Omni-Mastery

'This game is awfully sadistic…'

Having just dealt with some experimenting that caused me a big deal of head pain even though the results were more than satisfying in the end, I didn't proceed with adding stats or my other tasks in mind as I simply wanted to do something relaxing. Basically, something with more fun and less pain…

As such, I figured it's better to do what I had just put aside due to the disappointment, something that had to do with an ability that I already obtained and wasn't trying to obtain, something that I already tried part of before.

However, in the end, even that seemingly harmless ability was laced with poison all the same…

'To think that even Dragonization…'

The very first time I had used the dragonization's dragon scales ability was completely without pain other than the sting I felt at the synchronizing of the ability as a whole, the emergence and disappearance of dragon scales that were supposedly coming out of my bones simply felt like I was putting on a suit of armor or taking it off.

Though it would be a lie if I said that didn't make it feel unreal to me, it was at least quite convenient and easy to use, but it finally seemed like my doubt about the mechanism was stronger than I thought that the ability let me experience it myself this soon…

My main purpose was to try the new dragon wings that I obtained which held the possibility of my flying as I please with no energy consumption, but I wanted to see myself in the full 'suit' so I started by going into full dragon scales mode, but it turned out that it wasn't exactly that bright of an idea.

As soon as the first scale started to emerge I could feel the pain at the exact spot it appeared, like something inside me was simply leaving its original spot, this pain continued to travel and spread through my body like some sort of a disease till the scales covered my entire body, as if it was setting it on fire...

"Mhhhhhhh…"

Holding down my breath to limit the pain, I had to wait one whole minute before my blood started to fill in the missing parts, which were apparently bone marrow…

Though the pain itself wasn't unbearable considering my 'Immunity' skill, the feeling of inside-emptiness was quite uncomfortable, it almost reminded me of a fragment of my 'feeling' back when I was unable to move at all.

All in all, this painful moment wasn't the most painful one I went through in the game, but it definitely made it to my list of in-game pains that shouldn't be in a game, a list that wasn't exactly as small as one would hope it to be...

'They better add pain assimilation into the game options when it's completed…'

Even I, who was probably the most familiar with the concept of pain, wasn't comfortable with the pain that awaited me at most advancing moments. If such a thing was to remain in a game that people would play for fun, it wouldn't be hard to predict the ratings of the game.

As true as pain contributed really well into the realism concept, it was something that people usually avoided even in real life, if increasing your strength would trigger that, then surely lifestyle players would be more thriving than fighters…

Taking a look at the mirror that I prepared for my 'full suit' display, I wasn't surprised to see that the color of the scales was no longer the same, instead of the sky-blue color that it used to have, it now had a mix of both blue and green, even though blue was still the dominant color.

'Time to complete the suit…'

Activating the only thing that was left, and the main target of my trial, 'Dragon Wings', I welcomed the next level of pain.

"Gahhh…"

[ 'Pain Immunity' has leveled up! ]

My eyes were fixated at the mirror as I felt the horrible pain coming from my chest, something was moving there and it was even visible from the outside, not just visually, but one could even tell what was happening just from the sound!

Tick! Click! Click…

'What in the…'

My mental vision could tell me exactly what was moving, or breaking to be exact, but this felt almost as freaky as the whole incident I had inside the Elemental Blade Sect's secret library…

Tshhh!

The sound of cutting was the only thing that stopped the voice of constant bone breaking as the mirror in front of me statically displayed the sight that looked like it just came out of a horror movie.

My fifth rib bones from both sides were now completely out of my body, with the only connection left with my body being the thoracic spinal vertebrae it was attached to as if two very small and not really wide wings of bone had grown out of me…

The bloody double bones that had already changed shape from the constant breaking only got more bloody as the red liquid started to seep down the bones before… solidifying.

As the blood solidified into what looked like a red layer of skin, the bones started to grow longer and longer, which was the least painful part of the whole process as the layer of bloody red skin grew longer with it.

It took two minutes before the double rib bones had reached a size that was triple their original one as the growth of the bone seemed to be quite slow while the vertebrae that they were connected to doubled its width and allowed the growth of other rib bones in the place of the missing ones.

Watching all of this happen through the mirror while feeling every point of it made me subconsciously curse a few times as I tried to endure, it took another 5 minutes before all the unfamiliar feeling had disappeared and the 'full suit' had finally revealed itself!

The two bloody wings no longer could be called bloody as their color had already changed to that of the new scales shedding the layer of red like a piece of discarded skin and declaring themselves a new part of my 'dragon body'...
