Chapter 33: Creating Explosives

When I stared at the fading clump of fire inside of the fox's body, only one thing came to mind. What if I absorb it?

I swiftly pulled the clump of mana that was invisible to a normal persons eye and immediately jumped up to one of the trees to sit down and look at the fire clump that I had collected as my loot. I looked at it finding that the mana signature of the fox was still on it like before, but weaker and depleting in energy. If I were to eat it, I have no idea what would happen but if I were to try a speck of it and go upwards from there i can gradually see the changes or risks it may cause to my body.

I don't know if consuming someone else's mana might be poisonous to me but we'll only have one way to find out I guess.

I shrugged before biting a bit of the clump of mana off and made it go straight to my stomach. I could feel a burning sensation go down my oesophagus and into my stomach where it started to burn violently before breaking down. First, the mana inside my body and outside of my body went through the pores of my body before going towards my belly and breaking the foreign substance down.

I could feel that the mana of the fox was being destroyed by the foreign elements and the element it had infused with and had reacted by lashing outwards just to subside when even that was destroyed by the elements entering my body.

What kind of monster is my body? I'm pretty sure I can eat anything and the energies will break it down no problem. The side effect of this whole breaking down thing is that the elemental energies that had entered my body cant leave so they are just spread with the food into the stream of nutrients, consequently enhancing the strength of my body.

The fire energies started to surge through my body from what I could see. They acted exactly like normal energies so my dumba*s decided to gulp half the thing down in one fell swoop. The pain that ravaged my body after was like nothing I had ever felt in my entire life. As the mana was stronger this time, the surge of mana from the outside was a lot more meaning when the whole elemental digestion had finished, the coursing of mana inside of my body broke down many cells just to fix them right after.

I writhed on the floor when I dropped down from the tree, not because the fall hurt, because my body was slowly being burned from the inside by fire particles just to be healed by the same particles again, strengthening all my muscles, organs and every fibre of tissue within my body that the elements were able to reach.

The pain reminded me of the first time I started to see elemental particles in the air when I was still baby. Right now my body hadn't changed much if you overlook the slimmed down body and the tighter muscles.

My muscles had always become tighter to my skin rather than increasing in size. while they increase in density, the contraction of skin to become tighter around the muscles instead of expanding to increase muscle size made me as strong as a body builder but as nimble as a belle. My body would lift boulders and move flexibly which is a huge plus in my books.

By the time I was able to focus enough to get up, the clump of mana seemed to be mostly dispersed now. Its dispersed mana had been either used to digest or it was breathed in by me with a 17.5% efficiency of absorbance.

Anyway, if I ever find another beast in the wild I have to make sure I'm in a secure location where other animals can't get to me because what I did was as dangerous as it was reckless. On a good note though, my body feels lighter than ever, even without the gravity field making me lighter. My efficiency in fire magic should have increased a bit too right? I'd rather have not gone through all that pain for a little bit more mass on my muscles. *SIGH* I just need to go and wash up now since I'm covered in both blood and sweat, maybe even mud.

I started jumping from branch to branch in the direction of the lake. There would I not only wash up but also practice some fire and water magic. Fire to have an extinguisher right next to me if I ever need it and water because I have a huge puddle to manipulate and use to practice.

When I had finally gotten to the lake, the sun had already risen. The lake reflected the light of the morning sun with vibrancy and shone with a luminous light only rivalled by the sun itself. The leaves sparkled was light rays passed through the droplets of condensed water giving the forest a half orange have blue colour representing the rise of the sun and the fall of the night.

I stopped near the lake to see if there were any beasts in the water or in the area to find nothing so far. Instead of dipping into the lake I took water from it to clean my self up, then I used air magic heated up by fire magic to dry my self up. When I was finally done, I started to conjure some fire spells that I had been thinking about making recently. The first one was a fire bullet that I didn't do at home as to not burn down the entire house down.

