The King of Fairies is now a Demon Lord

Chapter 12: Blood Arts and Mana Growth

Chapter 12: Blood Arts and Mana Growth

~

We had both forgotten what happened yesterday and now I was teaching myself how to do vampiric blood manipulation.

I was currently in a garden near the hotel.

I was trying to find a secluded place where no one would be able to see me. It would be a bit of trouble if people saw me destroying their garden.

'Only after you have a good understanding of blood manipulation can we awaken our bonded blood art fully.' The words Aria told me reverberated in my head.

I could understand what she meant when she said that, she was kind enough to explain it to me... but looking back how I was the one putting myself into a mess it was the least she could do.

'Blood manipulation is an ancient and dangerous extension of one's body. All vampires and their bonded ones need to use their magic power to use them.

This mystical sorcery is used to cast spells, enchantments, and even curses through blood itself, the very bodily fluid which is the potent force as well as the essence of life itself in the working of magic. It may be a token sacrifice, but it may also be the loss of life that fuels the spell.

Blood arts are full of mysteries and their power is unknown and depends on genes purely, it is different from blood manipulation.

One person can only have two blood arts, their own blood art and bonded blood art with their partner.' This is what Aria explained.

It seemed like as if she was different from her usual when she was speaking about that, she was full of seriousness.

The interesting part of what she said was that blood arts also depends on blood genes.

Did you guess something?

No?

You guys are so dumb.

My blood is that of an angel, demon and lastly fairy.

I am a being who violates all the rules. Whether I was a demon or a fairy, everything was unknown. I was most likely both but a demon more, at least for now until I evolve and progress.

What would a demon+fairy+angel be called?

Irakiel.

One of a kind, something that belongs to only me, the only being of my species.

Alright that is enough exaggeration for now.

Let's first start with the basics of blood manipulation for now.

I bit my nail very hard and blood started to flow from it.

My red blood flowed in the air like as if it was morphing. It was like as if it was a liquid in zero gravity.

Slowly it transformed into a large needle and then it started to split up and many smaller needles started to split up from it.

Then I struck them all towards the nearby bark of a tree.

Swoosh!

Krr krr

Foosh!

Countless holes appeared on the tree.

I chuckled looking at the small holes, the size of an ant, seems like I'll have to practice a bit more to perfect it.

Maybe I should start working out... because the previous me was a bastard scum.. all his workout would be more like sexercise.

But I can't lie that also helps in losing weight and gaining muscles.

Also, the other fact was that I was cursed in all my lives to never look like a macho... but what I have also noticed is that girls nowadays don't seem to like it.

Although I do want to see how I look when I am macho, I also feel at the same time that it is disgusting.

Will my chair be able to handle my weight?

Or maybe it will break and ill become a laughing stock in front of people.

That gives me shivers...

I mean I am content with how I look... maybe more than content. I love myself and others should also love thyselves.

A 'little' self-love doesn't hurt.... right?

I had a satisfied expression and folded my arms into a proud manner. How could a person have perfect control over something he doesn't even know about?! Unless of course, that person was me.

Anyway, I should not be too smug, because that is just the basic blood utility of blood art if I am right.

I wondered what Aria's expression would be if she saw how quickly I mastered the blood art, at least the basics of it.

The basics of blood arts were quite good, if used properly it could be pretty dangerous, I couldn't help but wonder how my bonded blood art would be, but I guess I'll leave that part for Aria to teach me.

Yes, it's not an excuse to have sex, definitely not.

I immediately felt my mana and blood draining! It certainly used up a lot of mana. From the beginning, I had low mana in this body so this was a little disadvantageous.

Looks like I will have to start to circulate mana to increase my mana pool.

I closed my eyes and sat cross-legged in the lotus position.

In cultivation, a person simply absorbs and then circulates the pure energy.

Just like how in cultivation I had to circulate my innate mana. Normally fairies don't have any mana so they can't use mana but I could use it because I was an abomination.

I started to circulate my mana, it flowed from one Meridian to another. It seemed that my awakening of the angel bloodline had removed some of the clogs in my meridians so that I could circulate mana properly.

That was a bit surprising, even though I could have also removed it with my acupuncture skills, it feels better when it is all-natural.

I immediately felt a rush of mana, it was increasing with each revolution! I could feel it! It was a very fast growth!

I knew that it was not just because of the unclogging of the meridians but also because I had broken through to the first cultivation realm in fairy cultivation the day before yesterday.

I was shocked at first I thought that I wouldn't be able to use magic due to how low it was. But now seeing the speed at which my mana was increasing I was simply astonished, not much not less.

If this went on then wouldn't I become a total abomination?!

Well, that's fine by me but it would become quite troublesome when the heavenly tribulations will start to take place.

With every breakthrough in my spiritual core, the speed at which my mana would increase would also rise up!

That would fastener progress a lot, also the fact that my mana is very pure, my spes would be more potent than the normal at least.

Just two days back my mana flow was extremely pitiful but now it was increasing at an insane speed like a raging river that too just on my stage one core! I couldn't help but imagine how strong I would be in the future.

I could definitely surpass my old self!

I will become the monarch of cultivation and magic both! There is no doubt about that!

I might have to reassess to check my magic element. The excitement was filling up the core of my being!

I am gonna circulate mana even more!

This type of feeling is simply exhilarating!

The adrenaline! The rush! The feeling of success without pain!

I love it all!!

I gripped my teeth and bit my lips with elation so hard that even blood started to flow from it.

Instantly my mana pool doubled in size! I looked at it with ecstasy.

After a while, I finally stopped circulating my mana. I clenched my hands and started to stretch so that my body wouldn't get cramped.

If I circulated for a long time, I could even get a backlash. That was apparently the reason to why people didn't circulate mana for hundreds of years compared to how cultivation was.

The principle of magic itself was backlash!

There would be a backlash for everything if strained too hard.

Just like how the backlash took place on the old elf lady.
