DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 36 Uniqueness
Kyle didn't have a good sleep last night as he kept thinking of the potion that he'll be consuming today. He doesn't have any good experience with all potions that he had ever consumed so his reaction was quite normal.
"Master Heinz… I'm ready." Kyle announced his presence as he entered the laboratory.
There, the man in his late sixties is already waiting for him with suppressed excitement in his eyes. Heinz is the one who was truly looking forward to this day since this last potion will essentially complete the research that he had been doing for the past decades.
"Come here…" Heinz said as he observed the young man closely.
Kyle has met all the requirements that he needed for this final step. He has a special physique that has great resistance against the Darkness Possession. He at least has five spell lights to successfully accommodate the Spell Dispersion in his body and the most important thing was his rationality… Over the past month, Heinz had observed Kyle openly or secretly as he confirmed that aside from his fetish for dead bodies, there was nothing wrong with him as a human being.
This made him realize that Kyle's absorption of the Darkness Possession potion was better than his or even his master's. After all, everyone should have some sort of negative effects after consuming this possession.
Perhaps, it was the fetish he developed but if that was already the negative effect, then that is certainly acceptable.
"Master Heinz, may I know what potion it is this time?" Kyle asked as he looked at the deep purple potion that was already on the table.
The Spirit Enhancement was deep blue in color and the Idle Mind potion was red so he knows that the third is different from the other two.
"Before that, I need to know if you're aware of the negative effects of learning the Dark Arts…"
Kyle nodded as he already read this in the books. "Yes, Master Heinz. However, it also says that as long as you abide by the rules, suffering from the negative effects of practicing dark arts wouldn't be a big deal."
Heinz chuckled at this. He knows something more than what those books are teaching the students. Nevertheless, he didn't explain much and replied with the same line of thought.
"Yes… But I must say that while novices like you wouldn't be too affected by it, it will get stronger the more you learn or the more you use the Dark Arts. It's not something you can avoid as you tread this Arcane Path." Heinz solemnly spoke as he looked into Kyle's eyes.
Kyle was no longer ignorant like before so he wasn't too surprised after hearing this.
It may sound scary but he has already made enough preparations and self-reflection. He already has the Darkness Possession so he can only be eager to tread this path.
"I understand, Master Heinz..." Kyle replied as he wondered why Mr. Heinz decided to talk about this now.
He felt a little baffled at this since these things will be learned in the academy as well. He simply can't find the connection or relation of this matter to the potion he was about to drink.
Luckily, Heinz's next words answered his questions.
"This potion is something you'll never find anywhere. My master, Laurin Schifter, named it the Anti-Corruption Force Potion. Its effects were something all Spellcasters of the Dark Path would want to obtain… However, even if they drink a river of this potion, they will not obtain the uniqueness it contains."
At this point, Heinz paused for a moment before he continued.
"This uniqueness is called Incorruptible Body."
Before Kyle could reply, the old man popped out the cap of the potion bottle and the thick scent of blood wafted throughout the whole room.
Yes, the deep purple potion has the scent of blood.
Then, Heinz showed his familiar creepy smile to Kyle and added. "It'll be a lot easier consuming this now… Your body has already adapted so you shouldn't worry about this potion."
Kyle wryly smiled after hearing this. There was no way he would believe that but he didn't complain. This is his fate if he wanted to be different from the rest of the Dark Arts Spellcasters.
He swiftly summoned his character panel to recall his current attributes. This way, he would see the quantified improvement he'll receive after drinking the potion.
[ Name: Kyle Marshall ]
[ Attributes: Strength 4.38, Agility 4.42, Intelligence 10.28, Vitality 0.50 ]
[ Dark Arts: Spell Dispersion Lv2, Ghost Hand Lv5 ]
[ Available Energy: 243 ]
After taking a deep breath, he accepted the potion and poured all the liquid into his mouth. He swallowed it quickly hoping that the taste wouldn't linger too long.
However, his action was futile as the terrible taste of rust with rich sourness and acidity permeated throughout his whole body…
In just a few seconds, Kyle may not be seeing the changes in his body in his current state but he can tell that the Darkness Possession inside his body is acting up again!
The potion seems to have triggered the Possession that he had consumed before and starting to lose control again!
At this rate, he felt his body exploding similar to when he consumed the Darkness Possession!
"Urghh…" Kyle gritted his teeth as he knelt on the ground.
"Heh heh… You're really suited for this." Heinz commented after seeing his condition.
Apparently, even with this extreme condition, Kyle only had a nosebleed! His internal body may have been messed up, but aside from showing redness in his skin and this nosebleed, he is actually holding up pretty well!
It is much better than Heinz had expected!
