Chapter 899: More Evolutions

"Then I'm leaving them on your care." I said. Woo, Fang, and Eleanora swiftly nodded.
"Leave it to us, we'll take good care of them." Eleanora smiled. "They're already used to me at least."
"Big sis Eleanora, can you carry me piggyback?" Anna asked.
"Sure thing dear! Come in~" Eleanora easily allowed her to be carried on her back. It was incredible. She had a soft spot for my siblings.
"I-I am not that good at dealing with kids, master. Is this alright?" Fang was a bit confused about my choices.
"Yeah, just follow Eleanora's instructions." I told him. "Your Wolf Summons are especially useful for helping them get real battle experience. So don't hesitate to summon a few so they can use them as opponents."
"Oooh! I see!" Fang nodded. "Then leave it to me!"
"Hmph, well, I can't say the same as this mutt. I do have some experience with annoying brats…" Woo sighed, now much larger than before, although he still had the same face as before, and a grumpy personality. "Just so you know, I am not a nice teacher, I am quite a rough old man. That's how I taught you and Eleanora how to survive."
"I know, Woo. I'll leave them to you." I was confident on my former master. "I'll be back on a couple of hours then."
After leaving my siblings to some of my Vampire Spirits, I made my way back home, where Erika and Elizabeth were waiting for me to get ready. They were conversing with my mother and Cattalina. I saw my grandmother reading a book about beasts and monsters in her couch, and father was tending the crops with his spirit's help.
"Oh, you're finally back. Did things go well with your siblings?" My mother asked, slightly worried.
"Yeah, don't worry about them. They're Rank 2 now." I smiled. "They should be relatively as strong as D Rank Monsters in terms of raw power, perhaps. As long as they train their abilities."
"A-Amazing, to think you would train them so much!" My mother gasped. "And all of that in just a couple of days?!"
"Well, that Elios Garden nobody has checked is brimming with monsters, almost like a dungeon." I explained. "And with the Experience Points multiplying bracelets, it was a breeze to help them level up."
"Yeah!" Erika said. "Honestly, I wish we had them back then, would have made the progress much faster…"
"Well, I guess you're not wrong…" Elizabeth sighed. "Though, it still makes me uncomfortable that those bracelets were made using a byproduct from a Saintess that died long ago."
"Oh yeah, that…" I said. "It seems the tomb of a Saintess exudes a certain aura. The blessings she possessed crystalize into a material. Through that crystalized blessing, it was possible to make bracelets that increase earned EXP. A very complicated process."
"I-I never thought I would earn that today, it is certainly something…" My mother gasped. "W-Well, weren't you three going somewhere?"
"Right, to crafting. Let's go. I'll be making a few things for you two." I smiled, as Erika and Elizabeth swiftly followed me outside back to Erika's house, which had become something of a workshop for the two of us.
On the way, I decided to feed the E Rank Spirit Orbs to my three Unique Familiars, after seeing how strong Paprika and Emerald have become, I also wanted to see mine grow just as strong. And they were quite unique on their own too.
They happily ate the Spirit Orbs we had hunted. I had barely enough of the ones gotten from kills they helped at. The moment they ate thirty each, they evolved once more. Their entire bodies glowing and transforming.

Fausto was the one that surprised me the most, growing up to almost four meters, resembling a giant, hulking mass of bones. It was like a humanoid giant with many different bones added into his body. The more bones I feed him, the stronger he became.
Armor of Bones allowed him to gain a powerful reinforced armor using his own bones or additional ones, and Bone Wings allowed him to fly with wings made of many smaller bones, something he wasn't able to do before.

Ezekiel's shape changed, now resembling a less zombie-like zombie, with pale flesh and crimson eyes, long silvery-white hair, and wearing black robes all around the rest of his body. Covering his face and head with a mask and a hoodie. He had become a Ghoul, a stronger, evolved Zombie.
The Ghoulish Cry skill could startle foes and paralyze them for a couple of seconds, enough for his Bloody Assassination to deal critical damage against startled or paralyzed foes.

Lastly, Dominus became an even larger axe, now sporting a black and red metal, and demonic inscriptions, as I had feed him with demon weapons. He can conjure demonic flames. He'll be good to utilize my demonic abilities because he can channel them really well. Searing Inferno is an explosive slashing strike, and Armor Breaker can help pierce through tough armor and defenses.
With all three evolved, I let them rest inside of my shadows, as we entered the workshop and started working on it. The first thing I decided to make was Elizabeth's hammer, to improve her fighting capabilities.
