Chapter 38：Simulated over, attributes skyrocket

[And after killing a Slime that had reached the Lord level, you gained a shapeshifting ability called "Myriad Forms."

This ability allows you to transform into any other race, but it doesn't significantly increase your combat power.

Some forms might even weaken you.

Now, whenever you meet with elves or attend their banquets, you assume the form of an elf.]

[Surprisingly, your elf form is incredibly attractive.

One could even say that among the elven territory, there isn't a male elf who looks as good as you do after transforming.

You are very satisfied with your current appearance, and Nolan is constantly by your side.

However, you only treat her as a daughter and have no other thoughts.

Right now, your only focus is to gain more life essence and improve your strength.]

[In the 140th year, due to the prolonged use of the Fountain of Life, your level reached 81, just three levels below the level cap.

Everything seemed to be developing in a better direction.

However, an unexpected person appeared before you, Maril.

As you looked at the tall and alluring young man before you, your thoughts drifted back a hundred years.]

[Maril, upon seeing you, showed the same expression he did when he first saw you — that ferocious expression.

Although Maril had behaved obediently by your side, his nature had never changed.

His goal had always been to brutally kill you.]

[Soon, you and Maril engaged in a fight.

Even though Maril had advanced to the rank of Imperial, you were no pushover.

However, since it was too close to the elven territory, you were afraid of accidentally harming the elves, so you fought while trying to distance yourself from there.]

[The strength of an Imperial level surpasses your imagination.

Even though your current level is eleven levels higher than Maril's, and your level of proficiency is much higher, you are still being suppressed in the fight.

This battle lasted for ten days and nights, pushing you to your limits.

Maril is now incredibly serious as well. He had initially thought that after advancing to the Imperial level, he could easily crush you, but he realized he was wrong.

His strength surpassed yours, but defeating you wasn't as easy as he thought.]

[Maril remembered what you had taught him, that a lion strikes with all its might.

Once he gained the upper hand, he never gave you a chance to catch your breath.

You had trained him too well, and in terms of combat, he was not inferior to you in the slightest.]

[In the end, Maril decapitated you. However, you didn't die immediately.

As Maril looked at your lifeless body and the severed head, his expression suddenly changed.

He realized that after killing you, he didn't feel as excited as he had imagined.

Instead, he was overwhelmed by a profound sense of emptiness.]

[You were surprised to see Maril looking disappointed.

You had expected him to be exhilarated after successfully killing you, but that wasn't the case.

However, now you were about to die, and you didn't have the energy to think about it anymore.

Fifteen minutes later, you died.]

[Simulation ended, overall score: 15,400]

[This was a relatively successful life simulation.]

[You can use your evaluation points to exchange for the following items.]

[Option 1: Level up by one level. Cost: 1,000 evaluation points.]

[Option 2: Obtain complete memories of this life. Cost: 1,500 evaluation points.]

[Option 3: Upgrade Battle Instinct Lv. Max / Deadly Strike Lv. Max to Super Perception / Feral Force. Cost: 1,500 evaluation points.]

[Option 4: Level up Iron Body Lv. 1 by one level. Cost: 100 evaluation points. Can be selected multiple times.]

[Option 5: Level up Swift as the Wind Lv. 1 by one level. Cost: 200 evaluation points. Can be selected multiple times.]

[Option 6: Level up one of the following abilities: Regeneration Lv. 3, Focus Lv. 5, Tough Skin Lv. 1, Impact Absorption Lv. 1, Counter Lv. 1, Block Lv. 1 by one level. Cost: 40 points. Can be selected multiple times.]

[Option 7: Acquire Demon Mutation. Cost: 13,000 evaluation points.]

[Option 8: Acquire Magic Amplification. Cost: 800 evaluation points.]

Upon seeing the eight options and his remaining balance, Goburo deliberated for a long time.

His eyes were fixed on Demon Mutation, aware of the immense benefits it could bring.

However, after purchasing Demon Mutation, he would only have enough points to buy the memories of this life and some random skills.

After much contemplation, he made a decision.

"Forget it, I won't buy Demon Evolution.

From what I've seen so far, each simulation presents different evolution paths.

Demon evolution isn't necessarily the strongest path.

If I don't purchase Demon Evolution, I can buy all the other skills and level up by six levels. It seems wiser to increase some levels."

Having made up his mind, Goburo maxed out all the skills except Demon Mutation.

[Purchase complete. 480 points remaining for talent extraction next time.]

Talents: Devour, Green Eyes, Monster Language, Medium-sized Stomach, Great Strength, Magic Amplification

Upon seeing his new attributes, Goburo let out a long sigh of relief.

Reaching the King level only cost a little over 15,000 evaluation points, which was less than he had imagined.

Even so, his strength had improved significantly.

[System, how many magic crystals will I need for the next simulation?]

[For the next simulation, you will need 125 Tier 2 magic crystals or 6,250 Tier 1 magic crystals.]

Hesitating in response to the system's answer, Goburo felt that he might not be able to accumulate that many magic crystals for a long time.

Exiting the system, a flood of memories rushed into Goburo's mind, and his body began to expand.

When he woke up again, the outside sky hadn't changed, indicating that not much time had passed.
