"Kirin, ...... grant thee the blessing of power!

　As he chanted, the six awakened evolutionary materials around the behemoth began to glow all at once, and a light covered the behemoth.
　The light changed to seven different colors, and when the light subsided, all the ...... awakened evolution materials disappeared, leaving only the behemoth.
　The awakening evolution was a success.

"What do you think, Behemoth?

"...... this ...... is .......

　I'm sure you've heard of it, but Behemoth just stands there with his eyes rolled up in his head.

...... I never thought I'd see the day when this would happen to me. It's like I've turned into someone else!

　After a while, the behemoth jumped around, saying happily.

"Do you feel like your strength has increased?

"I don't think it's an increase, this is... It's not like I'm at the top of the biological hierarchy. It's as if you're in a position to ridicule the hierarchy itself!

　...... What an unfamiliar metaphor.
　You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few of them.
　Then, from his ...... antennae, he shot a powerful beam of light toward the sky.
　A few seconds later, what looked like a charred dragon corpse fell from the sky.

As you can see, the Inferno Dragon has been obliterated by a single positron shot!　How wonderful!

　...... is that an inferno dragon?
　It's also a great way to make sure you don't end up in a situation where you can't get out of it.
　The Behemoth ...... can shoot positrons from its antennae?
　I'm not sure if that's original or not.

Behemoth, you can shoot a positron cannon?

It's not possible. Until now, it could only send lightning bolts at best. I knew the concept of positrons as the theory of ......, so I thought I could shoot it if I wanted to, and somehow I succeeded.

　I was just a genius.
　He was just a genius. He was able to pull off some of the world's most advanced magic on a trial run.

But ......, why did you defeat the inferno dragon?　You didn't seem too interested in fighting earlier. ......

I've been observing that dragon for a long time. I used to try to observe the dragon, but ...... he said I was in bad taste and fired a breath at me!　So I guess that ...... was payback.

"Oh, .......

　In the event that you have any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with us, please do not hesitate to contact us.
　If you think about it, I guess you could say it's a good balance .......
　Well, whatever the case may be, this strength is definitely what I was looking for.
　In my previous life, there was no such thing as a demon that could use a positron cannon just by evolving into a sentient being, and this definitely means that the algorithm's estimates were correct.
　But ...... is not the end of the story.
　There is more to sentient evolution.

By the way, ...... behemoth. By the way, Behemoth, there's actually one more step in the Awakening evolution. Since you're here, why don't you try that one as well?

　The other step is, of course, the awakening evolution by Artemis.
　Since I brought the Demon Core with me the other day, I'm sure she'll be happy to accept my request to evolve another one.
　Thinking about this, I suggested to Behemoth.

"What about ......?

　The behemoth froze for a moment.

Then the behemoth froze for a moment. "Oh, ......, you're kidding, right?

　After a while, the ...... behemoth asked me with some trepidation.

This foul-mouthed enhancement is ...... one more step?

No, I'm serious.

　Apparently, Behemoth is not fully accepting the fact that there is another awakening evolution.

If you don't believe me, that's fine, but ...... let me ask you this. If there really is such a thing, would you want to try it?

"Well, yeah, if it really exists. ......

That's it.

　For the time being, I got his approval, so I decided to head for the moon.
　However, it would take a long time if I had to go back to the lake.
　First of all, I should ask around here for a place where I can use as a base to stick the ruyi-stick.

"Are there any lakes around here that are free of ...... life?

"Why are you asking me that?

"Because for the second stage of sentient evolution, we need to go to the moon. In order to do that, you need to extend this telescopic stick called the Ruyi Stick. ...... In order to do that, you need to fix the end of this stick to the ground. We'll freeze the lake and use it as a base.

　Then the behemoth paused and replied, " Why go to all that trouble?

'...... Why are you going to such trouble?　If you want to fix a stick to the ground, why don't you just dig a hole?
