《The Rise Of A Porter 》Chapter 41: Rank Advancement Quest (3): Bloodmage
Advertisement
"It will take two hours for the Assembly kit to get forged, it'll be better if I buy another knowledge from the shop and gain a third subclass for the advancement quest."
Still lost in his thoughts, Arnold opened the [shop] and started going through the knowledges once again. He was looking for a class that would help to upgrade his creationist abilities. But sadly the [shop] didn't had any knowledge that would help him accomplish this task.
"Tsk. Looks like creationist would be a money consuming class for now." Arnold shook his head, "If I can't find another subclass to help my creationist abilities, I think I should get a subclass that would enhance my combat capabilities. Having couple of more skills and abilities wouldn't be a bad idea. Let's see... how about the [BLOODMAGE]?"
_________________
[BLOODMAGE] : The basic knowledge required by [Mages] who wish to enhance their combat capabilities which can be upgraded over time. This subclass of [Mages] is known for its destructive and bloody nature. The power of this subclass increases by spilling more and more blood of your enemies. Buying this knowledge also unlocks the abilities [BLOOD NECROMANCY] using this skill would also take a bit of your HP so use it in moderation.
[BLOOD NECROMANCY] : (Active ability) Basic ability for [Bloodmage] subclass. This ability allows the user to capture a target's abilities by using the it's blood. You'll require a [Blood rune] to extract an ability from the target's blood. One [Blood rune] can only be used once. The number of skills and abilities that would get extracted depends on the level of ability and the amount of target's blood used. If you use this skill, You won't be able to use any type of HP potion for the next 3 hours to recover your lost HP.

REMARK : Only your summons and automatons can use the blood runes to permanently gain these abilities. Using the [Blood rune] on yourself would not have any effect and the [Blood rune] would get destroyed.
[ Rank : S ]
[HP cost : 300/Usage]
Price : 10 [basic beast] crystals.
[The amount would be automatically deducted from your inventory after purchase]
_________________
The subclass was very useful indeed but then it was shrouded in mystery as well. Arnold really liked the [BLOOD NECROMANCY] skill, it essentially meant that if he had sufficient amount of blood, he could technically transform his summons and automatons into one of his enemies or allies but he'd have to do it secretly as he doubted anyone would be pleased know that he was going around copying their abilities, not to mention he would have to obtain their blood first. The other drawback was that it would cost him his own HP to use this ability but the cost wasn't much. It should be alright if he used it in moderation as the system had told him to.
"Would this work with a monsters and dungeon bosses though? It should, after all they have abilities as well as blood."
Arnold thought about this for a little while longer and then decided to buy the knowledge.

"Since there's still time for the Assembly kit to be forged, let's see what a [Blood rune] looks like, but can I simultaneously Forge two things?"

You can forge up to three items simultaneously.

"If you really want to help me system-sama, then could you get rid of the advancement quests for me?" Arnold laughed.
There was no response from the system, but Arnold pretty much expected this. The system never responded to any of his weird requests because if it did, then Arnold would already be the world's strongest warrior.
Arnold opened the [Forge] tab and selected the [Blood Rune] blueprint.

• 10 [basic beast] crystals

"That's pretty fast..." Arnold smiled.
Twenty seconds passed in a flash and soon Arnold had a grey stone in his hands. The stone had blood red engravings on it that were written in a weird language which Arnold didn't knew. He used his [PROBE] skill on it.

As Arnold read through the description, a weird idea popped up in his mind.
"I wonder what type of ability would be generated from my blood?" He mumbled.

Fate of Souls
Nineteen-year-old Carter Elm awakens one morning with the arrival of the System, which shuts down modern technology and brings with it magic and beasts. With a desire to use magic, Carter begins learning it, soon setting off to enter the nearby Dungeon to complete a Quest. There, Carter meets Lucas, a wounded young man with an interest in alchemy. Together, they train to conquer the Dungeon they're trapped inside, developing a deep bond of friendship and more. When they finally manage to leave the Dungeon, the world is a changed place. Most of the population has died and survivors have banded together to form new settlements and societies. Carter and Lucas settle in to the new ways of the world, becoming adventurers like many others to protect their home and hunt what's needed. Occasionally, they even find time to go on an adventure of their own or just sit back and relax for a little while. There will be: wolfboys, catboys, fairy boys, and more, and there might even a harem of them. I haven't decided for sure if there's a harem yet or not, but I've put the tag on because it's not outside of the realm of possibility. There is also a Level reset mechanic that will come into play. This is not an OP powerfantasy. While the MC will grow strong, he won't become ridiculously powerful for an adventurer and will meet others at or above his own level of might from time to time. There will be times he struggles, fails, or needs to retreat. There is no posting schedule. Chapters will go up when I post them.

Escape
Nathaniel has used what money he had to buy a VR cocoon and to pay off the next few months' worth of bills. He has two ways to move forward in life- to find a new job, or to hope that he can make enough money playing Final Escape to feed his meager, human body. He has rolled randomly, as only a fool would do, and finds himself playing a Kobold magus who wields the power of life itself. Hopefully, his role-playing is entertaining enough to generate revenue, because the game is changing his real self... or else, his real self is changing the human-shaped shell he used to wear.

Wow. Soooooo original Marina. Peter taking a field trip to the Avenger's Compound? That's never been done before. If you're reading this, you've probably read other Peter fics. So, you get the gist. What's different about this fic is it's a reader insert! Now I've messed up the timeline A LOT (Barry Allen who?) with this. Aunt May let Peter live in the compound so she could travel the world like she's always wanted to. But (Y/n) and Peter both go to Midtown High. It'll make sense.... eventually.
