[ Y / N ]
Reign stared at the notification before widening his eyes a bit as he could feel a great amount of mana being drawn toward Raigon who was sitting on the wall. Even though Reign never saw how the evolution process was done, he could easily interpret that Raigon was going through his evolution right now.
Bzzzz
Reign exploded with lightning as he created some distance from Raigon before accepting his own evolution. He didn't want to fall behind Raigon when it came to power, not to mention that there was no need for him to hide anything, the commotion that evolution caused made it almost impossible for him to evolve without anyone noticing.
Reign sat down on the other end of the wall as a similar scene started appearing. An incredible amount of mana was drawn to Reign from the surrounding area. Since there were 2 evolutions happening right now the entire area was in turmoil. Mana in a radius of 2km was gushing toward the two in order to replenish their reserves and let them evolve.
Both Reign and Raigon were currently sitting with their eyes closed as they were both experiencing something very different from what they imagined. Raigon had heard from his father that the evolution was different for everybody, those with little talent would find it incredibly difficult to go through the first evolution and might even die if not careful while those that were blessed and had great talent would find it as easy as breathing.
For both of these men, however, it was different. They felt as if they were suddenly wrapped up by a warm blanket, it was incredibly comfortable and they wished to do nothing else but fall asleep.
Of course, neither one did so, they gave it their all in order to stay conscious in case something went wrong. Raigon had the tips and guidance of his father and uncle together with the writings of all the first evolution combatants of the kingdom that came before, there were even some that were second evolution combatants. He knew very well that an evolution could turn dangerous at any moment and staying awake was without a doubt the best course of action.
Reign on the other hand was in even better hands, with the soul of an ex-Transcendent staying in his consciousness, he was able to learn much more and Aethion would tell him if anything went wrong.
"Just be calm and collected boy, I went through all evolutions and never had a problem, with your talent this should go as smooth as possible so no worries."
Reign nodded to Aethion in his consciousness as he tried to feel the flow of mana that was coursing through his body right now. Every part of his body was filled with mana and he felt incredibly powerful right now, there was not an inch of his body that was not being nourished by mana.
What he couldn't see of course was the small, but important changes that were happening, his cells were being nourished by mana and were currently undergoing a subtle but important change. Each cell became a bit larger before condensing and going back to its previous size, the difference however was that each was filled with more vitality compared to before. The same went for Reign's muscles and organs, all of them experienced the same things and became stronger without him doing anything.
His stats as well started growing, but that of course was not something he was currently able to see. Eldar had previously told him that those that went through the first evolution had no weakness when put against those that were still below it, soon he would find out exactly what he meant by that.
The incredible power coursing through Reign was also showing effects on the outside world. The area around him was filled with a powerful wind of mana that didn't allow anything to come close to him, it was also slowly increasing in size and power as Lieara and the others commanded everybody to get down from the wall and get away from Reign and Raigon.
A spending golden crown suddenly appeared above Raigon who was sitting on the wall, the crown was about 4 meters long and 3 meters high. A spending golden hue covered Raigon and the surrounding area as his power grew larger and larger.
For Reign, however, it was very different. Clouds appeared in the sky above the fortification as thunder rumbled and lightning fell down on the ground. The lightning however was only hitting Reign and the area around him, causing no damage to Reign or the others. Slowly however two black and white lines started appearing from Reign's back as they gradually increased in size.
In mere minutes the two lines became two large wings which made everyone gulp in fear and awe. The black wing would make it incredibly hard for those staring at it to divert their sight while the white wing brought comfort to everyone, but looking at it was impossible as the intense light it shone with was blinding.
More than half an hour passed and the two were still in the same position as before. The crown above Raigon was now 10 meters long and 8 meters high as the part of the wall he was sitting on had turned golden. Reign, however, was different, more and more lightning appeared from the sky and it even lingered in the air as it hit him, the two wings were now over 8 meters long and anything they touched was disintegrated. Even the wall of the gorge that was near him was unable to withstand the power of the wings as a small part of it that got in contact with the wings simply disappeared.
Luckily the wall was fine as the wings were above it and didn't touch it, the intense lightning however was seemingly imbued to the wall as some parts of it flickered with lightning from time to time. After 1 more hour, the spectacle started coming to an end, Reign's 15-meter-long wings stopped growing further and the power they released stayed the same. Slowly the wings wrapped around Reign whose evolution was coming to an end.
The golden crown that appeared above Raigon however had shrunk and floated down to Raigon's head. His whole body was covered in a thick layer of gold mana that made it impossible for anyone to see him. The two men were suddenly completely covered and nothing could be felt from them anymore, this continued for about 20 minutes.
This was of course the final stage of the evolution where the whole body was getting brought to a higher level. The internal organs and cells had finished evolving and now it was time for the skin to be toughened as well. Their old skin peeled off as new one regenerated quickly, more durable compared to before. The hair of Raigon and Reign also fell off before the new one started growing immediately after.
Crack!
A crack could suddenly be heard from the golden cocoon that covered Raigon, more and more cracks appeared from it before it exploded into pieces. Raigon appeared from the cocoon, completely naked.
A towel was quickly launched at Raigon who was inspecting his new body, completely unaware that thousands of people were looking at him. As the towel hit him on the face he looked at it confusedly before glancing down and finding out that he was naked. He quickly put the towel around his waist before staring at the black and white cocoon on the other side of the wall.
He was confused at first but quickly realized that it was probably Reign who had also gone through an evolution. He had done it before him and was not aware of his surroundings so he didn't know what was happening during his evolution. He stared at the wall of the gorge that was blacked by the intense lightning while many cuts and holes could also be seen thanks to the wings that sprouted from Reign's back.
Suddenly the cocoon moved, to be more exact the two wings started shrinking and disappeared on Reign's back as his naked body appeared before all. The same thing happened with him as it did with Raigon, all of his clothes and equipment were put back in the inventory while he underwent the evolution, in Raigon's case it went to his spatial ring.
Lieara was ready and threw a towel at Reign the second the wings parted and disappeared. It hit him on the side of his head and he quickly put it around his waist as he saw Raigon who also had a towel wrapped around him.
The two men had successfully gone through the first evolution.
