here is chapter 2, hope you enjoy it.

----------------------------------------

When i woke up in the morning i was completely healed but i had no idea how or why.

“There is no way the masters paid a mage to heal me and I highly doubt it would be god or else he would have helped me out sooner” i thought. However i didn’t have the time to think about these things as i still had work to do.

In the evening after my work was done i went back to the old oak tree. The weird thing was that there was no blood on or even near the tree even though i punched it so hard that my bones were visible. But as strange as it was it didn’t really change anything so i started punching and kicking the tree again until i was bleeding.  However, after a few minutes i noticed something on the ground. Drops of my blood were gathering together and were crawling up my legs to reach my wounds and then went back inside my body, and while i was lost in my thoughts, thinking about how something like this could happen the rest of the blood started climbing back up my other leg.

It was kind of creepy to see blood climbing on your body but since it healed me and thus made my training last longer i couldn’t complain about it. However after a few minutes i noticed that my wounds still weren’t healed and the blood was still slowly climbing back up as fast as a handicapped slug on a sunny day. But best thing was that after I started thinking about it going faster it actually did as if it were obeying my will. All of a sudden, the blood wasn’t crawling anymore but was just floating directly to my wounds.

"i wonder if it can do other things" i thought while willing my blood to do something else. all of a sudden it reacted. it started to evaporate and formed a blood red mist, completely hiding my body. However it wasn't really a useful thing as my body was hidden by a big, dense, red mist which wasn't really discrete. I t was like hiding a torch behind a bon fire, it was simply drawing even more attention. And the smell of blood didn't help either.

I then once more willed the blood to change chape. The blood started to gather together in a ball of blood containing  around 100ml of blood. There were many mages using water as a weapon so blood should be able to do the same as it is also a liquid.

I tried to will the blood in the shape of a scythe. It took me a while to get the hang of it but after you understand how it works it is pretty easy to controle. I then threw the scythe towards the oak tree but all it did was splash some blood on it. I kept on experimenting with this for a hour before i gave up. I then willed the blood back into a ball to see if i could concentrate it more. And yes i could. Since blood was a liquid it could also be frozen and thus exist in a solid state, however since i controlled the blood itself i didn't need ice magic to "freeze" the blood. but the result was just a plain ball of solide blood that would be able to kill small animals at most, but it had no chance to kill even a common farmer.

I spend the whole night experimenting and discovered 3 things. 1) If i wanted to i could draw out more blood from my body.2) by controlling the chape of the blood i could make makeshift weapons such as a dagger or a knife and maybe other things. However there was a an issue related to my first discovery. I didn't have enough blood. a normal adult body contains between 5 and 6 liters of blood, and losing a third of it is already deadly so my weapon options were already greatly reduced.3) My last discovery was that i could concentrate my blood. if i made my weapons out of regular solid blood then it wasn't really that dangerous, it could kill a normal man if he were to be impaled on it but almost everyone in this world was training either as a warrior or a mage a,d even little farmer boys had the constitution of a rank three warrior. Strength made farm work just way more easy. However by concentrating my blood it would get harder and if concentrated enough it should be equal to a steel weapon. but the more i concentrate it the more blood i need so it is kind of a double edged sword.

however i also had an idée that might solve my little problem.
