A few years ago, back on earth,
Sen was standing around his few nerd friends. At seventeen, boys their age were preparing to take college examination and chase after girls. But this group of teenagers already finished their preparation and were currently discussing their favorite game.
"Ha! Sen, I told you, you shouldn't have picked that stupid green race," a slightly chubby girl said while laughing.
"Hey! Sen is actually very good at playing that. Remember when his special ability got us through Naga's Dwelling?"
"True, but now we all got our classes evolved except for him since that race really doesn't have a class. You just play around with whatever fits…"
"Anyway…Sen are you going to change your race? You'll have to level up from scratch but at least you'll still have your equipment and items?"
Sen heard him and laughed out loud, "change? You guys are delusional, just sit back and watch as I beat all of you together later, you're in for a surprise! Haha"

"I can't believe you guys are leaving as well…we started the Last Realm together." Sen dejectedly looked at his three friends. Many of the LR population had already left for the VR games and now his friends are going as well.
"Yeah…but you should really try it. It's way better than computer games. Imagine actually living the adventure instead of watching it from a screen"
Sen Thought about it for a minute before replying, "Nah, forget it… I'm already close to the level cap, I'll just run around in LR besides, I don't really have that much time to play since finals are around the corner and I'm leaving for the internship right after that"
"if you really do that, you're going to be the first player of the Last Realm who reaches that level… haha, don't forget to tell us what's it's like up there…"

[You've reached level 300]
[Congratulations, you have unlocked the last requirement for the final evolution of your race]
[Do you want to see your bloodline and evolution path?]
Sen was excited as this was the moment he was waiting for ever since he started playing LR, so he hurriedly clicked {YES}
[Current race: Goblin]
[High bloodlines stored: red dragon-water python- wingless dragon-invisible dragon-dream fawn-nightmare phoenix-white cloud tiger-high elf-ice elf-moon elf-pale Orc-iron dwarf-red dwarf- golden sand griffin-spectral canine-winged liger- night howler-night drow-night crawler- golden goblin queen-double headed serpent-lightning entity-demonic butterfly- abyssal human noble-shape shifter-elemental bender-void multicore entity- giant basilisk – storm fairy – darkness sprite – white scale lamia – black scaled naga – steam flower queen – Mana human-desert warm demon]
[Do you want to merge your bloodlineS?]
"Yes!" he shouted while clicking! Those were the high-level bloodlines he gathered from all around the Last Realm over the years just for this single moment.
[Merging in process…]
[…]
[…]
The wait was killing Sen as the picture of his green tall intimidating avatar appeared rotating on the screen.
Finally, it was over.
[Merging complete]
Sen's avatar on the screen changed forms suddenly, what remained now was a pale tattooed man with foot long horizontal ears, wings that dragged on the floor, silver hair, bright narrow eyes that stood out in the darkness of the painted-black upper head, clawed blood-red arms and an eight pack abdominal muscles that weren't too big but visible nonetheless.
"This….this…this is awesome!!"
Extremely happy with the new race, Sen laughed alone in his apartment. Back then, when he picked the least playable race - the goblin, his friends teased him and made fun of him as the goblin was the weakest of all races. Not only do they not get a class, but also can be attacked inside cities and towns. The players had to find goblin quests in the wilderness and grow strong there.
Sen chose the goblin on a dare and was planning on changing the race after a few months when he unexpectedly stumbled upon an epic goblin quest, from which he got on the path of getting the goblin king inheritance. From then on, the discovered that goblins can evolve by eating other races and he had just gained the ability to devour them – the skill 'devour' exclusive only to goblins.
A few years later, he ate his way into finally evolving to a high goblin and was told that he would evolve one last time to a goblin king at level 300 if he stored enough bloodlines.
And today was finally that day!
[Name your new race]
Sen thought about it for a minute 'what would be a cool name for this race…something to suit the picture….' He pondered for a while before getting enlightened. Without hesitation, he entered the name.
[Race: Goblin King: Fanalis]
[Fanalis]: a race that emerged through the combination of various extraordinary bloodlines that appeared throughout the history of the Last Realm. Territorial, have a strong connection to all bloodlines it's made of. Fanalis have the best of all the bloodlines, cannot evolve further, but can grow much stronger. Most importantly, the thing that makes the Fanalis the deadliest creature of all the last realm is the fact that they can no longer grow stronger by devouring bodies, instead, they harvest souls, prohibiting them from entering the reincarnation cycle, forever disappearing from existence. Fanalis also gain power from the memories of their predecessors.
