After just a quick scan over his status, Marcus' eyes went wide in shock, and he stopped midair.
He knew that his evolution would make him far stronger, but not to this degree.
The first thing that caught his attention was the three new titles he had received. Just from their names alone he could tell that they were likely unbelievably powerful.
His Great Spirit title had changed to become Supreme Spirit, which was expected. But the other two, First to Reach the peak and Hallowed One were complete surprises.
The only other change to this section of his status was his two Embodiment Skills. Both had evolved to become stronger, but it was hardly comparable to the drastic changes of his stats, Supreme Skills, and titles.
Next came his skills, which were mostly the same save for some of them going up in level. Along with Light and Dark magic, a few others had reached the maximum level.
Finally, he examined his race abilities and specter powers.
In each section he found two new entries that had not been there before his evolution, along with his Ruler race abilities being transformed into Absolute Ruler of light and Absolute Ruler of Darkness.
---
< Sovereign of Spirits >
- You have reached the pinnacle of the spiritual realm, and as such, no spirit may oppose you and all spirits below the rank of Great Spirit are compelled to follow your will.
< Overlord of Undeath >
- You have achieved one of the highest evolutions of undead. Other undead lower level than you without the race ability Overlord of Undeath are drawn to you and unable to disobey your commands. Even higher level undead will see you in a favorable light and may follow you of their own volition.
< Howl of the Damned >
- Able to release a spiritually charged wave of sound from your mouth. All those with weak wills will find their bodies and souls shattered, while even the strong will be unable to shake off the baleful voices.
< Ecto Duplicate >
- Create copies of yourself using spiritual energy. Each Ecto Duplicate's strength will be determined by the amount of spiritual energy used in its creation. There is no limit to the number of duplicates that can be created other than the skill and available energy of the user.

"These are all really incredible." Marcus murmured once he finished reading what his new race abilities and specter powers could do.
He then checked out his new Absolute Ruler abilities and found that they were the reason that his light and darkness magic skills had suddenly shot up to max level.
The two powers also made him completely immune to any light or darkness type attacks other than his own. Even the Great Spirit of Light and the Great Spirit of Darkness could no longer harm him with their magic. Though that was not an issue anyway thanks to Sovereign of Spirits ability.
"I suppose all that's left to do now is check the message the Administrator sent me."
Mentally operating the windows created by his Personal Status unique skill, Marcus found the mail section and read what the Administrator had sent him.
'Hello again, Marcus. Seems like you finally managed to acquire the last item you needed to evolve, so I wanted to congratulate you. You're the first to ever achieve one of the secret highest quality evolutions that I set up. Well, technically you're also the second since you're both a Transcended Ghost and a Supreme Spirit at the same time. Talk about lucky.
But enough about your evolution. The real reason I've contacted you is to give you a warning. Forces outside of Mirrion have been making some big moves, and I'm pretty sure something is going to happen soon. There's still one of those contraband grimoires lurking around somewhere, and despite my best efforts, I haven't been able to locate it.
If someone uses it to summon more of those creatures, you know the ones, I'll probably need to call on you for help. Now that you're a Supreme Spirit you'll need to step up and protect the world. Oh, and on an unrelated note, tell your friends to be wary of deep water. I can't say anymore but I'm sure at least one of them is clever enough to figure out what I mean.'
Sincerely,
Your favorite Administrator.
P.S. As you already surmised, you and your wife weren't biologically compatible before. But during your evolution, I went in and did a little work to fix that. The chances still aren't high, but you've got about a one in a million shot now. Good luck.'
With that embarrassing closing remark, Marcus had finished reading the message the Administrator had sent him.
