About an hour later,
Tuck slowly opened his eyes.
By then, the small bottle of the Mountain Bear's blood had been fully digested by him.
He carefully felt the effects of this transformation.
A smile formed at the corner of Tuck's mouth.
"Strength has increased by approximately 40%, physique and stamina by around 60%"
"Indeed, it was a transformation of the flesh."
"Although it didn't have much of an effect on my witchcraft,"
"the increase in strength correspondingly raises the upper limit of my speed when combining my physical body with the Shadow State, as well as my reactive burst."
"Overall, it is a quite satisfactory improvement."
Tuck nodded with satisfaction.
In contrast to Tuck,
Marcus, Banov, and Raymond Corey had consumed more blood and, naturally, their enhancements were stronger than those of Tuck, Priest Honey.
As for Gudale,
As a fundamentalist of the Vegetarian Sect,
he did not intend to consume the bear blood directly.
