Reincarnated as a World

Ch.13 Worldwide Evolution

When Eridel had woken up again, he was shocked! Not because of the fact that he was able to maintain his soul after death. He had already cheated death once, what’s one more? But when he was able to see his planet and even feel the connection between body and soul, he knew he had somehow survived.

Despite this joyous revelation, he didn’t dare to waste time thinking. He could see that his World was still being ravaged. Although the amount of deaths weren’t that high (because the life forms weren’t the focus of the Laws of Destruction just yet), it still caused him to be uncontrollably livid!

Subconsciously, Eridel had already developed a PTSD of being left alone. This was a result of his 2000 year long afterlife.

And it was because of this trauma that it was so easy for him to subconsciously accept Ciera as his child.

Humans were social creatures. Without social interaction, a human’s mind will eventually deteriorate.

Even a child brought up in the wild will have animals to fill their undetectable desire for social interaction. Pretending that the predatory animals were villains and the docile herbivores were his ‘people’.

If there was ever a child that was born in a place surrounded by countless edible plant life, but not other life forms no matter where you looked, the child would die from solitude, even if the child was able to eat all it could eat.

It was that terrifying.

You could probably think of some people that could go into solitude for many years with no problem. But you have to understand that they subconsciously knew, if they stepped out of the room, there would be people to be seen.

But for someone like Eridel, who didn’t know how many thousands or millions of years he would have to go without being able to interact with another person… How could he stay normal?

It was only because of Eridel’s continuous soul upgrades that he maintained sanity.

So when he saw the residents of his planet dying one by one, he was filled with a literal world-shaking anger.

He immediately locked onto every essence of Destruction and once more placed it beside his core.

The Laws of Destruction weren’t so easy to obtain like the Laws of Creation. Creation was everywhere and although it was just as hard to grasp, for a World like Eridel, as long as it was there, he could grasp it.

But Destruction Laws only came with HEAVY amounts of destruction. Would Eridel be so dumb as to lay waste to things in his planet just to obtain the resulting Laws? Nay!

Anyhow, he has those Laws now, there would be no need to be excessive.

‘I seem to have broken through? Excellent! But first…’

Eridel noticed the changes in his soul. It was roughly 120 years since the last upgrade so it was quite satisfying to experience it once more.

If other geniuses had heard that Eridel considered a soul upgrade at THIS level merely ‘satisfying’, they would almost spit enough blood to die. It was just too abnormal!

But Eridel didn’t know that and even if he did, he wouldn’t care. Would he be so shameless as to compete with residents? What a joke! What was more exhilarating was what was occurring within his core.

He could finally feel something, something had changed and on an instinctive level, he could tell that this was what he wanted, this is what he risked his life for.

When he began to prod that feeling, he felt the strange sensation of a nose on the verge of a sneeze. As he continued, the feeling became more prominent and uncomfortable. But all of a sudden-

Click!

He heard a peculiar click-type-of-sound that reverberated in his mind. 

Accompanying that weird sound was a flush of information containing… The secrets of magical energy!!!

BOOOOOM!

Like the eruption of a grand volcano, magical energy exploded out of his core in great amounts and spread out to invade his planet.

It’s behaviour was just like the Laws of Destruction, but it was a lot more tyrannical, not discriminating against the residents at all and invading them too.

But this result caused Eridel to mentally grin. As he watched, grand changes began to take place all over the World.

When the magical energy infiltrated all of the lands of his planet, he noticed that they were rapidly healing. Cracks and fissures closed, overflowing lava was eradicated, the raging seas were quelled and even the dyinging nature was restored, thrumming with vitality.

Some of the herbs around the planet even evolved into becoming magical herbs. A type of herb that was beneficial when eaten, but more useful when refined into a pill.

Surprisingly, there were actually some magical trees that appeared, stepping into the first stage of tree cultivation. Something that shouldn’t have taken up to 100 years was happening after 5 months…

More and more benefits like this were sprouting out like mushrooms after the rain all over the World.

And that was not all. All the life forms on the planet began to evolve!

For the beasts, as they were all primordial life forms, the first of their species. Their first evolution was dependent on their will, location, adaptations, affinities and more. Meaning, anything can happen.

Well, you wouldn’t see a mouse becoming a canine or a sheep becoming a feline, but within their own possibilities, anything was possible.

This would never happen to their descendents unless a mutation occurred. With each evolution a descendant has, they would take the same path as their ancestor. For example: [Snow Wolf] > [Ice Wolf] > [Glacial Wolf] > [Heavenly Blizzard Wolf].

There would be no deviation. Whether you surpassed your ancestor and became a [Star Swallowing Icicle Wolf] or not - would not change the fact that you would forever remain a one headed ice affinity wolf.

All sorts of strange evolutions started occurring in the beast species and not one of them were weak.

Eridel noted down the ones with the more outstanding evolutions. What amused him was that there was another special talent within the snake clan.

It was a snake with resplendent purple scales, cold purple eyes and ominous looking fangs that dripped with a terrifying purple coloured poison that actually caused the ground to dissolve. Oh and the snake also had 2 heads.

Eridel actually remembered this guy. 

Some time ago, when this little guy was domineeringly slithering through the forest. He encountered a strange plant that contained some kind of ‘essence'.

The plant was one that had 1 stem but 2 violet flowerheads, a rather average looking flower to be honest but even so, for some reason, the snake could feel a sense of danger from it.
