pain this pain a pain all this pain I almost forgot how much it hurt the first time you are changing your body for the better, to evolve to evolve oneself into a greater of being even just a strengthening of the skill carries a large amount oof pain this pain I will grow to adjust it and adapt to it all over again but right now all I can do is grit my teeth and endure the pain and allow the process to proceed at its own pace.

luckily for them they didn't need to endure for long the process completed itself and they took a few breaths before opening up the Ark to see their new status on their skill.

[Claw intermediary-as a member of the beast of the race you are born with harden claw with refine sharpness to fight and defend yourself. Damage of the claw is depending on agility and hit per every 4 points of agility.]

seeing the new skill description Bathsheba could not help but look down at their Claw just as the skills described their claw were harden and the tips of their claw were sharp like an refine iron blade the damage on their claw that they acquired in their last fight with Eyal has healed up and their arms and their hands are stronger even their arms were more tone. 

but only 4 points of agility. I was hoping for more but given my new as rat kin this generous for the skill advancement for rat kin to earn looking away from their claw they look be at their current amount essences.

[Current essences. 392055]

with this amount of essences, I can advancement a few more skill and tasting out my idea.

Bathsheba look to another skill on their skills list. 

Mauled-As a member of the Beast race you are born with teeth and an shough jaws them tear your target apart. The Damage of Mauled is equal to current strength stat.

[assessing the scale the approximate level of essence needed will be over 2.500.]

[current essence court 692555]

[would the host like to initiate the advancement of the skill Mauled?]

 once again Bathsheba took a deep breath to calm their mind.

[initiate the advancement of the skill Mauled using 2500 essence utilize to strengthening of the skill Mauled please be patient and endure through the advancements.]

once again pain and this time the pain was intense this time this pain was in Bathsheba face and jaw muscle they could the pain in the very nerve reaching into their spine. the strengthening of the tendons the circular system were rapidly changing and evolving through the consumption of essence.

Bathsheba could feel the change the with the bone structure of my jaw and teeth making them stronger, tougher and sharper this physical manifestation of the skills strengthening is unique but also incredibly painful.

soon the pain pass unclenched their job before taking a deep breath to calm down their mind and looking at their change in the skill description.

Mauled-as a member of the beast race you are born with sharp teeth and a shough jaw use then tear your target apart. Damage of Mauled as equal to current strength stat.

the description of Mauled did not change must but Bathsheba could feel the change in their jaw and teeth they were hardness and strength of their bond and jaw have increased greatly the structure of my bones of increased greatly.

render tongue against their teeth feeling the sharpness of their teeth and strength in your jaw they are pleased by this Evolution even though it is not that extensive.

Bathsheba make their way to one of the barrels in the stone storage room even with their improved growth thing to their level up and improve meals the barrel was still twice their size.

with a soft moment they strike at the barrel to test their claw their claw through the barrel cut through the barrel quite easily, but the cut was so thin that none of the mushroom fell out and with an quick moment bit down on the corner of barrel using bite their surprisingly they took a good chunk out of the barrel corner and even more surprisingly is that they accidentally swallow the a chunk of the wood and it instantly dissolved in down the throat

how terrifying is the digestive system of these creatures to eat wood like an termite.

shaking their head to clear the thoughts and focus back on their little experiment that they're doing and look to their abundance of essence 

[Current essence court. 3900005]

now for the skill stealth

[Stealth-with the host powerful soul they can control their body functions to precise control and suppress their presence and remain hidden.]

// Notice-enemies with a stronger senses or Aura can notice the host presence. //

// Initiating the advancement of the skill [Stealth] using 2500 essence utilize to strengthening of the skill please be patient and endure through the skill advancement. //

As the essences was use and the skill Stealth change Bathsheba could fill the force of their soul strange leaking into every cell of their body causing a fundamental change in their body

filling the changes in your body they can look at the new skill description to see you or has changed in the skill

[Stealth-by utilizing the host strong soul strength there are able to suppress their presence and their sound and scent that their body releases]

seeing the skill description Bathsheba could understand the changed in the body it did not show in the description, but they could feel the control in their body has increased greatly thank to the bid of their soul strength mixed in the cell of their body

Bathsheba begin to move their body in strange and different ways to feel the changed in the control of their body with their soul imbued their body cell

after swiping their claw in the air for few times their stop

this is good with this control over my body I don't need to tax my soul or put pressure on my soul when I engage in combat.

