Chapter 592 Beelzebub's Evolution
-----
This…
-----
[Rolling Poisonous Cocoon]
[Rank]: [D-]
A Poisonous Larva that has covered itself with a thread produced from its saliva. It has covered itself in this temporary, yet slightly frail armor as its internal body undergoes extreme metamorphosis. They can move by rolling around, and their eyes are exposed within the threads covering their ever-changing bodies.
They can spit venom at long distances which burns the face of their victims, allowing them to escape rapidly. However, they're extremely frail, once their cocoon breaks, all of their internal body will flow off, dying miserably and painfully.
Additional Information: They grow slower and are weaker than normal but have a great evolution potential once they reach their max level.
-----
This was the ideal evolution for Beelzebub! We'll make him grow slower, but then he'll get even cooler evolution options later than just a giant and boring slug thing!
"Oh, Sylphy, is there a good evolution? Tell me! Tell me!"
Beelzebub wanted to know, but I selected the evolution option before I could show him what it was.
Ding!
[You've selected the [Rolling Poisonous Cocoon] [Rank]: [D-] Evolution Option for [Beelzebub]!]
F L A A A S H!
Right after selecting the evolution option, Beelzebub began to glow.
"UOOOHHH! Is this strong?! I can feel my body growing bigger and starting to be… covered on something! Wait, is this exoskeleton?! Am I become a giant fly once more?! Alright! With this I can finally regain my former strength as the Lord of the Flies! Gahahahaha!"
As Beelzebub celebrated, his entire body changed, becoming twice as big as a house cat, and round, oval shaped. The cocoon covering his body was purple-colored thread, harder than stones. And the only thing I could see from his real body were his two red eyes gazing from within the interior of the cocoon.
"Ah! Here it is, my ultimate evolution! It feels so good to evolve! I am so strong now! I… Huh?"
Beelzebub quickly cut it out as he realized he wasn't as awesome as he wanted to look like. He started analyzing his own body in detail in silence.
"S-Sylphy… What is this?! Why am I a cocoon?! I never became one in my previous life! Flies don't use cocoons, we simply molt and become flies from our larval stages! W-What the heck is this?!"
It seems that Beelzeflies, the race of Beelzebub, didn't turn into cocoons. They simply transform into flies slowly. From stages, they slowly molt into more fly-like shapes. I guess that's the norm for normal flies as well?
I guess… I might had fucked it up if we wanted him to become a fly then. But let's not worry about it. He can still evolve into one eventually! In fact, I'll use that as an excuse to calm him down.
"Don't worry! You will evolve into one later, definitely!" I said. "This evolution has tons of strong options later, so I choose it! You'll become the strongest and grossest fly ever."
"Ugh… fine." He sighed. "Agh, I don't even have jaws and legs now, how do I eat?!"
I quickly grabbed a piece of cake from my dimensional bag and gave it to him.
"Try eating it."
"Hmm…"
Suddenly, some insect-like jaws popped from his cocoon, as he ate the delicious cake happily.
"Hmmm… Nom nom… It works like this I guess." He said, relaxing a bit.
This fly really loves sweet things, especially cheesecakes, they're his favorites. So I brought a slice just in case he gets a bad evolution or something.
Now let's see his Status…

Yeah, I guess that really works for now. Though I want to check his Skills and what they do. I know what Roll do, Ignatius got it as well, but the rest are interesting and intriguing. Let's see for a tiny bit…
-----
[Aura of Pestilence: Lv3]
A powerful Skill that only special beings that are on par with Demon Lords that possess the ability to manipulate venom, disease, and pestilence can attain. It generates an Aura of Pestilence around the user, which weakens nearby foes by reducing their stats by -5% with each Skill Level. There's a 5% chance to inflict Poison, Fatigue, or Confusion on foes that stand within this Aura.
-----
Oh, I see. So it is because of this Skill that monsters nearby feel so weak out of the sudden! It was all thanks to Beelzebub's aid! Although it seems they don't affect me nor my friends, so it is pretty good. Probably thanks to this, some monsters were more realistically beatable than before. Beelzebub has really helped more than he could imagine.
-----
[Poison Creation: Lv3]
The ability that only beings that have an incredible power over the Poison Element to the point they can create it with their very bodies and mix, manipulate it, and create new one can attain.
As it was implied, this Skill allows for the usage of Mana or Spiritual Energy for the creation of chemicals and all types of poisons. Their power and effectiveness increase by +10% with each Skill Level.
-----
And this is Beelzebub's second Skill, it is one of the most used by him as well. This skill allows him to create powerful poison or acid, which causes damage and inflicts poisons of various effects on foes.
I remember he could create acid that melts over flesh and skin, a poison that can paralyze muscles if injected, another that hastens bleed, other that makes small wounds slowly get worse, and even some poison that wasn't even poison at all, which was a chemical mixture that stopped bleeding and helped at healing wounds.
