Chapter 729 Talented Familiars
-----
In a couple of minutes, I gave Draco, Titan, and Arachne some Talents, they all had three Talent options, but this time they were much easier to choose based on their strengths, weaknesses, and what they lacked.
-----
[Name]: [Draco]
[Type]: [Dragon] [Lizard] [Knight]
[Rank]: [C]
[Race]: [Red Scaled Infernal Wyvern]
[Talent]: [Dragon Knight: ★]
[Health Points]: [6000/6000] (+1100)
[Mana Points:] [3500/3500] (+1100)
[Strength]: [3700] (+1400)
[Agility]: [2700] (+1400)
[Vitality]: [3000] (+700)
[Intelligence]: [3700] (+700)
[Dexterity]: [2000] (+700)
[Buff]: [+250 HP] [+200 Strength] [+100 Agility]
[Skill]: [Blazing Wyvern Breath++] [Magic Resistant Wyvern Scales++] [Rapid Flight++] [Wyvern Claws++] [Dragon Knight's Scale Armor++] [Draconic Blazing Sword++]
[Awakening Skill]: [True Fire Dragon's Breath++]
[Title]: [Draconian Servant]
-----
Draco had managed to evolve into a C Rank Familiar as he was already at his base a D++ Rank, his stats aren't as impressive as the bugs though, but they were still pretty good once the Talent Bonuses were applied.
He now attained the ability to take a more human-like posture, transform his scales into a knight-like red armor, and summon a sword made of draconic flames. His new Skills and Titles boost his defensive stats and offense stats the most, while not doing much for his agility, which he already had plenty for now, alongside the ability to fly.
-----
[Name]: [Titan (Awakened)]
[Type]: [Ogre] [Magician] [Shaman]
[Rank]: [C]
[Race]: [Red Orc Druid King]
[Talent]: [Spirit Shaman: ★]
[Health Points]: [3000/3000] (+1100)
[Mana Points]: [6000/6000] (+1400)
[Strength]: [2800] (+700)
[Agility]: [2000] (+700)
[Vitality]: [2800] (+1100)
[Intelligence]: [3700] (+1400)
[Dexterity]: [2000] (+700)
[Buff]: [+250 MP] [+200 Intelligence] [+100 Dexterity]
[Skill]: [Dragon Spirit's Breath++] [Glacial Spirit's Icicles++] [Thunder Spirit's Lightning++] [Protection Spirit's Barrier++] [War Spirit's Enhancement++] [Volcanic Spirit's Wrath++] [Light Spirit's Healing Embrace++]
[Awakening Skill]: [Elemental Spirit's Resonance++]
[Title]: [Spiritualist]
-----
Similarly to Draco, Titan had yet to evolve, so once I applied all the accumulated Spirit Orbs for Ogre-type Monsters I got from Hasan, he was evolved to a C Rank Familiar. He has become even more useful now as a Spirit Shaman.
He gained a stronger fire attribute magic spell that brings the wrath of volcanic sprits, causing a hue area of effect attack that can damage many foes at once. And lastly, a healing light that heals many allies at once.
His Title complement such Skills, increasing their Effects by +100% and decreasing their Mana Cost by -50%.
Also, thanks to my recent Awakening Skill reaching an even higher level, all Awakened Cards I created now had a unique Awakening Skill, which further expanded the Familiar's utility.
And lastly, for Arachne...
-----
[Name]: [Arachne (Awakened)]
[Type]: [Arachnid] [Bug] [Dark] [Poison]
[Rank]: [C+]
[Race]: [Giant Black Arachneia]
[Talent]: [Weaver: ★]
[Health Points]: [6500/6500] (+1100)
[Mana Points]: [3500/3500] (+1100)
[Strength]: [5700] (+1400)
[Agility]: [3300] (+1400)
[Vitality]: [4700] (+700)
[Intelligence]: [2500] (+700)
[Dexterity]: [3300] (+700)
[Buff]: [+250 Strength] [+200 Vitality] [+100 Intelligence]
[Skill]: [Deadly Venomous Jaws++] [Impenetrable Exoskeleton Armor++] [Masterful Silk Production++] [Piercing Spear Leg Attack++] [Lethal Thread Mastery++] [Weaver of Destiny++]
[Awakening Skill]: [Spiderweb Domain++]
[Title]: [Thread Master]
-----
I decided to go for the rarest of the Talents available, "Weaver" which enhanced her ability to use the threads she can produce already. Lethal Thread Mastery makes her silk sharper and capable of even cutting through metal, while Weaver of Destiny allows her to improve the Luck of herself and allies whose her threads are connected to by +50%.
Lastly, her Thread Master Title enhances her Stats by +300 when using lethal threads and increases the thread's ability by giving them the power to ignore 50% of their defenses.
Overall, all three of them became so different than before that it felt like they were Spirits rather than disposable Familiars. And because they were given the General Title, they receive a large boost to their stats, making them stronger than anybody else within their same kin.
Quite spectacular, isn't it?
"This new power is sure interesting." Draco commented. "I will use it to serve you better, master." n(-OvElbIn
"Hmmm, the spirits of the land respond to my calling much easier." Titan pointed out.
"Master, can I weave you a beautiful shirt?" Arachne asked.
"Well, do as you want while we have free time." I shrugged. "Even though you can be resummoned any time, I have to admit your efforts are the reason we won this battle, thanks."
"Master..."
"You thanked us?"
"Ahhh~ There's no problem!"
They were quite flattered, as I left them on their own devices alongside Fenrir, as I walked back to the castle's backyard where I meet with my Spirits and Friends, little Ruby has been patiently waiting for me to arrive.
"You're finally back! Ruby has been expecting his evolution for a while now." Eleanora said. "Oh, you're Rank 4 now?! This means we could also evolve... Wait, what about the new Vampires?! You can summon two more!"
"Yeah, that'll be a bit troublesome for now so let's leave it after Ruby's issue is done for." I said, checking the young dragon's status.
He was already Level 50, his max Level, and was currently D++ Rank. His Spirit Orb Rank was now Rank 2 Initial Stage. Unlike people, monsters can't summon spirits, but as their Spirit Orbs grow stronger, they also become much stronger, undergoing evolutions, something people can't do.
If his Orb Rank was 2, he was more than ready for evolution, even more at max level, but thanks to my authority over his existence, I was able to inhibit his automatic evolution so I can further improve it and make it even stronger, using materials and a specialized magic circle, of course.
In just a couple of minutes, it was mostly done for thanks to Hendrick and Eleanora's support, and the materials we used right now were the ones I was given for free by Darkus, the huge Black Draconic Lizard Demon that served Satan, whose body had become something very similar to a Demonic Dragon, powerful dragons that inhabit Hell.
"Be grateful, little Ruby, yesterday we were given the most premium of materials available! How about you become a Demonic Dragon for a change?"
"Raaar!" Ruby wagged his tail happily and excitedly.
"I see that you're an eager one! Let's begin then!" I laughed. "Monster Evolution Magic Circle, Activate."
FLAAAASH!
