Chapter 374 Chapter 374 Tyrant Rank Catalysts

Slowly but surely, Evelyn channeled her magical energy into the magic core she had obtained from the Ultak Empire Princess.

It took time as the core filled with another's magical energy rejected Evelyn's, but she soon had dyed the core with her own magical energy and made it her own.

Immediately she got the instinctive feeling that this item was one that could be used for her evolution to the next rank.

This brought a smile to Evelyn's face, though it did not last for long.

Just like last time the Aethersphere started to react to the presence of an item Evelyn could use as a catalyst.

Remembering what happened previously, Evelyn unloaded hundreds of magical crystals from her store items before tossing any magic tools on her person away.

As expected, the Aethersphere began greedily drawing in the magical energy in the surroundings in order to gain the power necessary to forcefully insert information directly into Evelyn's mind.

Yet, the process was clearly more subdued than before.

While the Aethersphere did start to break down the magic crystals Evelyn had laid out, the process was not terribly quickly.

Evelyn was also not racked with a searing pain in her head as she was bombarded with information all at once.

The Aethersphere slowly analyzed Evelyn's condition and picked out the best catalysts for her based on whatever knowledge was stored within it.

'Huh? It is even asking for my consent to share the information.' Evelyn thought, bewildered by what was going on.

She did not receive any sort of verbal message from the divine item, but it had sent her a sort of feeling that she knew meant it was asking for her to agree to the knowledge transfer.

At first, she was utterly baffled by this. The divine item had never once shown any consideration for her in the past and nearly killed her on multiple occasions.

'Is this supposed to be how it functions normally?'

From what she could gather, the Aethersphere was now operating more like a functional device should be rather than how it had gone haywire in the past.

Evelyn could not help but chuckle at this development. After having to worry about the stupid thing blowing her up, it seemed to have finally fixed itself enough to work with some degree of reliability.

'Sure, go ahead and give me the information.' Evelyn thought.

The Aethersphere, connected to her body and soul as it was, got the message and sent over the data immediately.

Suddenly Evelyn was hit with a familiar sharp pain in her head, but it was not even close to as bad as last time. The Aethersphere was only sending her the information on the items she would need to evolve.

Once the process was done, Evelyn marveled at how much easier it was than the last time. Sure, there was still a bit of pain, but it was completely bearable. It was like the difference between a sprain and a shattered bone.

'Looks like I even already have another one of the items I need. I knew I wasn't wrong to take the risk to obtain this.' Evelyn thought, an ecstatic expression.

Retrieving her storage cuff, she brought out a glowing blue gem she had found at the center of the float stone deposit.

As soon as it was released, the blue gem that was shaped like an octahedron floated upwards and began spinning.

Evelyn watched as the gravity in the room became distorted and lighter objects began drifting into the air.

'So, it is called a graviton gem. It is still just as beautiful as the day I found it.' Evelyn thought as she stared at the gem in wonder.

After she had gotten her fill of watching the magic mineral's splendor, Evelyn flew up towards it and began filling it with her magical energy.

It was one of the five catalysts she would need to reach the tyrant rank, and including the magic core from an arcanist rank human and the evolution potion she had already made that could be used as a substitute for one of the items, she only needed to collect two more.

'The problem is, which two of the three should I look for?'

Of the three the only one Evelyn had any inkling about where she might find it was the heart of a grand fire elemental.

She knew that fire elementals could be found in a place called the inferno field, where a rift in dimensions allowed fire elementals to come into this world.

At one time Evelyn had planned to go to this location to obtain a hellfire rose which was something she needed for her evolution from a fiend beast to an awakened beast. Unfortunately, due to the injuries she sustained during the battle against the empress dryad, she instead used the credits she had saved up to hire someone to retrieve the item for her.

'Well, I was fairly interested before, and I have no clue where I might find one of the other two items. I might as well check out the inferno field and see if I can find a grand fire elemental.'

Of course, while Evelyn was a bit gung-ho about heading out, she knew better than to rush off without any preparations.

Melisandre had hammered into her about how dangerous the inferno field was. Thanks in large part to the elementals that attacked anything other than their own kind on sight.

Before when she would just be going to find a hellfire rose, there was no guarantee she would encounter one of these dangerous entities. But now her goal was to find one and kill it in order to take its heart a vastly different prospect.

'Melisandre told me that she nearly died when she went there at the same rank I am now during her exploration of the inferno field. I'm probably stronger than she was, but I better be careful. I need to make some alchemical items that will be effective against creatures that are made out of fire.'
