153 Special Species [Day 141] Even though I expected Gaby and Adelle to evolve last night, I was still surprised nonetheless. When they woke up, substantial changes happened in their bodies as the two evolved into the next level of existence. First of all, Gaby gained the [Blessing of the Merfolk God of Pirates; Thornton], a strange God that I didn't expect her to get a blessing from. I was actually expecting something like the Demi-God of Aquatic Beast or Poseidon… But this God… First of all, how is there a God of Pirates? Who is praying to him? Perhaps the seas are filled with Pirates… Well, she gained tons of stats and new Classes thanks to his blessing. Gaby already had the blessing of the Demi-Goddess of Storm Waves, and after receiving another one, she gained a new evolution path. Her new evolution had a long name, it was Savage Redhead Pirate Mershark of the Bloody Seas, and was also cataloged as a "Special Species". Her power tripled and her new appearance was slimmer than before. Although she regained some of her muscle mass from her biceps and arms, she had become quite thin and more refined. Her Shark tail remained its blue colors and was now covered on an even stronger and sturdier scale. Her red hair grew very long, so she had to tie it up into a beautiful ponytail. Her eyes turned blue instead of her previous scarlet red and her skin became pale white. Her face became that of tremendous beauty, with a small and pointed nose, charming red lips, and a thin face, resembling a human more than ever. Although she remained her pointy shark fangs. Gaby obtained a new [Organic Armor] in the form of a sexy pirate attire, however, she still preferred to wear dresses combined with chest plates and shoulder pads. On her right hand, there was a small red and blue gemstone named [Pirate Shark of the Bloody Seas Orb], when activated, it would enhance her body, giving her more power, speed, and durability. [NAME: Gaby Adamantine [CLASS: Renowned Pirate of Bloody Seas [RACE: Savage Redhead Pirate Mershark of the Bloody Seas (Special Species) [LEVEL: 1/250?EXP: 0000000/6000000 [STATUS: Excellent. [ITEM BOX: 149/300 [HP: 663/663?MP: 357/357 [STAMINA: 270/270 [STRENGTH: 617 [DEFENCE: 382 [MAGIC: 440 [RESISTANCE: 402 [SPEED: 591 [CHARISMA: 200 [LUCK: 10 [New Skills] [Blessing of the Demigoddess of Storm Waves: Cymopoleia] [Blessing of the Merfolk God of Pirates; Thornton] [Aquamarine Muscles of the Pirate Mershark] [Sea Domain] [Enhancement of The Pirate Empress] [Pirate Empress Impressive Water Maneuver] [Ancient Pirate of the Seas Magic; Ghostly Boat] [Ancient Pirate Eyes of Recognition] [Blade Energy Master Technique: Twelve Divine Sharks] [Tyrannical Pirate Captain Berserk Mode] [Sea Creatures Enhanced Taming Proficiency] [Greater Enhanced Water Regeneration] [Ancient Pirate Merfolk Summoning Magic; Pirate Lackey, Pirate Warrior, and Pirate Captain] Her stats were now all-rounder instead of being a slow type of berserk, which is good. Her only downside would be her defenses, which can be easily patched with a good set of Armor. She gained an impressive amount of speed and a decent Magic stat, most probably due to her new Class. It seems that pirates are a speedy type of warrior with little defenses but strong offense. She gained some very interesting skills that I am looking forward to her to use. Some of her original skills evolved, like the [Blade Energy Master Technique: Twelve Divine Sharks]. She obtained what is called "Ancient Pirate Magic", and can summon a giant floating ghostly boat, which was incredibly amazing. It was able to hold up to one hundred people with ease and could even fly through the skies endlessly. Inside of this boat, Gaby's stats are doubled and she becomes extremely strong. She can command the boat to open cannons to attack from a distance or even throw a massive anchor at her enemies. Lastly, she can now summon what is called "Merfolk Pirate", they are very similar to Skeletons in intelligence and have some basic individuality. They come in all shapes and forms of merfolk, there can be Mermaids, Krakens, Scylla, etc. The weakest ones are the Lackeys, that comes with some basic equipment and swords, the middle ones are Warriors that come with light armor and heavy weapons and then the Captains, that are the strongest and usually hold giant scimitars accompanied with magic guns. This summoning power was strangely even more convenient than Gaby thought, as Captains can come with Magic Guns, it means that we can mass-produce them with ease now, without even needing materials. Furthermore, we could even use these Magic Guns of low quality to easily craft even stronger ones. The Pirate Merfolk looked quite tasty, so I told Gaby to summon fifty of each for lunch. On the other side, Adelle gained the [Blessing of the Goddess of Governance Alphine], another "strange" God that I didn't expect for my wife. I would have thought that could be something related to Light or Holy, I even thought about Apolo giving her a blessing, but it seems that this Goddess selected her instead. Adelle already had the [Blessing of the Demi-Goddess of Sacred Spirits Quemella], so both blessings complemented each other and formed a new evolution path for Adelle. Just like Gaby, Adelle's new species had a long name, being Sacred Spiritual Koi Mermaid Governing Queen, being cataloged as a "Special Species", although I still don't even know what this means… Her body had completely maturated into an adult stage, even to the point of gaining a decent pair of breasts, that went well with her increased hips and overall graceful and slim figure. Although she remained some of the cuteness of her previous stages on her face, she resembled a graceful and majestic queen of the seas. Her blonde hair remained on a dazzling blonde color, which was separated on two big pigtails. Her eyes became pink and blue, resembling a nebula. She gained a small tattoo on the back of her neck that resembled a crown. Her Koi fishtail turned completely white with small golden dots here and there. [NAME: Adelle [CLASS: Divine Queen of the Blinding Lights [RACE: Sacred Spiritual Governor Queen Koi Mermaid (Special Species) [LEVEL: 1/250?EXP: 0000000/8000000 [STATUS: Excellent. [ITEM BOX: 291/350 [HP: 465/465?MP: 421/421 [STAMINA: 200/200 [STRENGTH: 683 [DEFENCE: 360 [MAGIC: 504 [RESISTANCE: 508 [SPEED: 659 [CHARISMA: 350 [LUCK: 25 [New Skills] [Blessing of the Demi-Goddess of Sacred Spirits Quemella] [Blessing of the Goddess of Governance Alphine] [Pure White Scales of Holy] [Body and Mind of the Sacred Governor] [Holy Koi Governor Lineage] [Graceful and Everlasting Governing Presence] [Sacred Governor Arts; Command of Order] [Obey the Sacred Queen] [Sacred Governor Arts; Soul Subjugation] [Sacred Governor Arts; Increase Tax] [Charming Dignity of the Sacred Queen] [Governing Shield of Everlasting Presence] [Slaying Blade of the Governor's Judgement] [Ancient Governor Summoning Magic: Holy Paladins] Adelle's stats were already amazing after evolving, most likely this being because of her bloodline has royalty awakening on her, giving her a quicker and stronger growth than most other people. After evolving once again, her stats skyrocketed. She seems to have become a very fast mixed attacker. Her Charisma also increased alongside her Luck. Which became a whopping 25! That was really surprising… I suppose that is because she became a [Governor] Class being, or so she says. She is now able to attack at immense speed as if she were a ray of light. Alongside this, she can summon a magic shield and a blade to aid her in battle. These weapons are amazing as they can level up on their own. Alongside this, she has Governing related skills, that helps her manipulate others into subjugation. Lastly, just like Gaby, Adelle can summon Merfolk, however, hers are quite interesting. They are qualified as "Holy Paladins" and are mostly burly Mermen wearing super heavy armor and weapons. They lack intelligence and barely have any independency, so they're nothing much other than food, maybe if we could impregnate the female ones… Anyways, I asked Adelle to summon one hundred of these Paladins for lunch too, to see if I can get anything from them. After having breakfast with my family, I received a new message from Alice, it seems that things became progressively worse in the Kindom, as the two sides have heated up after knowing that one was already recruiting Adventurers as soldiers, making everyone rush for the war as fast as possible. The King was completely ignored and so did the Princess and the Royal Family. The Champion of Psychic Eyes cannot do much outside of supporting her side while using the Champions and Elemental Knights to manipulate the opposite side. The Hero of Wind also showed up and is currently working for the side that supports War Power over Riches. In normal circumstances his presence and power would easily intimidate his opposing side, however, because 70% of them are brainwashed, they are not backing down. All of this event is for my own benefice and that of my people, it will be the perfect place to get rid of all those who would oppose us in the future, while leaving Athetosea helpless for me to take over. I still have not grasped enough information about the Hero of Raging Winds, its as if the Champion of Psychic Eyes quickly hid all his information, knowing that I was constantly absorbing their knowledge in some way. That woman is incredibly sharp. She has also executed every brainwashed soldier I sent there. Thankfully, the remaining Dhampir Spies have become stronger and are hiding just fine, sending any small info they find, they have recently begun to hunt Adventurers due to my orders. The fewer adventurers on the war, the easiest it will be. Knights are too hard to kill, as they are all in their heavily guarded camps. Because my Dhampirs were very little, today I decided to convert some humans into them. Most of them were from the Tribes, I selected the ones with the highest Speed stat and that also had Thief, Bandit, and Spy related classes. As eighty qualified humans showed up, I quickly bite their necks one by one, which ended up taking a lot of time, but it was the only way. Extracting blood from afar doesn't seem to work, it needs direct contact from my fangs and saliva, while actively drinking their blood until a certain point, then let them "die" and "resurrect" as Dhampirs. The humans were surprised as it wasn't as painful as they thought, they also remained their memories and became fascinated with me… Oh, Yisu was also qualified, so she became a Dhampir, and ended up becoming even more fascinated with me. She has recently created a religion based on me… I would like these Dhampirs to train and possibly evolve before sending them off to other countries or Kingdoms to spy for me. After this, I decided to create two more Summoning Clones to help with the construction of the Living Slime Golem Wall. This time I molded one to resemble Nereid, she had long blue hair and crystalline eyes, I named her Maji. The second one was molded to resemble Kjata, having red skin, scarlet hair and eyes, I named her Flamme. Almost reaching ten Summoning Clones, the production of what we call now "Summoning Materials" is steadily increasing without any cost outside from their MP and the occasional need to refill them with Soul Cores to keep on working, similar to batteries. Having that done, I spent the rest of the day with my family, while also training them alongside the hundreds of new troops. Due to the Yuki-onna's giving birth and gaining intelligence and consciousness, the influx of new soldiers has skyrocketed. Thankfully, with my Summoning Clones, I don't have to worry about summoning Skeletons myself to train them, as waves of thousands of them are being produced every day. Due to these efficient methods that I have designed, the influx of EXP is increasing a lot, more than one hundred soldiers have already evolved once again. It seems that Snow Girls can evolve into Snow Woman, afterward, it will begin to branch to other different species, including Yuki-onna. Although there are around thirty Snow Woman, none of them have evolved yet. I also ate a lot of Merfolk Pirates and Holy Paladins for lunch and dinner, so I gained some Skills due to their quantity. [You learned the following Skills] [Pirate Arts: Fire Cannons] [Pirate Arts: Group Pillage] [Holy Guard of the Governor Unmovable Fortress] [Holy Guard Arts: Tornado of Holy Slashes] . . .
