Chapter 29: Life after Evolution?
I was resting on the tree. I feel something lurking behind me after my fight with the wolves three days ago. My wound may be close to healing, but it gave me the alarm that I must have the necessary knowledge. I recall seeing a Doctor’s manual in the store.
“Learn to be a doctor [I].” Ah yes, this is it. It cost me 299 coins again.
The sudden influx of information in my head caused a splitting headache that lasted for a few seconds.
It helped me understand how to take temporary measures, and what plants to use for cuts and wounds.
The fight made me realize I am still quite weak compared to the animals that went through the first evolution. Previously, I thought the difference would not be so great. I can confirm this with Eve.
“Eve?”
“Yes Host?”
“Why did I feel powerless against Diana?”
“You are weak Host”
Fuck!! That’s why I asked you.
“The stats of my strength have reached 23 and that of Eve’s should be around 25. There is little difference, so why did I feel powerless against her?”
“After 1st Evolution, a body will undergo qualitative changes. The body can exert more power with the same strength and after 1st Evolution, one can intimidate another if they don’t have similar strength.”
“So you are saying I will be more awesome after the 1st evolution?” I asked Eve confidently.
….
Fuck!!! I knew it. She doesn’t know my awesomeness. But there’s one more important question to deal with before I spank her.
“Eve? They were talking about going to the city? What was that?”
“As previously informed, once a being crosses the threshold of 1st evolution, they must leave the forest; otherwise they will be hunted down.”
Wow, this is brand new information for me. Honestly, my knowledge of this world is limited to being in a jungle and killing for some powers.
“Eve, please tell me, how this world works. Why do we have to leave the forest?”
“On this earth, there are specified areas that have been designated to be the zones of development; beings who cross the threshold of the 1st evolution have to migrate to cities or other places. Those beings that have successfully passed the 1st evolution are eligible to live in the cities, and according to their talents, they will work,” Eve said in an emotionless voice.
She continued, “The being has to leave the forest because it provides an opportunity for others to evolve.”
My eyebrows rose; this world differs completely from earth.
“But how do they know they have evolved?”
“There is a mechanism on this planet that identifies a being who crosses the threshold in a designated area”
“And what is that mechanism?”
“Host is too weak to know the answer”
Seriously!!, every time the same answer, leave it. At least I got to know about new things today. However, not everyone can understand that they need to follow the procedure.
“Eve, How do they know about leaving this place?”
“A messenger will be assigned to those beings who have crossed the threshold. They will have a week to leave this forest and go to their assigned area.”
The future holds too many surprises. First, I must hide from Diana for another four days—otherwise, I will die.
I am sure she will fall in love with me. I will certainly be handsome after evolution. No lady can resist the temptation of being with me. Even Eve will fall for me, but suddenly Eve said in an irritating tone.
“HOST DOES NOT QUALIFY”
WTF! I was dumbfounded! She is seriously going to get spanked one day.
…..
Somewhere far away from this earth, a giggling voice can be heard.
“I can’t wait to meet you too, you’re still the same” Lucia laughed while staring in a direction.”
“Those guys have an idea about you, but I will not let them hurt you this time, at least until you can resist them,” she said in a firm tone before disappearing into the distance.
…..
On a planet, Ramos was watching the performances of other candidates, going through Game of Evolution while murmuring to himself
“This person is quite good; hope he will be the one”
This room is filled with many holographic screens, all of which are showing some kind of live show. Ramos stared at a screen showing a man walking into a building.
A presence awoke him from his reverie, but when he saw the person standing in front of his place, he was utterly shocked.
In the aftermath of that incident, she never left her place, yet she appeared at his door. It may be good or bad news. He did not waste any time and went to meet her.
“Hello Lucia, I am really glad to see you after so many days,” Ramos said politely
Her frown was visible on her face as she replied hurriedly.
“I don’t want us to waste time on useless conversations. You know why I am here, and I don’t know what methods you use, but no one should know about him, otherwise, I know what I can do.” Upon telling him that, disappeared.
It rooted Ramos to the spot. While staring confusedly in a certain direction, he murmured to himself.
“Is he HIM?”
