Infinite Evolution: Dominating The Apocalypse With My God Tier Items

Seth stared at the Charm Beast’s egg as the oracle crystal went on and on about the benefits and fortune of meeting such a vulnerable Charm Beast.

But deep down, as he held fast to his sword, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

Something felt off. He felt boxed in, like a mouse trapped for observation.

He couldn’t tell where this feeling came from, but his gut had never been wrong.

In the end, his blade flashed, splitting the Charm Beast egg in two. Then he turned to the corruption seed.

He was just about to ask how to destroy it, but then he realized... he already knew how.

When he had been told, or how he had come across this information, he couldn’t tell. But suddenly the answer poured into his mind.

Once more, the faint sound of an infant’s chuckle flitted past his ears. Seth shuddered as his hair stood on end.

The emerald oracle crystal levitated above his shoulder silently, pulsing with faint lights, remaining eerily quiet the whole time.

"Fuck this, let’s be done with this. It’s getting too creepy." Seth squeezed the words through gritted teeth.

His sword arced, his heartbeat speeding along with the strike. And once more, the moment his blade cleaved into the roiling blight...

His vision spun, his mind reeled as a fog clouded over his thoughts. Before he could understand what was happening...

Seth blinked as he walked out of the dense foggy haze, coming into a clearing.

The moment he observed his surroundings, his heart hammered against his chest.

His veins bulged as adrenaline flooded them. His pupils flickered from left to right, trying to understand what was happening.

A dull ache pulsed at the back of his head, like a dense mist obscuring his mind.

Somehow he perceived a stifling aura in the air. Goosebumps rose in waves. He swung his head toward a particular direction — but there was nothing.

Suddenly, a sinister chuckle of an infant flitted past his ears. Sweat matted his back as he thought:

’It sounds louder and closer now.’

But then he froze. Louder and closer now?

He was sure he had never heard this before. Why would he think that?

He frowned, but regardless, he summoned courage, walking toward the two system-labeled objects in the distance.

This time, reading them didn’t bother Seth as much. He didn’t know why, but he was more terrified of something else — something he couldn’t even feel or see.

As he got closer, he felt a familiar tug from his inventory.

"Strange. I have an intense feeling of déjà vu. Something really isn’t right." He muttered as his gaze moved from the egg to the corruption seed.

He decided against the urge to release the oracle crystal, progressing ahead without it.

For some reason, he could already guess what it would say — like he had heard it speak already.

He gritted his teeth as his sword flashed, splitting the egg into two. It soon turned into powdery ash.

But somehow Seth felt nothing when doing this. No accomplishment, no dissatisfaction at how easy it seemed.

His gaze turned to the corruption seed as his blade swung toward it without hesitation.

Once more, the infant chuckle rang louder. He could practically see the mental image of a little boy rolling side to side, laughing wildly as he kicked at the air, tears of laughter pooling in his eyes.

Except the eyes — entrancing crimson, like a swirling cosmic haze that seemed to hold all secrets within their gaze.

’No... this isn’t a mental image. I’m looking at my true foe.’

By the time Seth realized this, it was too late. His blade cut into the corruption seed.

The boy suddenly turned in his direction, wearing a smile too wide to be human. He slapped his lap like a toddler asking for more, yelling in an almost cute voice: "Again! Again! Again!"

Seth felt a biting cold creep down his spine, his pupils quivering but unable to fight what came next...

Seth blinked as he walked out of the foggy haze, finally coming into a clearing.

Just at the boundary of the wide, dry, drought-filled land.

Seth stared at it all, and he felt fear on a visceral level.

He didn’t know why, but he knew he had to leave this place — and fast.

He turned around, ready to walk back into the fog when...

"Hmph!" A soft voice of a child echoed in his mind. The mental projection of the young boy puffed his cheeks, pouting as his entrancing crimson pupils focused on Seth.

Seth shivered. For some reason, he felt like nothing beneath that gaze.

The boy slapped his lap harder this time, his tone bordering on anger. "I said again!"

Seth’s mind fogged, his vision spun, and a dull ache thudded at the back of his head.

Then he blinked, and once more he was walking out of the vast foggy haze into a dry, cracked land clearing.

He scowled. "What the fuck happened here?" he hissed in apprehension as he stared at the drought-infested plain.

The field — to think a once lush area padded with bright green grass could become like this.

His pupils constricted as his vision honed on two objects in the distance.

Reading the system prompt, he smiled. Those were his targets.

He walked forward toward them. As he got closer, he felt a tug from his inventory.

The oracle crystal was calling once more. Seth didn’t hesitate to summon it again.

And a familiar exchange played out — Seth’s conversation with the crystal, so smooth it was like every trace of memory he had of the previous loops was gone.

Finally, after being egged on, he stood before the onyx egg radiating a spine-tingling aura.

He wielded his blade, raising it into the air.

The oracle crystal bobbed and watched excitedly it knew what was about to happen in fact it was happy things were now going accordingly.

Seth’s eyes glinted with a subtle sinister light as the blade fell... but it went in the wrong direction. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

A grey arc flashed as the broadsword whistled through the wind — toward the oracle crystal.

It pulsed frantically, trying to whizz through the air to escape, its mechanical voice ringing out, not so inhuman but frantic:

[A-are you mad? Why are you striking against me? I’m on your side!]

Seth’s expression remained cold, not even giving a reply as his blade collided into the emerald crystal before it could go far, bursting it into shards.

Everywhere went silent for a bit. Then suddenly...

Aaaaargh!

A pained shriek of a child rang out as the scattering emerald shards of the oracle crystal turned crimson.

Crackle!

Cracks ran across reality around him as the void pulsed unstably before everything shattered.

Seth blinked, and this time, though he was in the clearing, his circumstances were different.

His eyes flickered coldly. "Finally out."
