[Evolution Options]

​​

[Rank 11: Divine Chimera Beast Demon King]

Before me appears a new evolution that I didn't expect, to be honest.

It was just… very simplified.

That's a good thing though, I like things to be simple to an extent.

My race name was getting so big it was weird to even pronounce it.

It felt like a tongue twister.

Not really my thing, this is simplified and nicer at the end, way better, in my opinion.

And… Rank 11 already, I have really come a long way.

Well, Veronica is always a Rank higher than me though… But that's good, she needs to be stronger than me if she wants to keep her figure as the older sister.

If I were to be of a Rank higher, would I become the older brother?

Wait, I am actually older than her…

She's… around 9 months old in a few days.

And I am 3 years old.

Eh?

I feel scammed now.

No, wait, I should stop thinking nonsensical and useless things, and go directly to what's important.

However, my curiosity is getting the better of me and I want to see the specific details of such an outstandingly simplified evolution option.

I quickly use Appraisal on it, as I glance at its info.

…

[Rank 11: Divine Chimera Beast Demon King]

A Divine Evolution is given to someone who has accumulated an enormous quantity of genes from different bloodlines, alongside a Divine Bloodline.

This evolution grants the user the ability to shapeshift through the use of such genes swifter while being able to create new chimeric beings through the manipulation of genetic material.

Additionally, it grants greater physical capabilities and enhances all types of Magic.

…

Oh, I see…

So I unknowingly really did absorb the Demon God-King's genetic material without knowing…

And this is what counts as the Divine Bloodline?

But what is eve the bloodline of this entity?

The Demon God-King… even after eating the Necromancer who seemed to be made from a residual part of his original soul, we never go to see his actual memories with Veronica.

So it is still a mystery as to what is he really.

It is only known that he appeared thousands of years ago and led the Demon Gods, and even helped many new ones raise with his strange powers.

He was said to be a Dark and

Bright God at the same time, made from what made them all.

This is why he was probably so strong and needed to be sliced into many pieces which were later on sealed to defeat him.

"Defeat" him, because he was never actually killed, he still lives everywhere.

But now, he's used as a tool, although sometimes he manages to parasitize mortals with his fragments, and depending on the fragment, if it holds some residual memory, it can even gain consciousness, forming entities similar to the Necromancer.

I believe that the entity that is causing this pain to the souls around Seashore might be one of such beings… If it is too strong for us, we must be cautious of what it will do, and try to strike it down as quickly as possible.

However, due to many restraints, we cannot do it for now, as we believe that the threats against us keep growing bigger and bigger.

But that is not exactly a bad thing, the more the merrier. With enough challenges, we can grow faster…

But first of all, I must evolve.

So I click it and do it.

Ding!

[You have selected the [Rank 11: Divine Chimera Beast Demon King] Evolution Option!]

The moment I selected the evolution, my entire body began to bubble.

As if my flesh was constantly twisting with each passing second.

My bones broke and regenerated anew, and so did the rest of the body.

My bones were torn apart and then regenerated, even my eyes burnt and came back.

Though it wasn't really agonizing, I didn't felt any pain, but it was very strange…

…

I think I fell asleep for a few minutes.

Now that I have woken up, things have ended. I have evolved.

The first thing I notice is that I have become… a bit taller.

I seem to have become as tall as a boy on his 11-12, perhaps.

My body has also matured… I don't know how to feel about it, should I have treasured my youth a bit more?

I have grown up already…

No wait, I am still quite small though, so maybe everything is not over yet.

Hmm, I wish I could do a time skip to live my youth peacefully before I could hit 18 years old… Then, I would be able to have a family with Pekorina, Acathea, and Amelia.

Ah, I shouldn't think those things for now… But it makes me happy to think about the three girls, they make my everyday worth it…

Anyways, I should assess other things.

My wolf ears are still there, and so my tail.

But now, instead of a single horn, I have two.

At last, it has become even.

Both horns are… golden.

They are covered in a gold-like material and are very sharp, they spiral into the heaves as if they were crowns.

My crimson eyes are still crimson red. But there is an afterglow that seems to contain this golden brilliance as well, how odd.

My skin seems as smooth as before, but there are scales that I can retract at any time inside my flesh. It had always felt odd to do it, but not now for some reason.

My claws can grow big and strong like those of a dragon, but just like scales, I can retract them as well.

And my muscles… they are the same, very slim…

But when I touch them, they are incredibly hard, like a rock. No, like ore.

And my bones are firm as well, I can sense them within my flesh.

In fact, my bones had become black for some reason, I don't understand why.

And lastly, the system windows…

Ding!

[You have evolved into a [Rank 11: Divine Chimera Beast Demon King]!]
