I See One Second Into The Future: Loner In The Apocalypse-Chapter 236 Why Is This Here?

Spurred on by his desire to become stronger, Kairos continued to eat the black orbs one after another rather greedily. Although his hunger was not sated by them, he could no longer even tell that he was hungry at this point.

The feeling of all the foreign black blood rampaging about in his body nearly made his mind feel numb. Though his body was rapidly transforming the blood into actual flesh and parts of his body.

However, even when he found himself forcing down his 25th black orb, he wasn't able to promote his Abyss form into the D-tier. Although he imagined that a large amount would be needed to do such a thing, he also felt like not much was changing.

After taking a short break to calm down, he just decided to continue on as he had been. There was a latent urge to throw up, though no matter how much he ate, it never became a real one.

Once he felt most of the effects settle down and shift in his body, he continued his black orb buffet.

Once he had reached the count of forty, he took another break, letting the blood settle down. Though he found it a bit strange since he still felt the blood coursing around in his body. Normally, it would be transformed into flesh almost instantly.

Still, he didn't care enough to ponder over it much before finishing off the rest.

To his dismay, there still wasn't any change, though the blood flowing around his body was circulating incredibly fast. Although it was a foreign feeling, it wasn't all that uncomfortable.

With a sigh, Kairos sat down.

"Damn. I thought I would be able to evolve further if I ate them all."

At this point, Sara tilted her head to the side with a curious expression.

"But to me, it seems like you're about to evolve?"

Kairos turned to her with a strange look. Though right when he opened his mouth for a rebuttal, he involuntarily began transforming into a wolf. His bones creaked as they shifted and expanded, while his body quickly began taking the entirety of the already large cough.

But it didn't end there.

A reflex akin to vomiting assaulted him as he stood up. From there, his body began mutating, trembling, and erratically increasing in size. All of his smooth fur suddenly shot upwards, growing longer and becoming messier.

Although he wasn't exactly a small wolf before, Kairos' body began expanding to rather ridiculous sizes, rivaling Nyoka's transformation, or the other ones he had seen before.

[Abyss Form (E+) -> Abyss Form (D-)]

He felt a jolt pass through his mind. A moment later, he realized it was because there were overflowing tangible electrical currents running through him. Although they were chaotically rampaging throughout his body, he still felt like he could control them instinctively.

Though perhaps more strange than that was a strange ability to feel another person's heart.

To be more accurate, he could sense Sara's heart, and how it was beating in her body. But despite the fact that the heart was an organ meant for pumping blood, Kairos could decipher feelings from them.

Right now, he could sense that Sara was feeling a bit of concern over his sudden transformation.

Though before he could think about it more, his body sprawled out due to its size, crashing on top of the surprisingly sturdy glass table and barely fitting in between the two couches.

Kairos heard excited barking in his mind, coming from the wolf in his mental space. Yet despite the fact it was only barking, he was able to decipher meaning from them as well. The wolf was helplessly excited, praising him for increasing their strength. It expressed its desire to show off its new power.

In the end, Kairos couldn't help but smile bitterly and began speaking to the wolf in his mind.

'Calm down. We will be able to use this power and probably will many times in the future, but for now, it would be better to calm down.'

The wolf let out a disappointed, but understanding whine.

Right after, Kairos' body quickly began returning to normal, leaving him sprawled on top of the glass table. A few arcs of electricity danced around before dissipating.

Sara clapped a few times with a smile on her face.

"Congratulations on your Avatar Development!"

Kairos got back onto the couch and looked at his own hand for a moment.

"So... that's what it's called. I can definitely feel a significant difference in my power now."

He took another look at Sara, specifically at her abdomen. He remembered feeling the beating of her heart previously along with her true thoughts, though all of that was gone now. It seemed to be only a power that was activated while merged with his avatar.

Sara let out a small sigh before putting on a smile once more.

"Well, now that you're done with all that, why don't we take a look at our other rewards?"

Kairos blinked a few times before looking around the room.

"Oh, right. The last break room had rewards in the walls or something like that. So these glowing tables must be where they give them instead."

Sara put one hand on the side of her face and laughed.

"I imagine so. Though I can't say for certain since I've never been here before."

After a short moment of silence, Kairos nodded.

"I guess we should see what we got."

With that, the two of them both went to a separate table. Like last time, Kairos reached his hand out, though nothing happened. Sara did the same, finding nothing. However, she was not discouraged and tried other things, such as reaching out both hands or holding out a fist.

Right when Kairos was going to raise a question, Sara let out a gasp, while the top of her crystal table opened up, splitting into two parts.

"Ah, just put both your hands on it and it will open up!"

Kairos followed as she said, placing his hands on top. Just like with Sara, they promptly split apart, moving his hands apart as it did so. In truth, he was anticipating a fairly decent reward. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥．𝐜𝐨𝗺

After all, it wasn't exactly an easy test, and the countless black orbs set up a precedent.

Yet while Kairos was already expecting something great, he couldn't help but let out a gasp when he saw what it was.

"What? How is this possible?..."

It was a red and glowing object that was shaped like a triangle in the form of a disk. There was also a triangular indent in the center. Several feelings were roused up within him, but before he got ahead of himself he inspected it after moving his glasses off his face within his flesh.

[Energy: 1000/1000]

It was a part of the strange prism he had that used evolution energy. Previously, he was able to create incredibly tough objects that automatically repaired themselves, such as the spear he was wielding right now.

With a tad bit of nervousness, he slowly reached out and grabbed it.

"Why is this here of all places?"

In truth, Kairos had fantasies of finding other parts of the prism randomly around the place. However, life wasn't so good that he would find them so easily. Especially not when The Church of Evolution appeared to have some sort of way to detect them, albeit not a terribly accurate one, else they would've sieged Kairos with far more than just a few members already.

He took out the prism from within his flesh so that he was holding one of them in each hand. Then, he decided to fit them together.

Upon combining together, it became a real janky-looking small wand.

Ignoring the thing's somewhat strange appearance, he tried to open up the status panel once more, though it was a tad bit strange.

[ID: 2/10]

[Energy: 1500/1500]

Instead of being considered one item as Kairos thought, they were instead different. However, a nice added boon appeared to be the increase in max energy. Kairos let out a small hum looking at it.

He wanted to test it out. Perhaps it was only an upgrade to its maximum energy, which was a welcome one. But if there were more features, it would be better to know now rather than later.

Kairos took out the newfound claws that he had gotten before attempting to coat the blade with the living stone. He took a deep breath, expecting it to be quite difficult, as fine creations using the prism generally weren't easy.

However, it was a surprisingly smooth process, allowing him to coat all of the blades fairly easily.

Not to mention, he started to feel his spear resonate somewhat with the prisms he was holding onto. After letting it come out of his body, he tried to channel the powers of the prism.

And he found the spear floating about under his influence. He could control it easily, though not so much that it was like he had grown a third limb. But with enough practice, he imagined that he would be able to get the hang of it.

A small smile formed on his face as countless new possibilities opened up before him.
