-----

[Jobs Available]

[Dungeon Creator], [Divine Light Soul Valkyrie], [Abyssal Shadow Monarch], [Legendary Mechanic], [Dimensional Traveler], [Hecate], [Goddess of Misfortune], [Divine Demon Queen Castle], [Goddess of Desires], [Divine Machine Monarch], [Black Thunder Catastrophe], [Chaotic Demon Queen Magician], [Horseman of War], [Horseman of Death], [Great Deity of Souls and Death] (New!), [Demon God Queen] (New!), [Eurynome] (New!)

Veronica glanced at her available Job Options with great interest, there were three new Jobs available.

One of them was Great Deity of Souls and Death, and the other was Demon God Queen… These two were within the aspect of "normal" to an extent, while the latest new Job, Eurynome, was the strangest one.

Even more, as she knew that Ervas had taken the Ophion Job, which was the Great Titan King of Greek Mythology who had fathered the Cosmic Egg with Eurynome… It meant that Veronica got the Job regarding the Great Titan Queen and the mother of such egg.

Veronica recalled through her Memory Library Skill that it was said that Cronus and Rhea dethroned Ophion and Eurynome after wrestling against them, while other sources stated that Ophion was beaten by Eurynome herself after he boasted to have created all of the existence…

It was the truth that he had helped with his seed for the creation of the Cosmic Egg, but he had not completely created all of the creation that came from it.

Eurynome and Ophion were the mother and father of the physical world, representations of the Demiurge, the divine architect of God, who created the physical world and separated it from the spiritual world.

Veronica wondered if such figures existed in Kosmos, the Greek World where her clone and that of Ervas and Kireina were exploring.

"I can pick an old Job I believe… it should max right after I pick it so… This one!"

Ding!

[You changed Jobs to the [Abyssal Shadow Monarch] Job!]

[All Your Stats have increased!]

[The Levels of several Skills have increased!]

[The [Light Attribute Magic: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Shadow Demon Monarch Queen Magic: Level 1] Skill!]

[The [Deformed Soul: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Myriad Soul: Level 1] Skill!]

[The [Nyx: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Great Nyx: Level 1] Skill!]

Three Skills awakened! And Veronica clearly felt their awakening, as her Soul seemed to stabilize at last thanks to Deformed Soul evolving into Myriad Soul. Her Grotesque Mind had awakened into this, and it seemed that such a Skill actually showcased a state of the soul and not only the mind.

As the Skill awakened, it enhanced and stabilized her very soul, now, her soul was fused with millions of other smaller souls, and the many wandering thoughts were stabilized at long last, bringing her a bit more relief.

Her Light Attribute Magic became Shadow Demon Monarch Queen Magic, bringing her a myriad of new possibilities and the power to manipulate the dark spectrum of light, darkness, and shadows, to a greater extent.

And Nyx became Great Nyx, quite possibly bringing even greater bonuses to her stat growth.

Ding!

[Job Proficiency earned, the Level of your Job has increased to Level 100!]

Seeing that her Job reached the max level, Veronica quickly decided to change Jobs once more, and the one she picked up was a rather obvious choice!

Ding!

[You changed Jobs to the [Eurynome] Job!]

[You learned the [Eurynome: Level 1] Skill!]

[All Your Stats have increased!]

[The Levels of several Skills have increased!]

[The [Mana Storage Armor: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Divine Power Storage Body: Level 1] Skill!]

[The [Kelsus & Anir Fusion: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Demon God Queen: Level 1] Skill!]

[The [Soul Parasite: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Divine Soul Parasite: Level 1] Skill!]

[The [Self-Enhancement: Family: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Divine Self-Enhancement: Family: Level 1] Skill!]

[The [Life and Death Cycle: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Divine Transmigration Cycle: Level 1] Skill!]

[The [Hades: Level 10] Skill has awakened into the [Great Hades: Level 1] Skill!]

The moment Veronica changed Jobs, her entire being evolved again!

This Job… indeed! It was this Job the one that would bring her the power…! These Skills, they were changing her, upgrading her, and enhancing her!

She had already acquired power and abilities equivalent to a deity, but now, such power was overwhelming, and was reaching yet another level!

Her physical body became the storage for divine power, and an even more refined form of Mana and the infamous Death and Life Cycle had become… a Divine Transmigration Cycle!

And Veronica felt it… within the shared Divine Realm, the white egg was beginning to move faster… small cracks began to emerge, as the light started to come out from the cracks!

-----

After seeing Veronica evolve, Ervas decided to quickly evolve as well to be able to catch up with everything going on.

There was also something deep within his very being that called him to evolve at last… something within his very self!

[Available Evolution Options]

[Rank 13: Great Divine Chimera Demon Beast King of Life and Nature]

"Only one evolution… well, this makes things easier," thought Ervas.

Ding!

[You choose the [Rank 13: Great Divine Chimera Demon Beast King of Life and Nature] Evolution Option!]

The moment Ervas selected the evolution option, his entire being began to glow with an aura of bright yellow light, coating his entire body with it as if it were engulfing him!

The cocoon of bright yellow light continued to grow larger, as small grass and plants began to grow over it, which quickly grew into bigger plants, until they became large trees that kept growing around, expanding and coating Ervas with a cocoon of wood!

The wood continued to expand, creating branches covered with bright green leaves and bearing fruits!

All around Ervas, portals to the outside world opened, as Kritias itself began to pour its own Life Energy and Magic Energy into his evolution, overflowing him with amazing amounts of power!

Ervas mind began to overflow with information, the information from all life around the Seashore, and perhaps even farther away… even the world's core was suddenly and willingly giving Ervas Life Energy as if he were the monarch, the deity that governed over it!

The wood around his body continued to grow, until he slowly became an enormous floating tree in the middle of the emptiness, growing with larger branches and greener leaves…

It continued to expand and grow bigger and bigger, covering a large amount of space, many of the people within the Worlds of the Divine Realm glanced at the immense tree working from Ervas… his body began to dissolve alongside his soul, as it was assimilated and merged into the power of life and the tree…

Ervas felt a beautiful soothing feeling, something like the embrace of a mother… of life.

Within this life, he suddenly felt a hint of life that came from someone… someone he didn't remember her appearance yet knew who it was.

"Mother…" he murmured, the little bit of life energy was sent from far away, and it had a unique feeling… he believed it could have been his mother.

His evolution continued to absorb life, but never took it away from living people, only a little bit was taken away, small energy that was added to him, over accumulating into an enormous mass of energy.

And then… the bark of the enormous tree began to crack open.

Crack… crack!
