seed, and Dual Dantian/Two Energy Cores(Life Energy and Spiritual energy). As for the rest, they are in the process of creation. When you fulfill the necessary conditions, only then would they be fully created]⟫

…

'Hmm… According to this, my body had different energies residing in it and the system created energy vessels to contain these energies? But what does it mean that my existence would fall into a chaotic state? Does that mean I would die from the energies or perhaps something more dreadful? Damn, if it really is like I am thinking then I really am glad that the system created this vessel thing for me otherwise, forget about getting an ability, I might end up dying sooner or later.' Randy thought with a solemn expression on his face at this moment.

After a while, he turned his attention to the very bottom of the Status Screen, where his Class Specific Skills tab was located.

…

'Hmm… It seemed that my evolution ability really had something to do with blood as all the skills names had blood next to them." Randy thought and he continued, 'Blood Assimilate, I think I know what that does but I would have to experiment next time on some monster when I get the chance, but I wonder where to get such a monster. Maybe I should register as a hunter and go to those dungeons behind the gates or perhaps go to the mountains and hunt some mutated beast? Well, I will think of that later.'

'Blood Retain, I think I know what it does just from its name, retain. It probably means that I can either discard a blood that I assimilate with or retain it using this ability. I will have to try this out too when I fight otherworldly creatures in the future.'

'Blood Scan, that sounds like I can scan the properties of blood, but I don't know the specifics of what that entails or what that means for me to scan blood in the first place. Wait, can I scan my old blood? I should try it out and see." Randy thought as he grabbed a small knife from his drawer next to his bed and poke his index finger with it without hesitation. He did not feel any pain when he did or more precisely, he was unperturbed by the pain.. This kind of pain is nothing compared to having one's face burned with fire.
