The Mysterious Black Magician

Chapter 141 - Exoskeleton



Chapter 141 - Exoskeleton

After the first Winged-Ant turned into a sphere, another one jumped on his palm. Then a second after it landed, like the first one it also turned into a sphere. But this time the color of energy inside it was brownish.

'Hmm, it must be the Winged-Ant that I instilled to Taflas. As expected it has the earth element. And the first one was a wind element from Tiafel,' Yman thought.

The same as the first sphere it also floats in the air then orbit around him.

The third Winged-Ant landed on his palm. Yman stared at it for a second. In truth, the concept of elasticity applied to the Winged-Ant was different from the rubber.

Like the other Fire Dolls, it was made of pure mana.. So after sucking more mana, it would reinforce its body and expand.

In addition, the concept of solidification of mana was different from rock or stone; though, it was barely identical to the relationship between water and ice.

After pondering, the third Winged-Ant also turned to a sphere a second after it touched his palm.

This time, it had a purplish color.

'A Lightning element. Must be Aegor's mana. Looks like people in the Encantasia mostly had one affinity only in an element. Probably because they are from different races. Like for example the Encan, they are only a few cases that they crossbreed from other races like Fatbeard or Wolfmen.

On the other hand, humans have no qualms about crossbreeding. They even promoted to breed a stronger offspring. Like for example marrying their sons and daughters into other sons and daughters with stronger magical power so that their offspring will become the wielder of multiple elements and have stronger magical power than their parents.

Besides, humans aren't prohibited in marrying other races. They are the father of crossbreeding, hehe.' 

After mulling he placed the third sphere floating in mid-air. Now three spheres are orbiting around him.

He looked like their sun. Yman continued what he was doing. The last two Winged-Ants were holding the same fire elemental mana. But the other one was a special case, and the other was denser. Even though they were siblings, twins to boot, and have the same element, their mana and element quality and quantity still differ from one another.

Yman didn't know why it was like that, and he didn't want to know either of how these two were made.

His only guess with their situation, that there was a power breeding happened to the members of their own family. Probably, between the Lupine family only.

Though it was only his baseless guess.

He didn't want to think more about this issue because it was a little bit personal and a little far off from what he was currently doing.

He slightly shook his head to get rid of such thought. 

Must focus himself.

When all of the Winged-Ant turned into spheres, Yman activated his Skill Modifying ability and started creating multiple skills out of all the mana and data he gathered.

First was the 'Framing!'

He needed to concentrate to create an exoskeleton of the creature he wanted to create. Yman did not think much of what kind of creature he would be going to create at the moment.

From his opened hands and his whole body, Black Miasma was exuding. It was gathering above him while trying to come up with a form.

Like clouds in the blue sky as they constantly change their shapes.

Yman was unbothered even though his two Enhance Fire Dolls that he left to guard were currently killing some monsters who tried to attack the others.

Not long, a black humanoid frame appeared overhead of him.

Though it wasn't complete, the shape wasn't polished. It was like a shadow of a fluttering cloak. But it was only natural since it was only the start.

The sphere with brownish-gleam inside was being sucked bit by bit as it orbited around him.

As the bits of it were being sucked off by the frame, the empty frame started to materialize 2 legs that were made of rock. A brownish rock. But it was too thin.

The sucking of brownish mana did not stop. The legs grew longer, about five meters tall. Then it continued to create the spinal cord, the rib cage, arms, and finally the neck and the gleaming skull with hollow eyes.

The remaining brownish mana continued orbiting around him. But at the moment it was smaller than a fist.

The other mana spheres were being sucked after, for resistance purposes.

When the enforcement of elemental resistance was done, a giant skeleton stood floating in mid-air above him, cloaked in Black Miasma that formed like a fluttering tattered cloak.

A second later, together with his Demonic Mana, the 5 spheres of mana went through to the exoskeleton.

From its hollow eyes, the flame ablaze.

The six spheres of mana were forming hexagram in the chest part of it.

If not because of his Skill Modifying ability, it would be impossible to combine his Black Miasma, Demonic Mana, and the Holy Flame of Cinder. But thanks to it, it became possible.

Still, it wasn't complete.

From his storage, a Bee-model Enhance Fire Doll came out. It was the same bee who monitored their battle outside the wall.

This bee did not join the fight at that time. But it had the most important role. To record the gesture, spells, and any other actions regarding the Skeleton Elder.

It was holding the skill 'Copy' from his Skill Modifying ability. Since it was difficult for him to copy yhe opponents ability while he was fighting. He thought of a method that could overcome this hurdle. That enables his 'Copy' ability to shine. And this what came to his mind. Good thing that it work perfectly.

The Bee-model Enhance Fire Doll flew towards the skull. A moment when it went through.

Owwwwoooooooooooohhhhh!!!

A loud howl was heard!!! It made the other monsters close by to tremble and scuttered away from the place.

The bee acted as the brain as it had all the data about the Skeleton Elder.

To finish it, he started modifying some of its skills. To improve the fighting capability. Like for example combining the Rapid Leap and Shadow Step.

After a couple of tries and failures, finally… a new skill was born! It was called Ghost Walk.

Yman did not finish with just that, he also modified the other skills of it.
