n“Rezen, although I don’t think that you are lying, it’s still hard to believe that you could mitigate the side effects. I can’t easily let my son become a Tattoo Warrior without a guarantee. I hope you can understand me” Fierce Fire said in a very polite tone

nIn the past, when he talked with Rezen he uses neither an arrogant nor submissive tone. But now, although he wasn’t completely submissive, his tone still lean to that a bit

nAs for the reason? There were two. The first one is Rezen’s strenght. He can defeat and even kill a mage at the 4th fusion rank

nThe past Rezen that was only an ungraded or 1st fusion rank mage is completely different

nOf course, since Fierce Fire is one rank stronger, Rezen’s strength is not enough for this much change in attitude

nThe core reason was that Fierce Fire is wary of Rezen’s background. After all, who could easily grow a mage at Rezen’s level in a short period of time?

nRezen’s background has a hundred percent chance of being stronger than the Ceres Family considering that although they have several mages at the 5th fusion rank, they don’t have one at the 6th fusion rank

n“Uncle, I understand. But as you might already know, I’m also a Tattoo Warrior. It should be easy for you to check whether my body is contaminated by elemental energies, right?”

nEvery time a Tattoo Warrior activated their Mystic Tattoos, their bodies would be filled with the power of the elements unlike mages that uses magic circles as a medium of their powers

nAs such, over time, their bodies were contaminated and if the contamination is severe, their bodies might even explode

nRezen let Fierce Fire inspect his body and as expected, the latter didn’t sense any elemental contamination on Rezen’s body

nNot to mention contamination, Rezen was incredibly healthy from inside and out. His skin was really smooth as if he has the smooth skin of a baby.

n“Indeed, your body is not contaminated. That’s great” Fierce Fire said in relief

nHe knew his son very well. Maze is highly ambitious and even reaching the legendary 7th rank is not his end goal

nFierce Fire knew how hard it was to reach the 6th fusion rank much less the legendary 7th rank

nAs much as he loves his son, he doesn’t think that Maze has a high chance of reaching the 7th rank

nMaze with the support of the Ceres Family could possibly reach the 5th fusion rank. Advancing to the next rank and reaching the peak of the ‘mortal world’ maybe already impossible for him

nIf Maze can become both a Tattoo Warrior and a Mage then that would increase his strength by a large margin

nHe could become stronger than Fierce Fire and lead the family to greater heights

n“For now, I’ll help Maze become a Tattoo Warrior at the 1st rank. After that, you can contact me when his body is refined to upgrade his Tattoo” Rezen said

nIt was easy to create a Tattoo Warrior but there was still the requirement of the refined physique

n“Alright, thank you”

nRezen asked for private space and Fierce Fire went out of the room. After that, Rezen even blindfolded Maze to maintain a level of secrecy

nRezen waved his hand and his Spirit Plant Essence Condenser appeared. He poured in some seeds from Thorny Sunflowers

n0)ᴠʟ The Thorny Sunflower is a Spirit Plant that can refine the whole body. It is also what Rezen and his subordinates use to refine their bodies

n“A-are you… u-using a blender?” The blindfolded Maze can’t help but ask since just like ordinary blenders, Rezen’s treasure also emits a loud sound for every use

n“Cough… cough… w-why would I use a blender? D-don’t mind it, this is a necessary preparation” Rezen said awkwardly

nIt’s not his fault that such a great treasure has such a shameful appearance, alright?

nAfter the sunflower seeds turned into a smoothie, Rezen retrieved a drinking glass and poured the content inside

nFortunately, the smoothie… no, the condensed essence of the Spirit Plant Essence Condenser was very great. It can be directly absorbed by the person without the risk of exploding and dying

nStill, the foundation would be shaky if a mage improves too fast. That part is not the problem with the Spirit Plants anymore but the result of advancing too fast

nFortunately, a single recovery pill would do the trick. His recovery pills were too magical that Rezen felt like even if he lost the system, as long as he has his recovery pills, he would still have the chance of reaching the top of this world

nRezen handed the drinking glass to Maze that sniffed it

n“What’s this? A smoothie? I thought that you weren’t using a blender?” Maze asks in doubt

nA normal blended sunflower seed would turn into a powder but definitely not with the use of Rezen’s treasure

nNot only would the spirit plants’ essence be condensed, the resulting liquid even have great taste and scent, completely unlike other herbals medicines with horrible taste

n“J-just drink it or I’ll pinch your throat” Rezen said and Maze can only drink the glass’s content

n“Ah?!” Maze exclaimed in surprise. He can feel a warm current spreading to his body from his stomach

nThis warm current was being absorbed by his cells to refine themselves. It was an extremely pleasurable process as Maze can feel his strength rising

nOf course, the increase in physical strength wasn’t that much but the sensation of refining one’s body would give that kind of illusion

nAfter Maze’s body was refined, Rezen slapped a recovery pill into his mouth before ordering him to strip his clothes

nSince Maze turns out to be a simpleton that only pursues power, he didn’t question Rezen after experiencing the effects of the ‘smoothie’

nSix was already on standby and after Maze stripped all of his clothes, he started the process

nSix started by biting his thumb and he drew a circular tattoo on Maze’s stomach before expanding the tattoo’s scope

nSoon, Maze’s whole body was filled with Tattoos and he heard Six’s voice in his ears

n“Spread your mana to the tattoos” Six ordered and Maze did as he was told

nSoon, Maze’s tattoos lit up starting from his stomach where his elixir field is located

nAt first, the tattoos lit up with a blue color, the color of pure mana before it changed into an electric blue color

nMaze is a lightning-type mage and seems like the element he obtained after becoming a Tattoo Warrior is also the same

nSoon, Maze’s transformation finishes and he can’t help but exclaim. “Such power…”

nMaze is already a 2nd fusion rank mage and his Tattoo is still only at the 1st rank. But even then, the increase in power that he has was not negligible

nIn this world, ungraded to 2nd fusion rank mages defeating one rank higher than them is a sign of talent but if a 3rd fusion or 4th fusion rank mage can defeat mages one rank higher than them, they would be considered monstrous geniuses

nThis was all because mages at the 3rd fusion rank and below are still greatly limited

nWith Maze’s physique after becoming a 1st rank Tattoo Warrior, he could definitely easily defeat mages at the same rank as his mage path easily

nThis is because mages mostly use a spell to block another spell or use a spell to dodge another spell

nHowever, to the Maze right now, he could easily dodge spells just using his physique alone

nThat gave him an overwhelming advantage. If he managed to reach his enemy then with the human’s fragile body, a single punch alone would do the job

nNo doubt that Maze can defeat several of the past him right now and that’s just considering that he is only a 1st rank Tattoo Warrior

nIf his Tattoo Warrior rank advance then…

nJust thinking about it already excites him and Maze can’t wait to further refine his physique

n“Big brother, this is awesome!” Maze said happily and Rezen was also smiling since he earned a bit of money from this

n“Alright, go wear your clothes again and after that please let me borrow this room, I also have to help my friend” Rezen said

nSince Neil is bullied by another mage then Rezen would simply turn him into a Tattoo Warrior

nEven if Neil is pretty average, Rezen doesn’t think that he would be defeated by a 1st fusion rank mage again

nAfter all, Rezen planned on directly promoting Neil into a 3rd rank Tattoo Warrior

nIt was a petty and devious plan since Neil would be bullying a person two ranks below him but so what?

nPeople like Neil and Rezen only want to live in peace while slowly increasing their power, do they deserve to be bullied by other people just simply because their egos were hurt?

nThat’s just their ego, would they die because of it considering that they weren’t necessarily badmouthed by Neil?

n