I first created a flashpoint within a high concentration of oxygen to create a pale blue flame that would later become the size of half of my body before being compressed to the size of 2 sniper bullets. I then try to let the pressure increase the more Fire Elemental Particles I put into it. It is extremely mana expensive due to the high amount of fire particles I need to control at the same time. I then let go of the compressed energy in a singular trajectory to release something closer to a heat ray than a fire bullet.

I aimed for the water so to as not burn the forest by accident. The moment the bullet went into the water I saw steam coming out just for a huge explosion to take place a second later. A very small portion of the lake was either evaporated or blown into the air. The mist created a rainbow with the rays of the rising sun bouncing off of the small water molecules still in the air.

Damn though, that is some super effective spell. It uses a crap ton of mana but still! Alright if that worked my second experiment should work. I'm going to replenish my mana for a bit before trying it out, If the power of the spell is too much, I don't want to accidently hurt myself.

After around 20 minutes of doing my daily work out that my father had given me to do whenever I had free time. When I replenished most of my mana I went ahead and tried to conjure the spell I had been working on. The first few attempts were quite pathetic to say the least, but the rest was good enough. They weren't how I wanted them to be, since I wanted something strong and over powered but clearly life doesn't work that way.

First I create a flashpoint before conjuring a blue flame with a mixture of both oxygen and hydrogen. I have to make sure they don't touch with an air vacuum partition that would break down when something other than my mana exerts too much force on it. I'll then throw it as far away as I can before allowing fission to take its course making a huge explosion.

The reason I was kind of annoyed was because this spell I made was supposed to be some overpowered hydrogen bomb kind of explosion just for it to be a little less than an air strike that costs me all my mana in one feel swoop making it almost useless. The fact that my body aches at the fact I even used the spell shows how much mana I put into it just to have such an anti-climactic boom.

"Level mountains with a single spell" my muddy ass. Anyone who doesn't know how to use magic the same way as me might as well become a farmer and let go of their pathetic dreams of levelling mountains with a single spell. Let me tell you now, that sh*t is impossible. Maybe one day when I'm like 100 years old I might finally have enough knowledge and mana capacity to even be able to break just the tip of the mountain off. At this rate I might as well become a farmer too!

Well on the bright side, I can make hole in a lake 1.5 miles in radius while also creating huge tidal waves... on a lake. Yeah, I'd say that's pretty cool. Maybe if I get some magical artifacts and items I'll be able to destroy a portion of a mountain by the age of a 100. maybe like 10% of a mountain or an army equivalent of one.

Well anyway, I'll try to replenish my mana in the mean time while waiting for some beasts to come drink from the lake. Its is the morning, I might as well be the shark that grabs them for their stupidity and lack of awareness.

I jumped up to one of the tree branches before looking down waiting for my next meal to come. I wasn't hungry but food would help me replenish mana faster while also refining my body by both spreading the nutrients to all the right places while breaking down and replacing my cells with stronger more Elementally enhanced ones. My body is in no way as strong as a beasts though, rather, it is in the middle of both beasts and normal animals.

I got lucky when fighting the fox, due to its low intelligence I was able to beat it without too much trouble. I doubt that I will be so luck next time but ill take my wins without complaining.

From when the sun started to rise to when it was in the middle of the sky, all did was practice fire magic. I created a fire spear by thinning out a fire and extending it to make a pole, Then I rotated the fire at top speeds which created a sharp tip while also keeping the fire in one place. Then I would launch the spear as far as I can before it would start to lose shape and explode using the mana inside the elemental energies. It wasn't as strong as the Heat ray from earlier but it cost much less mana and allowed me to make up to three stable spears at the same time. The more spears I create the less distance they can go without losing their shape, yet it is a great medium ranged attack the left some versatility due to the fact it doesn't suck me dry of mana.

Anyway, by the time the sun started to fall instead of rise, I had finally tried out everything I wanted giving me some time to hunt before night fall.
