Novel Full 366 New Evolution Paths
As I held the dungeon core in my hand, I noticed it was much different from the core I destroyed before. It was much shinier and looked just like an evolution stone but bigger. And now that it opened up a special section in my evolution panel, I had to take a look.
“Let’s see….” I mumbled as I opened the menus and found the special evolution tab. It brought up another set of evolutionary trees. “Let’s see, there are three paths….” One for the basic line, but it skips over Dragonic Princess and Dragonic Queen and jumps right to Dragonic Empress…. Then there is the right path which only had one choice lit up: Drakani Demigoddess. And then the left path, which also only had one choice, lit up: Ather Demigoddess…. “What is with these horrible names!?”
I frowned as I read the information on the two new choices. A Drakani Demigoddess was a mixed race of many different races that merged together to form a new race. This race needed to drink the blood of others to survive. While it was a mixed race, it was mainly a dragon bloodline with the abilities of other races mixed in. The blood drinking effect was due to a race called the Vampri which blood came in as the second most dominant.
As for Ather Demigoddess , it was also a mixed race with dragons being the most dominant, but it also had the Angelic race as its second most dominant bloodline, which gave them a more holy feel. And as for Dragonic Empress, it was just a much more powerful form of my current state. The thing that stood out the most for me was the Drakani Demigoddess bloodline which allowed me to do as I did now with my dragon form the same as the others, but it also allowed me to gain more power by drinking the blood of others.
In other words, I could gain experience points by drinking blood. The Ather Demigoddess bloodline did not have such an aspect and which was not very good. While I would not mind looking more holy, I decided to put aside the Ather Demigoddess bloodline. I did not want something that would be weaker overall. It really did not add much in the way of benefits. As for the Dragonic Empress bloodline, it was much more powerful than my current position as a regular dragonic. There were no added benefits, which came down to the last one, which was the Drakani Demigoddess bloodline.
But the question is could I drink the blood of others? Could I stand to bite into someone’s neck and drink their blood? From the description, I would need to feed on blood to keep myself sated, which meant I would need to take in blood regularly. “Faith, is there anything wrong?”
“Mmmm… this dungeon core is called an Evolution Core. It opens up special evolutionary paths for me. One of which I am unsure if I should take even though it might make me even stronger.” I replied as I looked at my menu screen.
“Oh, explain.” Diablo sat next to me and put his arm around my shoulder. I then began explaining to him what each choice was. He fell into deep thought for a few minutes before saying. “Well, you can just drink my blood. I have no issues. If you need blood to keep yourself satiated, then I am willing to offer you mine. Especially if it will make you stronger.”
I looked at Diablo with uncertain eyes. I mean, what if I go nuts and drink all his blood….I guess Diablo saw the hesitation in my eye because he kissed the top of my head and said: “Just go with the one that will guarantee you more power.”
I bit my lip and looked at my menu one more time. “Then…. Please back up just in case something happens.”
Diablo nodded and stood up and backway a few feet from me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before tapping the Drakani Demigoddess bloodline button. Before I knew it, I passed out.
When I woke up again, I blinked my eyes and only saw the world around me as red. “So hungry….” I looked around and saw Diablo standing there, staring at me with a surprised look on his face. But he soon walked over and crouched down next to me and tilted his neck. “Drink.”
I couldn’t even control my body. I could see the veins pulsating in Diablo’s neck, and before I knew it, I had licked my lips and chomped down on that lovely vein, and began drinking his blood. The taste was sweet and tangy. It filled me with a strange feeling that made me make embarrassing sounds as I drank his blood. I could feel his blood flowing into the two new sharp fangs that appeared in the top row of my teeth, and then it flowed throughout my body, strengthening it.

My mind was filled with repeated messages as I continued to drink Diablo’s blood. Only when Diablo tapped my shoulder did I realize I was drinking too much and quickly released him. His face was pale as he looked at me with a warm smile. I couldn’t keep my tears from flowing, knowing I had hurt him. “I’m sorry!” I cried out as I hugged him tightly.
“It’s fine. You stopped when I needed you to stop. How do you feel now?” Diablo asked weakly. I had a feeling this would happen. And it did. Now I…. I bit my lip and hugged him tighter as I answered. “I am much better, thank you….” It was a lie. I was still hungry, but I was fine for now. I will need to figure out a way to keep my hunger under control without sucking everyone I know dry.
“That’s good. Now use rewind on me and drink some more.” Diablo said, causing me to look up at him. He just smiled back and urged me to do what he asked. I lowered my head and nodded. This continued for almost an hour before I was finally completely full.
