three horned bear's end and evolution choices
I forgot about it and activated one of my new skills [illision art]; once I activated it a thick purple mist started to surround me and bear, the bear started walking around and turning around as if he was looking for something, I figured out that it probably couldn't see me, without wasting this opportunity I went in for the attack
I activated the [holy beam] and aimed for the bear's neck and shot a column of golden light at it, as I did I heard a ding sound
[system notification]
[holy beam <2>]
[system notification]
[host has earned 300exp]
[system notification]
[evolution path open]
[system notification]
[the system is changing quest reward; 3000exp, ]
I was distracted by the system notification and I didn't notice the head of the black bear flying off, after that, I heard another ding sound
[system notification]
[hp/mp/sp is critically low <10/500>]
when I saw this my heart dropped. My eyes turned a crimson color and my body started to shrivel up a bit, I looked at the bear's headless remains and jumped towards it I landed on it and sank my teeth into its flesh, the black bear's meat tasted sweet like honey and I munched on the sweetmeat and even crunched the bears' bones in my mouth, I licked my lips and stood up, I stretched a bit and noticed I had a few system messages
[system notification]
[you have acquired the following skills]
[shadow jump]
[animal instinct]
'wait the massive bear had a skill called shadow jump" I imagined what would have happened if that bear had used that skill I'll probably be dead by now, I walked back to the bodies and continued my search
"At last" I found a small black ring on the witch's finger, it was covered in a lot of blood and mud from me eating her and the fight I had with the black bear
I got up and looked around if there was a stream nearby that I could use to wash the ring. I then noticed that I haven't moved from this particular area at all
"well it seems like I need to go explore"
" by the way, system do you know the name of this world I'm in"
[system notification]
[host is currently in the world called Arlomia]
"hmmm Arlomia huh, sounds like a dumb name"
"system any other information about Arlomia"
[system notification]
[data on Arlomia seems to be outdated ]
"OUTDATED!!!, what do you mean by outdated"
[to acquire the latest information host is required to evovle]
"wait evolve, what does that mean"
[evolution choices opened]
[undead origin]
[lower ghoul]
[lower vampire]
[lower lich]
[lower wendigo]
"hmmm I see, so I can become one of these things"
"before I choose anything is there any information about"
[undead origin; an origin is usually formed during the fetus stage of any race because the host was from a world without an origin; host's origin is too weak to be used for anything if host desires to cast high spells host is required to evolve origin into a stronger form]
[note: this can only be done through the system by sharing its origin fragments with the host when evovling]
[+30 to mind stats]
[+40 to agility stats]
[+50 to strength stats]
[+100 to hp/sp/mp stats
[evolution chance; 99.9%]
"wait for an origin, so is that why I'm so weak, and that soul stat evolution sounds nice"
"All alright next"
[lower ghoul; this is a weaker variant of a ghoul, it can be easily killed
[-10 to all stats]
[skills; unlimited stamina, mid shadow affinity]
[weaknesses; can be easily killed by all magical attacks]
[ evolution chance; none]
"whoa that's a horrible evolution choice, wait it can't even be called an evolution it's more like de-evolution if that's a thing"
" alright next"
[lower vampire; this is a weaker variant of a vampire, it focuses on strength and regeneration]
[skills; unlimited stamina, high shadow buff, minor regenration]
[weaknesses; can be killed with direct sunlight, holy or light magic, weak to elemental attacks]
[evolution chance; 30%
"hhhhmmm interesting this one focuses on regeneration and buffs but its evolution chances are low"
[lower lich; these are weaker variants of a lich, it has a medium magic affinity and focuses on speed and agility]
[-10 to strength stats]
[+40 to mind stats]
[+30 to agility stats ]
[+200 to hp/sp/mp
[skills; basic paragon skill]
[waekness; holy magic]
[evolution chance; 60%]
[note; the host cannot evolve into this because of weak origin ]
"WHAT!!!!, weak origin my a*s this is one of the best evolution choices I have and you're telling me I can't have it" I sat down for a bit pondering about what the system told me and just accepted it "next time I'll pick the lich, I really want that paragon skill it sounds really powerful maybe it's a master of all elements or chaos storm creator, well whatever skill it was it sounded powerful"
"alright next evolution choice"
[lower wendigo; you will become a weaker wendigo, having an ethereal form]
[-20 to strength stats]
[-10 to mind ]
[+50 to agility]
[+100 to hp/mp/sp]
[skills; possession, gluttony]
[weaknesses; weak to all elemental attacks]
[evolution chance 40%]
[note; the host cannot evolve because of weak origin]
"hmm it seems that this weak origin stuff affects my evolution choices, I guess the best option is to go with the undead origin" I got up and decided to find a safe place to evolve
