Diana's new race and my reward

The next morning, Diana woke up without any more nightmares. She looked at herself only to not really notice any changes. Her body felt the same, there weren't any significant changes to her appearance.

Because she didn't know what should have changed, she looked at her race, only to find something unexpected. Something that sent every system user a notification the moment she learned of this herself.

{System-wide anouncement: User: Diana Dreghy has unlocked a new lifeform, since she is unable to be classified under the three normal classifications, a new classification has arosen, Perfect Hybrid.}

This sent so many ripples through the entire world, nobody knew what the classification even meant, sure, scholars could speculate but they would never find a satisfying answer because they had no proof.

The inhabitants of Dreghy found out that their princess, thought dead after the coup, was still alive and that she had done something that as far as was known was never done before.

Two more factions now joined the 'hunt' for Diana, although these didn't actually want to harm her.

The scholars just wanted her for the new knowledge they would get, making them froth at the mouth even imagining it. The other faction that arose where those that wanted to get her back on the throne in Dreghy, something that wasn't happening anytime soon.

A lot of people also joined the let's kill her faction that Shing and his lackeys belonged to.

"Diana, I really want to know your race now." Everybody agreed with me on this.

"It says, Earth Spirit of the Humanoid Beasts (Spirit/Monster/Humanoid/Human ---> Perfect Hybrid."

"That explains it, although I don't understand how she got the spirit classification."

Nagi and Markus looked at me like I was stupid, Aella did a facepalm and Terry just chuckled.

"You're a spirit with the monster subclassification."

"Wait, I'm a spirit? Since when?"

Nagi's brows started twitching in annoyance, Terry started coughing like crazy, trying to hide his laughter, Aella seemed to just look at me like she wanted to just go away and Markus had actually walked away.

"You've always been a Spirit Monster, that's what golems always start out as. Did you never wonder why we talked about our mana reserves, something that wasn't even in your stat window, or why you never seemed to have any trouble with the basic magics, that's all because you're a spirit."

Terry was the only one I could trust on to explain things to me apparently.

"Ok, before people start punching me, tell us your skills Diana, the new ones of course."

I was really exited to hear what she got, especially since she was something new.

"I got this skill called Stone Flesh which apparently allows me to turn my flesh into, well, stone. Another I got was Beastly Fighting, apparently, it's an active skill without cooldown that just let's me fight like a monster would instead of a human or a humanoid.

Then I also got Spirit Magic Source, it makes me keep my magic reserve but allows me to just pull magic energy from the air. The last I got is called, Perfect Hybridization, I have no idea what that does, although it sounds like it'll allow me to fight with all my skills at once or something, meh, I'll see."

Her nonchalant attitude was a bit unexpected but I was like that too, it's a spirit thing to be nonchalant, something I would later learn.

I then switched my focus to something else, the reward I would get. Thinking deeply I didn't really know what I wanted, I already had protection, as in my entire body. I also had a weapon, although I couldn't access it, that was only for now and since I could punch really hard it didn't matter that much.

My magic was also pretty solid, but while thinking of magic something came to mind.

'System, can I still get information as my reward?'

{Yes, information can be granted.}

'Ok, then I would like any information I can get on souls.'

{Processing request ...

OH GODS, THE HEADACHE!!!!

I had completely underestimated the headache I would get, my mind was flooded with nearly 100 times the knowledge I had gotten from getting Spell Comprehension.

There was also an added part, the system was forcing my mind to perfectly comprehend the information, giving me more knowledge than someone would probably ever get about souls.

It turned out that because the knowledge was deemed worthless by every other living creature in this world because it was seen as impossible to actually do anything with souls, the system saw it as worthless too, giving my all the knowledge it had.

I knew hoa to progress my soul magic now, the only thing I would need to do was actually put my knowledge into practice.

The first thing I did was something I'd wanted to do ever since entering this world. Analysis.

Lucky for me, every soul was connected to something that had a lot of information on someone, and they all happily used it.

I first tried it out on myself, forcing the system to reveal the information it had on my to me, it was harder than expected, probably because I was forcing it.

The results were, interesting to say the least. For one, I could see a lot more than when I manually opened the window, now it showed me everything.

The thing that caught my attention first was a sub-system.
