Chrysalis
Chapter 323
With the main bulk of the planning done, it was time to get my group rested and ready to head back out into the fray. Not long after the council broke up, Tiny stumbled into our chamber only to flop onto the floor and returned to sleep, absorbing the mana of the Dungeon to restore his exhausted core.
Speaking of cores, it was time to help Crinis evolve! Only her second evolution since she'd been reforged as my loyal pet and unlike the last evolution, this one would be less of my design. I hadn't had the skill to affect her evolutions to such a deep extent at the time, so there is an opportunity for Crinis to take a more direct hand in her own evolution here, without my own guiding influence.
Naturally this meant that the Dungeon would weave the general shape of her choices and there was a chance that some of them would be hot garbage. Fortunately, if that were to happen then Crinis could ask me to dive into her core and sort out some options for her.
[Are you ready for this Crinis?]
The little ball wiggled indecisively on the floor in front of me, small tentacles extending this way and that until eventually her form solidified.
[I - I think so, Master] she told me.
[You're doing great. Remember, if the evolution options are terrible, let me know and we can work on developing something a little more concrete that suits what you want.]
The little blob-like ball nodded somehow and firmed up further as Crinis gained confidence.
[I know. I feel it'll go well] she declared.
I looked down at my loyal and ever diligent sphere of endless murder and torment. She'd come a long way in being able to try and take responsibility for making her own choices. It wasn't that long that she'd been paralysed by fear just thinking of spending her skill points, and now here she was, preparing to make her own decisions in her own evolution.
I was happy she'd shown such growth over the last few weeks. She'd been working hard to improve herself.
[Wait a second. You aren't trying so hard because you think that's what I want, is it?]
[….]
