《My Hermit Life》Chapter 45
Advertisement
On a clearing in front of a tower on an island inside of a small dimension stands four Legendary Beasts who are Solomon, Loretta, Deam, and Gabrielle. The four were standing around watching a, for lack of better words, unique scene. They were watching their kids Skyddsande, Skyddsud, Fuil, Wahine, Fear, Boireann, Rean, and Nathair, evolving. The children were regressing to an embryoninc like state, something that they had never truly experienced since they werent created through natural means, and were instead made like a mishmash of different species. The process of returning to an embryo like state is required for the kids very race to evolve into true Legendary Beasts.
The embryos floated in the fetus posistion in mid air, like the universe itself was a womb and the children were its children. The children were in this state for nine weeks, with the parents taking turns watching them for each day.
At the end the evolution the ebryos had grown from the size of a human head to be the size of an adults chest. For their " birth " the children grew from the size of a chest to the size of an average human four year old.
Each of the parents went up to the children to speak with them.
" Sande, Sud how are you two feeling? Are you both alright? "
The two took a few minutes to gain their bearing considering they had just been birthed technically. Eventually they both answered.
" I feel odd dad, its like I just experienced 100,000 years of growth all at once and then had all my strength taken away . . . . . . . I feel weak. "
" Same for me. "
Skyddsande seemed to be in shock while Skyddsud was angry at the weakness he felt. Solomon just let his kids relax for a bit while hugging them. In the meantime the situations were completely different for the others.
Lorettas kids were completely fine though both of them seemed kind of slow when answering at first. This seemed to be the result of them getting accustomed to their new stats. Wahine started dancing around to get used to the changes in her body, dancing was one of her favorite past times. Her brother Fuil started with basic excersises, stretching jumping jacks, as well as a few other moves.
Deams children took about a few minutes to get started back up in a way similar to Solos kids. Rean started talking with her mom asking what happened while her brother was still starting up. Eventually though he relaxed and joined in the conversation, though he soon got bored and started stretching with Fuil. Deam and Rean ust smiled at their family members attitude noteing that despite his evolution his personality hadnt changed.
Gabbies children Boireann and Nathair got started up the quickest, likely due to their high mental stats. They calmly got answers from their mother before examining their bodies.

All the kids had some changes to their physical appearences and a few changes with their organs. Gabbrielles children went from three headed snakes to half Dragon half snake creatures with four claws. Seven whiskers and horse like faces, but their bodies were smooth, long, and even like snakes as opposed to the un-even body of dragons. The two children also had elf like ears on both sides of their heads, something which was beyond odd. But still looked very cool and almost badass.
Solomons children changed from monkey looking being who took after their father to odd looking forms. Skyddsande gained a more feminine body with larger breasts as well as wide hips and a larger ass. This was all despite her smaller size so when she grew up she would definitely become as seductive as a succubus. Her arms hang down to her knees while her tail was three times as long as her body, she still had fur covering certain body parts. But the color changed from a light brown to a brownish golden that she likely took after her father. Her face also changed to be like her fathers with a squarish jaw and a pointed nose, her chin also stuck out. Sandes ears became a short rounded ear similar to humans and orcs. Her face wasnt particualry attractive but it wasnt ugly either.
Skyddsud gained a body similar to his fathers with dark brown and golden fur that covered his chest. His face also became more masculine, while his ears became long sharp ears that likely came from elf dna. His arms were similar in length to his sisters and hung down to his knees.
Fear Coille went from a mainly human look to be more orc like his mother. His skin became an almost charcoal black while hair became a dark green that looked the exact same shade as his mothers. His face was a chubby looking amiable face that many would associate wih buddha from Solomons past world. His body type was exactly like an average orc childs with wide shoulders, wide hips, bulky muscles, sharp short nails, with a wide back. He was around 5' tall with long hands and feet.
Rean Coille was Fears twin. Her muscles though were slightly more lean though her hair reached down to her buttcheeks.
Fuils body became similar to a short, fit, elderly human. He grew a full head of hair as well as a beard that reached down to right above his stomach. The beard had a texture exactly like grass but it was much much more durable. His skin also had wrinkles that looked more like bark than skin. He had lean muscles despite his previous fighting style and contrary to his Dao. When he tried using his 72 Transformations he learned that he had only three transformation. A massive rhino elephant with bulging muscles and long threantening tusks. His second transformation was a tall humanoid battle form that would allow him skillful movements as opposed to pure strength fighting. His third transformation was his default form as a bearded elderly man.

