BoD was a double-edged sword.

Evan had gone over the limit of BoD during his fight with Faldo, and this was the end result; his soul's 'health values' had been reduced by 21% as the Skill's destruction energy rebounded at him.

Luckily, it wasn't permanent Soul Damage, so at the cost of a few potential levels, his soul would be returned to top shape.

It was unknown how many hours or days had passed, but Adaptive Evolution kept trying all the possible Evolutionary Paths.

It had detected an Optimal One before, but that one only applied if Evan had used a Class 3 Catalyst. However, Faldo's Heart was Class 2, so Adaptive Evolution had to scan through all possibilities once more.

With that message, Evan's clothes which he was wearing were dissolved by the liquids in the cocoon, with the destruction energy reducing them to nothing.

Thanks to Artemisia, his artifacts were not destroyed.

Thus, the transformation of Evan's physical body began.

The moment that the skill made that request, a tall black-haired woman appeared in the room where Evan's cocoon was kept.

Her appearance made all the security and magic formations placed there seem like a joke, as she held out her palm towards the cocoon and spoke one word.

◇ ◇ ◇

It was White.

White as far as the eye could see.

This scene reminded me of when I first met Artemisia.

'If that was really my 'first' meeting with her, that is...'

Just as I thought that, I heard a euphonic voice ring out from behind me; though it strangely felt like I was hearing it in my head at the same time.

[I'd rather not be compared with someone else, so why don't I change things up a bit?]

By the time I could make a full 180-degree turn, the scenery around me had transformed completely.

I now found myself standing in the middle of a verdant green field.

Perfectly trimmed grasses, fluffy white clouds floating across the clear blue sky, and a giant 'Sun' that appeared to be a lot closer than I remembered.

[That's not exactly a 'Sun' though...]

The voice once again rang out from 'behind' me, and I turned around to see that there was now a set of chairs and a table set up on a small elevated hill.

There was 'someone' already seated on one of the chairs, and that 'someone' pointed at the other seat and spoke with the same voice I had been hearing.

[You're finally here, Mr Bourne. Have a seat, this is going to be a long talk.]

It was a 'woman', with long black hair that cascaded down 'her' shoulders and to the ground, and a pair of multicoloured iridescent eyes that drew my attention more so than 'her' goddess-like beauty.

Seeing that 'she' didn't seem hostile in any way, I decided to oblige 'her'. Besides, I was curious about the way 'she' referred to me.

Not as 'Evan', but as 'Mr Bourne'.

After taking a seat, I voiced out my first question before 'she' could say anything else.

"If I may ask, you are...?"

In response, the 'woman' blinked lightly before gesturing to 'herself' and replying.

[Me? I'm the Planet you've been living on these past 3 years.]

'She' got up from 'her' seat and gave a small curtsy, 'her' voice continuing to ring out.

[Consciousness of the 'Prime World' "Aidos", at your service.]
