Chapter 2: First Evolution &8211; Red Sala a closer , with clawed feet and beady green eyes Each claas around half a foot long, and looked to be dangerously sharp The sala on a fish
"How do I absorb this creature?&8221; Dorian asked Ausra, curious
"In your present state, it is extremely unlikely you will be able to absorb any creature without the aid of your Soul Spell Matrix Thanks to the work of His Worship, your Soul Spell Matrix will aid you in Absorption exactly 3 times If you wish to absorb this creature, simply command me and I will assist you&8221; Ausra’s cool voice responded in Dorian’s head
"What happens when I absorb it?&8221; He asked back
"Because this is your first Absorption, your current unset body will take on many of the characteristics of your first Absorption&8221; Ausra replied
"Is there any way you can list those characteristics toto plan ahead He felt excited as he considered the possibilities
The shock of dying and being reborn in this strange neorld, in a strange new body, wasn’t so Dealing with unexpected situations and proble as he could distance himself from the issue and focus on the present, he could deal with his shock later
He would figure out how to get back home, if he could at all, later
"No, not presently Your Soul Spell Matrix is too low a level, your Soul wouldn’t be able to bear the strain&8221; A cool response back
"So it’s hit oranother look at the salaed, "Well, it’s better than a fish, and the sooner I’m not a blob, the better&8221; His own personal safety was of paramount importance now He could innately tell that his present for that salae&8221; Ausra’s cool voice replied Ihtly The syan to whirr and vibrated, and a powerful beaht flashed out froht burnt through the air and slareen scaled salaister the attack, it was already dead The beaht vanished into the salaround, its eyes lifeless
Aitself towards Dorian It h water, sla thud
Dorian took it all in in a split second, shocked at the speed of the attack radiating in him In the split second he commanded Ausra to help hiinning Absorption&8221; The voice of Ausra broke Dorian froolden bead A crescendo of light flashed out covering both Dorian and the body of the Salamander, and all of a sudden, the world around Dorian transformed into a misty white landscape
"This is your Evolution Space&8221; A sht appeared in thein front of Dorian He looked at it for a htly confused
"Ausra? That’s you?&8221; He asked The area around hi and coely couldn’t sense his body, not even the blobbish forht replied, and then continued, "You have successfully absorbed a type of Red Salains-
74 Red Salaraded)
1 Myyr Dragon (Degraded)
1 various undetermined bloodlines too small to currently measure
"It’s reen?&8221; He queried The nuht read off had appeared in his side a chart that listed various attributes about the salaon is a creature renowned for it’s lustrous green scales This salaon bloodline running through its veins, just enough to allow it to gain some extreon’s green scales&8221;
"I see So what now?&8221; Dorian asked, unsure
"After you absorb a creature, you have the ability to combine, isolate, and withdraw its bloodlines To Evolve into a specific creature, you will need a sufficient amount of its bloodline for your Soul Spell Matrix to ith As you Evolve, it is possible to mix bloodlines, or absorb abilities from other bloodlines to create a more perfect bloodline&8221; Ausra continued,
"You can also absorb the latent energy from any dead creature’s Soul Spell Matrix, and use it to further your own, hastening your evolutions&8221;
"His Worship’s only goal was to create the perfect organism Of the billions of beasts and creatures he has researched, His Worship was unsure which was truly the row and Evolve, and prove through sheer strength what the perfect organism is&8221;
"Okay, okay So I can absorb the Red Salaht? What do you mean by isolate bloodlines?&8221; He returned back
"There are a countless nu creatures in the 30,000 worlds A creature’s strength and future growth is chiefly determined by a creature’s bloodline Most creatures are lith by their bloodlines, an aspect called bloodline shackles Breaking past these require one to evolve their bloodline, which is prohibitively difficult for nors&8221; Ausra continued,
"You have the ability to absorb all of the target’s bloodline, or just a part of it Absorbing different bloodlines will grant you different abilities and strengths, and change the makeup of your physical form&8221;
Dorian looked back over the screen in hisflowed about in the background, giving the area an ethereal feel
"What bloodline on here is the strongest? Is it the Myyr Dragon?&8221; Anything with Dragon in its na
"In terms of overall potential, yes However, this bloodline is very degraded&8221; Ausra responded
"Oh Does that mean you can’t absorb it? Or, rather, I can’t absorb it?&8221; Dorian returned
"No, it is possible using your Soul Spell Matrix to correct the daraded bloodline However, you will need a on’s bloodline if you wish to Evolve using it Your Soul Spell Matrix has all of His Worship’s research recorded in it, but it cannot create so&8221; Ausra’s response was detailed, helping hiht So what do you recomh
"His Worship believes that creating the perfect organis hybrid beasts that even His Worship ht noever, are far too weak to sustain a powerful hybrid In addition, your Soul is far too weak to sustain the physical form of any type of powerful hybrid beast, let alone a nor his chin This was co him,
"Aren’t there any bloodlines already stored in my matrix? If you have all this infor Kelly or whomever store bloodlines within it as well?&8221; He frowned
"Godking Yukeli is His Worship’s nahtly reproachful, "And His Worship lived in the Divine Realm, above the 30,000 worlds When He created the Children, His only desire was for the perfect organism to arise The Firstborn of His flock, He decided, would stand on its own, Evolving by chance&8221;
Dorian considered Ausra’s words for ahere seeardless, he needed to focus on the present first
"Alright Then let’s start with the Red Salamander bloodline, since we have the e&8221; Ausra replied
Ian to flash red Several words appeared in hisRed Salamander bloodline-
In just a few moments, the bloodline was completely absorbed A new set of words appeared before Dorian replacing the previous set
-Red Salae: (3/5) Young Adult &8211;
Dorian looked at the nue? What does that mean, specifically?&8221;
"The amount of Red Salay in your Soul Spell Matrix, was not enough to allow you to reach full s to develop the maturity of your physical form&8221;
As Ausra spoke, a new set of words appeared in front of Dorian
-Body Reconstruction in progress-
-Body Reconstruction co from Evolution Space-
A split second later, the misty world around Dorian vanished, and he found hi The world around him wavered briefly as his vision stabilized
Dorian blinked, surprised by the abrupt change
"Wait a moment I blinked!&8221; Dorian yelped reeted hi A pair of stubby red ar torso His blob like existence had been co Red Salamander
"It worked!&8221; He smiled, or tried to His lizard face didn’t fit hu the feeling ofsense of co hinize the strange feeling was co the , al to control an animal It also felt incredibly natural, however, theto him as a matter of course
"It’s warm…Ausra, what are the attributes or special aspects of a Red Salamander?&8221; He queried
"Red Salamander’s are omnivores, with a diet of both meat and plants or berries They have a ht is a unique method Red Salamanders can use as a substitute for food They possess no innate abilities They possess enhanced vision useful in catching prey&8221; Ausra’s voice was cool in his head
"Alright&8221; He s He could now see the world in muchhe was on actually appeared to be the side of a rather large, stony mountain The Red Sala hied peak The forested areas off to the side surrounded the ht next to the treeline, what he had rowls and roars of anih the forest A particularly loud roar had him snap his head back towards the top of the e, black and white spotted panther had just appeared on the top of the peak, letting loose an extre and several tall, a er As it roared, a large bird like creature suddenly swooped down fro so fast it was a blur even in Dorian’s enhanced vision The two gargantuan beings collided on top of theout an explosion of rock and dust
"Where the hell am I…&8221; He muttered as he took a few steps backwards The shower of rocks froan to tumble down, soht, Dorian turned around and scampered off into the treelineIf you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc ), Please let us know < report chapter > so we can fix it as soon as possible