Bathsheba reach in to one of the open crates and grab one of the pink mushroom "Equbrosia" put it in their maw and chew it flavor was bland, but it ceases to sting of hunger from their stomach 

stop to focus on their mind back at their skill they were going to continue advancing their skill but then they stop and connect to the Ark and open their status to their core source

// Core Source, Mistress of Mirror, The Star Maker, Plague Baron, Fallen Sorcerer, Unknown Deity //

Look at the Core Source Fallen Sorcerer and their jade eyes shine and said themself its time 

with the experience of their past life they were able to change their Secondary Ark 

//Notice the host has changed the Secondary Ark from [The Star Maker] to [The Fallen Sorcerer]//

//Primary Ark Mistress of Mirror Level 10 0/1100 Secondary Ark The Fallen Sorcerer Level 1 0/100//

My attempt to manipulate the Secondary Ark was successful now with the core source of [The Fallen Sorcerer] the core source that are the remain of my life now let get my hops and see with my old skill or Endowment and Blood Potential i had many skill in my life but i do wonder what the Ark think are my core skill

// Notice //

// Would host like to use 100 essences to strengthen the connect to the wisp of The Fallen Sorcerer //

//Accept//

//Notice//

//The host had use 100 essences to strengthen the connect to the wisp of The Fallen Sorcerer//

//Secondary Ark: The Fallen Sorcerer level 2 0/200//

health+20 mana+20 power+15 stamina+15 strength+5 vitality+10intelligence+5

//New Endowment less mage root//

[Mana+50]

there it is on my first try 

[Less Mage Root-The Mage Root is the key sensory organ is an necessary for mage to connect to and could control the elemental energy of the world together spells, ruin enchantment and Elemental Affinity]

//Notice//

//The host had acquired a Less Mage Root //

//Notice //

//The Host had acquired a Mage Root now with equipped with the Mage Root the Host may select Elemental Affinity please select an Elemental Affinity //

[Option one. neutral mana affinity]

[Option two. water mana affinity]

//Notice //

//No other choices can condensed with current environment //

on my first try, I got the mage root Endowment i thought it will take much more essence to get my hands/claw on its.

it may be a less mage root but it's enough for the bare minimum for the neutral mana affinity

with a simple thought of their mind, they made their choice. 

// Notice //

// That the host had chosen neutral mana affinity //

as the choice was made Bathsheba could feel an change in their body in their pressure in their head at the beginning of their fronts brain the organ is growing on their brain a sensory the mage root the sensory organ know to helps them proceeding with me flow of mana around them, now they could feel the small amount neutral mana in the air.

They're not much of neutral mana in this cave or these mountains there were water mana, ice mana and earth mana there were very little of the order elemental energy

Bathsheba could feel their mage root on their cerebral cortex between their two hemispheres given me back my old six sense of mana sensitivity with mana sensitivity you could feel treasures in the ground magical or magical creatures or medicinal plants caring magical energy and attack from distance by a mage by feeling the activity of mana in the air it very weak right now but, I change it later

Bathsheba waited for a moment just standing circulating their mana through their body with the aid with the aid of their mage root waiting for the notification that they were certain to come.

//Notice//

//New action has established a new evolutionary choice for the host//

//The host had acquired evolutionary choice [Neutral Elemental Core Rat kin] is now available.//

[Rare Neutral Elemental Core Rat kin-A unique creature that is either born in artificial condition are in unique places of nature. the neutral elemental core has been established within them granting them affinity for neutral magic and a clarity that is beyond most of the race. stamina 10 mana 50 strength 5 vitality 5 intelligence 10]

there it is new evolutionary choice and with an elemental as well. I had to change my body greatly before i could manifest false one 

Mana cores are the greatest endowment a beast or creature of magical origin can have for they will constantly direct the creature into the direction of element at the magical represent and also infuse their organ and being with more magical power they can even supply a second pool of mana if they are well developed, and this one is a real one!!!
