Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 184: I am not a pervert

Chapter 184: I am not a pervert

Tamazuki fell into a deep slumber.

His consciousness slipping from his fingers, he could no longer maintain the hybrid form and reverted to a monster form.

Failing to reach the darkness he was in,

<Annoucement. The transformation into Demon Lord, the Harvest Festival, has begun.

Body construction has begun, transforming into a new species>

<Confirmed.

Race: transforming from Tanuki into Heavenly Dog... successful.

All parameters have been greatly increased.

The ability to freely change between material and spiritual bodies has been added.

Species abilities are [Leaf Manipulation, Beast Transformation, Beastialization, Divinity, Super Olfaction, Transmutation, Shapeshifter, Balls Manipulation, and Poison Manipulation]

Now, with regard to Common Skill

[Magic Perception], [Demon Lord's Ambition]

has been added.

End of script. Evolution has been completed>

And, being but a concept of a unique skill, without having any self-awareness, but for the sake of serving its master, [Great Sage] desired to evolve.

<Announcement. Additional evolution shall be attempted.

Attempting to evolve [Great Sage]

Then, instantly...

Unique Skill [Great Sage] has evolved into [Lord of All-Knowing, Minerva]>

It was something inevitable. It was fate. It was something natural that the Harvest Festival would help him to evolve his skill to the better skill known as the Ultimate Skill.

Yet, this wasn't the end. This was only the beginning of the Ultimate Skills spree.

Then, again, evolution resumed.

[Previlage] thus evolved into [Lord of Creation, Brahma]

[Fire] thus evolved into [Lord of Fire, Ra]

[Sword Monarch] thus evolved into [Lord of Sword, Takemikazuchi]

[Immunity] thus evolved into [Lord of Guardian, Mars]

[Gamble King] integrated with [Rich] and thus evolved into [Lord of Wealth, Ebisu]

[Programming] integrated with [Magic] and thus evolved into [Lord of Magic, Solomon]

However, the Harvest Festival didn't end there.

The Gifts Tamazuki would bestow granted to every soul he was related to.

That was the festival that accompanied the evolution.

A festival where a Demon Lord species evolved into the True Demon Lord.

The festival has only begun!

Only a few True Maou existed in this world.

Evolving into such was for a Demon Lord as difficult as for a normal to evolve into a Demon Lord.

Of the ten Demon Lords, only four were True Demon Lords.

Even those who have lived for many eons were not guaranteed such status.

Thus, the Demon Lords watch each other in hopes of preventing others from evolving above them.

Orc Disasters had become one, but it was killed by Tamazuki.

And now, a new True Demon Lord has been born among them.

An event that would destroy the balance of power and bring chaos to their ranks.

Yet, what would they think if, in the future, another True Demon Lord might be born once again?

---

Similarly, as he started his evolution, those monsters who were related to him also got an announcement from the Voice of the World.

<Annouement. Individual: Inugamigyoubu Tamazuki, the transformation into Demon Lord "Harvest Festival" shall now commence. Upon its completion, related monsters shall be blessed with a gift>

Shuna, Shion, and Hakurou were dumbfounded. It had only been a while since they had been named by Tamazuki, yet the Voice of the World told them that they would receive a Gift from his Harvest Festival.

While they were amazed by their Lord, they also felt worried when they thought about what would happen after he finished his evolution.

Would he still become the kind lord they served?

Yet, soon, they were struck by a wave of sleepiness and fell asleep.

---

During his sleep, his consciousness was also regained.

Was it the effect of [Immunity]?

<Wrong. It is the effect of [Lord of Guardian, Mars], master>

"...."

'Great Sage?'

<Wrong. [Great Sage] has evolved into [Lord of Knowledge, Minerva]; thus; as a result, it has become a greater skill>

"..."

Was that a way to show its smugness?

Nevertheless, while he had regained consciousness, he couldn't wake up since it seemed his evolution hadn't been completed.

<Correct. The evolution will be finished in one day. It is advisable to learn the new skill which has been born during the Harvest Festival>

While he was curious as to why his evolution might take time, he also took the advice of [Minerva] as he was curious about his new skills.

Yet, frankly, his skills didn't change much; those skills only became a little stronger and became Ultimate Skills instead of Unique Skills. Oh, two of his skills were also merged into one.

Now, it is time to check his skills.

[Lord of Wealth, Ebisu]

Not being in trouble with money. This was the main function of this ability. Even if he did nothing, he wouldn't be troubled with money. If he did something, he would get more money.

This was the most powerful skill for every slob in this world.

Nevertheless, it was a good ability as every world he was going into would be different from each other. Naturally, their currency would be different, and he also needed to start from the beginning as he didn't have a background, money, or anything whenever he came to the new world.

Yet, now, that matter has been solved, huh?

It was so unbelievable that he wasn't sure how to react.

Then, his second new skill[Lord of Guardian, Mars].

There wasn't much difference from the previous [Immunity]; only the name was different.

This made him speechless, but he also understood how powerful this skill was, so it was normal.

His third skill was [Lord of Sword, Takemikazuchi].

It was a skill to show how powerful his swordsmanship was. In this world, everything that could be seen by eyes could be cut by him. There were a few that he couldn't cut, yet it didn't matter as his swordsmanship would grow stronger.

His fourth skill was [Lord of Magic, Solomon].

This one... was there even a need for an explanation? This skill allowed him to become a powerful magician. That's it.

Somehow, he wanted to go to the world of magic next with this skill, thinking that the effect of this skill would bloom even further.

As for his fifth skill, it was [Lord of Fire, Ra].

This skill... this one, in simple terms, he became a fire. Yes, a fire. He was the incarnation of fire now.

The god of fire was probably him.

Now, for his sixth skill [Lord of Creation, Brahma], there was a huge difference. Before it evolved into an Ultimate Skill, it could only learn the Unique Skill, but that limitation had broken, and it made him able to learn an Ultimate Skill too.

However, even so, he was still unable to learn Intrinsic Skills.

Yet, it was normal as he didn't have the necessary organs capable of learning Intrinsic Skills.

However, he could learn something similar.

Nevertheless, this skill was strong.

Now, the last one, [Lord of All-Knowing, Minerva].

This skill evolved from Rimuru's [Great Sage], and it made him wonder whether this was how the original went, as he felt this skill was different from Rimuru's.

<Correct. I am different>

How confidence...

Still, he felt like it had some consciousness somehow, so should he name it?

<It's not necessary, but if you want, then please>

"...."

He didn't have anything to do after all, so he didn't really mind. He thought for a moment and then thought of a name for [Minerva].

'How about Ava?'

He felt an intense will as if going mad from [Minerva].

At the same time, various pieces of information began to flow into his head and became a torrent.

[Notification. Ava was born from Ultimate Skill, Lord of All-Knowledge, Minerva]

[This announcement was concealed by Ava]

Suddenly, the "Voice of the World" had reached his mind.

Evolution?

Again?

Yet, Ava was able to hide this announcement.

[I am Avathe one who will support my master, Demon Lord Inugamigyoubu Tamazuki's soul.

Master, please use me as you please, okay?]

"...."

Tamazuki felt that he was a pervert for naming his own skill, but well, it was okay, right?

'Yes, nice to meet you, Ava.'

He ignored Ava's previous words.

[Yes, please use me as your slave, master].

"....."

Thus "Ava" was born separate from [Minerva].

"Ava" would play a further role as his sub-brain that unified his abilities and made him stronger.
