Novel Full Chapter 800 - Evolution
-----
Something strange had happened, which even left the Hivemind shocked, Manationia had turned into a colorful and big egg! But this happened not out of thin air, without him knowing about it, a weakened phantom clone of Veronica decided to sacrifice herself and fuse with Manationia, deciding that this was the best way for her to survive which also gave her the greatest chances of living in the upcoming battle against the relentless Hivemind. Using this leftover power given to her by the phantom clone, Manationia gathered the divine power she was given into the core of her soul, and through fusing herself with Octo, the two souls converged into one and became an underwent an evolution!
Manationia was covered in a shell, as her entire body began to dissolve itself and reform once more through the shape and image of the phantom clone that gave her this divine power, but fused with her appearance and her powers, suddenly, a new entity emerged from the egg as the Hivemind managed to crack it, a bright red and orange light emerged from the egg's cracks, as the body of the new Manationia slowly started to surge from within! The Hivemind looked at the scene speechless, without being able to approach due to how bright the light was, which managed to even burn his divine darkness.
"Unngh…! W-What the heck is this?! How is it possible for you… to become a god?!"
The Hivemind already realized it, this light Manationia emanated was not just slightly divine, it was pure divine power! She had ascended into a divine being, a god- no, a goddess! Within the egg, several rays of light came out, crushing the eggshell and slowly disintegrating all the eggshell into particles of light! In just a few seconds, the eggshell was completely gone, and what was left was the humanoid body of the brand new Manationia.
Her new body was humanoid indeed, and not the same as her original race, it glowed brightly as if it was completely covered in bright yellow-gold light, and it seemed feminine, with wide hips and a big chest, beautiful curves and slender arms and legs. Her face seemed human-like was well, and when her eyes opened, a fiery golden flame flickered within them, her pupils were yellow-gold and shone brighter than the sun itself.
FLAAAAASH!
"Uuaaggh…! Shadow Barrier…!"
The Hivemind couldn't see her anymore, her light was so blinding and strong that it burned through him completely, he began to slowly step back instinctively, as he tried to protect himself from Manationia's new light using his shadow barrier. Manationia light continued to burn through everything as it started to generate shockwaves of blinding light everywhere, these shockwaves started to spread all around the entire world, as if they were announcing the birth of a new goddess.
The Hivemind couldn't believe what he was seeing, being left utterly speechless, he tried to make some sense of the things his eyes were now admiring. Manationia had not only just become a goddess but had completely changed, it felt as if this person wasn't Manationia anymore, it had become someone completely different. The light over her body slowly spread into her back, revealing her beautiful and glossy brown skin, with a color akin to chocolate. Various areas of her body were covered in yellow-gold feathers, alongside red, orange, and other colorful feathers, making her resemble some sort of beautiful harpy goddess.
Her legs were those of her original race, sharp and scaled, with large claws made of gold now, and with the scales also being as sharp as gold metal, and incredibly resilient and hard! Her hands also had sharp metallic gold-covered claws, which were obviously harder than the actual gold metal. And behind her, she had a pair of beautiful and colorful wings, which extended up to five meters long each, so gloriously beautiful that they emanated an arc of bright rainbow light that encompassed everything. And even more, she had long and blonde hair that reached up to her ankles, waving around beautifully.
Her human-like face surprised the Hivemind, he also easily realized that she had undergone an incredible change way above his own expectations, she had truly become a being that could be called a goddess… However, despite her serious expression, Manationia quickly realized her changes and felt creeped out.
"Uegh! W-What the heck is this body?! And where are you, Octo?!" She cried, quickly changing the mood of her entire appearance and her evolution, as a third crimson-red eye opened in the middle of her forehead and spoke to her.
"I'm here! I think I merged with you or something…" Said Octo. "This is pretty weird, but it seems that thanks to the help of my creator's clone's divine power, you've managed to breakthrough into the next level, and became a goddess pretty much! Congratulations!"
POOF!
Octo suddenly emerged out of Manationia's body once more, but this time he had changed as well and looked like a bigger octopus, in fact his upper half looked like that of a girl- Wait, was Octo a girl this entire time?!
"Uwah! W-What?! I evolved? This body is so weird! I became an alien now… This is so gross…" Sighed Manationia. She felt comfortable with her previous body appearance, but this humanoid form made her feel like she was a gross alien. Octo in the other case still had a more similar appearance to her previous appearance, but her upper half was that of a young girl around her late teens with pale white skin, short black hair, and a single crimson red eye in the middle of her face, resembling a cute cyclops.
"Octo, were you a girl this entire time?!" Asked Manationia as she admired the adorable Octo.
"I-I guess? I didn't had any gender before, but the phantom defined it for me for some reason…" She sighed. "Now I am a weird thing they call Scylla or something… Anyways! You have to fight that guy! Manationia, the future of this planet depends on you!"
