The Greatest Sinner

Evan was concentrated and slowly controlled the whole process. The "Void Liquid" came into motion. It unhurriedly left the confines of the "Warp" and began to transform into the first end of the star. Step by step, drop by drop, Evan was getting closer to moving to the next stage.

His energy increased with each second, and at the same time, the "Splash" occurred. A tremendous amount of energy emanated from Evan. There was so much of it that it became visible. It was like gray waves with a slight purple hue.

This energy slowly filled the entire cave, and some of it even made its way outside through the dense layer of the vines. Evan didn't notice these changes. He was focused on creating the first end.

Reykar emerged from Evan's "Nirvana." He was drawn to this strange energy, and he began to absorb it, and after a few minutes from so much energy, his body began to change. He got a little bigger, his claws turned purple, and his beak became incredibly sharp.

The change also affected the symbols on his neck. At one moment, they disappeared, and then two symbols appeared on his wings. Strange transformations were happening to the vines and the whole cave. Just as Draven had said, this "Splash" was far more powerful than any previous ones.

The lianas suddenly increased sharply in size, and the stone began to turn into crystal. A few minutes later, Evan was already in the crystal cave, which was hidden by the huge vines.

But Evan wasn't paying attention to it. He had practically finished transforming the "Void Liquid" into the first end. His and Reykar's aura grew stronger by the second, and they were both getting closer to going to the next level.

Without Evan, Reykar wouldn't have been able to progress so quickly, all thanks to the mana and energy that came from Evan.

Normally, during such a powerful "Splash," the monsters of the same rank as the magicians tried to avoid the source of that energy. But, Evan's situation was radically different.

It was unknown why, but the dangerous monsters in other parts of the "Forest of Aquamarine Crystals" headed towards the cave where Evan was. The energy emanating from him attracted them, and now Evan was in great danger. If he didn't make it to the "One-Pointed Star" stage in time, he would most likely be torn apart. A multitude of monsters of rank one and rank zero were rushing towards him, trying to get to that energy as quickly as possible.

As for Evan, he was smiling happily. He had almost done it, he needed only a few more minutes before he finally reached the "One-Pointed Star."

Suddenly the cave Evan was in shook. Unfortunately, the monsters had got here before Evan finished. The young man didn't even sense their presence. He watched intently as the last drops turned into the "One-Pointed Star."

With each blow of the monsters, huge pieces of rock broke away from the rock, and most of the vines had already been torn apart. But, by then, everything had been over.

The last drop of the "Void Liquid" was transformed into the first end, and Evan's crimson "Warp" glowed brightly. The orb grew slightly in size, as did its internal storages of mana and "Void Liquid."  The "Warp" now looked more like a star, albeit in a very strange shape.

The end created from "Void Liquid" has become crimson, and the concentration of mana inside "Warp" has increased significantly. Evan will now be able to cast first rank spells and use powerful artifacts and "Catalysts."

When a magician moves to the next stage, each of his parameters from physical strength to magic, becomes much higher. Evan's body became stronger and his spells - more deadly.

Whoosh.

The next moment his "Warp" spun, and mana flowed in massive streams toward Evan. The rate of mana accumulation also increased significantly, as his "Warp" was now capable of absorbing many times more mana and the first end increased the speed of rotation.

Crack.

The paw of one monster had already nearly destroyed part of the rock. One or two more blows and its deadly claws would reach Evan. At that moment, the strange energy emanating from the young man was all the monsters wanted.

When Evan finally reached the "One-Pointed Star," he felt an extraordinary lightness and how the power overwhelmed him. It seemed to him that he was now the strongest being in the whole world. Then, the last and most powerful release of strange energy came out.

Gray waves spread out all over the rock and instantly reshaped it. In just a few seconds, the massive rock was transformed into a giant crystal. And one of the monsters trying to reach Evan suddenly evolved.

Its fangs became sharper and its fur thicker. Its tail burst into bright flame, as did its sharp claws. The monster was now like a hellhound. But someone else had evolved besides him.

The moment Evan reached the "One-Pointed Star," Reykar became a monster of the first rank. All thanks to the enormous amount of mana and strange energy Evan had emitted. Moreover, Reykar evolved again, as evidenced by his slightly changed appearance and the two large symbols on his wings.

When the monster punched a hole in the already crystal rock and was about to attack Evan, Reykar immediately attacked it. Not a few seconds later, the purple beam reached the monster and killed it instantly. After Reykar had advanced to the next rank, his skill increased significantly, but he gained another new ability as he had evolved once more.

Reykar flew into the sky through the hole the monster had made and looked fiercely at the multitude of monsters that came here because of Evan's energy. The raven spread his wings, and the two symbols glowed brightly. The next moment he flapped his wings, and dozens of razor-sharp feathers rained down on the monsters. They were so sharp that they could easily cut through a thick layer of steel, and that was the second ability Reykar had gained.

The deadly feathers killed several monsters of the zero rank in just a few seconds and severely wounded monsters of the first rank. Reykar wanted to continue the attack, but an evolved monster of the first rank stood against him.

He opened his mouth wide, and the next moment his roar rumbled throughout the area. It was so loud and terrifying that all the birds flew away. The raven tried to resist the roar, but he was not strong enough. He flew aside, trying to hide from that terrible roar.

That's when Evan finally got out of "Nirvana." He opened his eyes and took a deep breath. Evan slowly got up and stretched himself.

"It's kind of noisy outside. Why did these monsters come here, and what happened to this rock? Eh... more questions every time... okay, first we have to deal with the uninvited guests." Evan muttered, and his ring glowed.

A scythe appeared in his hand, and the next moment he made two cuts on each hand. Evan returned the scythe into the ring and began drawing two demon sigils on the wall simultaneously.
