Chapter 14: Awakening the ancient memories
"Hey Leo" Rose said
"What?" Leo asked with a Confused expression
"Are you sure you can eat this much?" Rose said while looking at the corpse that was almost twice her size and the various big spider corpses more than half of her size
"Yeah sure i like to eat the most" Leo said and laughed
Rose was surprised but she kept walking
After 30mins,
The group reached the palace
"What do we do it's not like we can keep them with us?" Ember asked with a concerned face
"What do you mean?" Rose asked with a Confused expression
"If it's about the algae then the best way is to put them inside a isolated stone house with the inside having no moisture and ice so that any algae or bacteria won't be able to grow on the food and they can be preserved for a few months" Leo said and took his portion into his room
Everyone was stunned but they regained themselves
"Alright then me, Ember and Saphy will do the building and you guys help shift them" Rose ordered
Everyone nodded
Leo looked at Rose who was getting better than making decisions and the hardworking group with a smile and left
In a huge metal room with molten rocks everywhere,
Leo brought the corpses and dipped them into the metal basin surrounded by molten lava
The lava began to boil and cook the meat inside causing an aroma to escape
"Leo what are you making?" Rose said while peeking from the door with saliva dripping from her mouth
"Nothing at all I just threw these meat inside my pot to cook them so that I can atleast taste something bcs raw meat is really bad in taste" Leo said and broke a leg from the big spiders and threw it at Rose
"Eat it if you want" Leo said and began to move the meat with his blade like legs
Rose but the leg and her eyes widened
"This is a yummy!" Rose was stunned
"When I am not here you can use this pot of mine to cook but make sure to send either Ember or Saphy because you will ruin it with the icy breadth while the others might get severe burns" Leo said and began to eat the meat
"Ok!" Rose said and quickly left

Leo began to eat the big black spiders and finished them soon
Now time for the big meal

Three hours later,
"Phew finally done"Leo took a breadth
"UI" Leo said in his consciousness
[Beast: Poison Flame Spider
Experience: 300,000/50,000
Skills:...
E.P: 60,000
G.P: 1,000]
"Huh?" Leo was stunned
Leo was stunned by the change in the system
[Author Note: (...) is written because there are way too many skills like 20 of them so it will be easier for me to write them later and for my viewers to read the novel without the skills taking like 100words themselves]
"Wait... Why is G.P?!" Leo was stunned again because it was a new unit that he had never seen before
[Host G.P is like token you can use in the shop to buy upgrades and you can get them by eating beings with a royal bloodline]
"I see..." Leo nodded
"Genetic Shop?" Leo said with a doubtful expression because he just guessed this term
[Welcome to genetics shops pls enter the amount of G.P you currently have]
"Damn so advanced?!" Leo was speechless but he regained his composure
"1,000" Leo said while staring at the screen
[Please wait... Searching for Available Products... Searching for safe products for the current level]
[Genetics Shop
Poison Cannon(Skill): 1,000
Evolution Template: 1,000
Custom Skill Card: 1,000
Skill Upgrade Token: 1,000]
Leo looked at the 4 available options and his eyes widened
"So many good items..." Leo said and looked at the descriptions
"Well these are really rare so I don't wanna waste them on skills" Leo frowned and looked at the only remaining option
"Evolution Template!" Leo said
[Host do you wish to consume all your E.P and experience to activate the Template?]
Leo was stunned
"That's a high price to activate this thing..." Leo thought for a moment
"Yes!" Leo said in his consciousness
[Template: Awakened
Evolution Options:-
Bloody Spider King
Scarlet Spider King
Chaos Spider King
Dragon Spider Emperor
Mystic Phantom Spider]
"So many options!" Leo was speechless
There were 5 evolution options and each was strong
"Hmm let's see... I am not a blood Thirsty killer and I don't want to kill to get stronger not do i want to become strong instantly" Leo Thought
Becoming a violet Beast will make him a enemy for humans while becoming a powerful beast will alert the enemies
"I choose Mystical Phantom Spider!" Leo said in his mind
[Host, a new spider template is resonating with your Attributes do you wish to proceed and evolve into the Mystical Phantom Tyrant Spider?]
Leo looked at the screen and was filled with joy because it was a perfect match for him!
"Yes!" Leo said in his consciousness
Boom!
A heavy aura began to spread from his body causing all the nearby spiders to get alerted including the Scarlet Spider Mother
"What a terrifying pressure..." The Scarlet Spider Mother said while using her full power to suppress the incoming pressure
"Roar!!!" A Heavy roar came out of the palace causing a earthquake to occur and trees to shatter
The group of spiders were directly flung to the nearby forest and the Scarlet Spider Mother was also pushed back due to the powerful Force
Boom! Boom!
Cracks kept appearing on the barren ground and lava flowed out of them
The entire palace along with the heaven and earth shook under the terrifying force
The fangs began to transform and disappeared and was now replaced by a terrifying looking Mouth full of Deadly fangs
The Eyes became bigger and hollowed out from the inside and the eyeball was now replaced by a crimson red flame burning inside emitting a Terrifying aura of death
The legs became even longer and the blades Began to transform to become covered with black Armour made from stone and black rocks each spewing hot magma from them while the top became a drill like shape
The body grew to 500m in height while the scales were replaced by volcanoes with powerful earth armour and golden lava spewing from their nozzles
The web part began to close down and a huge hole was formed between it which began to spread making a web like pattern
The entire body was covered in a white fire which covered his entire body and covered the top of his head and then spread through his face and made it white entirely with only the golden light formed due to the crimson flames to remain
His height also decreased to 240m and the dangerous aura around him subsided
"So this is the mystical skill called Mystic Cover?" Leo was surprised by the change in his entire body
[Congratulations Host, You have achieved the first evolution Template as a reward the system will upgrade your "Titan form"]
[Upgrade complete, Titan Form(Mystic) has been upgraded to Terror Form(Ancient)]
Suddenly a huge amount of memories entered his brain which resembles the ancient times when the spiders ruled the world
"Leo!" Rose ran towards him
"What happened to you?!" Rose said with a worried face
"I evolved nothing else" Leo Explained
"No way! That phenomenon can't be just because of that!" Rose complained
Rose tried to touch the body but the flames burned her legs
"Ouch!" Rose took a step back
The white flames reached a temperature of 10,000°C but they won't burn anything unless it detects a abnormal source
"You have changed!" Rose was stunned
Rose looked at whole body which was covered by the flames and then at the golden light from his eyes
"Why is your eyes different?" Rose asked with a doubtful tone
Everyone else also looked at Leo
"Who is there?" Leo said while looking at a side on the ceiling
In the forest,
"Ugh!" The Scarlet Spider Mother held her heads due to the pain
"What is that kid even to be able to break my strongest skill like it was a toy and even detecting my presence!" The Scarlet Spider Mother trembled
"He is a monster , he must be!" The Scarlet Spider trembled again
"I need to get out of here!" She said and began to walk away from the territory
Back to the palace,
"Show me your eyes!" Rose complained
"No" Leo rejected the idea
"You made me do this!" Rose said and used her ice powers towards his eyes
Leo was not prepared and got hit in the eyes causing the white flames in that region to become full
"Ugh!" Leo said and looked at Rose who was trembling
Rose and the others saw a pair of hollow eyes with no eyeballs and only crimson red flames escaping out of it like as if something from hell was looking at them
The group quickly fled and ran to their own room while Ember accidentally fainted and was left by the group but he wasater dragged by Saphy who was courageous enough to come there again and ran back with Ember
Leo didn't say anything and simply walked to his own room then barricaded it
