Chapter 615 The Evolution Begins

Chapter 615 The Evolution Begins

When Evan met Griselda earlier in the year, it was revealed that the teenage Elder Breed Vampire had been intending to go somewhere completely different but ended up in Duscon due to a spatial accident.

The cause, though she did not know, was the Wielder of the 'Child of Space' skill, who was conducting an experiment that interfered with all teleportation on the entire Dark Continent at that moment.

Their actions had displaced Griselda halfway across the Alpha continent; this was just an experiment.

An experiment they were still busy with when Thagol's message came and the reason Vaeri came instead.

Evan was honestly grateful this was the case as if it was the Second Finger they had to deal with, then only a member of 'The Five' could save them.

But still, Vaeri's presence had brought a question to the minds of everyone present who knew about the demons.

The Dimensional Rift on the Dark Continent, had not opened large enough for even Mid Rank demons to slip through.

Yet, there was already a Peak Rank Demon on Aidos, one whose existence was unknown until now.

But was she the only one?

That was the question that bugged the minds of David and Dandeyr.

Evan, had the answer to that question, and it wasn't the kind they wanted to hear.

Notwithstanding the now defunct 'Demon Lord' rank, Peak Ranks were the next highest demons after the Demon King.

Knowing that there were Demons on this level on Aidos was quite a shock.

|?This is quite bad. With this incident, that person's attention would be on the Alpha Continent for a while.

I have to hold back on my plans for Tarse until they lose interest, otherwise, I might make them come over in person. That's equivalent to a death sentence. ?|

Evan muttered to himself in a low voice as he walked up to his sword and picked it up.

?|Hopefully the Master of Dragondune remains wherever they are as well. ?|

The storm that was Vaeri had passed, and now it was time to deal with the aftermath.

The S-ranked and above combatants who had been locked out were now finally able to re-enter the city, and they quickly moved and helped to capture all the Demonic Hand Senior Members that Dandeyr had subdued with his Gravity Law energy earlier.

Healers came in to help the wounded, while the city lords and other higher-ups moved to check on the civilians and confirm the number of casualties.

The Adventurer's Guild Master and the many Vice GMs were also at work as well.

There were so many things to do; recovering monster corpses, adventurer and soldier corpses, finding out the exact number of combatants that had perished, analysing the damage to the city's infrastructure and so on.

All these were handled by the appropriate personnel involved, and they made sure that not even a single person who participated in the battle to the last moment did even the smallest amount of work.

Their names were all documented, as each one of them who had fought to defend Lacertilia and its citizens, was well deserving of an award.

David and Malaya, members of the Royal Family, assured them of this.

Speaking of David, the shock that came from his reveal as a Hero was still fresh in the minds of all those present, and at every given time, he felt numerous gazes on him.

The Anomalies were also the target of attention, as it had gotten out that they were the ones who ended the dungeon break.

You mind doing me a favour? ?|

"Hmm? What is it? And shouldn't you put that down and wash your hands, the blood's getting all over your clothes."

|?Oh, right. ?|

The boy deactivated his mystic eyes, revealing his clear grey-coloured pupils as he used water magic to wash both his hands, and the heart in front of him.

Eliza wanted to move towards him, but her shadow seemed to come alive and hold her in place, while Evan then continued his words to David.

|?About that favour. Can I leave myself, as well as my party members in your care? Basically, put us under your protection for a while.

Leader's Orders. ?|

"?!"

David's eyes widened when he heard Evan's last two words. His Hero title seemed to come alive within him and exert some kind of binding force on his body.

"You...!"

He knew what Evan had just done. It was something he hadn't used since he came to Aidos, but it had always been there.

It was also the reason why he wasn't worried about Laurene betraying him when he fed her information about the future.

His Privilege as the 'Leader of the Seven Heroes'.

Before David's brain could even finish formulating what he wanted to say to the boy, Evan abruptly tossed the Dragon's Heart into his mouth.

"...what?"

He could only react in such a dumbfounded manner, as not even Dandeyr had expected Evan to devour the energy core of another existence just like that.

It was absurd.

Immediately he did, the energy of the law of evolution burst out from Evan's body and pushed back everyone within a 50-metre radius, Dandeyr included.

A series of notifications then began appearing in the boy's field of view.

|Adaptive Evolution has detected Class 2 High-Rank Evolutionary Catalyst: White High Dragon's Heart. |

|Minimum Requirement for Optimal Evolutionarily path is Class 3. |

|Conditions Met. |

|WARNING! Host's Vessel is currently in Critical Condition. Repairs Required Immediately. |

|Releasing Energy Isolated for Evolutionary Process. |

|Required Energy-Possessed Energy Ratio= 1.5:2.5|

|All Requirements Fulfilled|

|Due to current circumstances, Evolutionary Process would commence Immediately. |

|Good Night, Host. |

With those last three words, Evan's vision blacked out.
