《Reborn-----the unexpected tales》Chapter 2 : part 2- evolution
Advertisement
After being badly damaged by that fall i went to a short sleep to regain my strength since i will have better chance of evolving successfully at 100% strength.I have slept 2 days before i woke up.by now i have regained my strength,i can already feel the effects of being fully recovered it is a blissful experience.My soul feels at ease and my body is relaxed,but i don't have time to be relaxed i have to prepare for my upcoming evolution.From what i found out during evolution process i will be vulnerable and wont be able to control my abilities so i have to prepare.
After few hours of rolling around i found a small cave with a 1 meter wide entrance and half a meter tall.Anything that might endanger my life should not be able to crawl in here which means i am almost completely safe. Inside of cave is about 3 meters long and 1,5 meter tall.It is not much but it will suffice.
Even though i am not sure what to choose i open the evolution window again while looking at choices.
Cliff snake {stone variant}golem {dacite variant}Stone devourer (lost species [unique]Blood stained stone (new species)
" they all have their unique advantages, but for future development the best ones are cliff snake and devourer.... Ahh i am still conflicted what to choose since i don't know what will i lose from other species.
Calming my mind i rolled to the middle of cave and yelled in my mind. "Evolve - { Stone devourer (lost species[unique]) }"
Ding!
With my soul trembling in excitement i read the message.
You have started evolving during this period of time you will be vulnerable,but when you evolve you will receive new abilities and your body toughness will be improved by a large amount.evolution processes will last 3 days

I feel my body breaking apart in strips of stone as my core pops out, all the stone that has fallen of my body suddenly started levitating and surrounding my core forming an cocoon. Even though the process was quite painful i endured it because of excitement rush i received.
Enduring the pain i focus on other windows that have appeared.
Congratulations! you are now sole devourer in existence, but be careful if you are discovered by surrounding kingdoms you will be hunted down. It is known that devourers have incredible potential and few kingdoms have fallen in past as a result of their retaliation. It is considered that devourers were made by evil gods since they absorb other creatures which led to belief that you consume souls.
"Woah.. and here i finally hoped i can live a bit calmer and safer life, at least i will not die easily!...i think"
It is so boring..right now
`But how do i pass these boring three days? though i do wonder what skills i gained as a result of this evolution?´
Calming down i quietly wait for these three days to pass.It has been three days since i started my evolution process.I can see few cracks forming on my cocoon as they continuously spread for next hour.When they finnaly spread so much until the cocoon is unable to keep its shape it breaks apart in countless small strips of rock.
Hitting the ground lightly i instinctively spread my arms to ease my impact for the first time in 4 months.I find my self unable to stand here comfortably as i crouch and crawl out of cave.Staring at my pale white arms i mutter in a soft voice.
"Oh my hands.. oh my legs how have i missed four of you. You guys have no idea how hard it is without you."

However i do not recognize my voice as it sounds weird..good kind of weird it is neither a female nor a male voice but it seems to have a calming effect.Stretching my body i notice that currently i am only 110 cm tall like a child with crystal-like amethyst colored hair that falls down to my tailbone. I also notice that my hair seems to absorb any kind of natural energy in my surroundings at a slow pace, be it sunlight or mana.
After few minutes of focusing on feeling of absorption i stare at my hands. They are completely white while from the first 1/3 of my finger stretch amethyst colored 15 cm claws that combine with my pale white hands. Thinking how it would be a problem if a human saw my claws i imagine them retracting back to look like normal fingers.
But they suddenly start pulling back leaving only slightly sharp amethyst colored nails.
Moving around a little i also notice that my legs are a bit different from human ones. Instead of normal feet the front has only 3 lizard like amethyst colored claws and one claw that emerges from my heel that extends a bit longer for balance.

----author note end
"Ughh this could be problem as well" i mutter softly and try imagine my claws retracting again. however nothing happens this time since they are part of my biology i guess. Frowning slightly i think to myself.
`I guess i could use some bigger pair of tough shoes to cover this up, but i can feel that the strength and balance with this type of legs is several times better than normal human feet.´
I decide to test it out by running up to wall, i crouch down like runner athletes do preparing to run up the wall. I lower my center as i suddenly burst out with three times the speed i could run back on earth.Running about 12 meters up the wall i am unable to go any further as i fall down heavily, however the structure of my legs absorb all the fall damage i would have received otherwise.
"I have to be able to run at least another 13 meter up the cliff if i want to get out, but i guess i could use some stones that stick out as to grab on to them with my claws"
Thinking about the ways i would be able to get outside i remember something suddenly.
"What a fool i am! my stats and abilities i still have not checked them out!"
I whisper to my self silently in a excited voice.
"Show information about me!"

"Hahaha this is going to be awesome!I will allocate these stat points tomorrow after i finish checking my abilities. but right now i exhausted all my energy when evolving so i should rest.."
I probably got that infamy by killing the royal guard i guess, in the future i will have to be more careful since i do not want people to chase after me only because of my infamy...but i guess they would chase me anyway since i am technically a monster after all.

The world traveler from the future
The world, under the guide of the System, was prospering. The Dungeons gifted untold riches to those brave enough to challenge them, and the System watched and helped those who were willing to complete its Quests. But not Charles. As soon as he appeared inside a dark cave, the system told him that he was an anomaly, that he was not worthy of its gifts. His mind was damaged. His AI companion was convinced that he was in a world of sword and magic. All around, schemers and manipulators tried to play their part in a story that was thousands of years old. Spanning entire planes and worlds. And yet, he only saw what he wanted to see. For a while, it worked. Slowly, but inevitably, it became impossible. The threat was too big to ignore, the evidence too strong. He was just a pawn in a game so large that it was impossible to comprehend. At its center, the System. The System was not what it seemed. It was a tyrant, or maybe just a tool created by someone or something so powerful that it could control entire worlds. And it had declared him its enemy.
