Reborn as a Bully

HAPPY VALENTINES

"Perhaps, the magic ingredients are not suitable for the new combined skill", I told Spellmaster regretfully.

"Combining a Tesseract into your skill will be better", Rinna suddenly suggested to me.

Rinna was a specialist when it came to augmenting her magic with artifacts, especially Tesseracts. Tesseracts were special artifacts of the Valhalla religion that were scattered across worlds and galaxies. 

By themselves, the Tesseracts were rather useless. But Rinna learned how to extract the powerful magic from them and incorporated them into her own magic.

"I've found several Tesseracts in my travels, but they were all taken by my Valhalla Crux", I told them disappointedly.

In my previous life, the Valhalla God bestowed upon me a special ability, the Valhalla Crux. It was a special magical space that was attached to my soul, just like my Shangri-la space, except the Valhalla Crux only takes in Tesseracts.

Also, whenever I found any Tesseracts, My Valhalla Crux would activate its magic to absorb the Tesseract that I found, giving me no chance to possess or use the Tesseracts.

"Well, these artifacts that you incorporated into your bone magic are suitable for your new constellation skill even if they are not Tesseracts, but I haven't figured out why the sum is not greater than the sum of its parts", Spellmaster said to me about the artifacts I absorbed to enhance my skill with my bone magic.

"I still believe Tesseracts of the Valhalla are the most powerful artifacts of magic", Rinna said to us.

"Yes, you may be right. If only I can extract those useless Tesseracts in my Valhalla Crux for my own use", I said to them.

Spellmaster thought about the matter for a while before he said to us, "Perhaps there is a way that I can transfer the magic of the Tesseracts in your Valhalla space into your bone realm, using magic tattoos but I am not too familiar with Tesseract's magic".

"I can help you. I am very familiar with the qualities and characteristics of Tesseracts", Rinna told Spellmaster.

Rinna brought a few dozens of her shamans to draw a large spell hexagram on the ground placing Night Stones and magical pearls to augment its magic. She put me into the middle of the hexagram as her shamans started to cast a spell arraye over me.

"What do I do now?" I asked her.

"Now strip", she told me while hiding a micro grin in her face.

"What the hell?", Cassandra screamed out loud in shock, seeing me naked before everyone.

"Okay", I told Rinna as I took off my clothes.

------

All at once, the tattoos etched upon my skin stirred with a newfound vitality, undergoing a mesmerizing metamorphosis. They unraveled into tendrils of arcane essence, dancing and twirling like ethereal wisps within the confines of the sacred hexagram. 

Within this mystical arrangement, magic ingredients were placed, their physical forms transmuting into streams of magical energy that seamlessly blended with the essences of my tattoos.

Guided by the skilled hand of the Spellmaster, incantations flowed forth, and the tattoo essences underwent a breathtaking transformation. These essences liquefied, coalescing into a fluid ink that ascended, shaping itself into flowing a helix suspended in the air. 

These Helix suddenly rushed into my forehead, joining into the unique space of my Valhalla Crux. On the other hand, the tattoo magic connects with the bones in my body.

Soon, the magic of my Bone, Heart and my Valhalla space were intricately linked. Like suitors who chose their preferred companions, the magic of my Heart sought nourishment from my Valhalla space drawing out the Tesseracts within, before augmenting them into my bones.

"Can I wear my clothes now?" I asked Rinna.

"Yes, you may. Actually, you don't have to remove your pants for the spell augmentation though", Rinna said to me smiling.

"I was thinking about the same thing", Cassandra said and looked at Rinna angrily.

"You didn't say a thing when I took it off", I said to Rinna in my mind, but she felt what I said to her.

"We are even now", she said to me in her mind.

In my previous life, Rinna asked me to watch over her every time she augmented her Serpent magic with Tesseracts and magic artifacts, and she would show me her partially naked body every time. It was her way of teasing me.

It was time I showed her my well-built abs in return.

"It's my turn now. There are still magic of the Tesseracts remaining in the arraye which will go to waste if not taken", Rinna said to me to my surprise.

Rinna walked to the middle of the hexagram and to my shock and surprise she dropped her dress too before me and hugged on my body to my shock and surprise.

"Shameless", Cassandra said to us as she gasped in shock at Rinna's conduct.

