"Damn," Kingsley muttered, staring at the incredible item in his hands.

He had only wanted something to evolve the goblin into a higher race capable of speech, but this... this was on a whole different level. If he used the crystal on the goblin, he was certain it would transform into something remarkable.

"This means I don't have to kill it after getting the information I need," Kingsley thought, reasoning that whatever the goblin evolved into would not only be powerful but also improve his chances of survival in this strange world.

With a grin, he shoved the crystal into the paralyzed goblin's mouth, loosening his hold just enough for the goblin to swallow.

The moment he heard it gulp the crystal down, he froze it in place once again. The goblin was still alive, its internal organs functioning, so evolution would soon begin.

As expected, a few minutes later, the process started. Kingsley could feel the goblin's mind descending into chaos.

Its skin and bones twisted and shifted as though they had a life of their own, making it look like a creature straight out of a horror movie.

"This is definitely going to take a while," Kingsley sighed. He conjured a chair, sat down, and began to wait.

---

Time passed, and Kingsley was now lying on the chair, fighting off drowsiness. Nearly four hours had gone by, and the transformation was still not complete. Despite his fatigue, he remained vigilant, keeping watch in case any other intruders appeared.

---

Evolution complete. Please bestow a name upon your subordinate.

---

"Thank God! It's finally done!" Kingsley exclaimed, his voice a mix of relief and joy. He was beyond tired of waiting.

"Alright, I'll call you... Viktor. Sounds like a good name for a warlord or something."

---

The naming ritual is complete.

---

As the system message appeared, a brilliant burst of light enveloped the newly evolved goblin. Moments later, the light faded, and a profound calm settled over everything—the goblin's thoughts, its physical presence, even the air around them.

Kingsley leaned back, a satisfied smile on his face. His gamble had paid off spectacularly.
