Fantasy System

Chapter 123: Triple Evolution

Ed checked his Inventory once more. He pretty much memorized everything inside, but he still chose to look at the items there. Other than the Transformation and Healing card, he had two Upgrade cards. He could evolve one of his three remaining Epic grade monsters. But, he was adamant about leveling them up together. Such was the usual case for them. They were drawn at the same time, and all the previous evolution were done at the time as well.

'System, use four Gacha tickets on Function Gacha." Ed usually used up all ten tickets at once, but now he only needed to get four more Upgrade cards. If he was lucky, he would get all four of them at once. He would end up having the chances to draw other things with his remaining six.

[Drawing Gacha please wait]

*Ding*

Acquired Upgrade cardx2, Transformation card, Healing card.

As expected, things didn't go as Ed had planned. He had to draw the Function Gacha once more.

He used two cards this time and waited patiently.

*Ding*

Acquired Upgrade card, Equipment set.

'Hmm, what's that?' Ed wondered about the weird thing that appeared. He was about to check its details but decided to wait until he was done.

Once more, he used the Function Gacha with one card.

Acquired Upgrade card.

"Finally!" Ed shouted while laying on a bed, making the others startled.

"Gobuta, Goburou, Garu. Time to evolve!" Ed looked at the three of them impatiently. With this, all of his monsters would have reached Legendary grade. Ed didn't meet any monster tamers like him, but he was almost sure no one was like him. Be it the grade of his monsters or their quality, it was too different.

"Use Upgrade cardx2 on each one of them!" Ed told the system what to do and crushed the six cards. Instantly, different kinds of colored light surrounded the three of them.

"What is this" Sieg who never witnessed an evolution sequence was bewildered. "Oh, that's right." Ed looked at him and remembered that he never explained such things.

"I told you I have another power. Well, this is one of its uses. I'm able to increase the quality of my companions, of course, that includes you." Ed gave him a brief summary of one of his system's many abilities. Sieg also understood that he would be able to attain Mythical grade as long as he stays with Ed. Not many people ever witnessed a Mythical monster and lived to tell the tale.

Ed turned his attention back to Gobuta and the others. The light that surrounded each one of them looked different by now.

The sphere of light, or rather it should be called the sphere of darkness, that surrounded Gobuta had a murky feeling to it. If one could describe it, it would be closely similar to a mud swamp that was purple-black in color. Ed could feel Gobuta's Qi, and more importantly his aura, getting stronger and stronger. It also had a bit of maliciousness towards it, but Ed didn't matter as it wasn't directed at him or the others. It was simply that way.

Goburou's sphere could be described by one word. Blood. It looked like a round drop of blood that was swirling around. If Gobuta's aura had maliciousness, then Goburou's was filled with bloodlust. 'Is it actual bloodlust or is he simply hungry' Ed smiled wryly.

Finally, Garu who was far on the right was surrounded by a blue sphere of ice. Unlike the two before him, the aura that was getting stronger was like water in a dam. This, in fact, made it more frightening. Everyone could feel that the dam would break at any moment by the overflowing aura.

Almost the same amount of time that usually passed when evolving ticked away. The three of them emerged. The spheres that surrounded them looked like a boiled egg being peeled as they came out. Gobuta and Garu had a significant size increase while Goburou's was a modest increase. He was taller than Ed this time.

Congratulations Gobuta evolved into Demon Lord (Ogre)

Congratulations Goburou evolved into Vampire

Congratulations Gary evolved into Lycan

Ed checked the notifications and studied the differences in each one of them closely.

Gobuta grew to almost two and a half meters. Horns appeared on top of his ears and extended to above his eyes. His skin was dark green with tattoos extending from his shoulders to his wrists. Unlike before, his eyes now had a golden color and his irises were surrounded by a dark circle. His eyes looked like a hawk's, making him very imposing.

Goburou's changes were also remarkable. He was over 180 cm tall. His hair had a pristine dark color and his eyes, and lips were crimson red. Even redder compared to the scorpion that Ed killed yesterday. He even got his own clothes from the evolution. 'Is it a gift from the system?' Ed wondered. He was wearing a black cape that was red on the inside, while he had a white undershirt. It looked very similar to the clothes vampire wore back in Ed's world. In movies of course.

Garu was over three meters now. If he were to walk in any street in the world, he would probably stand taller than all humans. Even big people like Leonard or Scale kingdom's general would look tiny next to him. His fur and eyes were now silvery blue. His claws looked as sharp as the sword Ed had crafted for his family. Unlike Goburou, and like Gobuta, he didn't get any new clothes.

"Congratulations you guys!" Ed was joyous that all his companions were very strong right now. Even their cultivation was now higher than his at Earth Establishment level 10. Same as Suika, they would probably breakthrough at any moment. Sieg was on the side marveling at the sight before him.

'System, use the remaining four tickets on the Skill Gacha.' Ed didn't forget about the tickets he still had.

*Ding*

Acquired Programming, Fire magic, Water magic, Caligraphy.

Ed's eyes were twitching at the skills in front of him. He had just gotten Water magic on an earlier floor. Calligraphy was useless for battle, but he still crushed it acquiring the skill.

'System, does that Programming skill have anything to do with magic theory or something,' Ed wanted to believe in his system, so he asked.

[No it's computer programming] such was the answer.

'And why the hell would you have that in a cultivation world!!!' Ed retorted in his mind while imagining himself threw something at the ground.
