With Ashton's evolution, came a plethora of benefits. The most important one among them, however, was the availability of a new subclass. Neither he nor Astaroth was aware of what this new subclass could be, but considering how much his stats had already increased, Astaroth was pretty sure it was going to be a broken subclass.
Also, after carefully thinking about it, Astaroth had come to the only possible explanation regarding how Ashton's stats increased by roughly around 60%. His stats had increased by 20% just as he had expected, but it was increased by 20% for every set of genes Ashton had, meaning an overall increase of 60%.
"Hm, I do have some free stat points to use. Better dump them all to intelligence so that the limit of summons would increase."
[A wise choice. Considering every point you invest in intelligence would increase by 2-3 points thanks to the grim reaper's set.]
