[Warehouse: …]

Selecting the evolution button doesn't pull up an evolution window.

[Confirm/Deny]]

It just pulls the final screen up, honestly it unnerves me. In all my uses of evolution there has always been an option even if it is only one option.

Either way I can't back out now, this world is dangerous, even with the protection of Delta and Tama there are still things that can overcome them. Not even counting that they would have to protect Aoif and I.

Strengthening my resolve I pressed the confirm option.

…

Darkness, all I could see for the first few seconds was darkness.

It was as if all of my senses were turned off for a minute.

[You have been sent to the first realm of evolution, progress to tier 8 and/or *#%* to leave/continue]

The darkness surrounding my vision disappeared and the view left me stunned.

Mountains so tall it seemed like they were taller than the world itself.

The mountains were surrounding the biggest tree I had ever seen.

Two roots twirling up into a canopy.

It was the greenest green I had ever seen.

And circling the tree were two dragons, their height indeterminable.

All I could infer was that they were larger than the forest below them.

Speaking of the forest, from where I was, on top of a large hill adjacent to the base of one of the mountains, the forest was like a whole world in of itself.

Just from my position alone I could see hundreds of millions of trees off into the distance.

'It seems I was noticed'

bringing me out of my reverie of the surroundings was a small boar.

I set my spear into a ready position.

My eyes are firmly focused on the boar.

Silently the boar stalks up to me, all the while keeping an eye on the tip of the spear and my tensed muscles.

When the boar was in my range I dash as fast as I could simultaneously bringing the tip of the spear to pierce the neck of the boar

*TING*

Instead of what I was expecting the spear instead bounces off the board hide.

It was as if the boar was made of metal.

Even if the spear was crudely made it should still have been able to pierce a board hide.

While I was shaking off my surprise the Boar advanced.

Seeing this at the last moment I try to leap to the side but all I was able to do was stumble to the right narrowly avoiding a fatal hit and instead taking a hit to the left abdomen.

"AHH" I cry out in pain.

'Think'

'What can you do'

'The spear can't pierce the boar it isn't sharp enough to do that'

'What if I reinforce the spear with aether? That might work'

Not giving me any more time to think the boar advances once again.

Clutching my spear in one hand and my wound in another I glare at the boar.

I start up my pathways directing the dormant aether from my pathways into the ones holding the spear then from those pathways I try and push out the aether onto the spear.

Small cuts appear on my hand and what leaks from them Isn't blood but a glowing green gas.

This coalesces onto the spear tip encasing it with a green glow.

The spear undergoes a transformation.

The wood becomes archaic in appearance.

Instead of looking like preserved wood it looks like an ancient branch, one that has been fossilized from many centuries of time.

The spear tip goes through an even greater transformation, in that it turns from a simple metal spearhead to what looks like some sort of green metal spearhead that is completely fused into the spear handle.

The spearhead was razor sharp from what I could see and swinging it cut the air.

This time instead of letting the boar come to me I instead charged at it.

When I was close enough I did the same thing I did the first time and slashed up.

The difference this time was that the spear was actually able to cut through the thick hide of the boar.

Blood started flowing from the wound. However it wasn't dead.

The cut wasn't placed in the right place.

Instead of hitting the throat like I intended the spear had hit right under the throat.

Although it was fatal given enough time I didn't want to give it any time to attack so I sidestepped the desperate lunge at me, wincing as my wound acted up.

Then I angled my spear down again and struck it right through the skull, skewering the brain.

…

[You have advanced to tier/level 9/4]

"Hah"

"Hah"

Sitting down on the ground with my back to a nearby boulder I check my wounds.

On my left abdomen is a stab wound completely exposed where the boar had torn through.

Ripping up my clothing I use a long strip of the ripped clothing to bind the wound.

After I had done that I checked the notification that the system had sent.

It seems like either through combat or practice your level will go up.

I don't know if that will hold true to breaking through the next tier but for now as my aether had been mostly reset after leveling up I tried to direct it to my wound intending to heal it.

I place the hand that was still bleeding from the reinforcement of the spear onto my wound then use some of my aether to heal my wound, hopefully.

…

Green wisps of light escaped from the preexisting cuts and headed towards my wound.

The wound gradually patched up but it wasn't magical.

Like one moment the wound was there and the next it wasn't.

It wasn't like that but instead the wound looked like it had gone through 6 months of healing.

*Grumble*

My stomach grumbled and I realized how hungry I am not only from fighting but from healing too.

"Odd" I say to no one.
