I Shall Evolve Everything

Chapter 37 Dual Evolution (3)

?There was no way that I nor Aoif were going to come out of this unscathed so with quick thinking I tackled Aoif to the ground, my back to the air.

*SWOOSH*

Out of the hundreds of arrows that were fired in that volley there was only 10 or so that hit my back. I was thankful for that.

"Nnn Aoif, if you would please."

Nodding at me Aoif climbs out from under me and feeling up my back starts to remove the arrows from my back.

With a grunt of pain all the arrows were taken out of my back. My back was bleeding and I could feel the worry that Aoif was projecting onto me.

…

The armored souls were upon us. Aoif went to draw their attention to her but something unexpected happened.

Instead of the clang of metal bouncing off of metal their armor was cut. It wasn't a large cut nor did it do much damage but it was damage.

We both had seen it. The shock stopped us for a bit but the slicing motion of another soul's ethereal sword chopping down on Aoif brought me out of my shock.

I charged, one hand on my spear the other was on my leg. The one on my leg was channeling aether into the muscles.

Slowly the imperfections in my legs were undone leaving them with the perfected muscles that only hundreds of generations of targeted evolution could succeed in.

The boost to my legs allowed me to cross the distance in an instant.

It almost felt like I was teleporting.

*CLANG*

The sword falling upon Aoif was blocked by the shaft of my spear. It was at that moment that my vision expanded. No longer was I relying on the shared vision of Aoif and I to see the souls but I could see them with my own eyes.

A burst of intense emotion was felt from the side. Instinctually I sent comforting feelings through my soul.

…

'I could see'

I could see, it was a bittersweet emotion that fell upon me. Even with the hope that Darwin had given me, I never thought that I would be able to see this soon

A watery feeling flew down my face blurring my vision.

It was then that I felt something.

~comfort~

A sense of comfort was sent to me. It brought me back from my tears.

I had something to do, I could cry later.

It had happened in mere seconds but that little bit of vulnerability was what brought two devastating attacks upon me.

*CLANG* *SLASH*

One I could block with the dagger I held but the other was able to cut through my defense and slash at my arm.

With my good arm I dashed towards the one that I had blocked.

*SLASH* *SLASH* *PIERCE*

With two quick slashes to break the guard of the soul and one final pierce the soul that I had blocked fell back into nothingness.

After I was done with that I fell back to Darwin who had with the assistance of my soul sight killed three more.

Seeing my injury he retreated to a safe distance with me.

A green glow upon my wound and the wound was healed.

…

We charged back in, no word needed to be said.

I initially attacked drawing the attention of the soul onto me while also breaking its guard allowing Darwin to go in and with two slashes the soul was dead.

Continuing with this pattern, aside from the minor wounds I received when the soul wasn't killed in time, the slaughter was quickly done.

Hundreds of souls dissipated into nothingness.

…

[Congratulations you have advance to tier/level: 7/1]

It was after the latest slaughter, our energy exhausted that we were finally teleported back to wherever in the pandora realm we were.

With a final message congratulating us for advancing to tier 7 we were back.

Now that the evolution was done the revelations of what happened dawned upon us.

Aoif was looking around reveling in all the sights she could now see.

While she was looking around I sent her feelings of comfort while looking at my status.

…

I was taking in the sights.

I could see everything clearly no longer was I blind.

For just a minute or two I took in the sights, the trees around me, the grass on the ground, the foliage, I was raking in everything.

After a bit I took my sight of that and took my first look at Darwin's actual appearance.

Cloudy blue eyes, a round cute face, long brown, blonde hair going past his shoulders.

He was so cute. It could be that he was the first human that I had actually seen or maybe it was the personal connection I had to Darwin but excluding that I knew that he was my ideal, he was my type.

I wanted him. I want Darwin.

'He will be mine' I think posesively.

A smile forms on my face as an idea comes to mind. Darwin had never minded no matter how much physical contact I had initiated on him.

I pounce on him. My lips puckered as I toppled him to the ground and stole his lips.

There was no resistance to my kiss so I deepened it.

"Mnnn" a small moan left my lips as I separated from him.

"Ahh" I was rolled over.

Darwin had taken the initiative and started to kiss me even harder. Though he didn't do that at first

He peckered kisses on my neck leading up to the side of my lips before he took them.

I could feel my cheeks redden as the excitement overwhelmed me.

"Hah"

"Hah"

We both panted.

"I love you"

…

I don't know if I had said it first or him but we both partied it to each other nonstop, all the while frantically kissing each other expressing our love in words and with physical actions.

—————-

A/N: a bit of fluff and Darwin and Aoif finally confess to each other.

I hope you enjoyed the chapter.

Now power stones please :)
