Scarlet
It only takes a few minutes for to reach my suite, and I imdiately head towards my room afterwards before sitting on my bed.
So how do I ascend?
I would recomnd taking your magi-tech armor off and maybe wearing sothing you wouldnt mind getting dirty, Tar says, making my eyes narrow at that. And not sitting on your bed.
Okay
I deactivate my magi-tech armor, leading to sitting on my bed wearing a regular shirt, black and red jacket, and black pants. Then I get up and go to my closet to change. Only to pause as I rember the clean skill.
So things are too filthy to clean with the skill, Tar suddenly says when he sees turn around to go sit on the ground sowhere. So I once again turn around and continue heading to my closet.
Sothing I wouldnt mind getting dirty I dont really have any swimsuits, so I guess Ill just go with my old workout outfit from before I beca a Guardian of a sports bra and shorts. Sothing I would only wear using my own personal workout equipnt, and not a gym.
I quickly go to change before coming back to my room and pausing.
If I really am going to make sothing that dirty, then do I really want to do this in my room where Ill be sleeping?
With that thought in mind, I decide to go sowhere else to do this. To the bath which I almost never use thanks to the clean skill.
A rather large and wide open bath at that. Quite luxurious.
I lie down in it before asking out loud, So how do I start the ascension process?
Without Tar even getting the chance to answer , the Systems voice suddenly registers in my head.
[You have completed all the requirents to reach Class II. Would you like to ascend?]
Yes, I would, I state out loud in response to the System.
[Confirmation received. Ascension to Class II will now begin.]
Then nothing happens.
I stare up at the ceiling from my spot awkwardly lying in my empty bath for a few seconds before I open my mouth to speak, only for a burning pain to suddenly flare up all throughout my entire body. And at the sa ti, I feel a very similar feeling but also quite different at the sa ti as when I first awakened as a half demon return to . My vision suddenly begins to shift between a red tinted vision and regular vision over and over again, I feel my hearts begin beating faster and faster, and extre pain radiates from my head, particularly in two different places. Behind and around my eyes, and around where my human ears are.
Im sorry, but I cant help you this ti, I hear Tars voice through the fog of pain in my mind. Not like I did the last ti.
The pain suddenly spikes, and Im left screaming on the ground as I feel so sort of liquid leave the pores of my skin all over my entire body. And through the haze of pain, through the fading and reappearing red tint in my vision, I can see that the liquid is blood mixed with so sort of black substance.
The black liquid are all of the impurities in your body that the ascension is removing, including the ones left behind by the burning of your human genes, Tars voice echoes in my head, not helping with the pain at all. Ill stay quiet.
Ti passes, and the pain only grows worse and worse. But no matter how bad it gets, its as if its simply impossible for to fall unconscious during this process. A damned cruel fact that is.
At so point the pain around my eyes begins to fade a little, but at the sa ti, a vicious pain surfaces around the very center of my torso, along with another one around my fingernails. And after a few seconds of this pain, I can begin to see black claws forcing their way out of my fingers, ripping my fingernails off in the process and making my screaming go up an octave.
Fortunately that part of the pain only lasts for the brief ti my claws ca in. And then the claws suddenly transform into regular fingernails again as if they had never appeared in the first place.
But the pain at my core continues burning at for a while, anwhile I can see a bright crimson light coming from my eyes reflecting off of the mirror in the bathroom.
Then all at once, the pain vanishes, leaving slumping in the bath feeling half dead while covered in my own blood and according to Tar, impurities.
Without an ounce of hesitation, I imdiately use pain diffusion to get rid of the lingering soreness and discomfort Im feeling despite the pain being gone. Because at so point the skill started letting remove other feelings aside from just pain. Like regular discomfort, and even stress.
Which cos in very handy right now.
Ascension complete.
User is now Class II.
No more pain then?
No more pain, Tar says in a comforting manner.
I just nod my head, not really wanting to talk about that experience again.
I would like to say that it gets better, but that would be lying, Tar says while floating above and looking down at my clothes. To be blunt, it actually gets worse. And I would recomnd burning those clothes.
Its at that point that I notice the rank sll. An absolutely putrid stench that has my nose scrunching up and imdiately jumping out of the bath, only to realize that that didnt do much good. Seeing as Im covered in the stuff too, with my clothes soaked in it.
Damnit. At least new clothes arent a problem. Actually, I have plenty already.
And these System ssages can wait till I get cleaned. Because I am not reading them like this.
I wouldnt be surprised if there was so sort of cleaning chemical in the bathroom here ant for ascensions, considering how luxurious this place is, Tar randomly comnts, making my mouth open for a second, only to close again imdiately when I feel so of that gunk get into it, almost making vomit imdiately.
Oh, and you might want to look into the mirror, Tar suddenly says, reminding that I should be 62.5% blood lycan now and only 37.5% human. So I turn my head to look at the mirror, only to not really notice much different.
Until Tar floats over to my head and points at the side of it, where I finally notice sothing missing.
I dont have human ears anymore.
