Void Evolution System

“Waaaaaaah!”

“Let’s gooooooo!”

When Damien and Ruyue reappeared, they were met with the excited screams of two children.

‘What is…?’

And immediately after that, the reason for those screams entered their eyes. Damien could hardly believe what he was seeing.

In the portion of the Sanctuary that was sectioned off for little Xue to use, the amount of free space remaining had been reduced to nothing.

That entire space was now filled with what could only be called the greatest slide a child could ever imagine.

It was made of ice so crystalline that it looked like it would shatter with a single touch, winding in loops and other patterns that would normally spell out instant death for anyone who rid the slide.

But such a situation didn’t occur at all.

“Waaaaaaaaaah!”

Another scream rang out. When Damien looked over, he saw Xue’er upside down, halfway through a loop in the slide. Around her, an assortment of giggling spirits were manipulating the wind so that she wouldn’t fall off the slide.

Not far from her, the same situation was taking place for Lily and Mei, who had split their body and were manifested together at the same time.

“What kind of madman put the idea for this thing inside those kids’ heads?” Damien wondered out loud.

He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The scene of these girls arguing and fighting didn’t appear in front of his eyes as he expected it to, which was a good thing. But at the same time, what they were doing was way too dangerous for him to condone.

But when he moved to bring them down and give them a good scolding, Ruyue held his arm and stopped them.

“Idiot, can’t you see how much fun they’re having? Let them be.”

“Eh? Even if they’re having fun, I can’t allow them to think that being this reckless is something good.”

“Of course you should teach them that, but isn’t it fine? From what I can see, their safety is guaranteed.” Ruyue pointed towards a separate direction, where two people were watching the girls play.

It was Elitra and the maid that usually stayed by the Demon King Lucius’ side.

Damien sighed. ‘Well, if they have a 4th class watching over them, I guess I can’t complain much. Still, though. This kind of thing…’

It was unbelievable. Putting aside his concern for their safety, just the fact that the three girls had made something like this was insane.

The structure of the slide was so intricately made that it didn’t seem like the work of a 10-year-old. But considering that Lily and Mei were Ice Spirits, and that their true age was far greater than just a mere ten years old, he could somewhat accept their masterful usage of their abilities.

But Xue’er was another matter altogether. That girl had no training to speak of, only the wild imagination of a child. Yet, the little spirits around her were listening to her like docile puppies and executing whatever her imagination could think of.

‘Did I…accidentally pick up a gem?’

He should have realized it when she was using elemental spirits to boost her speed to jump at him months ago. Even that much was insane considering her circumstances. But such a grand showing really cemented the idea in his mind.

Damien opened his eyes wide.

[All-Seeing Eyes have been activated.]

An unexpected system message appeared. And along with it…

His eyes widened in shock. Although he had somewhat glimpsed this ability before he entered the secret realm, he never thought he’d unlock it so fast.

‘Her experience value is missing, and I can’t see her stats, skills, or traits, but considering that most people can’t see anything at all, this is insane.’

But ignoring that, the fact that Xue’er had a unique affinity and had also gained a title at such a young age was just as insane.

‘Damn, seeing this makes me want to train her. She would be an unprecedented genius if I did…but, that can wait. There’s no need to thrust a 7-year-old child into a world of blood.’

Damien shook his head. Seeing the improvement in his All-Seeing Eyes had made him curious about his own status as well. And he just so happened to have some time while he waited for the girls to finish playing.

‘It’s been so long since I’ve seen it, I can’t help but get excited.’

‘Status.’

‘…Wow.’

His stats had increased by more than 1000 points since the last time he had seen them. His mana capacity was even more blown out of proportion. They were numbers that he could hardly believe.

‘It must be the boost from the Primordial Undying Fruit. There’s no way that such an increase is natural, though a portion of it definitely is. Come to think of it, without this much mana it would have been impossible for me to transport everyone into the Sanctuary even if I sacrificed my blood vitality to do so, so I guess it makes sense.’

Other than his stats, his skills had also changed a great deal. All his existing skills had leveled up, and there were a few new ones as well. Not to mention, some of his old skills were missing.

‘Or rather, they’ve been absorbed into my existing skills. It’s like my skill list has been cleaned up.’

Warp getting absorbed into Dimensional Magic seemed natural, since the nature of Dimensional Magic also encompassed something like warp. Since he could still use that skill, he knew that it hadn’t disappeared. The rest must’ve been the same.

‘The trait from the Goblin King is also missing. That one…I don’t think it’s the same situation as my skills.’

The Goblin King’s absorption and reflection trait. Although it was useful, that was only if he was fighting enemies weaker than himself. In his hands, it had never gotten a chance to shine.

How it disappeared wasn’t something he understood, but if he had to guess, then it must’ve had something to do with his Void Essence and Alaric’s Divine Power restructuring his body.

The main function of the Primordial Undying Fruit that he had been looking forward to was purification. His body had been purified of any unnecessary or wasteful parts, and that trait was most likely a part of it.

‘My bloodlines have also been completely purified. The Demon Bloodline is also shown on my status, albeit as question marks. Which means that it definitely isn’t a bloodline from the Nox.’

Damien sighed. The purification of his bloodlines was obviously something that benefited him immensely. It was just…

‘I’ll miss my wolf bloodline.’

It was his roots. The very first mutation he had undergone was by a wolf, and it was his wolf bloodline that allowed him and Zara to get along so easily when they first met. Feeling, or rather, not feeling its presence in his body made him feel somewhat empty.

But change was a good thing, and it wasn’t something he’d find fault in. It was just him getting sentimental for no reason.

Other than what he had already gone over, there were two more new things in his status that interested him, and they both seemed to have the same origin.

Transcendent Regeneration and Heal.
