BXBX NOVEL Chapter 454 - Evolving!
??
Whenever I went to buy things at the supermarket, there were always several offers.
But she always said that I needed to analyze them well.
Especially because when they put something on offer, it is often about to go bad!
Like that time I bought minced meat and saved it for later, but it ended rooting the next days!
Uagh! Okay, time to not think about it, especially because I can literally eat even more disgusting stuff without much care about the world now.
Gluttony is overpowered after all.
Hm, I need a Gluttony Job, you know?
[Sin of Gluttony] or something.
That would be amazing.
Anyways, I decided to check both evolution options in detail.
…
[Rank 12: Divine Boundary-Breaking Netherworld Phantom Hecate Living Armor Death Sovereign]
A unique evolution is given to a Living Armor that has surpassed a mortal\'s strength and had become Divine while developing Magic, Death Attribute, and more by evolving.
Take upon the Divine Fragment of Hecate, the Goddess of Boundaries, Witchcraft, and Ghosts to acquire supernatural powers that can easily surpass any common sense, and even the ones you already possess.
This evolution grants a great enhancement to Magic, Death Attribute, and your ability to control Souls and Ghosts.
It also enhances the strength of all your Ghosts, while also giving you the additional ability to develop the power to cross boundaries.
…
I see… Wait, what?!
Cross boundaries?
You mean… Like, can I go to another world or something?
Nah, that would be way too good! Don\'t joke with me like that, oi!
And Ervas is the one developing into the Spatial Manipulation Magic stuff, I am a Death, Darkness, and Chaos specialist!
…Though this seems pretty interesting. Maybe I can also get my own Spatial Magic?
But I am sure as hell I don\'t have an affinity for that…
Hmm, well, it is what it is, I won\'t take my decision until I see the next one.
…
[Rank 12: Divine Dream-Seeking Nightmarish Phantom Hypnos Living Armor Death Sovereign]
A unique evolution is given to a Living Armor that has surpassed a mortal\'s strength and had become Divine in nature while developing the ability to enter dreams and travel through them and more by evolving.
Take upon the Divine Fragment of Hypnos, the God of Sleep and Dreams to acquire supernatural powers that can easily surpass any common sense, and even the ones you already possess.
This evolution grants a great enhancement to Magic, Death Attribute, and your ability to enter Dreams, alongside acquiring knowledge and power from them.
It also enhances the strength of all your Magic capabilities and mental fortitude.
…
Mental fortitude and dream powers, I see.
So I guess there are two options.
Boundary breaking (whatever this actually means).
And dream travel.
Why not both?
Come on System, let me fuse them or something…
Ding!
[Fuse both Evolution Options? Cost: 30.000 Skill Points]
Eh?
Whew, what a surprise this is!
Samsara System-chan is trying her best I guess?
Or his best? Well, it doesn\'t have a gender, so I am going to call him and her with both.
Though… it cost a ton of Skill Points to fuse together! That\'s almost all of the Skill Points I got by eating the Souls of the three comedians with the Familiar Spirits of Hekaton, this is incredibly unfair.
But getting both effects off the bat is sweet.
Although… maybe in my next evolution the option I don\'t take appears again, so maybe I can pick it then?
But how long will it take me to get to Rank 13 though? It took me 6 months to get to Rank 12!
Hmmm, well, there\'s a lot of juicy enemies here.
The Demon Gods, the other Heroes lurking around, the Vampires, and whoever is this guy who is making the Souls go crazy in fear for his presence (most likely the Necromancer knockoff who has come back for revenge like the good cliché villain he is).
I am sure that as long as I kill them all with everyone else, I should be able to get to Rank 13.. and maybe even 14?!
Imagine getting to Rank 14 in less than a year, couldn\'t be me, it hasn\'t happened yet after all.
But maybe…?
Well, feeling like I would waste Skill Points, I simply decide the obvious one.
Sorry Hypnos, but I am more into the hot Hecate, no hard feelings, you are a cool dude. Go to take a nap for now.
Ding!
[You have selected the [Rank 12: Divine Boundary-Breaking Netherworld Phantom Hecate Living Armor Death Sovereign] Evolution Option!]
Flash!
Suddenly, my entire body is showed with blue flames and white mist, my entire soul is shrouded with this as well, and I begin to change and evolve.
My soul, as always, begins to evolve too.
Since I started in the dungeon that my soul has been evolving every time I did.
I think that it managed to mutate so much because the asshole of Bestellen left a giant wound on it… and maybe the Samsara System took advantage of it, abusing this open area of the soul to stretch it every time I evolved.
The soul may be also sucked the energy of the environment or something? Or maybe from the evolution itself?
My other theory was that the soul evolved too because I had no flesh to be developed through the evolution, so the evolution directly affected the soul instead.
Nonetheless, I got pretty strong through that, but I still had a crap ton of challenges.
Suddenly, I heard the voice of a woman whispering to my ears.
"Hmm… What a good soul… Fitting of being the boundary breaker… Interesting… Oh, I see that you have many Ghost friends too? I suppose we are friends then," she said.
I felt as if cold hands embraced my soul, wrapping themselves around it.
And then I felt a cold kiss on my forehead, as a rush of power entered directly into my very soul.
This was… amazing.
It felt amazing, I mean.
Was that Hecate? Damn, she didn\'t even complain like the crybaby of Thanatos.
Perhaps my Guidance guided her? I don\'t really know.
What I know is that I have evolved, as I open my eyes again, my armor has changed to "its original form" which is gigantic, I think it is like… almost 8 meters now? Whew.
It is all demonic in appearance, with spiky decorations and more.
But now there\'s what seems to be a large witch-hat-shaped helmet on it, which looks quite hilarious.
However, I quickly shapeshift back my armor into a dress and my phantom and soul into my usual appearance.
A rush of new power engulfs my soul, as it feels like it was born anew…
Well, this evolution felt a bit different than before, especially by that voice…
Did Hecate just happily gave me a piece of her soul and blessed me? I am completely in the blue in here.
My soul, however, feels even more real than ever before, I can simply will it and it is just like flesh, I can squeeze it and the skin has wrinkles, there are even little transparent airs growing in my arm, very little though, you can\'t even see them if you were ordinary.
My long wine-colored hair had become silky too, even more than before.
Damn…
