Beast Evolution Forge

Chapter 27 Slot 2 Pt.1

Kana was slowly sneaking her way out of the city, using the night as a cover. Her senses were on high alert, scanning everything that crossed her vision. Jolly was still knocked out her shoulder drooling like an idiot.

'I wonder if Jay is alright....no, I am sure he is, he is a smart guy, he will find a way. As for me, i need something to escape from here-' Her eyes landed on something that made her smirk mischievously.

She cautiously approached the vehicle, noticing that the door was left unlocked. She looked up at the building beside the car and even though she was outside, she could smell it, a disgusting smell.

'argh, why do people do such things? its so nasty. I was going to feel bad stealing this car but now not so much.'

She threw Jolly on the other seat, her limp body slamming against the dashboard. Kana didn't even bat an eye, she simple sat on the worn seats and began looking for the keys but they were nowhere inside the car.

'guess i will use the old fashion way.'

She hot wired it and drove off, not showing any mercy to the gas pedal. The night air hit from the window but she did not react, her eyes stared in front but she looked out of it, as if thinking about something that is weighing on her. Her eyes glanced at Jolly, her limp body still leaning against the dashboard...she didn't bother helping her.

'I let my emotions go out of control....what was i thinking?...but hearing her talk so badly about him like that, i just couldn't stand it, not after everything he went through. I am sorry Jay, i hope you will move on from all this.'

The city was slowly disappearing from view, there was not turning back now, only going forward.

Back in the forest, Yenna lay on the ground, sweaty and out of breath while Wren looked perfectly fine, staring at her with a smug expression. Yenna took this as a challenge and jumped towards Wren, trying to catch her but all that met her was a tail to the face.

'dammit, was she always this strong? or is it because i lost my power...no, I can't tell, she is definitely growing stronger...... This is not working, at this rate, he might leave me behind.'

Wren seeing her sulking face wanted to be happy but there was something more important than that, this girl was someone that helped her master so there was a part of her that was happy she was around.

"prr prr prr prr...prr...prr..prr"

Yenna looked up, seeing Wren doing a pattern of poses and looking at her to try. "What are you doing, are you feeling itchy?"

No other information known]

'huh, that's all? why so little information.'

[Yes, no one has ever tamed a slime of any kind, they are seen as weak and worthless.]

He leaned back against the trees, not sure what to think.

'what about you, do you think the same way?'

[Although slimes have their uses, in the long run, they will prove useless.]

'hmm, interesting.....can you see that dark glowing energy?'

[what are you talking about master, there is no dark energy anywhere.]

He stopped talking to system and began thinking by himself, he was sure about what he was seeing.

'Is that mana? no, it looks denser for some reason....it looks similar to what i did when i lost control of myself. what could this mean, is the second phase to mana? And a slime considered weak has that very energy? something is not adding up.'

He jumped down, scaring the slimes but they didn't run away, they are species that is know to be friendly so they approached him, rubbing against his skin and at first he was smiling, squishing their soft bodies. But then he felt something entering his body, it was the same corrupted mana as the figure.

"shit!"

He jumped back up the tree and began meditating, thinking his mana was about to go on a rampage but that was not the case this time around. The mana entered his body like water flowing in a river.

"Huh, I am not hurting? this....it feels good, what is going on?" He touched his chest, feeling the mana gather around the core, steady and calm.

"Maybe i should-" He cut himself off, letting the mana enter his core and he was nervous but nothing happened. "Haha....guess the core is working fine...." the thought off him being called non human and played his mind. "whatever, let's try that one more time."

He leaped back down but before he could touch the ground, a massive snake grabbed him and threw him away into the trees.
