Chapter 119: Feathers

"What's not good?" Trixie asked, peeking down from my head to stare at my face.

"I have a trait that lets me convert mana into slime," Trixie looked at me horrified, so I quickly clarified. "My own mana."

Trixie visibly relaxed, her tiny form shifting on my head. I could understand her fear-if she was a being of pure mana, as she claimed, the thought of being converted into slime was surely horrific. "It was useful when ...

Chapter 118 : Final Lesson

While I waited for Trixie to wake up, I again continued my work on enhancing my spell. To better understand [Frost Grasp] and practice speed casting, I had my [Sub-Cores] rotate through the castings of the spell at a distance. Icy, ethereal hands formed briefly to freeze a nearby rock or flower in the distance before disappearing.

I hadn't noticed it at first with spells like [Icicle] or [Water Orb] due to their minimal cost; it seemed...

Chapter 117: Safety Override

The next day was a continuation of the same, a relentless cycle of almost succeeding, only to be plunged back into the depths of failure. I turned to Trixie, hoping for a glimmer of advice, but her response was a genuine, regrettable denial.

"I certainly hope I don't have to overcome this each and every time..." I said with a hint of anxiety.

"Thankfully, it stays broken once you've overcome the mental block," Trixie replied. 2024-06-10 13:02:30 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 116 : Pixie Lessons

I awoke the next morning bright and early; Trixie was still asleep, snoring loudly and contorted in her hammock in a precarious position. I decided to sneak outside and continue working with my spells until she woke up and supposedly would help train me. Regardless of whatever help she offered me, I wanted a proper, usable offensive ice spell and immediately brought all my [Sub-Cores] to help with the task.

My concentration finally br...

Chapter 115: Cleanup

A sense of victory washed over me as I confirmed the successful harvest of alicorn horn, mane, hide, and feathers. Trixie and I leisurely flew back towards the tree, observing the lost and uncoordinated pegasi still in the air. Trixie, with her enigmatic demeanor, seemed to be concealing our presence, ensuring we remained completely undisturbed. Her actions, shrouded in a veil of mystery, were a puzzle, evading even my most rigorous attem...

Chapter 114: Old Tactics

After the scream came the panicked attempts at escape from the alicorn prince, but I had ensured I was tightly wrapped around his barrel with my arm and an accompanying tendril.

"No! Unhand me, foul beast!" He demanded as he slammed a golden sword deep into the orcish face.

The orc head had no core inside, so there was no real risk to me, and once again, I felt obligated to put on a bit of a performance. Either [Acting] wanted an e...

Chapter 113: Horsing Around

Unlike the pegasi, the unicorns felt far less threatening as they struggled to dodge any of my attacks. Their beams of light, while initially scary due to their speed and penetration, were not as deadly for me. With their wind, coordinated teamwork, and evasive speed, the pegasi would have been my primary concern if not for whatever Trixie did to hide my spells. With my spells hidden, I no longer needed to unleash an improbable barrage and ...

Chapter 112: Up the Tree

While flight was an option, I decided to stick to the ground as we approached the giant tree to delay getting there and avoid making myself a flying target. Once I was close to or under it, I hoped to stealthily make my entrance to avoid being thrown around in the wind again.

I was determined to level up [Ice Magic], so I resumed my previous cycle through weapons, hoping to reach the next stage. Meanwhile, Trixie was still sitting on my ...

Chapter 111: Pegasi

The air surrounding all the pegasi rippled as they all started commanding it to follow their whims. Part of me was glad this would be an interesting challenge against so many [Wind Magic] users, but on the flip side, it would have been so much simpler to handle all these flying horses if they tried to fight with their hooves.

With a burst of speed they clearly didn't expect, I charged directly toward the nearest pegasus, throwing my armor int...

Chapter 110 : Chains

"This is crazy. I trust you, but the reality of this situation is just too absurd," Trixie exclaimed, her head shaking in disbelief.

"Is it really that absurd? I know Gramps said I was an [Experiment], but I didn't think I'd be that different from the others." I questioned.

"Ha! Did you give one of them a nickname? That's cute." Trixie giggled, "So what's this experiment?"

"Well, I got told I died before accomplishing anything an...

Chapter 109 : Spirit

"Well... I've freed you, so I guess we can part ways now." I said, my voice laced with a hint of impatience, not wanting to deal with the pixie anymore.

"Don't be like that, Blueblin. We might have gotten off on the wrong foot, but I'm sure we can resolve our differences." Trixie responded, patting herself and causing a comical amount of soot to fall from her person, the bright, vivid coloring returning to her once more.

"Stop calling ...

Chapter 108 : Trixie

Upon hearing the voice, I immediately swiveled in the direction, taking an offensive stance, tendrils out and a [Fireball] spell rapidly forming within my palm. Tucked into the corner of the room as if forgotten was a silver birdcage, and inside it, sitting in a cross-legged position, was a tiny winged girl looking at me.

She had extremely long, disheveled golden hair splayed along the cage's bottom. Sprouting out of her back were what looke...

Chapter 107: Ghoulish

At the sight of the battle-ready ghoul, I immediately triggered [Tranquil Flow], and a serene warmth washed over my mind and emotions. The ghoul leaped forward, its claws and fangs hungering for flesh. Moving with a calm and fluid grace, my body effortlessly evaded its attack. It lunged again, its hostility a mere force to be diverted, and my body seamlessly glided out of harm's way.

'The attacks are like currents... And I'm just follow...
