Blood Assimilation

[Don't worry, I did. You were so insistent back then, that If I don't you might force it in on me... anyway I am currently busy right now, I am helping my classmate with something.]

[ Oh~ Who is that Jiang Chen? Is that your girlfriend?]  A female voice suddenly resounded on the other end.

[No! What are you talking about?] Jiang Chen quickly refuted.

[Hehe… I was just joking. There is no way a nerd like you will be able to find a girlfriend.] The female voice seemed to be teasing Jiang Chen judging by their playful voice.

[Tsk, as if you're one to talk, do you think any guy will fall for someone like you?] Jiang asked in return. 

[Huh?] The female's surprised voice resounded.

"Oi, Oi, I am still here bro, what are you guys doing—  wait, is that a girl you are talking to? Bro, when did you have a girl friend?" Randy suddenly asked in astonishment.

[What are you also talking about, Randy? You should know better than anyone that I don't have a girlfriend.]

"Huh? No, I mean a friend that is a girl bro, what do you think I meant… I even slowed down the syllables and yet you still got confused. Forget it, just transfer the money over after taking your share of it." Randy said to him as he continued walking towards the gate of the academy.

[Alright, I will transfer it now. Wait for a moment]

[And done, did you receive it yet?]

"Ah, I just received it. Alright, take care and take your time with your girlfriend, hehe." Randy said in a playful tone.

[You—] Jiang Chen shouted.

Du~

However, Randy immediately cut the line to his smart bracelet as he revealed a smirk on his face at this moment and then continued walking towards the gate in quicken steps this time. 

Very soon, Randy walked through the academy gates as he made his way towards a certain direction.

One might be wondering why he was heading in a different direction from his house, but right now, Randy was not simply taking a stroll in the city or anything like that. 

He was now heading the magic shop in the Sky Rise City.

Fortunately, the magic shop was not that far away from the direction of Sky Rise Academy, his school and so, Randy decided to walk towards the magic shop instead of taking a cab like he did when he went to the awakening center the other day. 

There were many branch shops of many different professions around the vicinity surrounding the Sky Rise Academy and due to that, students could very easily procure different techniques or spells pertaining to their class or ability in general. 

At this point, Randy continued to walk along the streets with a pondering expression. 

He was currently thinking about whether he should visit a technique shop, specifically a martial arts or cultivation store instead of a magic shop where he could only acquire magic spells. 

The reason for this was because he was currently lacking a certain quality as a warrior. And that was his lack of movement techniques or footwork techniques during combat, which could be detrimental in the future if he does not have at least a proper foundation. 

He may have learned some basic movement techniques in the past, but those cannot be compared to the profound techniques and thus, this time, he was really compelled to at least buy one of those profound movement or footwork techniques. 

So far, he had been relying on the Gale Riding Skill during the virtual combat, however, in the real world, he could not use the Gale Riding skill as much as he wanted since he had to enter his assimilated state, meaning his transformed state in order to activate the skill. 

And besides, he could afford to spend money this time, after all, he had already received the bounty reward from the female police officer, Hong Mingyue, and coupled that with the amount of money that he had just received from Jiang Chen after he had sold the beast cores and carcasses of the mutated beasts that he had hunted in the Beast Forest during the weekend. 

With that thought in mind, he immediately raised his arm, propping his smart bracelet up in front of himself. After that, he tapped the bracelet and selected the contact list, then selected his mom's contact.

He tapped on it and began to type something on the projected screen, and after a while, he put his arm down. 

Just now, he had already informed his mother of him not coming home early today because he had to go somewhere to buy something with his saved up money. 

Although it was a lie about him using his saved up money, nonetheless it was indeed true that he had saved up money, just that right now, he was using a different kind of money instead. 

He remembered that when he was a kid, he used to save up some of his allowances whenever his parents gave him money, this was something that both he and Emilia partake in as they decided that they would save up enough money to buy whatever they want when they grow up… 

For some reason, at this moment, Randy suddenly recalled what happened earlier during the practical training class. 

At the time, as Emilia was looking at him, Randy could also sense her gaze on him. At that moment, he thought something suspicious was spying on him, but after glancing at the direction the gaze was coming from and noticing that it was Emilia at the corner of his eyes, he only sighed and then drew his attention away from her.

At that point, Randy also chose to ignore her too, when he noticed that she suddenly turned away from him. 

He had no idea what she was thinking about, but he could feel that the things that happened between them were not as simple as they may appear on the surface, especially how she suddenly started ignoring him in the academy when she was not like that even when she knew that he had not awakened his ability. 

However, he could not afford to think about these kinds of things right now.. What he needed to do right now, was to get his hand on a magic spell, master it and then proceed to break through to the next realm of his magician realm.
