Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

After having prepared the magic circles in advance, and having placed all the materials on place, the ceremony to grant Physiques to everyone started. The Great Spirit said that aside from exercise, consuming materials directly will also help them develop it, but for the beginning, they need to do this ritual which will help them directly absorb the materials essences into their bodies.

FLAAAASH!

The flames of the Lesser Fire Dragons, and the fragments of the crystalized phoenix flames melded into Mark's body, alongside the spiritual energy of my own BNLO avatar's wood and leaves. These new mystical flames merged with his already almost mastered fire magic, enhancing his strength even further.

The venomous powers of the Viper Drake Queen and the darkness powers of the Lesser Blue Dragons scales, eyes, and their internal organs melded into Rita's body, imbuing her with a new element, poison, while strengthening her darkness and shadows.

And lastly, Lily absorbed the hardiness, vitality, and strength of the Cave Drakes through their hard and rock scales, blood, claws, fangs, and some of their internal organs, such as stomach and liver. Lastly, I also added some high quality ores I had bought in the Dwarf City.

FLUOOOOOSH!

The materials melded well enough, and the physique awakening ceremony was a total success. Everyone started overflowing with brand-new powers. This time, The Voice of the World was able to report to me their changes, something that wasn't possible before.

"Woah, I feel so strong now! Hell yes- Ah?!" Rita was shocked as she raised her hands, and a purple liquid started coming out of her hands. "W-What is this? Oh, poison!"

"My muscles… I no longer have soggy arms!" Lily celebrated. "Ahh, I even got biceps! Oh, and I can turn metallic? My skin turned gray!"

"My body feels so hot… Ugh…" Mark began gasping for air, taking out his shirt as his muscular body started to sweat rapidly. Gosh, he was certainly hot.

"Mark! Are you okay, dear?" I walked to his side, touching his sweating chest, he was blushing a bit.

"I-I'm fine, don't worry." He smiled. "T-Though, are you enjoying it?"

"A-Ah! S-Sorry!" I quickly stepped back.

"Ahahah, no, it's fine, you can touch me as much as you want." He smiled gently.

"T-That's not something you should be saying so openly…" I felt embarrassed myself.

"Elayneeeeee! Help me!" Rita continued crying. "How do I make it stop- Ah, it stopped. Oh, so it just happens whenever I will it, huh? Cool. I even feel like I can kind of edit the poison and all, this is crazy."

"Make sure not to poison your husband…" I sighed. "Maybe we shouldn't had given her poison magic… Ah, let me conjure some Charms over your own body."

I quickly created charms that inhibited Rita from conjuring Poison casually. Now, she cannot just exude out of her body unless she directly imbues Mana into it.

"Hey, my poison…" Rita sighed in disappointment.

"For now how about you develop some poison spells?" I wondered. "Monsters will become easier if we can poison them beforehand."

"Yeah, especially bulky ones." Mark agreed.

"Well, fine, not like we have done much monster hunting for a while now." Rita shrugged. "Or are you planning on going anywhere?"

"Well, it is more like just preparing for the worst." I said. "Just like in other countries, eventually we'll se more Dungeon Breaks around here. Better be safe than sorry, Rita."

"I guess…" Rita nodded.

"I feel so strong!" Lily said happily. "Ah, but I need to practice this strength or I'll continue breaking things…"

"Yeah, for now, how about we dedicate to train our bodies a bit and see our limits?" I asked. "We could even spar a bit between each other."

"Sounds like a plan! I'm gonna beat Mark's ass!" Rita said with a laugh.

"E-Eh?!" Mark felt slightly intimidated. "I don't know if we should really just spar between one another…"

"Well, not like we got any other sparring partners other than Rose. Let's try out each of your abilities to see what they can do too." I said.

"Yeah! Good idea! Let it all out you guys!" The Great Spirit agreed instantly.

Like that, we started practicing, and I made notes about each of my friends abilities and how they worked through the physiques. Physique Techniques or Abilities were much more similar to usual Awakener Powers than Spells or Magic itself.

They were innate powers developed in our own bodies after all, so developing a Physique was… like a cheat to develop multiple Powers all at once, crazy.

Mark's physique was capable of heating up to a very high temperature and even produce flames, which burned his shirt and underwear, but not the military equipment I had magically enchanted for him some time ago.

He was also able to exude a hot, warm aura around him to oppress foes, transform into blazing wood, extend his body, make it bigger, and even transform slightly. Also, he could produce special flames around his body. The strangest and most interesting one was the Flames of Regeneration, a derivative power from the Phoenix Crystallized Flames material.

These flames didn't hurt, and could quickly close and heal wounds, but they cost a lot of Mana and Vital Energy, or "Ki" as we'll like to call this energy needed to use Physique Abilities.

And honestly, he became such a stud. Mark was already very handsome, but now he was HOT.
