Chapter 187 Fenrir's Evolution
Chapter 187 Fenrir's Evolution
-----
It has been three days since the incident with Erdrich, and he has been adapting well. Ellergest, Jack, and Seth seemed to have welcomed him well into the group, and he was showing signs of slowly gaining back part of his sanity, although it still seemed rather dangerous to provoke him, as his demon powers triggered based on his emotions. If he got too upset, he would sometimes begin to emanate a strong demonic aura, so we have to contain him. I have begun to teach him how to control demon energy in secret, but he's going to take some time to learn the basics.
At the very least I awakened his Qi and it immediately turned into Demonic Qi, it seems that demon energy is so prevalent on his body that it instantly mixed with his Qi. Demonic Qi has strong properties but it is extremely hard to manipulate, he's going to take a while to master it. Aside from that, his mana levels are above the norm for his age and talents, so he's an incredible genius, apparently.
He also has a Talent named "Demon Knight" which was the Talent he was born with. It is quite interesting because it is only known for humanity to gain talents, demons have never been seen to have the power of talents, levels, and other things. But because his mother was a woman that modified her body using demon body parts, he inherited such power naturally, and became a half-demon with human's powers, such as talent, levels, and skills.
He has a spirit, which he has been unable to summon for now, he seems to always try to get it out, but it seems to not do so, as if the spirit itself was not obeying him… It was the first time this has happened for Ellergest, so he was very surprised. But we settled it by thinking that he would eventually be able to summon his spirit, whatever a spirit from a demon would be.
As of now we have not gone to hunt yet, Erdrich and Elizabeth had been mostly learning things inside the church while I help with healing and other things to earn money. However, recently I managed to buy enough spirit orbs to upgrade my Spirit Beasts.
Spirit Beasts are the spirits I can freely summon in large quantities using the power of my Spear, Gluttony, whose powers were linked into my soul and therefore they show even in the Grimoire. Gluttony has the power to devour souls, and when it devours spirit orbs from beasts, it can summon a copy of the beast, the beast has a "base" which can only be strengthened by feeding Gluttony more spirit orbs of the same type of beast. I also managed to get a new beast spirit summon by feeding Gluttony the spirit orbs of Walking Mushrooms. Tonight, I decided to check the new upgrades.
"Your spear never ceases to amaze me… To think it can gain new creatures to summon or even strengthen the summons!" Said Eleanora. "Gluttony has truly become an unique weapon of its own."
"Indeed… Now, Fenrir, Spore, come out."
I spread out my shadows and several spirit summons came out. After Gluttony ate a lot of spirit orbs, it increased the max amount of times I can summon spirit beasts. Although they cost a lot of mana for each individual summon, through Mana Cultivation, my MP has been increasing passively, and I've also gained proficiency in magic and skills, there is no day where I don't grow stronger, even if a little bit.
"Woof!"
Fenrir barked loudly, thankfully I had put a deafening barrier made out of Tier 1 Wind Magic. It can deafen sounds from coming out of inside the invisible barrier, so Fenrir can bark all he wants… well, the Fenrirs, as I've summoned around three of them, alongside all the other Orcus and the two Spores I have.
Fenrir had grown stronger after "evolving" and he became a meter larger, so big that he can now carry me on his back. He looks fiercer, and his fur turned completely black from its former grey, he also gained a single unicorn-like horn growing from his forehead, which emanated a strong quantity of energy.
Beast Spirits don't consume mana upon summoning them and can infinitely use their Skills without the need for their own MP, it is a mystery how this happens, but my guess is that they can absorb energy from the environment. I can also do it and increase my natural regeneration of Mana and Qi, but their level of natural absorption of energy from the environment is incredibly efficient, as they seem to always be energetic- although they die very easily with a few hits anyway, even in this evolved form.

"Wow, Fenrir has surely grown stronger!" Said Eleanora, checking the Grimoire, which she was also able to see if I allowed her.
"Yeah, by merely summoning him, I also gain +3 Agility and Dexterity, and his new Skill [Dark Howl] make foes that are not so strong paralyzed in fear, which gives the opportunity to strike… If we use him in team hunts with more of my allies, we could easily surround a large group of monsters or demons and hunt them down swiftly." I looked at Fenrir, who was waving his head. He and his clones sat down over the floor and were lazily acting like house dogs. Eleanora was fascinated by them, as she started to pet them all, their fluffy fur… was enchanting to her.
"You're the cutest dog! Yes, you!" She said, petting them all. She later rested over the floor in between all the Fenrir dogs.
"This is heaven…" She sighed happily.
I didn't knew what to say, but I am glad she's happy.
