Chapter 786: Maria's Evolution Requirements

-----

(Maria's POV)

Everything finally ended, even though we had yet to even resolve the primary problem of that city. To think we would be trapped and cornered to this extent… The Warlocks of the Underworld were truly a force to be reckoned with.

However, we perseverated and won at the end, even despite all the battles and the desperation. My dear daughter did her best too, fighting to protect everyone, and even Celes seemed to have grown much stronger from this challenge, and so did his mother.

Although I would have preferred to let them level up in a safer environment, there's little safety in a place like this, there was no helping it, I suppose.

Everyone else quickly gathered at our side as Belphegor finally kicked the bucket. His gigantic body was beginning to slowly dissolve into miasma, so I quickly decided to store him inside of my Inventory so he wouldn't contaminate the desert.

However, as I did that, part of his body turned into darkness, which was automatically devoured by my Soul, which felt slightly weird… but at the same time, granted me a lot of power.

I suppose I was hungry deep down, although I wasn't thinking about eating at all, that's what I usually do. Eating strong souls of materials can give me bonus stats or even new Skills after all..

But this…

FLAAASH! FLAAASH! FLAAASH!

My body continued glowing brightly with each little fragment of darkness or whatever it was being absorbed, making my entire soul feel stronger.

And as if… I was comprehending something deeper.

Ding!

[Due to the hunger of your Soul after such a huge battle, you've automatically absorbed all compatible fragments, items, or artifacts.]

[You have absorbed [Void Fragment] x32]

[You have absorbed [Corrupted Spirit Crystal Fragment] x8]

[You have absorbed [Shattered Dimensional Void Core] x1]

[MP] has increased by +250.000]

[Magic] has increased by +150.000]

[Aether] has increased by +100]

[You learned the [Void Devourer: Lv1] Title Skill.]

[You learned the [Spirit Energy Manipulation: Lv1] Support Skill.]

[Several Skills have Leveled Up.]

[Your Soul rumbles in satisfaction, burping a bit…]

[You're slowly beginning to comprehend one of the Divine Concepts that might bring you closer to [Ascension].]

[Your [Divine Ember] has grown much larger within your Soul.]

"Burp…" I muttered. "W-Wait? Huh? It feels like my own Soul has a personality of its own or something! What in the world am I even becoming?"

Anyways, I got stronger so that's what matters at the end! Let's check the new Skills while everyone comes back…

[Void Devourer: Lv1]

A Unique Title Skill given to those that have done the impossible and devoured the Void itself, a feat only capable by entities that live outside of the World's restraints and laws.

The [Void Of All Things] is watching you.

Grants the ability to easily trespass through Dimensional and Spatial Boundaries with little effort, and also grants the ability to negate forceful transfer into other Dimensions or Spaces.

It is possible to enchant as many allies as you can with a similar effect, protecting them from being dragged away into a different dimension or space.

Additionally, with each Skill Level, increases Affinity with Space and Void Element by +25%.

Okay I guess this is perfect after what we went through, but what with that creepy message? Who is the [Void of All Things]?! Sounds eerie…

[Spirit Energy Manipulation: Lv1]

A Special Ability given to those who have harnessed and controlled Spiritual Energy for a long time and can naturally generate it within their bodies.

Grants the ability to manipulate Spirit Energy and conjure special Spirit Magic with it, without the requirement of possessing a Spirit related to it.

It is also possible to enhance weapons, armor, spells, or skills with Spiritual Energy for greater effects.

By harnessing and absorbing more Spirit Energy, it is possible to increase the [Aether] Stat further.

Increases Spirit Magic and Spirit Energy Power and Effects by +100%, with an additional +25% with each Skill Level.

When contracting a Spirit, the contracted Spirit might receive a Special Evolution and greater benefits, which increase based on Skill Level.

Oh wow, this one's good too! So this sparkly and white energy in my hands is Spirit Energy, huh? Pretty amusing, this is what Emeraldine often uses!

However, all of this wasn't everything there was to it, as new clues about how to Evolve appeared…

Ding!

[Because of having meet some of these requirements, the requirements for a Special Evolution have been revealed.]

[Absorb the Essence of the Void: 10/10]

[Absorb the Essence of the Spirits: 5/5]

[Devour S Rank Monster Cores: 0/10]

[Devour a Dimensional Artifact: 1/1]

[Devour a Divinity: 0/1]

[Comprehend a Divine Concept: 0/1] [Progress: 53%]

"Evolution… Requirements?!" I asked in surprise. "Hey System…"

[Indeed, this is something that has been just revealed. There is a special evolution awaiting for you if you can get all these requirements. If not… Well, you'll get stuck where you are.]

"Wait, I am?! I didn't know S Rank was the end of the road!"

[Calm down, it is not… But you need to work a bit harder to evolve now. Because after S Rank, you'll be stepping into the Realm of the Gods.]

"The Realm… of the Gods?"

[A very weak God though, but it will be your first step before going further. Don't you want to kill that bastard of Odin? Then this is perfect, right?]

I guess he's right, this is ideal… Also has he become nicer and more empathetic.

[I have simply become smarter and can talk more, I am the same asshole as always.]

Wow… okay, no need to read my mind, bastard…

[I'll do whatever I want.]

"Ugh, I prefer the illusion you were acting nicer…" I sighed. "Anyways, what is this Divine Concept thing? I'm 53% done already? But what is it even all about?"

[A Divine Concept is the consolidation of your Elemental Affinities into a Unique Element of your own creation, a Concept that you've made, which will further change the world forever.]

[The reason why it is so hard for anything to surpass S Rank… is because they usually need to get this done.]

[And it's not easy.]

"Not easy? Well if I'm already over 50% I bet it's not THAT hard!"

[Don't get cocky!]
