Born in apocalypse Chapter 60: Asteri

[You have reached the maximum level of your species...]

"Uh... huhh! What species..." Dhruv shudders as he realizes that he’s about to evolve his entire species, not just his class.

After walking for a minute back and forth, he managed to calm down and accept the fact that his life was about to take a drastic turn.

After wondering how this could have happened, he quickly connected the dots and realized that this must have been a result of his fusion with the monster core.

But knowing didn’t reduce the worry one bit, and with a worried look, he looked at the rest of the notification...

[You have reached the maximum level of your species.]

[Do you want to evolve...]

But before the ssage could complete and show him the evolution options he could choose from, another type of notification filled his vision..

[Error! Error! Error...]

Nurous error ssages began to pop up in front of him. After a second, the only thing he could see was a wall of red screen with the word error in front of him.

"What is happening.." Dhruv shouted.

With each new error ssage, his blood pressure reached a new height.

Along with the rise of his blood pressure, he also began to deeply regret his decision to fuse with the monster core.

"I shouldn’t have fused with the core. Not only didn’t I get any power up! All I’m getting is pain and now even my evolution got so error in it..."

Dhruv was almost on the verge of crying from all the nervousness. But like so god send savior, a new notification rose from within the cluster of red ssages.

It ca in a green box and says...

[You have been stripped from your previous species human.]

[Searching for a species which suits you most.]

[Task has been failed!]

[You do not belong to any species within the cosmos...]

"Why are these depressing ssages coming in green boxes?" Dhruv was about to shout more, but suddenly closed his mouth when he read the next part of this combined ssage.

[...Congratulation! You have created a new species within.]

[As the Progenitor of the species, choose a na...]

"Huh! What the fuck? What is happening, cosmos? The only thing I wanted was so power so I could protect those who are dear to . What is all this complicated shit?"

"How co I just created a new species when the only mber I know of is ..."

"This shit is just tooo complicated.."

Dhruv wanted none of this and wanted to just get out of this realm or complete his evolution.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t find any way to escape from this situation. And whenever he tried to access his evolution option, the sa thing would just keep repeating itself.

Fed up with this bullshit, he opened the nu where he could enter the na of his species and started typing the very first thing that ca to his mind..

He began by typing the letter "A" first, then his finger slipped to the second letter in the second row.

For the third word, he selected the fifth letter from the first row. Then, in that sa row, he also picked the fourth letter, which was in the third spot.

The fifth letter was the one right after the fourth. And finally, for the last word, he clicked on the eighth letter of the first row.

Once all the letters had been combined, he gazed at the word and felt satisfied with his choice, even when it was just a na he ca up with on the spot. The na he had chosen was...

"ASTERI!! Ahhhh! This has a nice ring to it," Dhruv exclaid with a satisfied expression as he confird his selection.

The mont he confird his choice, a new notification appeared in front of him...

[Your species is now ASTERI.]

[You have gained the title and exclusive ability: PROGENITOR.]

[These are the abilities of your species.

tamorphosis

None

None

None... ]

Before he could open and check the description of the title and ability he had just acquired with this new species, another notification appeared in front of him, informing him that he could continue with the evolution.

Closing the ability screen, he once again accessed his evolution option...

[Do you want to continue your evolution]

[Yes/No]

With a sense of joy, he clicked on the "YES" button.

As soon as the "YES" button was pressed, the available evolution options appeared in front of him...

[You have reached the maximum level of your species

These are the options available to you.

Master Asteri talist (Rare)

Master Asteri spearman (Rare)

Master Asteri magician (Rare)

Master Asteri Warrior (Rare)

Asteri Progenitor (Unique) ]

"Hoooho!!, Four rare and one unique rank evolution..." With an enthusiastic expression, he eagerly clicked on the first option to read its description.

[Master talist: Through the evolution of Master Asteri talist, you will attain an exceptional mastery over tal magic, to the point where your all your focus will be on tal. ’S’. Your progress in the realm of tal magic will grow exponentially. With this evolution, your affinity with tal will be increse by one rank, provided it is currently below the rank

Your Vein would change from being made out of flesh to being made out of [tal mana vein]. The tal mana vein will allow the smooth flow of tal mana. But rember, with this vein planted in your body, the flow of different elents of mana would be extrely difficult.

The skills , , , , and will be provided with a bonus of 30 in both Strength and Magical power.]

"Such, a long description,"

Dhruv was confused at first, but the more he carefully read the description, the more he was surprised—surprised by the fact of how much advantage this evolution is going to provide if he only going to be using tal magic..

The increase in affinity was wasted on him, as he already had an S rank affinity in tal magic. But the thing he was most surprised by was the new organ he got: [tal mana vein].

"...And talking about the tal mana vein, I sure had transford into a monster. I guess you have to be careful about what you wish for..."

Dhruv was pretty surprised by the fact that he had transford into a monster, but it wasn’t at the level where he would get depressed about this fact. On the contrary, he was quite chill about this fact, and why wouldn’t he?

After all, his main goal was to get stronger, and now that he is a monster

, there are far more ways to achieve that compared to when he was human.

"This is good, but let’s continue..."