But Rinna didn't undress for fun or for our attention or to touch my abs.

Rinna's shaman activated the spell arraye again as the tattoo on her body were liquified and became ink again. The ink rose into the air and connected to my body like how Spellmaster cast them earlier.

But Rinna wasn't going to take a Tesseract from me. She was taking the remnant Tesseract magic that was dissolved but not absorbed by my bones, transferring those essence into her soul.

Suddenly, the ink came out of our bodies before transforming into a colossal serpent. The serpent had a strong body and four heads.

-----

Before us materialized a mystical serpent, its massive body resembling that of an overgrown python, with a chest that rivaled the grandeur of a dragon adorned with many heads and crowns.

The first head, resembling a cobra, possessed the extraordinary ability to summon countless holographic serpents, capable of petrifying the hearts of its victims, turning them to stone.

The second head, a fanged serpent, was a unique entity that Rinna had acquired upon awakening the enigmatic mother serpent within her soul. Her powerful fangs could pierce through the strongest of armor.

The third head took the form of a python, its body extending gracefully to merge with the serpent's tail, creating a colossal and formidable presence that bestowed upon her both strength and protection.

The fourth and final head of the Serpent was in the head of a human with a crown of serpents on her. This was the exact imagery of Medusa, the powerful serpent goddess in Rinna's temple. 

The presence of Medusa could cause the fear of god and serpents in her victim, immobilizing weaker foes without a fight.

-------

"Erm..you forgot to wear your dress back", I told Rinna as her breasts were still touching my chest.

"Girls in this forsaken country are so open", Cassandra complained out loud commenting about Rinna, but Rinna wasn't concerned about her thoughts.

"Oh, I did it on purpose to let you see more of my gorgeous body", Rinna told me in her mind. 

She was more concerned about my thoughts.

"Damn…damn…damn… where is my AI when I need her Emergency Protocol", I told myself.

In my previous life, my AI controller could temper my emotions with bodily hormones and chemicals, but I had no such means right now. The image of the beautiful naked and seductive Rinna was imprinted in my mind and the images kept on duplicating like I was struck by a virus.

"Oh, sorry my mistake", she said to us as she put on her dress while Cassandra frowned.

Almost every guy wants to have a harem of beautiful women in their wildest dreams but having too many girls wanting to be with me was a complicated thing to handle, especially on Valentine's day.

"Which girl are you having a date with tonight?" Ratatouille asked me suddenly with a cheeky smile.

"What is so special about tonight?" I asked him.

"According to Sara's calendar, it is Valentine's day today and usually, lovers will have dinner together", Rinna told me suddenly to my surprise.

No wonder Rinna was acting out of character today. Today is Valentine's day and she wants to be with me.

"We'll have a banquet tonight for everyone. Valentines is a day to celebrate with lovers and also friends", I said to them.

"Even we are invited?" Chash asked me.

"Yes, Happy Valentines Day everybody", I said to them.

-----

"Did you get another Serpent?" I asked Rinna.

"No, but my Serpent of Neheb has evolved again", Rinna said to me.

"This serpent is as strong as Jormungan, the Legendary serpent that we killed in Byorgvin", I said to her.

"If ranked by the Conjurer's Court of Drachia, this serpent of Medusa is at least a high leveled Yellow Legendary, reaching to the tier of Blue Legendary", Meera said to us about Rinna's conjured serpent.

"Damn, you are so powerful now", I said to Rinna.

"What does the ritual do to your magic?" Rinna asked me in reply.

"Why don't I try it out to show you", I replied to her.

-----

The air crackled with raw energy, the ground beneath trembled in anticipation of what I was about to unfold. The sky darkened, and a celestial glow illuminated the landscape which perfectly accompanied my display of raw power.

This was the most advanced magic that I have acquired which blended the magic of the templars, Bone magic of the Byorgvin Island, the knowledge of Tesseracts from the Serpent Temple and the tattoo magic of Spellmaster.

I rose into the air, walking in small steps that sent ripples of energy through the atmosphere, leaving trails of sparkling stardust in its wake. 

My left hand unfurled, revealing a magnificent lance crafted from the pure essence of the cosmos. The lance gleamed with a radiant, otherworldly light, and symbols of celestial origin adorned its shaft.
