Testing The Limits

Success! The consciousness transference worked. I step out of the chamber on two legs. Fall down to four. I then remember that I am now a quadruped, with wings. Good thing I have flown using wings before. Anyway, I have seen the way horses walk, let's try that. Front right, back left, switch, repeat. Good, I can walk. Let's see a gallop. Push with back hooves, stay up with front. Good, I can gallop too. I then fall flat on my face, might need to work on the timing.

Alright, wings. Flaring them out, I head over to the hangar, ready for flight. I gallop to the edge of my ledge, leap off, and start flapping. I gain altitude, going higher and higher. I find it hard to breathe at this altitude. Not getting enough oxygen forms exertions, I start using mana to power my flight. Good, I can still use mana in this form. Heading home, I attain speeds in excess of fifty meters per second. Prepping for the landing, I slow down, and flare out my wings right before my ledge. Landing gracefully, I commend my self on a job well done. So does my audience.

"Bravo, bravo! Encore, Encore!" Discord and his army have shown up. His army is only clones of himself, but still an army. I charge up a spell on my horn.

"Time to test the limits of my magical abilities!" I fire at Discord, the beam hits, a clone appears in hell. Gave the devil a present. "Which one is the real Discord?!" All the clones and Discord, point at every other one, growing hands to accommodate it. I snark, "Thanks for the directions." I then draw on my connection to the magical plane, and project the spell to hit them all. They are all banished to hell. One more thing to try. Drawing on the ambient mana in the area, I gather and measure the amount of mana I collect. Much more than I was able to collect in my human form. So I will be able to cast much more powerful spells on my personal power alone. Now tired, I need sleep. And food, food is good. But before I do that, I need to fix my DNA so I don't age a few years while sleeping. Charging up my genetic manipulation spell, I target the genes that determine aging speed. Slow them down to normal. Now I can sleep, but first, eat.
