Chrysalis

Chapter 174

I have to say I’m quite excited to finally be able to evolve again. I know I should wait and pile on the Biomass but I simply can’t contain my excitement.

So I’m weak! Sue me!

Everyone has to have a weakness and perhaps this is mine. Rather than shovelling my face full of monsters’ sticky insides, as delightful as that sounds, I would rather be taking a brief nap and then waking up a whole new being.

It involves the consumption of less guts, for one thing.

I can’t help but get excited for the possible options that may be present to me when I evolve. The mind ant species has been good to me, dramatically increasing my strength and propelling me further along the path of magic. As great as it’s been, I feel like I need one more push in order to achieve a proper mastery of magic. If I have an option that will further enhance my mind I’ll be hard pressed to turn it down.

Before any of that though, I have to form the special core.

LET’S DO THIS!
