Chapter 612: Fourth Evolution: Crimson Twilight

Carmel was inside the barrier along with Souta. He watched as a white energy slowly enveloped Souta like a cocoon.

Thud!

The white cocoon throbbed one time. Then, it throbbed again in the next second. The throbbing increased and slowly a dense amount of best feram spread inside the barrier.

Thud! Thud!

Carmel didn’t have a problem with it. He continued watching the evolution warily.

He was a person at Four Shackles Realm, in other words, SSS-rank. A person at his level could even kill a fourth evolution monster so he wasn’t fazed at all while facing the dense best feram.

People at his level wouldn’t need to form a party to subjugate at fourth stage monster. It would be a different person if the said monster was a fifth stage. A party of his level could only subjugate the weakest fifth stage. Yet, he could subjugate the fourth stage alone. There was a time when he couldn’t defeat a monster but he could at least go toe to toe with the said monster.

Just with this alone, he could see the difference between the fourth stage and the fifth stage was huge.

‘Another person at the level of early stages of Shackled Realm will be born in our Tenth Grain War…’ He said inwardly.

Fourth stage monsters were equal to Shackled Realm experts. As for Souta, he was sure that after the evolution his minimum strength will be at that level. After all, Souta had the strength to fight peak S-rank in his third stage. So, it wouldn’t be strange if his strength reach the Shackled Realm after his evolution.

What he was talking about wasn’t Souta’s full power…

This was also the reason why he personally took in-charge with the protection. If he was here, everything will flow smoothly.

‘What a strange monster… It’s even stronger than the monsters that Our Goddess keeps around.’

Carmel glanced at the floor and saw cracks forming on it. He raised his hands and his mana spread out, countering the best feram.



Souta looked at the seven choices in front of him. They were different and powerful in their own way. He thought that five evolution paths would appear but he was wrong.

His target evolution was also here but there were other two evolution paths with which he wasn’t familiar before his eyes.

Ferocious Shadow Eater and Crimson Twilight.

He glanced at the tiny details of the Ferocious Shadow Eater. Every ability of this type couldn’t be explained in small paragraphs of description bracket but it was enough for him to realize that this type was powerful.

Ferocious Shadow Eater was a type of goblin that could eat the shadows of every creature just like what its name suggests. Using the shadows, this monster could increase one’s power level, temporary boost of defense, attack, or energy, and recover any type of wound.

‘What a versatile ability…’

Souta thought deeply. If he was in a situation where he needed speed, he could use shadows to increase his speed.

But there must be a limit to it. The description didn’t say anything but he was sure about it.

He shook his head and read the description of Crimson Twilight.

What was this? One of the super branches of the Blood Goblin…

Why was he haven’t heard anything about this in the past? If it’s related to Blood Goblin he should’ve at least heard this type. But, he couldn’t recall anything no matter how much he racked his brain.

He sighed and looked at the description one more time.

This type of goblin has the power to freely control blood. It was versatile too.

In some sense, it’s almost the same as Ferocious Shadow Eater. The only difference was that Crimson Twilight was using blood and Ferocious Shadow Eater was using shadows.

Then, he glanced at his target evolution path… Compared to these two his target evolution path was nothing.

The other evolution paths seem okay but only these two certain paths give him more freedom.

Also, the description of these two wasn’t their full ability. There was more to it and he would only know it once he had chosen one of the two paths.

‘Arrr… Alright, I’ll take a gamble this time. Since these two look the same, I’ll randomly pick one…’

Souta closed his eyes and shuffled the two choices. No, his senses were too high so it’s useless. He should lower his senses first to the level of ordinary people in Imperium.

This is enough.

He randomly picked one of the two choices that he chose.

*Ding!*

Souta slowly opened his eyes and looked at the path that he had chosen.

[Selection complete.]

[Undergoing race evolution.]



Hmm?

Carmel who was watching the cocoon noticed something.

A powerful surge of energy exploded within the white cocoon. Electric like energy violently strikes in every direction. The stage quickly collapsed because of the lightning whips that came from the white cocoon.

The Shackled Realm experts who were maintaining the barrier turned serious. They quickly poured their mana to prevent the barrier from breaking.

“So this is evolution…”

He muttered to himself before his mana burst out of his body. He raised both of his hands and made a grabbing motion in the air.

A huge amount of mana was sandwiching the burst of energy coming from the white cocoon. It was preventing those dangerous dense energy whips from damaging the stage.

“Since he’s my subordinate, I would be held responsible for it. I don’t wanna pay for its restoration.”

With [Blood Field II], Souta felt that he could become an immortal if he combined it with the regeneration ability of parasites.

[Traits detected!]

[Please select one of the following options below!]

[Crimson Steal]

[True Grey Mania]

[Crimson Perception]

The three traits were extremely good. He wanted to get all of them but it was impossible. The [Crimson Steal] was a life steal ability. Every time he landed an attack on his opponent, he would receive 10 HP.

10 HP was nothing comparable to his thousands of health points. Ten points of health were nothing but in a battle with his current power level, it could bring a huge gap to his opponent.

After all, people at his level could exchange thousands of blows in just a minute.

Thousands of blows. Ten points per blow so it would at least help him last a little longer.

As for [True Grey Mania], it was a trait that increases his affinity in shadow and light attributes. It was good as he could master skills related to these two attributes easily and his attack power would increase too.

Not just that, it would affect the power of his Element Drive too.

As for [Crimson Perception], it was an ability that could let him sense any creatures that have blood flowing in their body within a diameter of twenty kilometers with him as the center.

Souta thought deeply about what he should choose. In the end, he chose the [Crimson Perception] as he felt that aside from his [Galaxy Eyes] he didn’t have any perception ability.

He didn’t need [Crimson Steal] as he had various abilities that could recover his health in the meantime. And, he also didn’t need [True Grey Mania] at this moment. He had [Yin Yang Bracelet] for this type of ability so he excluded it.

The only one left was [Crimson Perception].

*Ding!*
