Here is the sneek peek of the work…
“Yes, anyone can use them.”
“Anyone can use them?”
“As long as you’re an animal with blood flowing through you….”
‘Ah, so that’s why it’s called blood arts.’
“It feels like magic that uses blood.”
Seina shook her head.
“Am I wrong?”
“Blood arts are magic that proves one’s existence through blood….”
“That’s profound. Teach me. How do I do it?”
“First… hmm… p-please take a deep breath.”
Seina’s cheeks flushed as she stuttered, probably embarrassed.
“I’m sorry, I’ve never taught blood arts to anyone else before.”
“Are you nervous?”
I acted friendly and grabbed Seina’s shoulder, massaging it.
“Yes, a little….”
“Let’s take it slow together.”
Maybe I could use this training as an excuse to get closer to Seina? I had expected hellish training, but it was more relaxed than I thought.
“Please sit in the lotus position and concentrate.”
Cecil closed her eyes and entered concentration mode. I closed my eyes and tried to concentrate too.
I spent about ten minutes like that, not even knowing what I was supposed to be concentrating on.
“Do you feel it?”
This suddenly felt like a cult.
“No, not really….”
“It’s pitch black! Master.”
“Hmm….”
It seemed she didn’t know how to teach.
“How about Seina shows us an example, and we follow?”
“Ah, if that’s the case.”
Suddenly, the flow of air changed.
No… it was the flow of mana that changed. The flow of mana expanded around Seina.
Both Cecil and I were startled by the storm-like current and opened our eyes wide.
It was the same as with Liruke…
The flow of mana supported a visible form.
In Seina’s case, the color of the manifestation kept shifting.
A red skull…!
Cecil and I instinctively jumped back and pressed ourselves against the wall, wary of Seina.
Cold sweat dripped down my back. This was terrifying. I wanted to get out of here…!
As Seina rose from her seated position, Cecil tensed, ready to pounce at any moment.
“This is an Avatar. It’s a manifestation of one’s existence through blood arts….”
“Can you put it away? It’s scary….”
I felt like I was about to draw my sword too.
Seina deactivated her Avatar and exhaled.
‘Oh my god… just looking at it had drained all my will to fight…’
“Once you’re able to summon your Avatar, you can use proper blood arts.”
“Is it like a special move?”
“Yes.”
“It feels too difficult….”
“The fact that you saw my Avatar means you have a solid foundation.”
Cecil and I made eye contact at the same time.
“Well, our first master was the Sword Empress.”
“Master!”
“I can see the flow of mana. You too, Cecil, right?”
“About half…?”
‘Ah, it seemed Cecil couldn’t see it completely yet.’
I felt a twinge of envy. That skull I saw earlier… it was definitely going to haunt my dreams.
What is Seina, really? The phrase “proof of existence” was hard to grasp.
What did that terrifying form have to do with the beautiful, alluring Princess? She didn’t seem like the type with a dark heart…
“Being able to see means being able to understand. Your Avatars will also want to come out.”
“Want to… come out?”
It wriggled. A monologue… my guide.
This ability had been helping me regardless of my will.
My destiny…
Do you want to come out?
There was no answer.
But as the monologue had said, I could feel something wriggling.
“What exactly is an Avatar? Does it think and move on its own?”
“It’s different for everyone. The ability and potential of blood arts… are innate talents.”
I instinctively knew that my abilities were deeply connected to my Avatar.
“It starts with summoning the Avatar. Then….”
Do I have to do boring meditation training?
I looked back, but I couldn’t see anything.
I felt like an idiot with a post-it note stuck to my back, completely unaware.
If I turned, my Avatar would turn too…
“If you feel it, you can grasp its form.”
“It’s something… something….”
Cecil’s words trailed off.
Why…?
I hoped it wasn’t an Avatar that looked like balls.
If it was, I was sealing my blood arts.
“Ah, I can’t concentrate because I’m impatient! What does it look like?”
I spun around like a puppy chasing its tail.
Seina observed me closely and then…
“Hmm… a sack…?”
“Huh?”
“It looks like a sack used to hold something!”
“No… way.”
I stopped abruptly and asked Cecil,
“Cecil, is there….”
“Huh?”
“…’Five Grains” written on that sack?”
“…Uh, hmm… yes!”
“I see….”
God of magic. You were watching over me.
“It seems like Sir Geum Taeyang’s Avatar was ready to come out.”
“What about its abilities?”
“That… I’m not sure….”
“I feel like power is surging through my body….”
“When you summon your Avatar… it varies from person to person, but you become about ten to twenty times stronger.”
“Really?”
Am I in Five Grains mode right now?
“Cecil, wanna arm wrestle?”
“One, two….”
“Huuuh!”
“Kuh!”
The moment we put strength into our arms, the match was decided in an instant.
Cecil’s… defeat!
My victory!
“I was completely overpowered!”
“When you’re in Avatar state, your strength and agility increase dramatically.”
“Hahaha! Don’t underestimate Five Grains mode.”
“I’m going to summon my Avatar too!”
“Cecil, you’re so weak.”
Cecil narrowed her eyes as if offended and stomped her feet.
“Just you wait!”
I punched the air.
“Five Grains Punch!”
Whoosh!
The sound of my fist cutting through the air echoed through the training ground.
What was with this impact? I could easily knock out a heavyweight boxer.
I couldn’t figure out the full ability yet, but it was a tremendous boost.
“Master, please teach me too!”
“Summoning an Avatar depends on your intuition…. People with good intuition learn it quickly, but some can take years.”
“Years…? Sob….”
Seina thought for a moment and then came up with a training method for us.
“Then, I’ll scatter mana… Let’s start by stabilizing the mana.”
“Yes! Master!”
“Ugh.”
I felt the strength drain from my body.
Enjoy!!
