Novel Full 570 Evolving Ruby
—–
Evolution, something that monsters, demons, spirits, and even humanoids are capable of undergoing. Usually, it is by reaching a certain point in their power in which their bodies are no longer capable of adapting to it. Therefore, the accumulated power erupts and mutates the body, adapting it to this amount of energy, and at the same time, transforming it so it can harbor even more power. This is the most basic concept of Evolution… or well, the evolution I am trying to refer to.
There’s also the Evolution related to adaptability, living beings change and evolve to adapt to their environment and their circumstances, selective breeding can also cause specimens to “evolve” into something preferred by the one handling them. It could be said both concepts belong to the same word, Evolution.
And that’s something I and many of my allies had gone through- or well, that Asmodeus has gone through. He used to have many monsters he had tamed, helping them evolve into stronger monsters was one of the things he enjoyed doing. Now that I have all his memories and wisdom, I will use them to evolve little Ruby into something stronger and better.
The very last item I needed is finally within my possession. I needed any material from a pure Dragon-type monster. More Wyvern Materials wouldn’t do, I needed something coming straight out of an actual dragon.
Even if it’s just this large scale, it is more than enough. I can use more Wyvern Materials as surplus, after all, I’ve hunted a few dozen Wyverns when I was back in my village through the years. They were very rare, but sometimes they would show up, annoyed by the spiritual essence of the spirit trees, and sometimes going as far as trying to burn these trees.
We hunted them down one by one, and with some Ice Magic and Time Magic of low tier, I was able to preserve the materials in a very good state until I finally acquired the Inventory function…
“Roar!”
Ruby was waving his tail playfully as he looked at me with his big red eyes, very expectant of what I would do right now. Naturally, Eleanora, Hendrick, and Saphira were also present here.
“He seems very excited about his next evolution.” Giggled Eleanora.
“It seem you’re finally becoming bigger… Ah, well, I’ve only known you like this for a little more than a week, hahaha!” Laughed Hendrick.
“Can’t he stay tiny a bit longer?” Saphira sighed, she liked him small.

I made a magic circle in the floor and then added all the materials necessary in each node I had created. The arranged runes were written using wyvern blood and my own blood, to add both dragon and vampire element to the entire formation.
I put on Crystalized Vampire Blood, made with my own blood, Vampire Fangs, which were my own fangs that I can now easily regrow, Vampire Claws, Wyvern Claws, Wyvern Eyes, Wyvern Scales, Crystalized Wyvern Blood, and then a few other materials I bought from the market, such as Blazing Salamander scales, Fiery Boar Tusks, and other things.
“Roar?” Roar!”
Ruby seemed confused about what he should do, but he quickly walked into the middle of the circle as I gave him a mental command. He was quite obedient. He sat there, slightly confused about what was going on.
Evolution could be influenced in such ways, by creating special magic circles containing materials, whenever a monster underwent evolution, these circles would be activated by the conjurer, which then would meld the materials into the still-evolving body of the monster, provoking a mutation.
“And the last material, the Red Dragon’s Scale.”
I placed the scale over the floor, in the last node.
“All arranged…”
Preparing myself to start Ruby’s evolution, I checked on his stats.

His stats increased by around 10 points with each level, to all. It was a very pitiful growth speed, but that’s because he was still a 1 star. Once he evolves, I hope he can get a better growth rate per level…
“Now, let’s begin.”
I quickly gave a mental order to Ruby, just as the Grimoire had explained, I simply thought about giving him the permission to evolve, and without even a second of delay, Ruby started to glow bright white.
At the same time, I activated the Magic Circle by infusing Mana into it. The Runes suddenly began moving around, as if they had been completely awakened.
The materials slowly moved towards his body, melding within him, as his body slowly started growing larger and larger. His legs became bigger, and his wings wider.
At the same time, he gained a new pair of limbs, while his former front limbs, which were his wings, moved towards his shoulders.
Unlike wyverns who have wings in their front limbs, dragons have a second pair of limbs on top of their shoulders which is their wings. This is one of the reasons why dragons are considered superior as well, as they can fly and also slash at their foe with all four limbs.
FLAAASH!
The light quickly dissipated, as from within, there was a small dragon now, not a wyvern anymore. I had done something that would be considered completely impossible in this world, all thanks to the magic circles and knowledge I had from my previous life…
Ding!
[The Tamed Monster [Ruby] has evolved into a [Young Blood Dragon: ★★]!]
