SSS Awakening: Starting With Infinite Soul Copy
Chapter 274: The Glorious Evolution (V)
[Yes. This is your Demon Engine Bloodline’s first skill.]
’Brute Demon Metamorphosis.’
White completed in his thoughts.
He remembered clearly obtaining that skill after fighting Zion, the Pseudo 2nd Year Student back in Xtremecyber, and copying his Awakening Soul.
Then, he had inputted five Ability Upgrade Cards into it, bringing it to Level 6.
But with his evolution, the skill had not only advanced through Levels 7, 8, 9, and 10, it had even evolved, making it appear as his fourth Evolved Skill.
And from the description alone, the increase in power was obvious.
But White noticed something else.
There was another tab, holding a skill he had wanted for a very long time.
A skill Zion had once used to ’defeat’ him.
[NEWLY AWAKENED SOUL SKILLS]
[Awakening Soul Type: Demon Engine Bloodline]
[Skill Name: Rupture]
[Skill Level: 1]
[Description: Compresses energy into a chosen part of the body before releasing it in a single destructive eruption.]
[Current Effects]
[Energy Compression: Energy may be condensed and discharged through physical attacks.]
[Current Limitation]

[Please upgrade the skill to improve effects.]
________
’Finally...’
White mused beneath his breath.
He remembered it was because of this exact skill that he had chosen to copy Zion’s Awakening Soul in the first place.
Though right now it was weak, which was reasonable considering it was only at Level 1.
Looking lower, White could see:
[Ability Upgrade Cards Possessed: 47]
[How does Host wish to use Ability Upgrade Cards?]
The System asked, and there was a moment of silence before he gave his order.
"Input 9 Ability Upgrade Cards into the skill Rupture."
[Ability Upgrade Card Input Successful!]
[Rupture has now reached its maximum Level 10!]
[Skill Evolution will now begin.]
"Now, input 4 Ability Upgrade Cards into the skill Malphas Ascendant."
With that, Rupture would evolve into an Evolved Skill while Malphas Ascendant would reach its maximum Evolved Level.
[Ability Upgrade Card Input Successful!]

_________
"It’s complete."
His two copied Awakening Soul Bloodlines had both been raised to their maximum level of power.
And just beneath them, he could still see:
[Ability Upgrade Cards: 30]
[Awakening Soul Slots: 4]
He still possessed 30 ability upgrade cards and four empty slots.
But that wasn’t all.
There was now an entirely new category of skills.
[UnoUmbrawyr Racial Skills]
[Note: Host’s new body has been deemed to possess a plethora of skills that are currently impossible for the System to define.]
[Skills will be recorded here once Host activates them in the future.]
Most would wonder how one could activate skills that even the System itself could not recognize.
White, however, already knew exactly what his UnoUmbrawyr race was capable of.
They indeed possessed natural-born abilities that bordered on the absurd.
After all, he carried within his mind the complete memories of the only two UnoUmbrawyrs that had existed before him.
With both the System Interface Tab and the Skills and Abilities Tab checked, the final tab drew White’s attention.
It had existed since the very beginning of the System, yet every time he attempted to access it, he had only received notifications stating:
[Unavailable]
or
[Locked]
It was, of course, none other than the SHOP Tab.
And now, with him becoming an Umbrawyric King, the quest reward had finally unlocked it.
He moved toward the tab, and as expected, it instantly opened, allowing White to see a plethora of new categories that immediately shook him.
