It seems that the Ego Weapons regained the ability to float by themselves, it was a pretty nice thing. Now I don't have to waste MP into making them fly and they can control themselves even better. Aquamarine was already able to move alone by turning into water or a tiger, but now the other two can do the same and even fly. Things are finally looking better for my poor Caterpillar life. But now, there's more than that to do. They might be able to fly and turn into elements, but that's not all they got in terms of skills, all three of them received a substantial boost to their powers after all!

What surprised me the most was first their Cla.s.s changes. I never thought that merely "evolving" granted Cla.s.s Changes, and it appears that they got into better Cla.s.ses at that. Starting from Black who became a [Black Spear Knight] and a [Dark Magician], White that changed into [Holy Spear Saint] and [Holy Priestess], and Aquamarine that changed into [Magical Beast Accessory] and [Water and Frost Magician], they all seem to be enhancements and upgrades from previous Cla.s.ses, which is honestly quite sweet.

And last but not least, the Skills. Starting with Black, he acquired the already mentioned [Darkness Embodiment: Lv1], but he also got the [Blood Feast: Lv1], a Skill that seems to allow him to absorb the blood of foes he slays and enhance his stats temporarily, the more blood, the more the bonuses, but it is temporal, so the more bonuses he gets, the shorter the time, and the only way to extend the time is by feasting on more blood, and then the [One Hundred Shadow Stingers: Lv1] Skill, this one Skill seems to be in the offensive side, a physical attack hat looks devastating as it summons a hundred illusory shadow spears or "stingers" that pierce a foe or a group of foes with swift speed and piercing precision. Looks deadly.

And then comes White with her [Light Embodiment: Lv1] that was already addressed and then [Sanctuary: Lv1], this one skill seemed like the most mysterious to me, but it is actually quite interesting, it feels like a Domain Skill, by Summoning this Sanctuary and setting it up in the floor, anyone that steps on it receives a small enhancement to all their stats by around +5% with each skill level, and they also recover HP constantly, it seems to also be able to shelter from damage as if it were a big barrier, but it takes a lot of MP from the user, sadly. Anyways, the other Skill she has is [Holy Lance: Lv1], this one is rather straightforward, it is merely a physical attack using her body, covering herself with light and suddenly shapes.h.i.+fting into an enormous and glorious lance to pierce a foe with an explosive piercing blow, very good.

And last but not least, Aquamarine's new Skills are all related to Magic. They're [Ocean Vortex: Lv1] and [Frost Prison: Lv1]. The first one seems to be able to generate a powerful vortex of oceanic water that engulfs a foe in it and deals constant damage while drowning them. The other Skill controls the element of Ice and unleashes a freezing cold ice wave over a foe or a set of foes, leaving them completely frozen as if it were a Frost Prison. Aquamarine was already great at magic but now he got two more enhancements for his magical playstyle.

"You guys have gotten pretty amazing- Woah!"

FLAAAAs.h.!.+

Black suddenly turned into a ma.s.s of darkness that looked like a sinister specter, flying around by shaping his back into bat-like wings.

"Bwahahaha! This is way better than being a stupid spear!" He laughed. "Somehow, it feels right at home too! Maybe I had wings like these before becoming whatever I am right now!" Black laughed happily, flying around. I guess he was pretty happy by himself, I couldn't help but feel happy as well. He used to be quite the a.s.shole back then but now he had really softened up to us.

"Hey, get down here, stop messing around!" I said.

"No! The sky is the limit, and I will surpa.s.s it! …Ugh!" Black cried, suddenly falling down into the floor as a spear.

"Hm? What happened?" I asked.

"I-I am out of MP…" Sighed Black.

Apparently, using the Element Embodiment Skills drains MP constantly, especially if you take weird shapes with it. They're able to keep them when they're with me or a wielder because we supply them with our own MP. Elfina has a surprisingly large quant.i.ty of MP at over 20k. So she can wield them and feed them MP all she wants and they should be able to fight pretty well.

But it's not like I am just letting her have them! I am going to use them as well as much as I can, I feel like for the upcoming war against the Human Empire, I have to go all out, abusing their strength is going to be necessary for our survival.

"Dummy, you only have five thousand MP, not as much as Masters." Sighed White, floating at the side of Black, who was rolling over the floor furiously.

"S-Shut the h.e.l.l up! I knew that! I was merely… testing my limits…" Black said with embarra.s.sment, he really didn't wanted to admit that he ended going a bit ahead of himself and ended falling stupidly into the ground.

"Hahaha, you're tired, uncle? You have little MP compared with me!" Laughed the little Aquamarine in his tiger form, using his paws to play around with Black by making him roll over the ground.

"Agh! Stop that!" Black angrily roared.

Indeed, the weapons lack Stat Points and Skill Points like everyone else has with the Soul Book, which seems rather disappointing, but I can guess that they're very different compared with the people of this world, from their bodies to their unique "Ego" souls. That they can still get their own Soul Books despite that and evolve, level up, and learn Skills over time and through practice is good enough for me to be honest.

"Well, for now, what should I do?" I wondered.
