Heather's gaze went from Evan to the magic power swirling around them, so much that even Legendries would sweat just by looking at it.

She then looked at the ring on her hand that was shining and pondered the words that Evan had spoken, about her Hero ancestry she wasn't aware of.

Taking a deep breath, she looked back up at Evan and asked her final question.

"Evan…did you know about this place beforehand?"

Heather felt it was farfetched, but thinking about it from the beginning; it was only when Evan cclose to her that her ring started reacting despite having been in that spot for over half an hour.

Then there was him knowing who the people in the statues were before they even started going through them, the crest on the floor in that Hall of Statues, and now this magic circle.

In fact; he was the one who proposed that they go through the Mountain Pass in the first place.

All of these pieces fit together in her mind, completing a puzzle.

"What do you think?"

Although Evan did not give her an affirmative answer, his question was pretty much a confirmation of her conjecture.

"From the get-go…this Magic Circle was your goal."

"True. It's just that a certain Princess also needed to be present for it to work."

Heather looked at the ring on her finger and nodded. This ring was what opened up the gate to this place, and after glancing around at the storm of magic power around them, she guessed it was what activated the magic circle as well.

The only reason the magic power was just silently swirling around was because she wasn't standing in the centre of the circle.

"Alright, Dear Princess Heather. Are you ready to beca High Human?"

Evan gestured to the spot at the centre of the Magic Circle as he asked, and Heather looked at him a bit warily.

"You can't possibly be scared ofharming you now of all times, right?"

"…"

"If I wanted to do that, I could have just easily cut your arm off and brought it here alone. That much would activate the magic circle…probably."

He shrugged at that last bit and seeing the way he was acting; Heather just sighed and grabbed her necklace before walking towards him.

"Oh, good. It'd actually be a bit troublesif you decided to back out now."

Evan heaved a relieved sigh as he spoke. He found Heather very likeable and didn't want to keep pulling the wool over her eyes, neither did he want to use force on her, hence why he told her about it in the first place.

Besides, the Princess was smart enough to figure out something was off even if he didn't make it obvious so he just decided to go ahead with telling her.

When Heather reached the centre of the magic circle, the light on the ring intensified and then the magic power within her body began violently shaking.

In her field of view, two notifications popped up.

|Analysing Racial Factors…|

|Successful. Beginning Blank factor infusion process. |

"Blank Factor?"

"Yeah. This magic circle was made for any race to use, however, there's no way to acquire the Racial Factors of every race that exists.

As such, it uses Blank factors created with the World Laws of Evolution, Morphogenesis and Genes.

These blank factors are infused inside your body and when they're inside, your body's original racial factors convert them from blanks to that of your race.

Next, it then proceeds to increase the purity of your racial factors and this process is usually quite messy…or so I hear so make sure you have a change of clothes present."

"You know, you could have toldthat last bit beforehand…"

Just as Heather spoke, the magic circle shone and the magic power storm around them swirled upwards and mixed with ambient law energies, before condensing into round blobs of energy.

The one above Heather was black just like her aura, while Evan's was golden.

The two blobs of power then formed a stream and shot straight into their chests, and immediately, they felt their whole bodies turn hot.

For Evan, it was a bit bearable as his body had evolved to be able to handle destruction essence, but for Heather, this was the first ther body was ever being infused with pure Law energy.

Her body and soul screamed out in pain as she was far from being at the required Existence Level to hold law energy within her body.

"Guh…"

The pain was so much that she fell on her knees and tears dripped from the corners of her eyes. What's more, there was a prickly feeling, like thousands of tiny needles were poking her bones all over.

Her blood seemed to boil and her energy core felt as if it wanted to burst.

Such was the sensation she experienced for the next five minutes.

Suddenly, the pain disappeared as if it was never there and she panted heavily while a notification appeared in her field of view.

|Beginning Conversion Process. |

The Magic circle shone again and released powerful mana that entered her body, along with the World Laws of Evolution and Genes.

Her breaths felt short and she nearly lost consciousness, but just before she did, the energies were suddenly expelled from her body.

It took her a good fifteen minutes to regain herself, groggily sitting up and looking down at her body.

