Angel Monarch

Chapter 98: "How to Evolve?"



\'Well, after drinking monster blood for a weak this would taste like ambrosia.\'

The current class she was heading towards was related to evolution. Mostly how to evolve and what is the best monster to choose. It was really important especially after last night, when they talked about it. Of course non of the others thought it that important since she was heading to the class alone!

With an angry and tired expression she remembered how peacefully Bea and Vicky were still sleeping when she left. They will only have classes later so they could sleep in. \'Lucky bastards.\'

She arrived to the class room and went in. This class had more people than the last one, there was at least a dozen students waiting for the teacher. Walking in she remembered something else. Everyone turned towards her and they went white as sheets of paper.

\'I forgot about the whole, being famous and having a passive aura around me. This will definitely make my life a living hell!\'

Slowly she went down the steps and sat in the front row. Then she took out a tablet and an electronic pen she could write on it, most people only recorded the whole lecture with their Watches, but Sera liked to take her own notes.

All the conversations stopped when she arrived. On the back of her head she felt all the other students watching her. She was about to turn around and tell them to leave her alone, but the teacher arrived.

A beautiful woman who was still in her prime walked out of the back door, behind the stage, She had waist length black her which seemed to reflect the lights, her eyes were bright blue and she wore a knee length dress.

The students watched her every move, especially the sway of her hips. Sera looked around and saw that the students looked like they are in love with her, male or female it didn\'t matter. Sera on the other hand only felt some small amount of attraction.

\'So she is using her ability to prank the students or something? She must be at least an Ascended, so her power is definitely way stronger than what she is currently showing.\'

Sera watched her with a bored expression. After reading through her new description yesterday she realized something. Her armor gave her amazing physical defense, but also soul and mind defense. But those two had nothing to do with actually covering her whole body, so she was currently wearing her armor as a bracelet and it currently protected her from the teachers prank.

With a small smile she watched what the teacher is going to do next. She looked through the students and their smitten expressions, but her eyes soon landed on Sera and her small smile.

It didn\'t take a genius to know she wasn\'t under her control, with an ashamed face the teacher made the aura dissipate and the actual class begun.

"Good morning everyone! I am Siren as you all probably know, my little demonstration should show you how important proper Evolution is! All of you were under my control for me to do what I want. Well, almost everyone." Her eyes lingered on Sera, to make it clear who was the only one to stay free.

"In this class you will learn how to evolve, what is the best monster you should evolve with and we will look through the archives to actually pick out a monster that you could hunt down! Any questions?"

Sera raised her hand since she picked out something interesting from Siren\'s speech. "Yes, Angel Monarch." Nobody was surprised by the teacher knowing her name, at this point the whole of Castleburg knows who she and Bea are.

"Is there really an archive of monsters cataloged?"

"Yes, of course! How else could we know which monster to use for evolving. There is actually a Monster Scouting Department that has this as their job. They scout out monsters catalog everything there is to know about them, then mark where they can be found."

Sera was writing all of it down in her notes, when she looked up the teacher had a small proud smile on her red lips. Seems like it is rare for someone to take actual notes.

"Okay, now if there are no more questions lets begin the class." She looked around a bit before continuing.

"One of you answer me. What is the purpose of evolution?" Some students raised their hands, Siren pointed at a girl a couple years older than Sera.

"To get more powerful!" She said confidently, the teacher nodded and had a follow up question.

"But why? Why do you need to get more powerful? The regular humans can work without the need to evolve, why do you need to do so when they don\'t?" This time the student stayed silent with a contemplative look on her face. The teacher looked around to find anyone to know the answer, her eyes settled on only one person. "Angel Monarch, do you know the answer?"

With a small knowing smile she said, "But teacher, you already answered it." The other students looked confused, what did she mean by \'already answered it?\' But In a second she continued.

"We have to evolve so they can live peacefully. We are their guardians, we fight so they don\'t have to, we suffer so they don\'t have to, we kill so they don\'t have to. Regular humans can only work without the need to evolve, because we are there to protect them."

Siren had a wide smile on her face and she slowly clapped her hands.

"Excellent, you are 100% correct! We need to evolve, because there won\'t be anyone to do so other than us. Sadly some people forget this purpose of the Evolved! They think of themselves as celebrities or even worse, religious figureheads. Glad to know there still are people who aren\'t that full of themselves."

\'At least I\'m not the only one to think of them as idiots.\'

The teacher moved behind her desk and wrote on the blackboard with a chalk. It read, "How to Evolve?". She moved away so everyone could read it, then began.

"So we now know why there is the need for evolution. The monsters out there aren\'t only Tainted or Rotten, there a plenty of Corrupted and Horror. There is also the ones above those, but even I\'m not allowed to know their classes.

"But how to evolve? No don\'t raise your hands, probably all of you know it already. In case you don\'t it is fairly simple. You fully saturate your soul, find a monster, make the killing blow, then absorb its soul by touching its still warm corpse. Pretty straight forward.

"What really matters though is which monster to choose. You all probably believe that the higher class and tier the better, which is true but not fully. All of you already know what your abilities are, what you can control or manipulate. This is what will determine which monster to kill."

She clicked a button on her desk, suddenly the lights turned off and a projector came alive. It showed pictures of a bunch of different monsters. There was one similar to the Shadow Leopard Sera killed, another had demonic wings and humanlike body, another was a huge snake moving through water, there was also a lion that had bird like wings, and many more.

As Siren scrolled down more and more monsters showed, there hundreds or most likely thousands of them. So many to choose from, but only one or two held Sera\'s attention.

\'They even found angelic beings? That would be very convenient.\'

After a couple minutes of scrolling, she clicked another button and the lights came back on. The projector still showed the images, but they were quite dim.

"As you saw, we scouted thousands of monsters already. You have access to the archive through your Watch and you can go to hunt any of these monsters any time. I am not here to stop you or anything like that. Just giving you the ability to choose the one that is best suited for you.

"Now lets talk about specifics, today all of you will write down on a piece of paper everything there is to know about your abilities. Of course you decide how much you want me to know, but I can assure you that this is purely confidential. When I learn about your abilities we will have a private one on one class where we can decide the best monster for you to evolve with."

Everyone got out a paper and began writing. Sera thought for a while what to write, in the and she decided to write down everything except her Heritage and the race change. Soon after that the class ended.
