"A throne huh..."
"Bloodreign? You know anything about this golden throne? What exactly is this?" Damon asked but the sword spirit was unusually silent. "Ahem, little red? Hello? Little red?"
Damon gave up after a while. In the meantime, the shadow clone gathered all of the mana cores from the various beasts in the dungeon. In total he had obtain 100 mana cores from a single run.
There were also other drops from the beasts which quickly filled up his spatial ring. All in all it was a great haul!
Just as he thought he was done, the shadow clone brought out a last item.
"Another evolution stone?" Damon’s eyes glinted. "Did you get it from the hidden boss Midnight Killer?"
The clone nodded, sharing a memory fragment of it digging the evolution stone. "No wonder, it was so strong. It looked like that beast was also partially evolved." Damon nodded. He placed the evolution stone in the spatial ring.
Maybe this was enough for another evolution but it was not advised to go through back to back evolutions without gaining a few levels in between. Damon decided to shelf it for the time being. At least until he got another one of the evolution stones.
Something told him he would need two of these for the next evolution. If not more.
Damon dismissed the shadow clone and prepared to log out. Now that everything was complete, he decided to focus on his real life problem. He had consumed a lot of beast blood, including elites and dungeon boss. This should keep him settled at least for the next few hours.
It was almost 11 in the night now and the game would still be open for another 7 hours, giving him plenty of time to figure some things out and return back to the game to carefully consider his options.
Damon made up his mind and proceeded to log out. Of course, there was the small matter of system wide announcements.
A last notification flashed in front of him after the dungeon completion.
[Ding! Do you wish to make your dungeon record public?]
[Publicizing this record will reveal your username systemwide. Rewards include: Reputation Points, and a bonus system gift.]
[Yes] [No]
Damon did not hesitate and selected yes. He decided to check the other rewards later on and logged out without delaying any further. He was way more concerned about how he was going to wake up. A man or a monster?
His senses felt sharper. He could hear the whisper of water in the pipes behind the wall. He could feel the shift in temperature when the coffee machine clicked off. And his breath? Slower. Deeper. As if his body no longer needed as much oxygen as before.
