MMORPG : Ancient WORLD



After teleporting to the Malefis Domain, Alex, accompanied by his two guardians and Varon, went to Lady Elmara's lab.

Before coming to the lab, Alex had asked how long the evolution process would last and how painful it would be compared to the cleansing fruit.

The answer he received took some worry off his mind as after consuming the evolution fruit, he would enter a deep slumber and wouldn't feel a thing while time would range from just a few hours to a few days, depending on how much of the fruit energy his body can handle.

Alex was extremely anxious as he feared the failure but excited at the same time because he knew if his body could absorb 16% of the fruit energy, the same as the second Ruler, then the benefits would be enough to not regret anything while any more would be a jackpot.

"Domain Ruler, Good Luck," Varon said after Alex got comfortable on the stone bed.

After Taking a deep breath to calm his raging thoughts, Alex opened the Ruler profile and went to the dawn tree section before claiming the fruit, and in an instant, a mesmerizing fruit, if one could even call it, that manifested on his hand.

The Evolution Fruit was unlike anything he had ever seen as it radiated a bewitching aura, its skin shimmering with colors that seemed to shift and dance like an untamed fire that shifted its color and shape with every passing moment.

Alex felt like he was holding nothing as the fruit had no weight, apparent smell, or presence, a stark contrast to the cleansing fruit.

For the next few moments, Alex and everyone else in the room were captivated by the magical fruit, and instinctively, Lady Elmara tried to touch the ever-changing fruit, but her hand was stopped tens of inches away by an ethereal barrier.

"I forgot that only the domain Ruler can consume or even hold this anomaly," Lady Elmara said like talking to herself, with her eyes glued to the fruit.

"Domain Ruler, I am expecting to receive a lot of precious data from you, so make sure your body doesn't fail before at least consuming 50% of the fruit energy," Lady Elmara said after a few seconds of observing the fruit, making Alex chuckle as he knew she was trying to lighten his mood.

Alex closed his eyes to clear his mind, not thinking about the failure nor the possible reward but instead remembering the lowest moments of his previous life and comparing them to his current life, being grateful for what he had, and then, he opened his eyes with not a shred of anxiety.

Alex didn't delay and took the first bite, and the moment the fruit touched his lips, he felt an immediate surge of energy.

It was as if every cell in his body was awakening, rejuvenated by the eldritch power contained within. The fruit's flesh melted into a tantalizing liquid as it slid down his throat, leaving behind a trail of invigoration.

Alex savored every drop of the fruit and the power coursing through his veins and every other part of his body, and he felt his mana and blood boil simultaneously and sensed them ghosting through his body, feeding on the foreign energy.

Alex took the second bite, followed by the third and the last, savoring the rich flavor and soothing and unique experience, and in mere seconds, his whole body got covered in dark runes. 

As Alex lay down on the hard bed, the cuffs securing his limbs in place, he couldn't help but feel his consciousness slipping away as his vision blurred before it turned pitch dark as he slipped into a deep slumber.

The last thought that crossed his mind was one of hope, a silent wish for the results of this arduous journey to be worth the risks he had undertaken.

The workbench beneath Alex didn't light with its signature intricate, multicolored runes, nor did the cuffs come out to keep him in a place like  Lady Elmara didn't intend to record information on him.

It took mere moments before Alex was covered in dark runes that shimmered with energy while his surrounding space had turned a bit hazy, but the four individuals in the room stood silently, like expecting such a phenomenon.

After no more than three seconds, the space surrounding Alex turned gray, white, and black, a clear sign of space distortion, and a mere moment later, it returned to normal, but Alex was missing, having been teleported to somewhere unknown.

Varon, Elder Darrien, Lady Elmara, and Lady Margaret had no change in their expressions like this was supposed to happen, and after a few seconds of silence, Lady Elmara was the first to speak.

"Hey, Old fogies and Margaret, Let's bet on how much of the fruit's energy will that greenhorn benefit from?" Lady Elmara said, looking toward the others.

"What do you want to bet?" Varon questioned as he opened his eyes.

"I will pay with an unconditional favor, and from you, I want your help in something, while from Darrien, I want his research on perfect cloning, and from Marga, I want some of her research on genes," 

"As for how much of the fruit's energy he will absorb, it would be between 21 to 26 percent," Lady Elmara said with a bright smile, not even confirming if the others were willing to play along.

"Domain Ruler has the best talent I have seen, so I will say it would be between 30 to 40 percent," Lady Margaret said, showing some faith in Alex.

"You can have my help, but I am not making any predictions," Varon said with his calm and friendly smile.

"Your loss, and what about you Darrien?" Lady Elmara questioned, and, in turn, elder darrien took out a deteriorating one-handed axe covered in cracks with a good chunk of its body missing.

The moment the broken axe was taken out, the entire room instantly got cloaked in intense bloodlust and the rich presence of the law of death, making both Lady Margaret and Varon look at it with surprise.

"I want you to reforge it for me as my favor, and as for my prediction on the energy usage, it would be over 60%," Elder Darrien said as he threw the axe toward Lady Elmara before he turned to blood mist and vanished without a trace.

While Lady Elmara was trying to get herself some freebies, Alex, unaware of what was happening, was currently in a place known to only a few and was experiencing the benefits of the evolution fruit.
