[14th Everdusk 2103], CGA branch, Dyna Crest country.
After killing the wolf, did I take a breath of relief and fall down on the ground just before the dead body, and looked at the body to wait until the thing I was waiting for.
{You've killed 3~Lv.7 Forest wolves, Lv.10 Alpha wolf, you've gained 360 EXP.} [600/400]
{You've levelled up from Lv.7 --> 8} [200/450]
{You've gained 10 unallocated stats point.}
[You've gained 43 Evo enchant point. T.P: 446 (403+43)]
[Talent has detected 3~Lv.7 forest wolves, 1~Lv.10 Alpha wolf (mini boss). What do you wish to do: Plunder, Dismantle, Store.]
I choose the plunder as usual as the process again repeated and mysterious energy come out from my body and hovering about the body of mini boss.
[No talent, abilities, few degraded bloodline part (partially suitable) detected. Stats and Skill identified.]
[You've gained +4 STR, +3 AGL, +3 VIT, +2 INT, +3 END, +3 STA, skill
[Do you wish to assimilate the bloodline in your body: Yes/No]
"No system, just reject it, as that bloodline might not grant me the power I desire. Release it; I don't want to waste time explaining to someone who didn't comment on anything after what I said." I said to the screen as the bloodline was ejected from my body. A small droplet of blood floated out and fell onto the ground, getting absorbed by the dirt. {A/N: And guys it's also on you that Evan doesn't want to elaborate any more of his feelings or things he had on his mind.}
Suddenly a notification which I didn't expect came knocking my door which was what I wanted right now.
[Talent has detected the body of the Alpha wolf to be suitable for the grade evolution of items.]
[Please procced if you wish to upgrade the items.]
"Okay look like my work in third stage will be much easier now." I said as I firstly decided to allocate my given points and then will procced to upgrade my armor and sword.
I called out my system screen to use the unassigned points, I got in the level up.

The stats assignment may look clumsy, like a gamer trying to balance all his stat points in a game, but it was necessary. The path I was following did not require specialization in a single attribute like strength, agility, or intelligence. Instead, it required a balanced approach, which I realized after being hit by the alpha. The attack broke my defense, much like a big guy kicking a small guy. I decided that my stats should be balanced to make me a more versatile and powerful character.
With my class, I can dominate everyone if I play my cards right, even against an SSS rank class prodigy.
Some might find me crazy, but the path I am on will lead to destruction, not by others, but by me, as it is a path no one else can walk.
"Okay, now that the stats are in place, let me upgrade my blade and armor before moving forward," I said as I pulled out the talent screen to select my sword for enchantment and evolution.
[Talent has detected the item
[Please choose the aspect you wish to enhance:
1. [Sharpness and Attack Power]: N/A
2. [Durability of the Sword]: N/A
3. [Grade of the Weapon]: 25 Evo-enchant point + Additional things.
4. [Add another effect.]: N/A]
"I choose the option 3rd and tell me how you wish to take the material from its corpse." I asked as maybe I have to put items on the sword or take out them separately to finish the evolution.
[Talent suggests host to put the sword onto the corpse to start the process.]
I just did as what it said but before it could start, I also take out my armor to enhance it
"Hey, could you also do the chainmail for me." I said as again the scanning begin to check the item.
[Detected item, <Basic Chain Mail Chestplate (Enchanted)>, as the item selected to be enchant/evolve.]
[Please choose the aspect you wish to enhance:
1. [Sturdiness and Defense]: N/A
2. [Durability of the Chestplate]: N/A
3. [Grade of the armor]: 40 Evo-enchant point + Additional materials.
4. [Add another effect.]: 30 Evo-enchant Points + desired effect.]
"Okay so I choose the grade of the armor to be evolve and use the material of that wolf body." I said as I also put down the chainmail onto the body.
[To evolve the grade of item,
"Huh, what do you mean, you can't upgrade its grade before I use the other one to enchant? Wait now I understand. You wanted to cheat me by using the points I earned to put some effect on my armor to make it worthless later on, and I would become sad to find my hard-earned points wasted. But listen, I am not an easy guy to fool like you, so just evolve it." I said, but what I got in return was absolute silence from it, as if it didn't even take my words seriously right now.
"Argh... can't you just give in and evolve them both right now?" I said, but it didn't do anything at all, and after that I had to do what it wanted.
"Okay, so you won't let me upgrade. Then it's simple, I will just put some random stuff on it and do it then. Then you will be happy, right?" I shouted, as there was no danger to be scared of now.
But after getting no reply, I sat on the ground and started doing something while focusing on the ground, but nothing happened.
As time went by and my face and back were drenched in sweat from doing something, I started to feel the changes. After a few more minutes, I succeeded in what I needed, as in front of me on the ground, a small pebble-sized area of earth was rising from the ground as if it had grown up from it.
Yes, the thing I was doing right now was using my ability,
I was content as I walked near the corpse of Alpha, where my blade and chainmail armor lay. I used the ability again and, after a few seconds, a small pebble-like piece of dirt rose from the earth. With great caution, I picked it up and placed it with the armor, infusing it with as much mana as I could release. Although my mana was not great, something was better than nothing. I began process before the mana could mix with the surroundings.
"Hurry talent, enchant and evolve the remaining aspects of both items," I said as the screen appeared, allowing me to feel at ease and carefree.
[Talent has detected all the necessary things prepared for the process to begin. The required points are being deducted from the storage.]
[ 110 (95 + 15) EEP {extra for effect support}, T.P: 336 EEP]
"Hey, its day light cheating to take extra points in name of support for effect which I didn't need." I said as what I did with dirt pebble was channeling the earth element energy into it and use the energy as the effect to increase the defense of it by some minor and didn't think that talent will be able to get the effect even from a little of it.
[Process is being completed wait for a few moments.]
It said as the energy covering the items and corpse was too heavy to look inside and then only start to fade away as the new looks of the items were in front of me as the data got in front of which cause me to get shocked as my eyes come out of my sockets approx. completely.
