"So I got that one point in agility and the rest of the stats remain the same." Ben looked at the status screen while flexing his body. "Sigh... it's been a while since I saw those numbers increase. At least I need to level up to level 5."

"By the way system, why is my magic power 0? Isn't there any way to increase it?" Ben pondered, thinking about the usage of this magic thing he had seen the past two days.

«{0 magic power is just a simple indication that you don't possess any magic at all Ben. As for how you can get it, yes there is a way.}»

"There is? Then what are you waiting for, spit it out already." Ben felt a little excitement, it was the first time in a while, that he almost forgot the feeling of becoming stronger.

«{ Magic will play a big part in our plan to fix the Reincarnation System and stabilize the universe. To know about magic, we need to understand what is magic first.}»

"Okay, I am all ears." Ben sat down crossed legs, his attention fixed on the system's message.

«{ To explain magic for you to understand, Let's go with the 'Law of Conservation of Energy'. In other words, energy, which is magic here can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only change from one form to another form.}»

"Science was the last thing I used when thinking about magic...but carry on," Ben remarked, a little disappointed by the sudden physics class.

«{ In basics, magic is the purest kind of energy which all other energy is derived from. Whether it is heat, light, electricity or anything...}»

«{ Magic is the very fundamental of the universe, in basically it exists in all universes, by different names or usages. But what makes our universe special is that the living beings here have evolved in a way so they can store this magic energy in their body. }»

"Oh, I see. It's something like, if your body is slowly exposed to poison then your body will slowly adapt to that poison. And for other people, your blood will become poisonous itself." Ben exclaimed he was a straight-A student in his school.

«{ Exactly Ben, as for your previous world, the magic was referred to as RADIATION }»

"Okay, so how do I store this magic in my body?" Ben asked, getting straight to the main point.

«{ To be able to use magic, Ben. You need to go through awakening, which will need at least 100 magic points.}»

«{ Normally human kids go to awakening when they are 3 years old. But since you are a Vampire...which is closely related to demons and undead. You need to use external sources to gain magic.}»

"Okay, enough with long explanations. Just tell me what I need to do to gain magic."

"It's 25 words or less." Ben almost shouted, annoyed by the system's theoretical lecture. After all, cheating skills played a big part in his straight-A scores in high school.

┌ Collect basic tier beast crystals or higher.

[Reward: ???] [ Punishment: None ]

"So basically, I need to kill some monsters (-_-)." Ben was dumbfounded, if gaining magic was this simple, the system could have said it from the very beginning.

"Well then if this is what it needs to be, I know exactly where to find some prey." Ben grinned as he stood up and jumped over the top of the outpost, to have a better look at the village. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭．𝑛𝘦𝘵

«Blood Vision»

Ben activated his passive skill and soon the world around him was coloured in black white and red. He looked at one side of the village, where there were the ruins of the previous city and a sharp smile appeared on his face.

-Activate Skill: Wind walk-

Ben jumped off the outpost tower, as two feather-like silver lines appeared on his Windborn shoes. In the next second, he dashed towards the village ruins like a wild cat running towards its prey.

His heartbeat sped with excitement, a natural feeling he was getting an Exhilaration of the fight as he locked on a few beast energy with his crimson glowing red eyes. Ben's sprinting speed was easily 40km/hr, yet his steps were light, barely making any sound as he passed.

With a feat, a normal human can barely think of achieving, Ben was running toward his target like a tiger running towards a deer.

With a swift motion, he unsheathed the 'Grass Cutter' blade from his back, which he picked up from Ray's warehouse along with the leather armor. He commanded the system to merge the Inferno Stringer in the Basic Tear Sword.

Ben jumped over the ruined buildings, without any slowdown in his speed, the sword in his hand slowly turned red hot, but wasn't covered in flames like his earlier weapons. Maybe it was the limit of the inferno stringer.

In the ruins of the city, a group of few basic tier wolves was sleeping in a circle, when suddenly one of the olives noticed a slight presence. He raised his head, searching for his enemy, but before he could perceive anything, a metallic sound reverberated through the air, as a burning feeling covered its neck.

Ben was already standing on the other side of the circle, a cold smile covered his face as the wolf's head fell on the ground, and blood gushed out of its body like a shower.

The gushing noise was enough to wake up the whole group of the wolf, realising what happened to their partner they looked at the ominous figure with a red sword in his hand. Despite being one of the top predators in the food chain, there was this instinct telling them.

"RUN OR DIE"
