Will of chaos

"Why all this madness all of a sudden?" (I)

Orion was a lifesaver for me this time, I looked down and noticed some strange things, there were some races I didn't know mixed up in the crowd.

"Everyone is happy that you're back, but more than that, they want to show how much they've improved." (Orion)

"With Ibuki running to you, the most anxious ones lost control and got carried away by the moment, especially the Lamias." (Orion)

"(Now that he's spoken, I think I felt something wrapping around me earlier.)" (I)

"Take me downstairs, let's settle things for good." (I)

"Right." (Orion)

Orion takes me downstairs, with that there were already people to appease the situation like Ivan, Vanessa, Irius, Irina, Kira, and Karina.

Sakura was tying up Someone whom I suspected from the screams was Erica, I noticed that many looked a little different.

After a few minutes of controlling that situation, I talk to everyone congratulating them on a job well done and giving everyone rewards.

After asking Nira to take care of sorting out the rewards for everyone, I head inside the tower along with the people in my group to keep up to date on everything that's changed while I'm gone.

Some among my group had evolved like Ibuki, Ivan, Erica, Alice, Irius, Irina, Lyra, Vanessa, Rakan, and Leo.

These are the races of everyone that evolved:

Ibuki --> Oni of the Abyss

Ivan --> Royal Knight of Death

Erica --> Demon Witch

Alice --> Vampire Countess

Irius --> Vampire Archduke

Irina --> Vampire Archduchess

Lyra --> Transcendent Homunculus

Vanessa --> Fallen Celestial Vampire Princess

Rakan --> Arcane Runic

Leo --> Ancestral Beast Man (Lion)

Everyone became stronger, the truth is that many others from Dungeon also managed to evolve after so many battles, but I am happier to see my family become stronger.

Erica had become some kind of Witch, her appearance hasn't changed much, but her Aura is much stronger and I can feel a lot of Mana in her body.

Ibuki had smooth white skin with black tattoos all over her body, she was 1.60 meters tall, had two black horns and her Aura is deeper and harder to feel.

Ivan looked the same as always, but his Skeleton looked whiter and more resistant, the flames inside his eye sockets were now a mixture of red and gold, I also felt a more dignified presence in her Aura.

Irius and Irina didn't change in their appearances if it had to be said, so they just got a little prettier.

Leo had changed a bit, his body was brown in color, the fur on his body was longer and smoother, his teeth grew a little bit, his height is now 2 meters and according to him, he can now transform into a shape half lion red with wings.

Lyra looked the same, but she had blue jewels on the backs of both of her hands, furthermore, she said that her capacity for the three natural energies had more than doubled, otherwise her appearance was still the same.

Rakan had all the Runes on his body glowing faintly the entire time, I also noticed that his mana pool was on par with Erica's, other than that he looked a few years younger.

Alise was the one that surprised me the most, her body was 1.78 meters tall, she had muscles like an Olympic athlete, her eyes were even redder while her dark blue hair had a red streak, and her chocolate colored skin made her eyes stand out even more as if shining, she was beautiful and luckily the darkness that one day bis in her eyes is gone.

Outside of the people in my group I heard that many female Ogres evolved into Onis, while some of the Men became Minotaurs.

Many Orcs also evolved into a race called Half Giants, women had a height between 2.40 meters to 2.75 meters from what I was told, while men were even bigger with heights ranging from 2.60 meters to 3 meters.

The Nymphs who chose to fight had become Nature Nymphs, they were even more beautiful, and they could easily be mistaken for human women now that their skin was white, they were all beautiful, but even with female appearances, they are still genderless monsters and still not has access to the job system.

Arachnees and Lamias evolved within their own races so they didn't have major changes in their appearance, the same can be said for Werewolves.

Ghouls also evolved within their own race, their external changes being mostly minimal with only a few growing taller or more muscular than before.

People of other races participated in far fewer battles than the races I talked about before, so few among them evolved, the same as the recently added Blood Demons who didn't have any evolution in their group.

-----------

Now I was alone with my group inside the Tower, Nix has been sunk inside my shadow the whole time and Layla had to be tied up as she wanted to beat me to the satisfaction that she was mad at me for being away for so long.

I introduced Athena to everyone, let her tell her story to them, and then introduced the Heretic God who accompanies her, Vanessa was very interested in the story and especially in the Heretic God in question.

Diana had already spoken to everyone and anyone among us could see how much stronger she was than before.

What surprised the others were the two Priests I brought along, but they were forgotten when the Heretic God of Fun was introduced to everyone.

Henry formed an immediate friendship with Ivan, in his words anyone able to materialize a stable mind after death without a Blessing from a God associated with death deserves his respect.

Yara on the other hand liked everything and everyone, she said she loves seeing so many races living together in harmony, but she was happier to know that the Blood Demons are well, a race with such vitality that they bring life wherever they go it's a blessing to simply exist in your opinion.

After a night and day of partying that insisted a lot on being held, everyone was exhausted, but I had no way of knowing any of that since I was stuck in a room for all this time.

The next night I staggered out of the bedroom with an outfit that I haphazardly grabbed from my storage item as the previous outfit was in pieces somewhere in what was left of that bedroom.

"Why didn't you help me?" (I)

"I won't meddle in your relationship with the girls." (Nix)

"But it still didn't go away either." (I)

"Of course not, I've been away from you for a long time, a bond with you is by far the strongest of all your Familiars and Divine Beasts." (Nix)

"Staying away from you is like pulling a fish out of the water to me." (Nix)

"I won't be out of this shade for a week, it's very comfortable here." (Nix)

"Why didn't you tell me that sooner? I could have taken you with me." (I)

"To be honest, I didn't know that either." (Nix)
