Chapter 35: Good Side Town
"Yes, but these are meant to work with our bodies. I would have liked to engrave it directly into our skin, but I lack the proper tools, so we will use the pelts of the demons. How high is your energy pool?"
While sharing information about your stats could easily be used against you, the young man and little cat wholly trusted each other, so they did not hesitate before speaking.
"My energy pool is already at 5.1."
Vlad was a little surprised, as Jormungandr’s energy pool was impressively high. It should be around five times higher than a normal Mage, showing just how important a mighty race and bloodline were in the new world order.
"That will be enough. I will connect your rune directly to your energy pool. I have many types in my mind, but due to my materials and abilities, I can only make a few basic Rank 1 Runes."
Not wanting to waste time, Vlad took several pelts from his space ring and began to engrave the runes on them.
These types of runes were much more complicated than the ones he built in the warehouse, so he failed multiple times. Luckily, there was a lot of skin and blood. Every time he failed, he got a little closer, and his skills improved.

Three days after the Abyssal Consumption Rune was created, a group emerged from the fortress. Leading the force was the young Lieutenant Mitchel. Along with him were thirty-five soldiers, twenty-five Warriors, and ten Mages.
A small yellow cat with leather armor was on the young Lieutenant’s shoulder. The leather armor was impressive, but what truly drew the soldier’s attention were the runes engraved in it.
