the troubles of a hydra
The three are dead now
The ruby fish rests for now
As she awakes finally
rubyawakens
the hydra commits suicide
now the code has won
status unconfirmed tonight
the demons roam my PC
YouTube is the demon
the death by hunger
the saddest way to go out,
i need a doughnut
<end of poem>
<hr>
Time passes after the death of Lucas, but for this no one cares as floating in the water is an entranced goblin-fish looking at her own status screen with the skill shop open next to it.
(Ruby):-wow I was so huntthirstydidn''trealize,I left my stats untouched when i could be super powerful.
the status screen that she hasn''t seen since her rebirth tells her that she been a very bad girl.

(Ruby):-wow that''s a lot of skill and some of them can use stat points to buy them-
as this was as best a time as any she bought things she though would be useful like the ''Evolving existence'' since the triple the exp gain plus makingher eyes moarpowerful would be super good, also on her list of things she bought was ''natural poison'',''enhancedsenses'', ''clear mind'' for just in case and ''basic magic in water and wind''. and since ruby had 4 skill points left she just put them into ''bodystrengthening''. from this ruby looks at her stats again to see if anything had changed and to her surprise both her strength and endurance had increased by 2 points each. after seing this ruby goes back to the skill list and buys all the languages using stat points because why not.
once for the stats ruby doesn''t take anything into account and presses the green plus,but she tries to have a an equal value for each one used till she sees if she does it right every stat could be a increment of 5 and in Ruby''s past life she suffered fromOCD (obsessive-compulsive-disorder)so shenaturaldid this to her stats with herintelligenceand agility to 20 while her endurance andstrengthto 15, as she pressed the last stat point down a message appears.

now ruby internally smiles as she goes to the evolution screen.

Alphard </td></tr></tbody></table>You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
from this ruby was both excited from the fact she was gonna get strongeryet she also had the feeling of curiosity of many questions; what are these monsters like ?, is Alphard watching me at every step? ( is he you?), will evolving change a part of me that make me ruby?.
after this Ruby finds the answer to the first question, she can just use red-eye sight on the evolution screen on the monsters name, she uses it on the 6 monster species making ascreen that has the infomation on itto appear in-front of her.
[tr]species namespecies descriptionmonster grade[tr]Spike eelthe spike eel is a reclusive Anguillfomes(i did not make that up btw) that hides in seaweed waiting for its prey to approach before exploding in size to roughly 60cm in diameter poisoning any victim that its many needles hit.grade: E[tr]Depthstalkerthe Depthstalker is a monster that is similarto a jellyfishin shape,with its prime method of attacking being the capability to use dark and water magic.grade: D[tr]Aerobic-seahorseAn Aerobic-seahorse is a large seahorse that has the capability of using water and wind magic, in water nations these monsters can be tamed and turned into mounts.grade: D[tr]Aqua-constrictorthe Aqua constrictor is a serpent type monster that excels in ambush tactics in a groupbut is weak when either in one on one combat or out of water.grade: D[tr]SkeelA skeel is a monster that looks like ahuman skull that''sback is open releasing aserpent tail. The skull and hide are as hard as steel, giving it its name. its main method of attacking is the use of dark and water magic.grade: C[tr]Husklerthe Huskler is a crustacean that inhabits the skeletonof the departed by slowly melding the bones into a shell to protect its self. it useswater, earth and fire magic.grade: D
from this Ruby just stares intensely since this is a part that dictates her future. she thinks and thinks till she comes to a conclusion.
from the evolution list ruby choices the Depthstalker first of all.
as she does this her fish-like body starts to glow before her body starts to feel weightlessas she floats there she looks around and realize she now can see360 degrees around herself, this moment excites Ruby even more as 4 messages appear.

though your evolutioninto an Depthstalker the Sin ''sloth'' has been adopted asto a species trait.
from the appearance of the sin ''sloth'' the title ''demon of snobbery'' has evolved into ''deaconof Snobbery''.
the title of snobbery makes it so when its your title you gain 3 more title slots and when versing a opponent your lowest stat become equal to your ownsecond higheststat or your opponents highest stat (which ever one is the higher).

(Unknown/Alphard):"wow you got to apostle status a lot quicker than I expected, for your achievement i believe i will tell you 3things about the world you are in since our last conversation was short.
in this world I Alphard am known as a pagan god who is called the devil by the main religious power known as the Holy saint church where they pray go a goddesscalled Lucia.
the apostle''s of meare all reincarnated people like you who died in one world and were reborn in this world by me once they gain 6 sins they gain the title with them becoming enemy of the world at this moment there are 65 other apostle''s but non of them interest me like you do sincein only 48 hours of being born you have killed 7 times and evolved twice to others this is impossible to believe but you did it, so for this feat i will tell you what the next sin will unlock.
the next sin that you will unlock is envy, its one of the lesser known butworst ones since most sin derives from envy. when a reincarnated person gains the 7th sin they gain a demonic pathway under my name depending on the last sin they gainthe number of people to accomplish this is 6 coincidentally there is one for every other sin but envy, so for this i looked though your world and found out that a monster known as the ''leviathan'' was known as the arch-demon of envy in your world main religion."
(Ruby):-Aww the leviathan that sounds really cool, can you give it to me now please-as she finishes saying this another message appears in-front of her.

you have gained the sin ''envy''
with this skill the title apostle of Alphardhas evolvedto ''sinof envy:TheLeviathan'',
when this is your title, only other sin title holders can see this title,you gain an extra title slot that has the title ''Apostle of Alphard'' automatically equipped at all times as well as your exp growth rate till you become a grade: A monster will become 5 times the normal rate.

(Alphard):"done, now go forth, Ruby go have fun in this world, if you want any help finding the other sins just ask me"
and so the leviathan was born . . .
