Seeing that Sylph was giving him no 'face' at all, turning its little feathered butt towards him, Ethan felt a burst of frustration. He then turned to look at Lily, giving her his best pleading eyes, hoping she could persuade Sylph for him. However, Lily simply turned her head to the side, looking at a particularly interesting spot on the ceiling, clearly not wanting to get involved in this matter.

"Don't look at me," she said coolly. "If you want her to do something, you go do it yourself. I'm not helping you."

Hearing this, Ethan sighed helplessly. It seemed that getting Lily to help was a lost cause. He could only brace himself and try to properly coax the pouting Wind Spirit. "Hey, Sylph," he began, his voice syrupy sweet, "be good now, can you please help me out? Just stop on this watch for a little bit. You're the most beautiful, the greatest, the swiftest Wind Spirit in all the land, right? I'm sure it won't take even a little bit of your precious time. It'll be quick… pretty please with sugar on top?"

In order to get Sylph to help, Ethan could be said to have wracked his brains, using every term of praise and flattery he could possibly think of on her. It was a sight to behold! At this moment, Ethan was trying so hard that the voice of a grown man was about to crack from the sheer effort of his cajoling.

After a long session of this relentless praise, Ethan finally succeeded in coaxing Sylph. She turned her little head around with a look of smug satisfaction, then lightly, gracefully, lay down on Ethan's offered Omnitrix. The moment Sylph touched the watch, it suddenly emitted a dazzling, brilliant yellow light, like a bright pearl. This sudden burst of light startled Sylph, causing her to fly up quickly, and she chirped sharply at Ethan. Chirp, chirp, chirp! From her indignant tone, one could tell she was scolding him quite harshly for the trick.

However, Ethan ignored her, instead focusing his full attention on his watch. Lily and Sylph also looked over curiously. At this moment, the face of the watch had turned a brilliant yellow and was constantly rotating, its internal mechanisms whirring as if it were loading something new. After about half a minute, the watch finally returned to its original green state.

Ethan eagerly activated the watch and turned the dial to the newly appeared silhouette. Looking at the icon on it, which was clearly that of a small bird, he let out a triumphant cry. "Awesome!" While shouting excitedly, Ethan couldn't wait to press the watch face down.

In an instant, a flash of green light, and a new green-and-blue bird that looked very similar to Sylph appeared on the spot. The main difference was, on its forehead, there was a mini Omnitrix symbol. Sylph and Lily's eyes widened like saucers, looking at this unbelievable scene in utter disbelief.

Lily said in astonishment, "My god, Ethan, what kind of mechanism is this psionic ability of yours? How can it even change into this?"

Sylph also chirped, expressing its own confusion and bewilderment at this strange change. (How did the master's nephew suddenly turn into my exact likeness!)

Ethan, in his new Wind Spirit form, smiled and comforted Sylph. "Don't be so nervous, Sylph, it's just a small application of my ability."

Lily's eyes widened even further as she looked at him and asked, "You… you can understand what she's saying!"

Sylph also made a questioning sound, chirping directly at him, "Chirp chirp chirp!" (You can really understand what I'm saying!)

Ethan replied with a smug smile, his voice a series of pleasant, melodic chirps that they could now somehow understand. "Of course. After all, the two of us are now of the same race. We have our own unique language system. Of course, I can talk to her."

Lily asked curiously, "Alright, then can you also use her abilities?"

Ethan answered honestly, "To be precise, it's the ability of this race." With that, Ethan flapped his wings, and a gust of gentle breeze rose around him, merely blowing away some scraps of paper on a nearby table. After all, this was at home, in a narrow room. Ethan didn't dare to use too much force. But this demonstration was already shocking enough.

Lily: "Not only can you transform into a Wind Spirit, but you can also talk to them and even use their abilities. You must know, Ethan, only those who have signed a formal, psionic contract with an Elemental Spirit can understand their general meaning through that telepathic contract and communicate with them."

Ethan: "But being able to telepathically communicate with an Elemental Spirit doesn't mean you understand their actual language. For example, you can understand what I'm saying right now because I'm using human language, which is the language we've always known. If I were to switch to another language you didn't know, you wouldn't be able to understand. After I transformed into a Wind Spirit, I instantly learned their entire language system, so now I can converse freely with the spirit."

Sylph, looking at Ethan's new form, chirped admiringly, "So handsome~~"

Ethan's new bird form froze. "Huh???"

Seeing Ethan look over at her, Sylph shyly covered her little face with her wings and quickly hid behind Lily.

Lily: "..." So my precious, rare Elemental Spirit is actually a complete face-con.

Ethan was so frightened by this unexpected development that he quickly reverted to his original human form. He didn't want to be pursued romantically by a bird, of all things. However, deep down, he was still very happy. After all, this also showed that he was still very charming, hehehe. After being slightly narcissistic for a moment, Ethan began to think about other, more serious issues.

It seems that the Omnitrix's DNA scanning function has also been converted into one of my abilities. I just don't know if there are any restrictions on it. Just like my current alien heroes are unlocked one by one as I advance in rank, this scanning ability should also have some kind of restriction or cooldown.

However, he wasn't given much time to think. Lily began to question him, her expression now deadly serious. "Ethan, what exactly is this ability of yours? Being able to transform into multiple, distinct forms... I can swallow that, barely. But Sylph is a pure Wind Spirit, an elemental being. You can't just 'transform' into her race. These are two completely different, powerful types of abilities. Either one of them on its own is extremely formidable, but to have both abilities fused into one, this is definitely not something an Earth-rank talent should possess."

Ethan looked around nervously. "There shouldn't be any eavesdroppers or listening devices around here, right?"

"Relax," Lily said. "No one will be able to hear us talking." With that, she waved her hand and released a thin, almost invisible barrier of psionic energy, completely isolating their voices inside the room so that not a single sound would leak out.

Ethan took a deep breath. "Actually, this ability of mine can also be considered a type of beastification, or transformation. It's just that compared to others, there are quite a few more variables. In addition, this transformation of mine is not an ordinary, superficial transformation, but a complete change from the genetic level." He held up the Omnitrix for Lily to see. "Each alien form in here is actually a complete set of stored DNA. When I use it, the corresponding DNA will completely reorganize my original human DNA. At that time, I will literally become another species entirely, no longer human, and I can possess all the abilities of that species. The Wind Spirit is a very good example of this process in action."

"DNA restructuring? It completely turns you into another species," Lily murmured, her expression growing complex, very similar to the fanatical look he'd seen on members of the Evolution Cult.

Ethan held his hands up defensively. "I swear, Sis Lily, I have absolutely nothing to do with that group of lunatics!"

"I didn't say you were related to them," Lily said, her serious expression returning. "However, you'll have to be even more careful in the future, Ethan. After all, if those lunatics from the Evolution Cult ever find out about the true use of this ability of yours, they will definitely stop at nothing to capture you, even if it means deploying their strongest combat forces to do it."

Hearing what she said, Ethan felt a genuine chill of fear run down his spine. "It can't be that serious, can it?"
