Is this really a Game?!

[ Player has successfully tamed Lvl 34 Gold-touched Lion ]

Ding!

[ The player's ability is undergoing evolution, the ability will not be available until the evolution is finished. ]

"Umm guys, it seems I managed to evolve my ability." Beast scratches the back of his head as he looks at the others with a smile on his face.

"What?!" Everyone exclaims simultaneously as they look at Beast with wide-open mouths. It has been more than 2 months since the game has started and none of them has even come close to evolving their ability, even when they asked the system it simply told them that the evolution requirements would be shown to them after the ability level reaches the maximum.

"System, didn't you say we could only evolve an ability after it reaches the maximum level, what the hell?!" Shadow curses out, he was the one that asked the question previously as he had managed to unlock 1 condition for the ability evolution.

[ The players will only be able to check the conditions of the ability's evolution after reaching its maximum level, the ability can be evolved before that however, it is simply rare for something like that to happen. ]

[ Some players manage to fulfill all conditions before achieving the maximum level for their ability while others manage to do a feat high enough to evolve the ability on its own. ]

[ Furthermore, life and death battles can also result in the player evolving his ability thanks to the enormous stimulus from the battle which squeezes out their full potential. ]

"So as always, you decided to simply not tell us that information earlier right?" Shadow looks in front of him with an annoyed expression on his face.

[ The players never asked, therefore there was no need to trouble you with this information. ]

"One day I'm gonna beat you up."

[ I am a system player, that will be impossible. ]

"Enough Shadow, we need to get somewhere safe so that Beast can check out his ability after its evolution." Reign grabs Shadow by the shoulder as he drags him along with the others. They slowly make their way back to the forest next to the grassland and sit down to rest up.

Beast was looking at the status screen in front of him while his eyes glimmered.

[ Player has been successful in fulfilling the conditions of evolution. ]

[ Have 5 or more beasts tamed – Fulfilled ]

[ Have at least 3 variant species tamed – Fulfilled ]

[ Have at least 1 rare variant species tamed – Fulfilled ]

[ Tame at least 1 beast of a higher level – Fulfilled ]

[ Ability has evolved ]

[ Beast Tamer has successfully evolved to Beast Master ]

Rank A Beastmaster - can tame monsters 5 levels above you, bigger chance of making them evolve, the player can take some blood from his tamed beasts to increase his stats and can fuse with one monster to gain immense power for a short time.

Beast's eyes opened wide as he shared the status with the others. He could finally get more stats from his ability via taking his tamed beast's blood, not to mention the fact that he could now fuse with one of them, even though he didn't know exactly how powerful he would become after fusing with one, the boost shouldn't be bad.

Beast immediately summoned all of his beasts. He looked at the description of his ability and checked carefully how exactly to take the blood. The process was simple, he only needed to cut his palm until blood started leaking out, then do the same to the animal, only that he could choose any spot on the animal's body to cut.

He first got his two wind wolves to come forward, taking a dagger out of the inventory he cuts his palm as he flinches from the pain a bit. He pets his wolf before doing the same to it, the wolf merely glances at the small wound before looking curiously at Beast who puts his palm on the injury.

Suddenly Beast was able to feel a sucking sensation from his arm, he could feel the wolf's blood getting into his body, it was a weird sensation that allowed him to connect to the wolf a bit more.

[ The player has successfully gained part of the beast's power. ]

[ Strength + 2, Agility + 3 ]

Beast did the same with the other wind wolf, only to see that the stats he had gained this time were fewer compared to before.

[ Strength + 1, Agility + 2 ]

[ The player can only take blood three times from the same type of beast, each time he does so the stat increase will be lowered ]

He nods his head in understatement as he looks at his other four beasts before first calling over his eagle.

[ Agility + 4, Spirit + 3 ]

Compared to the wolves the eagle gave him more stats, that was probably because the eagle was also a variant species, but a higher grade of a variant species.

The antlered bear was next, the huge body of the bear and its thick fur made it difficult for Beast to cut with his dagger, Reign used his katana to cut the bear that looked at him with an annoyed expression.

"What, so it's alright for him to do it, but for me, you're gonna be like that Fluffy?" Reign looks at the bear with some grievance before putting his hands in the air in defeat as he sits down behind Beast.

[ Strength + 4, Endurance + 2, Vitality + 2 ]

The lion stepped in next, he licked Beast on the face as he looked warily at Reign who crouched right next to it. Reign slashes at its side as a small wound was created for Beast.

[ Strength + 3, Agility + 3, Willpower + 2 ]

It seems that both the bear and the lion were of the same rarity when it came to variant species, finally, it was Blackie's turn, the black wolf comes to Beast before lifting one of its legs. With one of his claws, he actually cuts his chest while looking at Beast and Reign with a grin.

"This guy got smarter huh?" Reign chuckles as he looked at Blackie who proudly stared at the other animals.

[ Strength + 3, Agility + 4 , Endurance + 2, Vitality + 1, Spirit + 1, Willpower + 1 ]

Beast blinked his eyes several times as he looked at the stats, Blackie gave him a lot more stats compared to the others, he knew that Blackie was special as it was still undergoing evolution and that he got the mark from a goddess earlier, but he still never thought it would be this much.

All in all, Beast managed to gain 43 points in total, that kind of a bonus was almost as large as Reign's so far. It was an incredible boost for Beast who was feeling much stronger right now.

"So Beast, wanna find some orcs and check out your fusion?" Shadow asks him with a glow in his eyes, it seemed that he was the one that was more excited than Beast to find out more about his new powers.

"Damn, even Brainy has a Rank A ability now, I have to evolve mine as soon as possible." Tank looks at Beast as he sits next to Laura who nods her head in agreement.

"We shouldn't fall behind the others." She was still the weakest of the group, it is to be expected however since Laura was just a normal high schooler before the game started. She never once had a fight, nor a reason to fight someone. Right now she was still useful to the group and luckily her progress has been great, her body still remembered how it fought when the demoness controlled it so picking up some basic self-defense skills was easy.

Her control over mana has speedily progressed as well, she no longer wasted so much when healing or attacking and she didn't need to focus as much.

Slowly they make their way into the forest, Beast had unsummoned all of his beasts except for Blackie who was walking right next to him. The black wolf was wagging his tail happily because it was the only one present with its master right now.

Soon they came across an orc party. There were in total 3 orcs and 4 hobgoblins in the party, they were slowly making their way through the forest as they looked around in alarm. It was evident that the party was experienced as they never let their guard down.

"So Beast, you want to try against these guys?" Shadow asks him as he looks at the enemies. Such numbers were honestly nothing to them right now, killing these orcs was a walk in the park, that is exactly why Beast choose them, he wished to check everything after fusing with Blackie. His speed, strength, endurance… he wished to know exactly how much stronger he will get.

Beast jumps in front of the orcs as they all point their weapons at him in alarm. Seeing that it was only 1 human the orcs looked confused before smiles could be seen on their faces, their smiles slowly vanished as they could see a huge wolf showing up behind the man who was now emitting a huge pressure on them.

"Fuse."
