…
Noah watched his stats skyrocket with a smile.
Now that things were done with his evolution, he was greeted by not only Iris but the rest of his main group, who was spending some time by themselves but suddenly began to evolve…
They all seemed rather unchanged, but Noah easily noticed that their souls became stronger and so did their bodies, the elements they possess resonated with new essence and power, as their soul beasts had grown stronger and emerged as semi-transparent phantasmal presences behind them…
Each one was a monster of their own… even the robots, the trio of robot girls had powerful soul presences, although they were not as refined as the other's soul beasts, they seemed to have something close to the others… Although they were still weaker due to lacking a System, thanks to being robots that could self-upgrade and absorb magic materials and more, they could easily rival SSS-Rank Hunters, and if they fused together, they might become as strong as a peak SSS-Rank.
And well, through this whole time William Axis has been upgrading them as well, generating new gadgets, blueprints, and more, so they were packed with several new tools and weapons.
Noah also noticed that similarly to Iris, Timassa and Adamantine's bellies had grown a bit more, although they might take more time than Iris.
Indeed, these two girls had also ended pregnant, as they had been rather active with their romantic partners… Arthur and Jon were about to unexpectedly be fathers as well!
Thankfully, after their previous evolution, they stopped looking too childish and seemed way more mature, like the early twenties, perhaps… but even then, they still had youthful faces.
Noah didn't know how they would handle being parents, but he thought that it might be an enjoyable experience if there were many families like him with newborn vampiric babies to share experiences.
Unexpectedly, the fearful vampires, the strongest beings on this planet, Noah's party, were about to experience the hardships of parenting! At the very least, they were going to do it as a team… Like they always do everything!
The only one missing a belly was Clementina, and the robot girls (for obvious reasons). Clementina seemed to be asexual, as she had no interest in any male… nor female. Or at least not romantically.
In fact the only males she was close with were Noah, Arthur, and Jon, with Noah at the top, which was her figure of greatest devotion and her reason for waking up every morning…
There might be the chance that she might be in love with him but due to Iris's relationship with Noah, she had not said anything. Of course, Noah didn't consider such a thing and didn't force her to be with a man or something.
"So you all evolved as well… I can see that you've grown stronger," said Noah.
"Indeed… And well, the babies also can evolve?! I didn't know that! Timassa's belly just got bigger out of the sudden…" said Arthur.
"Fufu, we might be blessed with a beautiful child soon, Arthur-sama," said Timassa.
"This was quite sudden, but it was also similar to the last time…" said Jon.
"Yeah! My belly got big too! Ah, Mistress's belly is the biggest though!" said Adamantine, as she glanced at Iris.
"Yeah… I have a hard time walking correctly now…" said Iris.
After talking about their new powers, Noah explained that he had reached the rank above SSS-Rank, X-Rank, surprising everyone.
"Amazing… To be expected of my lord," said Noire.
"Indeed! Now that the world is completely ours, nothing can stop us!" said Sakura.
"Well… there are the Watchers and all the Dungeons…" said Sugar.
"Oh…" muttered Sakura.
"The dungeons shouldn't be much of a problem except that one that should also be X-Rank, we'll go to that one after we complete the one in Antarctica and Australia," said Noah.
"Can't wait to go!" said Timassa.
"Timassa, you're not going…" sighed Arthur.
"Eh? Oh right…" said Timassa, looking at her belly again.
"I can go, right? I am still strong!" said Adamantine.
"No, you are not going," said Jon, petting Adamantine's head.
"But I wanna go!" cried Adamantine.
"You're pregnant with our child… You have to be considerate with the pup," said Jon.
"Hmm… Okaaay…" sighed Adamantine.
It seemed that Jon had somehow tamed Adamantine! This was rather shocking, no one had expected him to convince the wild girl so fast…
"I guess I am not going either… Heh…" sighed Iris, she was itching for some slaughter, but she had to contain herself and stay inside the castle relaxing.
"The rest of us shall get going tomorrow morning, so for now, all of you are dismissed, go rest and prepare for tomorrow," said Noah, as everyone nodded.
He also went back to his room with Iris and the two enjoyed a nap together, as they felt tired after evolving.
Meanwhile, within the artic areas of the south pole of Earth, an enormous tremor was occurring.
Gigantic beasts over 100 meters tall were fighting, roaring, and tearing each other apart.
BOOM!
Suddenly, one of them fell over the ice, it was dead.
It resembled a gigantic snake-like dragon, coated in metallic azure scales…
Suddenly, an even bigger claw surged from the water, big enough to take this one-hundred-meter dragon and drag it into the depths of the water…
Splash!
Noah's clones watched this from afar.
"So the SSS-Rank Boss escaped ahead of time…"
"It had escaped already for some time, it has simply stayed in the water."
"Well, the main body is coming here soon, a day inside the divine realm are a few minutes outside…"
"Let's await him…"