Wahines form became a tall plant like beauty with skin like a humans except its color was an exotic light pink. Her hair was like willow tree branches with hot pink flowers growing all the way down them. Her body was short while her arms and legs were long. Her legs were thin near the bottom while the grew thicker and thicker as they got closer to her waist. Her arms were like Solomons kids and hung aways down her legs. This body type was perfect for Wahines fighting style, with skillfull willowy movements.
Each got into decent condition an hour after being " born " with Solomons kids being the slowest on the uptake. And taking three minutes after Lorettas kids who were the second slowest.
" Alright so the kids have alot more talent and have lost all of their levels. This means we can train them to become so much more than they would have been before. I personally say we should give them some extreme stat training. Maybe alot of abusing my Mastery hack. "
" I agree that we should use your Mastery trick, but I dont know about extreme stat training. I know Wahine and Gabbies kids focus on Skill and Magic more than pure stats. Maybe we should also try doing some work with their crafting skills. I know your kids strengths have alot of focus on Wood Working to build totems. Fear does alot of engineering work. "
The parents contempilated in silence for a few moments before Gabrielle spoke up.
" I say we spend a few months maybe a year getting to know the kids strengths before we try making a workout regime. Does that sound good to you guys? "
After a few moments of thinking Solomon nodded his head yes while Deam and Loretta both spoke out agreeing.
1 Year Later
On the Arena that Solomon built is all of the kids in a massive free for all. Skyddsande releasing a rain of totems down onto her enemies, each one landing brutal hits. Skyddsuds totems shaking the entire Arena with each hit landed, making the parents scared the Arena would drop from the sky. All the while Wahine and Rean going at it trying to lands hits on each other with Boireann and Nathair letting out magic attack after magic attack. Fuil wa going willy nilly charging at everything he saw in his rhino elephant form, occasionally changing into his humanoid attacking form for more skilled attacks. Fear was just watching while attacking every now and then when someoen else came at him. This battle was to establish the power levels of the kids in a battle after their evolution and the free for all was Solos idea he came up just for fun.
None of the kids had a distinct large advantage but Solomons kids were definitely in the lead, thanks to great ranged attacks. While still having damn good close combat capabilities. Though their advantages werent as good as the other kids specialties. Boireann and Nathair having better range attacks while Lorettas kids being better at close combat. With Deams kids being able to keep anybody who wants to attack them away from touching them. This kind of stale mate lasted for an hour before the parents called it all off since they had a good judge of their kids power levels.
All the kids kept similar fighting styles from before their evolution, but they had way up-graded strength. Sud and Sande gained larger benefits from their totems, while having the same advantages from before. They also had higher talents in staff fighting. Deams children gained an almost telepathy between them that allowed them high combined capabilities. They also gained higher battle instincts and more talents. Lorettas kids could have higher gains from absorbing the blood of enemies, they could also gain stats from stuff they eat. Only things that had been living with in the last twekve hours though. Gabrielles children had their specialty increased immensely so that they could learn magics alot easier. While the magic they used had way more power, less Mana expenditure, and easier flow.
Thanks to the year training and the battle the parents knew the training regimes they would impose on their kids. Solomon teaching his kids wood working and engineering for potentialy knew types of totems. As well as teaching them his Overbearing Staff Technique, and his library skill, though he taught all the kids and parents the library skill. He also made them start on some physical stats training.
Loretta started teaching her kids more advanced Biological Manipulation techniques she developed. She also started collecting things for them to absorb the dna from. She also made them start doing the bare minimum in stats training as well as technique training for them both.
Deams kids stayed on the same training regime they had before just more extreme. She also started teaching them magics.
Gabbies children stayed on a similar training path to before with more stats training.
Like this time passed until the end of the 1 million years.

... And My Skillet
A long time ago, a child was born under the great blue sky. Many a Dwarf grumbled at the auspicious event, tugging furtively at their beards at this ill omen. A year later as the expedition had begun digging into the virgin hills of their new home, the grumbling of the doughty mountain people rose to a disbelieving furor when the yearling passed over the ritual offerings that would determine his lot in life. Instead, the as of yet unnamed child crawled over to a skillet fresh out of the fire and begun picking at the rock bread, unconcerned with the heat. Shouts turned into laughter, frowns lifted into craggy smiles. Upon placing a handful of the bread into his mouth, the infant’s face grew so grim and stony not even the eldest of the present Dwarves could match him. There was a durable ore within this babe, of that the Lore Keeper was sure. Yumly Ironhand was thus named, the beginning of his great tale immortalized on the rune walls of his clan’s history. “It’s pronounced Yoom Lee and no, rock bread isn’t a misnomer.”
