Chapter 464: An Evolution Predicament

Ascalor finally awakened from his sleep and his body recovered to its peak condition. Adrian and Elder Danaya is ecstatic as the Daemos elder has finally recovered. Elder Danaya suddenly pushed herself to immediately hug Ascalor and share a steamy kiss with him.

"Well, let me just excuse my self for a few seconds. I have system logs that needs to be attended." Adrian told himself as he went out of the room. He did not like the exhibition he is seeing especially from two grown men. He feels like he is seeing his parent show public affection. It is heartwarming but cringy at the same time.

[You have successfully cleared the quest 'Find the Sands of Time Relic'.]

[Claim your reward from the quest giver, Koronn.]

"Now all I need to do is find where the other old man is currently located." Adrian thought but he suddenly saw Koronn appear in front of him. He even got shocked and almost fell down as Koronn appeared before him in an instant.

"Who are you calling old man? I am still in my early thousands. I am much younger than the old man that fell sick in that room there." Koronn stated as he viewed himself being a young hunk.

"Ascalor told me that you are just one year apart though. Also, I have been meaning to askwhy choose the appearances of old men? Also, hand me my reward. I had to kill a being that was possessed by a remnant will of a dark god to save him." Adrian stated as he is curious about the whole old man appearance.

"Hoh! If that is your question, then it takes me back to the time the first council of elders was established." Koronn stated but Adrian suddenly intervened.

"You just do it to appear more respectable, don't you? I mean us, Daemos, do not grow old past a certain age after all. Sometimes being old can easily garner more respect because it has been taught n society that those older have more experiences in life." Adrian stated which greatly amazed Koronn but also made him blush.

"You are correct but that is not the only reason. You do know that our real forms are very bothersome to unleash and walk with. I have giant clocks swirling behind me. Have you seen Ascalor's true form? How could he enter his home with those wings of his? Anyways, here is the promised spell book. Learn it well." Koronn answered and humored Adrian.

[You have obtained the spell book Time Stop.]

Skill: Time Stop

Tier: Mythical

Type: Crowd Control

Effect: Freeze time for the expected duration. Only the user of the skill can move in this world where time is frozen (Some unique individuals can also move depending on the strength of the caster).

Duration: Dependent on the mana consumed

Cooldown: 1 hour

Cast Time: Instant

Mana Cost: 10,000 Mana Points per second

Adrian could not believe that he managed to learn a mythical tier skill. The only problem he has now is the enormous mana cost. With his current mana pool, he can only freeze time for two seconds and that is if he has full mana.

He knew that getting a powerful skill will have severe limitations. He is still very grateful as the cooldown is only one hour. With Adrian's current cooldowns, he can cast the skill within 30 minutes. He now has a new goal and that is to find items that can decrease the mana cost for skills.

"By the way, how is Ascalor? I should go check so I can push all the responsibilities back to him." Koronn stated as he started to walk inside the room.

"I would not go there if I were you. They are eating each other's faces right now which is why I excused myself. Feel free to watch if you are into that kind of stuff." Adrian stated with a small chuckle. Koronn immediately stopped walking and made a 180 degree turn as he did not want to see what is happening in that room.

"Ehemseriously. They are all adults and to act like that in front of a child is indecent." Koronn stated.

"You are just jelly because you are a bachelor, old man." Adrian stated with a serious face but Koronn just smiled.

Adrian saw that smile and instantly had shivers. He wanted to run away or teleport away, but a black hole suddenly appeared below him. He immediately used Time Stop to stop himself from falling in the hole. The world froze but Adrian forgot that Koronn specialized in temporal magic.

"Hoho! You managed to perfectly use the spell without even practicing. I guess desperation does bring out the best out of everyone." Koronn stated but that sentence only made Adrian feel bitter as the black hole suddenly sucked him in despite resisting.

"Curse you, old man! This is why you are still a bach" Adrian shouted but he is already in a perpetual torture of continuously falling.

"What was that? I could not hear you?" Koronn stated as he even put his hand near his ear in front of the black hole.

"Do not bully the kid. He probably is just venting out stress from the difficult task that you sent him in." Ascalor stated as exited his room.

"Do not worry about him. A minute would teach that brat a lesson. We have bigger problems that we must face." Koronn stated as his tone became serious.

"It seems that you have been busy during my absence. Danaya managed to fill me about the general details but I assume that you need to report some things that the others have yet to know." Ascalor stated as he and Koronn vanished from the room.

They went to the council as Koronn suddenly left without much explanation so they must be distraught by now. Danaya is currently resting in Ascalor' room as she pushed herself too far. She even used her own life force to stop the spread of poison in Ascalor's body.

A few minutes later, a black hole appeared in the vast plains of the Paradox Planes. Adrian then fell out that black hole with an irritated look. He vowed to take revenge against Koronn once he becomes more powerful than the elder.

Adrian logged back in the game the following day. Messages that his friends have told him are not optimistic. It seems that the dark god is proving to be much more difficult than it ought to be. The guilds also started to race on finding this God Slaying Weapons that he is hearing much about.

The fierce competition even led to guilds brawling it out just for a sliver of information. The non-aggression agreements between guilds have become mute. This only led to more headaches as they are fighting over something when they should help each other find it for better chances.

"Seriously, the threat of the dark god is real. They should help each other and not start guild wars over some information that could not even be proven true. NPCs can lie in this game after all. I have much more important things to be concerned of." Adrian stated as he cannot decide what evolution path should Dodu take.

After the fight with the Asmodian Abomination, Dodu finally broke through level 100 and that promted his evolution list to have substance. The previous empty list is now filled with eight different slime species. He did not know what to pick because just basing of descriptions is vague.

Baby Slime Potential Evolutions:

1. Sticky Slime

2. Red Slime

3. Blue Slime

4. Acid Slime

5. Giant Slime

6. Demon Slime

7. Predatory Slime

8. Black Ooze Slime

"Something scary is on that list but I want to pick it. It makes me very curious on what it could possibly do." Adrian stated as he pondered on what Dodu should evolve into.

He did not want to pick the Sticky Slime because all it could do is create a sticky substance using its body, but it does make the slime more flexible. The red slime and blue slime are elemental slimes that could use magic. The red slime can use fire attribute magic while the blue slime can use water attribute magic.

The Acid Slime is basically a slime that can digest anything with its body that can easily melt metal. The Giant Slime is basically a giant version of Dodu that reaches up to five meters. It might be great for tanking, but it would limit Dodu's mobility. It would make the cute Dodu into a giant cute Dodu though.

Demons Slime must have been influenced by the blood that Dodu got from Adrian. It is basically just an enhanced version of a regular slime with unknown abilities. The Predatory Slime is basically a huge glutton slime that can eat anything but that remains to be seen. Last but not least is the Black Ooze Slime that sounds ominous but cool.

"I can already evolve Dodu. I just need to pick what type of evolution." Adrian pondered as he checked each of the benefits for the volution once more.
