[Look at this guy, it's obvious that he already decided to give you the crystal card since he set a time limit that you would surely complete even without using your 'Omni-Element' ability that he doesn't know about, yet he still pretends that he is presenting you with a challenging opportunity that you need to go all out for, isn't he just a weirdo?]

'Well, I can't deny that…'

Despite the fact the mental imprint has already mentioned that I wouldn't take one week to assure me of the effect earlier, it went as far as to make it seem like some sort of a test later, perhaps the main core personality of the one who left this mental imprint was a true tsundere…

'But it's not like you are one to talk either…'

Compared to the mental imprint's owner who I didn't know much of, Long was one who had already displayed a tsundere persona before, it was really as if the kettle was calling the pot black.

{Well then, go ahead and receive the complete 'Two-Faced Mask', the reason why I didn't leave the Elemental Arts that I used in my own version of the 'Two-Faced Mask' was not only because it was specifically made for my special physique but also because I wanted to see the birth of a new 'Two-Faced Mask', this would be your own Art as of this moment, so you should give it a new name.}

Just as the mental imprint finished talking, the fading black gaseous cloud that had already stabilized started to rush in a certain direction as it started to disappear, that direction was naturally the mental energy thread through which I was connected to the mental imprint.

'This makes it the third time.'

Digesting the special Elemental Art that coursed through the mental energy thread as I confirmed its contents, I couldn't help but wonder about the actual purpose of these legacies as well as their timely appearances. While this world felt completely real, it was events like this that made it feel out of sync, but it wasn't like I would refuse it anyway.

Just like while all the players who played single-player games knew that every quest's end is already written, and even so, they still struggle to complete it and feel happy with its rewards when it's finally done, I was more than happy to receive another addition to my abilities that would increase my survival rate, it didn't matter if it was the result of a scripted event or a free one.

After going through the whole mentally transferred Elemental Art, I told Light to stay put through our mental link before putting the bag he was in on the side of the wall before I sat cross-legged in front of the floating crystal card.

'This is better.'

Neither did I want to reveal Light to the strange mental imprint, nor did I want anything to happen to him as I handled the troublesome Darkness element. As such, I believed it would be better for me to keep some distance from him in case something happened. It was already a miracle that Light wasn't affected by the Corruption Space due to the system recognizing him as my 'Companion' so there was no need to expose him to more danger…

'This Elemental Art is pretty special even on its own…'

Having already browsed through the old ones that were kept within my memory before, I knew that both Elemental Arts weren't normal, they were used as semi-dual Elemental Arts since they were of similar nature as a path to Demonification, but they didn't seem to be specifically created for that sake, so they shouldn't have been created by the demons at the very least.

'Let's see… The Elemental Seed is a drop of blood.'

Although they couldn't be compared to 'Lightning Cell' which challenged tempering the whole body as an Elemental Conductor, the two nameless Elemental Arts were also very interesting as they set the blood vessels as their Elemental Conductor. As two Elemental Arts that supplemented each other, one would take the arteries that carry the blood away from the heart while the other would take the veins that carry the blood back to the heart.

{While it's a pity that you won't be able to practice the complete Elemental Art due to the lack of Shadow elements in this Darkness aligned space, you will be able to complete it quickly once you get out of here in no time, so just focus on the Darkness part for the time being.}

Seeing that I was finally getting to start, the mental imprint pointed out its worries as it comforted me, but I didn't answer as I didn't want to divide my attention at the critical point of starting.

I was already used to having the 'Pseudo-Omni Elemental Crystals' with me as a supply so I automatically withdrew one out of my spatial ring into my hands.

{Oh, you have a Shadow Elemental Crystal on you? That's great! Wait, this isn't…}

The voice of the mental imprint finally vanished as I started by collecting Shadow elements from one crystal after another using my mental energy both as a spoon and a container just like I did with Earth elements when I wanted to use 'Cultivation Practice' before I used the 'Elemental Seduction' method that's recorded in the 'Two-Faced Mask' to draw in both the contained Shadow elements and the Darkness elements that lingered everywhere within the atmosphere using Lightning elements…

'The concentration of the Darkness elements easily rivals that of Elemental Crystals…'

Even when compared to the Shadow elements that were already collected and ready for the picking, the Darkness elements were faster and easier to take in due to their high concentration in the atmosphere, but both elements were nonetheless absorbed into my body through my nose before passing through the lungs to reach my heart.

The Shadow elements were faster this time as they directly moved to leave the heart in the aorta vein as it started to take shape...
