[Lamassu of Ancient Fires selected]

[Would you like to evolve?]

[Yes] [No]

Yes…

Instead of passing out like last time, I held onto my consciousness barely which I soon regret.

My body heats up rapidly as I feel myself being cooked from the inside out. [Ichimei] and [Amaterasu] activate by themselves, as [Ichimei] proceeds to cover the left side of my body and the right side of my body is covered in [Amaterasu].

The tattoos that littered my body expanded onto my wings. As they completely covered them, they started to shrink until they completely disappeared. The web of tattoos that covered my back made room for 2 new tattoos.

One tattoo was a white wing that was connected to my left side of my body while the other tattoo is a black wing, connecting to the right side of my body. The surrounding tattoos then all connected to themselves to the wings forming a new type of web, where these new tattoos became the center.

The heat became pure pain making me pass out. I woke up seconds later only to experience the same pain again… and again… and again. This was worse than the time I first evolved, at that time it felt like each molecule in my body was getting torn apart and rebuilt again, but this pain is like every atom in my body is getting slowly poked with a needle and then the remaining piece is slowly torn apart.

If I could withstand this type of pain, I would be immune to any type of torture in the future.

My hair grew slightly longer as the lightning bolts in my hair fused with my hair strands turning them a light yellow. I also felt my talons shrink and be replaced with feet. My body grew in very specific places that increased my womanly charm.

Crawling forward, I slipped in between me being unconscious and barely conscious. I crawled past the warriors that were protecting me, as they panicked not being able to push the bears back far enough to get to me. Even though I was crawling right into the horde, no bear dared to approach me, only maneuvering around me, preying on my army.

Suddenly A feeling of power swelled up within me that I wasn't able to contain. My body released an aura so dense and powerful, that it was filled to the brim with bloodlust. Anything around me passed out, might it be a bear or one of my warriors.

The bears felt my overwhelming pressure causing them to back up and shrink down. The warriors in my army felt a cold sweat run down their back, as they saw the dense aura filled with bloodlust and killing intent. Some of the weaker warriors weren't able to withstand it as they had to take a knee.

My bloodlust soon lashed out at anything around me. It ate the corpses of the bears and my warriors. If a bear or warrior were close enough, it would swallow them whole as well.

It was like when the chief used [Demonic Berserker], it had a mind of its own, only seeking to eat anything near it. This one probably didn't start eating at my flesh because there was plenty of meat around me.

Soon my bloodlust turned into 2 eyes and a mouth that grinned widely in satisfaction. Every bear around me turned around and tried to flee towards the forest. My bloodlust gave control of my body back to me as I soon felt my HP, MP, and SP rise. It didn't just refill to the amount I had before, it rocketed way past my previous stats.

The aura that surrounded my body seeped back into me as I felt the rest of my status rise. Multiple notifications appeared in front of me which I only had one thing on my mind… to kill something.

When the aura seeped back into my body, I felt the bloodlust fill my veins, but I was still conscious. I was able to make the decision of only going after the bears and not attack my soldiers.

Reaching down into the ground, I used [Forbidden Magic: Medusa]. The ground around me crumbled as I created a scythe similar to the one from before, the blade was just slightly longer.

I injected [Amaterasu] into it, making it burst into flames. The blade of the scythe turned pitch black, as the cracks in the handle filled with black flames.

SWOOSH

Swinging the scythe once, with all my power put behind it, I cut every bear insight in half. The trees weren't safe as well, having them being chopped in half landing with a giant thud. The pitch-black flames devoured both sides of the tree and did not spread to the grass.

There was no blade of black flames that traveled out of my blade. The thing that cut the bears and trees in half was just the wind pressure from my one swing. The on-looking soldiers from my army awed in amazement at how I eliminated the enemy with just one swing.

Even though I still had my demonic pressure, they still looked up to me.

Regaining my entire consciousness, I checked the notifications that flooded my vision.

...

Oh yeah, I forgot I will get a lion tail. I thought that it would just be like my wings when I was a siren, a part of my body.

Using [Forbidden Magic: Medusa] I crumble the scythe in my hand after deactivating [Ancient Fire Magic: Amaterasu]. Turning back towards my army, I see that their expressions are that of respect.

"WE WON!" Shouts a soldier from the front lines.

Following him were cries of joy as the depressing and bloody war had finally ended. I also thought of building walls around my kingdom in case this happens again.

This was not that hard since I accidentally built my kingdom as a natural fortress. The hill or small mountain my castle is in actually makes for a great wall that covers part of my kingdom.

If someone tried to attack from that side they would either just fall off, but if they tried to rappel then we will have more than enough time to counter-attack them… well I don't know if rappels exist in this world. If you're strong enough you can just jump down the mountain…

"Yo, that performance was pretty cool. You even tried to eat your wife," I hear, that is of a woman's voice in the distance.

"Kumo!"

Right in front of me was a bloody upped Kumo but when I reached out to the multiple bloodstains she didn't even flinch.

"Oh this isn't my blood, nobody was able to touch me. If I weren't defending the kingdom I could've easily wiped them out on my own," She says but slowly slumps down in exhaustion.

"Are you sure?"

"Shut up…" Kumo says before falling asleep.

I toss her over my back, giving her a piggyback ride. Normally this wouldn't have been possible because of my wings, but now that they turned into tattoos, I can easily carry anything on my back. Especially with my insane new status.

"I wonder why the jump between some evolutions is so big…? I mutter to myself while the entire army kneels towards me.

"I guess I'll find the answer later… anyway shall we go back?" I ask the army…

"ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!" Shouts the beaten warriors.
