"No need to apologize, Cortney. You were just looking out for your friend. But you better take a shower or something before this whole cave starts to sting like you." Having refined her soul energy for the first time, Cortney's body emitted a lot of black waste through her skin pores. Because of this, she smelled a lot.
"Debt possession- Water Boa Skill - Purify." Heeding my advice Cortney activated her origin card, Tome of Contracts to borrow the Purify skill of a B-rank monster Water Boa.
"Your origin card is very handy." Got to say the combination of Cortney's Origin card and her physique make a sweet ability. She doesn't need active skill cards as her ability allows her to borrow skills from monsters that made contracts with her.
"Right! Thanks to this, I was able to master the basic circulation technique faster than I expected." Cortney was satisfied with her origin card. Apparently it seems to be the reason behind her mastering the technique in under half an hour when it would take other card apprentice days or weeks.
"How so?" I asked, unable to understand how Cortney's origin card could help her master the basic circulation technique in under half an hour.
"After trying the Basic circulation method, I realized that trick to refining the soul energy laid in the precise control of soul energy inside me. After uncovering that rest was a piece of cake as I used my origin card to borrow Bloodette's soul energy manipulation skill to help me master the technique" Cortney explained how she had mastered the basic circulation technique in under half an hour using her origin card.
"What Bloodette has soul energy manipulation skill?" I asked in surprise as Soul energy manipulation skill is an overpowered ability. For someone as heavens defying as Bloodette to possess something like that was just overkill.
"My soul energy manipulation is a passive ability limited only to my body. I cannot manipulate soul energy outside my body. Thanks to his skill, I can maintain this humanoid form. Otherwise, I would be in the form of a blood blob." Turns out that Bloodette's soul manipulation skill is not overpowered as the one I have. Her skill, at best, allows her to control the soul energy in her body and nothing more. But thanks to that, she could form a humanoid form by manipulating the soul energy that gave shape to the condensed Blood rule.
"Despite its limitations, that skill is a perfect cheat for the Basic circulation method. With this skill, I should be able to refine my soul energy to the required purity within two or three weeks. If my realm were higher, I could have achieved it faster." Cortney, despite having the apparent advantage that others practicing the Basic Circulation method did not have, did not seem to be satisfied. Instead, she sighed in dismay because she could not use the skill to its fullest due to her low realm.
"Don't get me wrong. I am grateful to use this skill as a cheat, but I wanted to form my ego gem as soon as possible and feel the world and the rules in it. I can't wait to feel the power you and Corey displayed in the tournament." Cortney explained how the wait for gaining new power had left her restless.
"Don't worry. I have a solution for that." Bloodette seemed to have thought of a way to help Cortney.
"How do you plan to help me?" Cortney asked skeptically. Having been friends with Bloodette for a long time. She knows her friend is not quite dependable.
"Trust me. I can help. Just do not resist. 'Blood Possession.'" Without giving much explanation as to what she was up to, Bloodette turned into a blob of blood and swallowed Cortney.
The blob of blood having swallowed Cortney started to shrink. Pretty soon, the Cortney who had been swallowed began to become visible as the blood of the blood blob was gushing into Cortney through her holes of eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
After a disgusting 15 seconds of the display, the blood blob had moved entirely into Cortney's body, and many visible physical changes had occurred to Cortney's body as her pale white skin had turned red and the sclera of her eyes had turned black while her pupils had turned blood red.
"Hello, Wyatt! It's me, Bloodette." The newly morphed Cortney spoke with Bloodette's voice creeping the hell out of me.
"Hi, Bloodette. What happened to Cortney?" Forcing my mind not to reach the obvious conclusion one would get by seeing what Bloodette did to Cortney, I greeted Bloodette back and asked about Cortney. Hopefully, she is fine.
"Cortney is no more. I ate her." Bloodette replied suspiciously.
"Don't kid around Bloodette. I know that the Soul pact Card will not allow you to harm Cortney." I did not fall prey to Bloodette's prank as I knew it was impossible for her to harm Cortney. Not because of the relationship between them but because of the contract between them. As long as that exists, the World will never allow Bloodette to harm Cortney.
"I told you he is too smart for such silly pranks." This time the red-skinned Cortney spoke in her original voice. Helping me understand that both the consciousness of Cortney and Bloodette are awake and present in One body thanks to Bloodette's possession skill.
"What next, Bloodette? There should be a reason you possessed Cortney." I questioned Bloodette about her plan.
"Now I superimpose my Soul energy manipulation skill with the skill Cortney copied from me and help her refine her soul energy. My skill is of overlord rank(AA-Rank), and Cortney's skill is of the Card soldier realm(D-rank). Together, we can refine Cortney's soul energy to the required purity in no time. Now let's get to work." Bloodette explained how she would use her high-ranking soul energy manipulation skill to help Cortney refine her soul energy. Done with the explanation, the red-skinned Cortney sat in the lotus position and began operating the basic circulation method.
