The Greatest Sinner

During the breakthrough to the next stage, the mage suffers a powerful Splash. Most mages do the same as Evan and protect the outside world from themselves with formations and barriers. Otherwise, every mage's breakthrough would be accompanied by numerous destructions.

Evan had to be more careful than the others. His energy could not just destroy everything around him but turn it into the unknown. But, this time, he was ready for any change. Moreover, he would gather his energy and use it for experiments. Evan didn't know what that power was yet, but when he saw that Reykar had evolved, absorbing a lot of that energy, Evan understood how it could be used.

Whoooosh.

Evan concentrated, and his Warp spun with renewed force. This was an important moment in his life, and he wasn't going to make any mistakes. The five thousand drops began to transform into the second end slowly. At the same time, strange energy slowly began to emanate from Evan again.

More and more of it was coming out with each passing second, and Evan was getting closer to making the breakthrough. Nothing could stop him anymore. He knew exactly what he had to do.

Reykar tried like a madman to absorb every drop of energy, his cells were bubbling and showing that they were ready to move to the next stage.

After a couple of hours, Void Liquid turned into the second End, and Evan finally became a mage at the Two-Pointed Star stage. At the same moment, energy burst out of his body in huge streams.

It filled the room, and the flasks could no longer hold it. They were instantly full. The only one who could still absorb this energy was Reykar.

But he, too, had stopped doing so in time. After Evan made his breakthrough, Reykar just as gradually moved on to the next stage. He was now a monster of the second rank, but that was not the most important thing.

To Evan's surprise, Reykar began to change. Evan immediately realized what was happening.

"Reykar is evolving, but it's not an ordinary evolution. It's a special evolution!" Evan exclaimed.

He didn't expect such a rare event as a special evolution to happen to Reykar. This kind of evolution occurs in less than one in a thousand monsters. It was incredible.

Evan had seen a special evolution once before, but then his enemy, not his ally, had evolved.

Gradually Reykar grew taller, he became much larger than the average raven. His height was more than one meter. His feathers became thicker and sharper, but that was only a detail.

Evan's main focus was on Reykar's wings. The symbols on the wings glowed and slowly disappeared, and the wings began to grow in size. But suddenly, Evan saw two more wings begin to grow on Reykar's back.

Then the claws on Reykar's paws became longer and sharper, and every part of his body became a deadly weapon. With these claws, he could easily cut most second-ranked monsters into small pieces. And with its wings, it could create a real tornado.

However, this was not the end of evolution. Strange changes began to happen to his eye. Reykar's head began to change, and gradually, instead of one eye, he had three. This was a shock to Evan. He had not expected something like this to be possible.

Suddenly Reykar looked at Evan, and in the next moment, several messages sounded in his head.

[The level of trust between you and Reykar has increased significantly. Soul Level - 3. Gained Spell - "Raven's Gaze." "Awareness" spell - "One-Eyed Raven's Beam" increased to Stage 2. Spell - "One-Eyed Raven's Beam" became a second level spell. "Awareness" spell - "Death Feathers Fan," increased to the second level. Death Feathers Fan - became a second level spell].

The stronger Reykar became, the more advantages and various bonuses Evan received. He had already learned this simple truth. But, he hadn't expected to get so many boosts in one moment. He had just become a mage at the - Two-Pointed Star stage and had already gained two second level spells. What's more, the Awareness of those spells was already at the second stage. It was fantastic.

Evan was really excited, but something confused him.

"The flasks are completely full, Reykar has absorbed a large amount of energy and has even undergone a special evolution. He can no longer absorb it, but there is still plenty of energy. What happens next?" Mumbled Evan.

Reykar returned to Evan's Nirvana. But, the energy was floating in the air. It could not go anywhere because formations and barriers prevented it from doing so. The energy was still not strong enough to destroy formations of this level.

But, there was one thing in this room this energy could go to, and it wasn't Evan. Beside him lay his new weapon among the emptied mana crystals.

Whooosh.

Suddenly the gray energy swirled toward the Righteous Punisher. It completely engulfed the weapon and the mana crystals beside it.

Evan didn't know what was happening. He didn't think this energy would be able to change the weapon. What's more, all the energy that was left was headed for the Righteous Punisher. That meant that the changes would most likely be very global.

<Hmm, would this energy make my weapon stronger? Or maybe Righteous Punisher will have some kind of additional effect. That's really intriguing>. Evan thought as he watched the gray swirl of energy.

While he was waiting to see what changes would happen to Righteous Punisher, he suddenly heard a loud clang of chains. The crackling of the chains came from the dark space where the dark lion and the huge rat were.

Evan concentrated and entered that space. He saw chains ringing on the second Pillars, Evan knew immediately what that meant.

<Sounds like I should get busy unlocking the chains on the second Pillars in the near future. I wonder what's next for me? What spells will I get this time?"> Evan thought.

Lucifer's Shackles and Mammon's Gaze were unique and powerful spells. Evan expected the spells from the second Pillar to be even more powerful and interesting.

As Evan pondered, the strange energy around the Righteous Punisher slowly began to dissipate. When it completely dried up, Evan was shocked. All the mana crystals were gone, and the Righteous Punisher was transformed.. Moreover, the weapon had increased its rarity to 5-star.