"w...ahat?"

There was a sticky black substance pouring out of the pores on her skin and though It didn't have any particular smell, it felt uncomfortable.

Looking to the side, she saw that Evan was down on his knees as well, breathing heavily while beads of sweat dropped from his forehead.

He did have sblack substance on his skin, but it was very little and she would not have noticed it if he hadn't used his finger to wipe it off his face.

However, she could not pay attention to it anymore as when she looked at his forehead, she noticed a big difference.

"You…your head…"

"?"

The boy created a mirror with ice magic and looked at his face when he heard her speak, his eyes widening slightly as he noted the new additions to his head.

Two small, slender horns emerged from amidst his hair at the crown of his head.

"Well, I certainly wasn't expecting a makeover."

He tilted his head to the side and checked them out as he spoke. Their colour schwas the sas his hair, with the monochrblack and white colours.

The bottom halves of the horns were black, while the top halves were white, and they were about 10 cm long.

Evan then smacked his lips before voicing out how he felt about the horns.

"Noice."

Evan also noticed that the white highlights in his hair seemed to have increased a little, but it was still not that much overall.

Taking a deep breath, he exuded a stream of magic power from his mouth, instantly noticing the difference in the energy quality.

'And here I thought I could not increase it any further…'

|Evolution Complete. High Human Racial Factors Acquired. |

Evan raised a brow when he saw this, opening his status immediately and seeing that his race was still Draconic Human.

'But it said I acquired High Huma-Oh!'

He quickly figured out the difference, sighing softly as he sat down on the floor.

Evan's race consisted of two sides. The Dragon Side was acquired from the Heart of the 'High Dragon' Faldo, however, his Human side was just ordinary.

So, there was actually a bit of imbalance between the sides, as the Dragon side was stronger than the human one.

Now, that Imbalance had been dealt with as his Human side was now a 'High Breed', making it evenly matched with his Dragon Side.

His Dragon side also went through a small boost, but since there was not enough power left, it could not advance to the next stage.

'In this case, that's actually good since they'd have becimbalanced if it went from 'High Dragon' to 'Greater Dragon' or something…'

Turning to Heather, he saw the girl looking at her status with a blank gaze and he appraised her, confirming that she had also beca High Human as well.

Looking around, he noticed that the ambient magic power concentration had reduced to one-third of the original, and this made Evan frown.

'I planned to bring everyone here. The spirits, the Demons and Eliza…but seeing this…'

He got up to his feet and after confirming that the Law energy concentration was also reduced, he sighed in exasperation.

"Tsk…there's only enough left for one more person."

Considering this place had been left undiscovered for thousands of years, it was even a miracle that there was enough energy left behind for three people's evolutions.

'How do we operate this magic circle to make it gather energy?'

Evan looked around but there were no obvious control panels, so he decided to ask Heather.

"Can you test something for me?"

"Hmm? What?"

"I want to know if you can exert any form of control over the magic circle."

Heather nodded when she heard Evan's words, looking down at the ring on her finger and infusing it with magic power.

It shone with a white light like always, however, before she could do anything else, a notification appeared in her vision.

|Existence Already Evolved. Cannot Evolve Further. |

She relayed what she saw to Evan and he guessed that this was because of the fact that each person only had one shot at Evolution with this magic circle.

'Looks like that part is true even in reality…'

"Oh, I got a title called Ascendant."

Like the High Demon Siblings Evan was contracted to, Heather had gone up from her race's base form to the High Breed, so it was only natural she gained the stitle.

Evan congratulated her before thinking about which one of his companions he'd bring here to go through an evolution.

After pondering about it for exactly 5 seconds, he made his decision.

"It's gotta be Liz. No one else."

He shrugged before turning to Heather and informing her of his desire to return here with Eliza and asking her to cwith him as well.

The Princess looked at him in silence for a bit before sighing and saying yes.

"Good. Now let's wipe down and change our clothes before getting out of here."

"Um…"

"Is there a problem?"

Evan looked at Heather who seemed to have a light blush on her cheeks and she extended her hand to him.

"I think my legs gave out…mind pullingup?"
