Chapter 43：Forcefield Runespell (1/2)
Mack saw the top of the cube. And there was a finger-sized hole there.
The thing is..... Cube material was super hard!
[That's because the material is special and is reinforced with Essence. Just like ...]
”Just like this blast from the rune circuit!!!”
[Yes]
”I should probably name it different. It's not a blast. It's more like a sniper shot”
”Yeap I think I will call it 'shot runespell' for now.”
”Or should I call it Makankosappo? Nahhh that would be offending my few good memories while watching animes with father....”
Mack started to remember his childhood, and the image of his father came to mind.
'Dammed mages! I will make them pay for killing my father. I bet it was them'
Suddenly all the good humor that Mack was having those few hours, because some things were working his way, was ruined when he remembered all that the mages took from him. By force.
He was sure it was them. It was the only possible explanation.
But how they are on Earth without no one noticing? Mack had no clue about that.
~sigh~
”So much to do..... And I'm not even ready for that yet....”
Mack lowered his head and looked at the rune circuit.
It was time to practice another rune circuit until he felt confident enough to carve in his own flesh.
The prices he had to pay to gain power...
Would be returned a thousandfold to the mages.
Remembering the mage's atrocities, Mack's gaze fell on his sword and a crazy idea popped in his head.
”A sword forged with thousands of warlocks lives.....”
”Capable of negating most of the will of all things....”
”And a runespell capable of making a hole in a cube.”
”And me ..... A huge Essence battery. Do you follow me, Arcane?”
[Yes. I think is possible. But is extremely risky]
”Hmm. But it will not work as it is now....”
[Indeed. You will need to alter it a lot and will only be able to test once is fully carved on your body]
”Hmm”
Mack's gaze became serious.
That could be a game-changer for him.....
But only if it worked.
Should he go 'all in'? Mack had doubts. It was not an easy matter to decide. One mistake and he would explode himself.
”Let's think of that later.... I will first check the area circuit.”
Mack moved to the other circuit. He would ponder better if he should risk his like on that bet.
With a more calm mind.
Mack started the same ritual as before, dropping blood on the lines of the circuit.
And a few minutes later he touched the circuit with his left thumb.
~zummmmm~
Mack could hear a faint buzzing sound around him.
It looked like the circuit worked the way he devised and also produced some kind of sound due to air friction.
Mack felt the heavy pressure over his body and a smile bloomed on his face.
It worked.
Mack removed his finger, and the pressure started to decrease bit by bit.
