Solo Player Arvin

After absorbing every last bit of mana from the last mana stone that Arvin had, he felt like his body will explode from all this pain. Excessive mana stored inside his heart wanted to get free from these shackles. But Arvin had closed all the possible ways for mana to escape out of his heart.

While Arvin was lost in meditation, the shield that he was sitting on was boiling the water around him. Slowly and steadily the shield was melting down due to the rune formation. The metal that this shield was made of was never meant to be used in rune formation. Loki chose this shield only because it was bulky and fat enough that melting it with rune formation would take enough time for Arvin to finish his breakthrough.

While shield was boiling the water, Arvin's body was also exhibiting strange behavior. It was like his body was made of wax. And now the body is melting away. Arvin's whole face was deforming. His eyes had come out of their sockets as the hole of his eyes socket have become too big. His nose has deformed to such an extent that it looked like someone had punched him over and over again. While his ears were now detached from his face and now we're hanging to with a little piece of ligament of his skin. And Arvin was so lost in meditation that he could not feel any of this

Strangely with all this deformity, no matter how much his body is deformed, he was not able to feel any pain. The most strange about this whole ordeal was, with these deformities a lot of blood should be flowing out of his body. But strangely no blood came out. It was like his body didn't have any blood.

After enduring the pain for about 30 mins or so, Arvin started feeling some changes. Due to overloading his heart with excessive mana, it expanded beyond its normal limit. Due to storing excessive mana the muscles of the heart had expanded beyond their limit. After still holding mana for some time the mana inside the heart started repairing the wear and tear of the muscles. Thus permanently increasing the mana holding capacity of the heart.

So after enduring pain for 30mins or so, when the mana started healing the damaged portion of the heart, the pain that Arvin was feeling started getting lesser and lesser by the minutes. And soon the pain vanished completely. When the pain vanished completely Arvin let all of the mana inside his heart go. That mana that was ejected from the heart started traveling through Arvin's body normally. And then Arvin opened his eyes.

The first thing that he was able to see when he opened his that more than half of the water of the small pound had been evaporated. The shield that he was sitting on was melted and had gotten deformed from the sides. 

Arvin sighed looking at the shield. Loki had already told him the possibility of something like this happening. So it didn't come as a surprise to him. Arvin's head had started aching as during the meditation his brain had also taken a toll. After all one had to concentrate on a very high level to accomplish something like this. Feeling his head aching, Arvin put his hands on the side of his head. As he did that he felt his ears, connected to his head with the help of very thin and small ligaments from head….

"AAAAAHHHHHH!!!" Arvin screamed. He started panicking as he didn't know what had happened there.

{Why the hell are you screaming?} Loki asked.

"Cant you feel it? My ears… They got detached from my head. They are now hanging by the side of my head. How did this happen?" Arvin asked panicking.

{That's it. You are panicking just because of this?} Loki said nonchalantly.

"What kind of event do you think I should panic in?" Arvin asked.

{Look at your face first. Then come back.} Loki said.

"Huh?" Arvin mumbled as he was confused about why Loki would say something like this? So Arvin then looked down in the water again.

He could see his reflection in the water. Although the image forming on water via reflection was not perfect. That image was also not that clear. But Arvin could make some things out. His nose looked a little bit bent towards the side. His lips which should be at the center of his face had now shifted towards right…

"WHAT THE F*CK IS GOING ON?" Arvin asked as he looked at his face.

{Don't you remember… You have a fluid body now. These kinds of things are bound to happen.}

"Huh? Why?" Arvin asked.

{Your body is made of fluid. When breaking through you produced enough energy that disturbed the alignment of your body.} Loki said.

"So how do I fix this?" Arvin asked.

{Simple… Meditate for a little while. Let mana flow through your body. Then everything will be alright.}

"…"

So Arvin started meditating. He let the mana flow through his entire body as he did before. And after meditating for 15 mins or so, Arvin opened his eyes. He looked at his hands and saw that some of the impurities had been flushed out from his skin. So he would need to take a bath. He looked at his face again and saw that his deformity had been cured. Now everything was at its place as it originally was. 

With that Arvin got up. He went out of the cave and jumped straight into the stream. There he washed thoroughly. He could feel that his strength had increased significantly. So after washing up, Arvin dried himself up. He then took out some meat buns that he had bought before coming here. While eating the meat buns, Arvin summoned his status window…

Arvin looked at this status window and forms a big smile on his face. He was at level-189. He had become very strong after becoming an acolyte. He was very happy about it. But then he notices that there were two skills that he had never seen before showing up in his status window….

"Loki what are these skills?"

{Oh… I totally forgot about them. You see now that before I came here, I knew that if I go forward with my plan I won't be able to give you new quests. So before coming here, I assigned you some premade secret quests. Like making your first rune formation and becoming an acolyte etc. So these skills must be from those quests.} Loki said.

Arvin became curious about what these skills do. He was also curious about changes that occurred in old skills. So he opened all of their descriptions tab to see what changes had taken place...

.... 

  [Name-Mana meditation

Description- As the name implies it is a meditation method that is used to flow mana in the host's body from the host's surroundings. When mana in the surroundings enters the host's body, it nourishes the host's body making it stronger, faster, and more aware of its surroundings.

Due to your fluid body mana meditation effects have increased threefold.]

[Name- Shape Shifting==>Shape Shifter

Description- An innate skill made by God Loki. It is a skill that can help the host to transform or change his human body anatomy to that of a creature of his choice. In simple words, this skill could be used by the host to transform into an animal or human of his choice.

Due to the host's fluid body, the proficiency of the host in this skill has increased astronomically. Now no one will be able to look through the host's disguise unless done by very special means. Due to the host's fluid body, the host can now turn into any humanoid creature of any shape, size, and s*x until the host can provide sufficient mana for it.

Changing into all the animals is also possible until the host and can provide enough mana for it.

Now as the mana capacity of the host has increased host can now form multiple sensory organs on any part of the body. Like if host wants he could form a pair of eyes at the back of his head.]

[Name-Fluid Body

Description- An innate skill of God Loki. With this skill, he became a master of shapeshifting. Due to the properties of this body only people in the world could look through his disguise and recognize him.

Due to the host's body is entirely made of fluid, host has gained 90% resistance from all the physical attacks. As well as the mana capacity of host has tripled in volume.]

[Name- Stealth

Description- A gift given by Goddess of Death, Hela. With this skill host's aura will start becoming transparent. With this host will gain the ability to be silent as death itself.]

[Name- Illusion Casting

Description- An innate skill of God of Mischief. With this skill, the host can form an illusion of himself or anything else in the area of 150 m around the host. The size and clarity of illusion will be dependent on the host's brain and mana capacity.

Host can control the actions of illusion. But if host loses concentration the illusion will vanish.]

[Name- Fire Affinity

Description- Now as Host had become an acolyte host can now turn his mana into fire. Thus host can cast fire-related runes and magic circles very easily.]

...…

Arvin read through all of the descriptions. While some skills were the same as before, some had changed a little bit. Now all he had to do is some practice test with his new powers…
