My Triling System

31 Chapter 31: Unblooded Shadow Magic

The pill that Bryce consumed grant him a new state of mind. He became stronger than before and was given a chance to start a new life but that didn’t change the fact that he’s unable to learn any magic and he couldn’t parry away attacks and defend himself from being attacked anytime he faces an opponent with an high martial arts skill and swordmanship skill. Kevin was someone skilled in an hand to hand fight, during his stay with the wizard who he calls his father, he learned how to fight with fists and weapons and that made him skillful. He was able to throw feints at opponents and he managed to defeat four of the wizard’s disciples in martial arts even though they weren’t going easy on him.

It was true that Kevin could throw feints at opponents, making them think he’s about to attack a point, which is a fake and would punch them somewhere else. But on Bryce’s case, he didn’t threw any feint at him and it was a surprise to Kevin that even though the attack that came to Bryce was slow and could be easily avoided, he failed to dodge or defend himself from being hit.

It would have been worst than this if he hadn’t think of a way to get stronger as he was presently. He went to a black market where artifacts and other lost magical items were sold and had managed to purchase a ring which was said by the seller to be a strong magical item that was used by the past leaders of the two magical races. He believed the seller’s story and according to what he heard, the ring really did wonders in him. He was able to learn a magic after all the years he spent being ridiculed and insulted.

Just as Bryce started regaining the posture of himself, he could feel the ring reacting to the anger in him, he had immediately gave Kevin a punch of his own.

“Arghh!” Kevin groaned in pain as he coughed out nothing.

The attack from Bryce was unexpectedly fast and strong that he could feel the bones of his body crack as he was hit in the stomach. Within an instant, his stomach had started aching and he had started feeling pain all over his body. But he was still conscious and could still see the elf that was standing in front of him clearly. He tried to endure the pain as he glanced at the elf that was in front of him.

He planned to attack Bryce again. He’s not trained to retreat even when at the point of dying.

Hopefully, Kevin stood his ground as a soothing energetic feeling started sipping into his body. The wound he had was taking too long to heal and he couldn’t understand why. But he was feeling a little better, so he stood well to attack the elf in front of him.

.....

That was when Kevin noticed that something was wrong with the opponent he was fighting. Bryce had his hands clenching tight at his stomach, his brows furrowed in pain and his eyes had turned red suddenly. It was obvious that Bryce was in pain after hitting kevin. It wasn’t even where Kevin had punched him that was paining him. Bryce was in a strong pain, even the system had it confirmed.

In Bryce’s hand was a golden ring similar to the one he saw back at his father’s workshop. But he wasn’t able to take a good look at the ring before it disappeared and became a system inside his mind. Perhaps this ring was also a system, will it grant him another system or what? Kevin was curious to know what this ring was.

He ignored the elf that was groaning in pain and gently removed the ring from his hands. Just at that moment, Kevin could feel a surge of energy enter his body as he touched the golden ring.

Kevin glanced at the ring in his hands and the system had immediately messaged him.

Kevin was still thinking of taking care of some matters that kept on lurking him. The system messages.

Kevin shook in fear as read the system message that was shown to him, he couldn’t explain how he’s feeling right now. He felt a shiver ran down his spine and he felt like he needed to do what the system bids him at all cost.

His mind was flooded with lots of question but unfortunately there was no one who could answer him at the moment.

He was kept puzzled at the requests and assignments the system was giving him. Since the time he had took the ring from Bryce, he noticed that he’s not feeling any more pain in his body and same could be said for Bryce although he’s left to being the weak guy he has been for the most part of his life.
