I Shall Evolve Everything

Chapter 134 Assault (1)



A great flash of light, a crushing presence, those were the first things that I could feel as Delta and Rhea appeared from their evolution.

"Are you ok?" Rhea worriedly asked Delta, checking her body for any wounds and finding none which wasn't weird, it seemed like every time I evolved something that they would be repaired.

Absentmindedly I noticed the slight bang of something impacting the warehouse of the research hall. However my attention was soon brought back to Delta, she had closed her fist, looking at it intently. Power burst from her body as the gravity of the room increased. It took me reinforcing my whole body just to resist the power that she had released.

Though just as quickly as it was released was it contained, a faint feeling of power still surrounded her but at least the gravity was returned to normal.

"We were recently attacked, yes?" Delta asked, looking at me with her usual deadpan face.

"Yeah, by the Gaul's"

A nod of her head and the tapping of footsteps were the only notice I was given as her form soon disappeared from the room, heading for what I could only assume to be the Gaul's.

I would not stop her though, there was no reason to. With how much strength Delta had achieved in her evolution I had no doubt that they would pose no problem.

Rhea, who had sat stunned at the display of power, recollected herself, running towards Delta.

Only stopping to say a "Thank you, My Lord" before quickly passing me to follow after Delta.

Melina beside me had already placed her head upon my shoulder waiting for me to make my decision.

"Hah" I sigh, I had not expected for Delta to grow so powerful. I had thought that I would have to evolve many more things before we could fight back but with this progress all it would take as a couple more evolutions before we would be unstoppable in this realm.

But what then, yes I have always had the desire to conquer everything, to take every realm for my own but what now.

I have nothing to do, nothing to accomplish, everything I would accomplish would be done by my subordinates, not by my own power.

I sat on the ground, the cold steel of the ground reaching my legs. I grabbed my spear from where it hung on my back and looked down on it.

This spear had been with me for as long as I was fighting here, I had been intending to create a new one, one that used materials evolved to their peak but now, now I was attached to it.

'Evolve'

I thought to myself, targeting the spear and myself.

I did not know if this would work. I had never tested if an object and a living being could evolve together.

A light, this time of no color consumed me. My vision soon turned to black as a void of nothingness filled my vision.

Behind me I could hear Rhea following. I stopped, leaning against the wall as I waited for her to catch up to me.

The sound of almost silent footfalls fell upon my ears as my apprentice walked up to me. A weapon not of my make holstered at her side.

"Stay here" I commanded, there was no use in taking her with me. This extermination was to test my newfound abilities and strength, not to temper my apprentice in blood.

"No" my eyes opened slightly at the open defiance, this had never happened. Usually Rhea was obedient, the perfect apprentice.

"I'm coming, I don't care what you think of it" She finished.

"Hah" I sighed, my eyes slightly narrowing as I stared at her.

"Gabriel" I broke the silence between us, my weapons were at the side of the bed along with most of my clothes as I tucked myself into the bed that was given to us.

"Yes, Naomi?" She responded, her hands stopped undressing herself as she looked at me in askance.

"Was this the right decision?"

"Hmm…" Gabriel hummed, setting down her clothes as she walked over to the second bed and sat down. "What do you mean, you've seen their power just as I have, there was no other choice"

"I… I guess but did we have to, we could have fought on our own. There was no reason for us to submit so easily."

A shake of her head was all the response I got, Gabriel placing the sheets on top of herself as she closed her eyes, seemingly ready to sleep.

"Look at this luxury, it will just get better and better, anything that we do to surpass this would only be a token effort. There really was only one option." With those final words Gabriel fell asleep, her tail absently swishing this way and that.

"I guess…" I said to no one in particular, my own eyes closing as I let myself fall into unconsciousness.

My back ached as my body rose from its place on the couch. I had expected to find Darwin still cuddling me when I woke again but to my disappointment I found only a blanket covering my form and a pillow that I had hugged in lieu of Darwin.

With a swipe of my hands and a shrug of my will, the blanket was thrown from my body and vanished into nothing.

I rose from the couch, my back arching as I stretched the aches from my back.

growl

A low groan echoed from my stomach as hunger assaulted my body. Looking to the next room I found the kitchen, a fridge of some sort standing in the corner.

I walked towards the fridge and upon reaching it looked at its contents. All that was in there was some meat and other arrangements of food that needed to be refrigerated.

I took out some of the meat and placed it on the counter, turning on the stove and placing a pan upon it immediately after.

Turning to the cabinet I find the spice cabinet and to my surprise it was filled, there was even olive oil that I could pan fry the meat in. However, despite the options that the spice cabinet gave me I did not know how to cook too well so I opted to just use salt and pepper, a tried and true method.

Sitting down, I waited for the food to rest as I stared at it, my stomach protesting at the necessary step.

Though soon after it was done and I could finally dig in. It was not as good as Tama's cooking but it was better than nothing.
