Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic

Book 5: Chapter 51: Skill Update

Scarlet

After judging several more matches, I decide to do something productive with this time and open my status to check on the skills Ive gained since my leveling spree began.

As the match down below is going on, I open the descriptions of each of my new skills.

{Nullification Resistance The user becomes resistant to the effects of magic-nullifying or dispelling powers, ensuring their own magical powers remain intact even within null magic zones.}

{Blood Life The user gains a pseudo immortality, making it so that as long as they have blood within a five hundred kilometer radius around them, they will always be able to reform their body.}

{Lesser Blood Runes Allows the user to form and learn the lesser Blood Runes from the Runic Alphabet.}

{Blood Bond Allows the user to establish a blood bond between individuals by exchanging blood, granting them shared strength, senses, and even the ability to share pain or injuries.}

I tap my chin while reading through the descriptions and occasionally glancing down at the fighting below.

Theyre all very good, even if I havent exactly been able to test them out much.

The Red Plague kind of just makes my other skills a moot point right now, since it eats everything. Except really powerful beings, that is. Apparently, according to the Fae King, if I tried to devour a Knight of Humanity or a Demon Lord, or Gramps for example, it would basically just work as an incredibly dangerous attack that would damage their reality and potential future. But it wouldnt kill them or devour them right away. Especially Gramps. It might not even work on him at all beyond some pain.

For now at least.

Im not planning on testing it, though. So this theorizing doesnt matter.

The match in the arena ends, so I quickly call out the winner, send the two combatants out of the arena, let the next two in, and pick a random arena that ends up being a field of flowers. Which is a little awkward considering the two ghouls fighting each other, but I dont really care. I just focus on my skills descriptions again.

Lesser Blood Runes is an achievement-locked skill I got from Leonidas, the lesser version of Blood Runes. And Blood Life is the achievement-locked skill that I got from Gramps, the lesser version of his Blood Immortal Title-Bearing Mythic skill.

That said, Lesser Blood Runes is a little useless at the moment since all I know is a tiny spark of inspiration on how to figure out a rune. Since this skill works differently from any other skill Ive had thus far. Just like those people who have Rune Magic.

Not something I can just activate because I want to.

So a pain.

And I cant test out Blood Life without dying. And dying probably isnt fun.

Tar snorts at that but doesnt say anything.

Its too bad that I dont get SP from devouring things with the Red Plague. Makes for a waste, if Im being honest.

Although I do still get the SP from achievements at least.

I dont get as many achievements though, which is also a waste. Since the Red Plague is so powerful, theres not really many grand achievements that I can get through it.

The System just doesnt work that way.

Giving me a bunch of really good achievements for that would basically just be giving away free stuff to a powerful person for being powerful. Especially since Im not really doing much to level up right now. Just kinda sitting back and letting the Red Plague eat stuff.

As for Blood Bond and Nullification Resistance yeah, I cant really use those. The only person I know with null magic aside from me is Amelia. So the only use for Nullification Resistance is that I wont have to worry about my own use of null magic affecting me as much anymore. Which is a plus at least.

But for Blood Bond, I cant use that. Or rather, I cant use it on me. Because I cant exactly swap my blood with someone else.

Not unless they want to catch the Red Plague, that is.

And I doubt they do.

I can use it on other people though. But I havent had a chance to try yet.

Also, since Bane of Corruption is ironically a little useless for me right now, considering my immunity to corruption, I started focusing my Skill Points on Crimson Overdrive. Since its my best purchased combat skill.

Once again, not that Ive had a chance to test it out since the Red Plague.

You almost sound like youre complaining about the Red Plague, Tar comments from my lap.

I tilt my head with a slight yawn.

Hmm, well, it definitely has its uses, but it is also rather annoying. Imagine having something writhing around under your skin from time to time. Its just plain uncomfortable.

Tar doesnt say anything for a few seconds before muttering, Yeah, I can see that.

A loud bell rings across the artificially created universe, following which I find myself suddenly appearing in the middle of the bleachers. And when I raise my head to look above the arenas, I find a different set of competitors overlooking them.

Cool. My jobs done here.

I turn around, only to be faced with a bunch of fans.

Tar

You still cant punch him, Tar says before I can even ask.

Darn.
