My goal was to complete the Blood Artillery Stage by the end of the day. So far, I had spent an hour perfecting blood release and blood withdrawal. The next step was manipulating the blood once it was outside the body.
Shikasa walked me through the gradual process of basic external manipulation mastery. We began with the most obvious, keeping the blood liquid and viable for manipulation in the air.
This required constant agitation. Basically, I had to make the blood vibrate to avoid settling and solidification. The faster and smaller the vibration, the easier it is to maintain a liquid form and maintain the shape of the construct.
So we worked toward creating constant micro vibrations in the blood. That took a few minutes. We started with the easiest construct possible. A droplet of blood. Once I had mastered that, we moved on to multiple droplets.
