Chereads / Fourth Lord With The Stone / Chapter 7 - Flight at night

Chapter 7 - Flight at night

The next day I repeated my yesterday routine. Using the life vision I found out that no one was following me. Which just means that yesterday I freaked out and wasted a lot of time traveling.

This time I found a lone homeless man in an alley. It was still evening but I was still able to drink blood without anyone seeing me thanks to life vision.

This time the white familiar came forward for changing.

"You are the biggest one here in size so I thought your blood demand will be higher."

The white one smiled.

"Haha, size does not mean I have the most appetite."

'I mean it clearly does.'

"I can also no longer wait to get the stone's energy. He has been talking constantly since yesterday about how good it is."

I nodded and put my hand on him.

It looks like that yellow one has been talking about the stone's energy constantly to the others.

Just like before the white one transformed into its ethereal version and the information about spells got into my brain.

Become Ethereal: Basically invisibility

Air control: Able to control air

I immediately left the inner space and tried the spells.

I used invisibility on me and imbued it with the power of stone.

After some experimentation I found out that the invisibility only effects the vision. The sound will be heard by others. But with stone it can make my body soundless.

It also hides any presence of my body so the strong people with high instincts can also not perceive me.

I can even go through walls.

After testing this one I moved onto the air control.

This spell is completely broken just like the healing from before.

With this I can control air around me. Using air as an attack, using it to move or fly, using it to create vacuum anywhere and anything as long as I can imagine it, it will happen.

Satisfied I healed the homeless man into a 20-year-old guy and left the scene.

'Since he gave me such strong powers I should treat him properly.'

I got home and shared an everyday dinner with Aria and went to my room.

When it was about midnight, I used the life vision to make sure the Aria is sleeping and got out of my bed.

I turned myself into a female with brown hair and eyes. I wore a black hoodie and blue jeans.

I had a brilliant idea while coming home today.

'Why do it in broad daylight when I can do it at midnight.'

I stood in middle of my room and activated invisibility.

Then I imbued my body with air and jumped.

The air pushed me high as my body passed through floor after floor going straight up.

Then I passed through the roof and kept going up.

My heart skipped a beat as I took in the view of this large city with my own eyes.

'I am really flying!'

I thought to myself as I reveled in this feeling of freedom around me.

But this feeling soon came to an end as I started falling to the ground.

Panicking I controlled the air around me to stop my fall and float in the air. But it did not work.

I was bouncing in the air left, right, up, down as my whole body was spinning.

That is when it hit me.

'There is no point in having full control of the air when my own brain cannot decide where it wants to go!'

Helpless I began to fall towards the ground.

My thoughts were only that I want to negate the fall damage while constantly drawing power from the stone.

When my body was just about to hit the roof of nearby apartment building a gust of wind blew and stopped me in the air just a few inches away from the roof.

I slowly cancelled all magic as I sat on the floor heavily panting.

"Holy Shit that was close! It felt like all the blood in my body was too scared to circulate."

My heart was also beating heavily.

Slowly I smirked.

'This is only the beginning. Who knows what I will become capable of in the future.'

I stood up again and casted magic on me again.

I jumped to nearby rooftop with air. The Stone automatically made air gust to negate my fall.

I started jumping from building to building as I searched for prey and a suitable hunting spot.

'Hehe it feels like I am a shadowy vampire searching for prey. Freaking Cool!'

The night went just like that. I ambushed some poor guy in a dark alley then healed him to youth and left the scene.

This happened 3 times. After that I got full. Anymore blood and I think I will explode.

This time 2 familiars responded and accepted the change. The difficulty of blood per familiar is not very much. In a week I will probably be able to transform all of them.

With a gloated belly I jumped rooftop to rooftop.

'Hmmm… I will practice for a while and then go back home.'

At 5 am in the morning.

I reached my apartment and took the stairs. Since I am not very good at pinpointing the location of my jump, I took the door while being invisible.

I was only going to practice for an hour at most but I was having so much fun flying that it took the whole night.

Changing my clothes, I popped into the bed and drifted to sleep.

Peace did not last long as my alarm woke me up at 7 am.

Still sleepy I imbued myself with energy of the stone and got up.

Instantly I felt refreshed.

'The stone is very useful.'

I got up readied myself for another day.

'It is still 3 months till the novel starts but it will only take me a week at most to unlock all my familiars. After that I will spend the time thoroughly practicing and honing my skills so that when novel starts I have absolute advantage.
