Chapter 299 - Humanity Can Be Strong (2/2)

Evan has only to join the Demonic Tree, and then he could devote all his free time to himself. Destroying light organization camps was interesting, but it caused Evan's progress to slow down a bit.

”But it seems that it wasn't just a matter of good compatibility. After all, I give them a potion of three different kinds of blood. By the theory of probability, someone else should have had more compatibility with your blood than Giel. But, no one has ever been able to surpass it. Of course, you can say that it's just a coincidence that Giel is a good match for the three blood types, but I don't believe in such coincidences.> Rave explained.

He corrected his glasses and continued, ”Then I started looking for the reason for this phenomenal progress. Eventually, I concluded that it was all about Giel's desire to become stronger and to be able to decide his own destiny.”

”Desire?” Evan asked, puzzled.

”Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that Giel became so strong just because he wanted to. I believe there are many factors interconnected here. Otherwise, there would be a lot of people in the world strong enough to fight monsters. Because Giel isn't the only one who wants to be strong.” Pronounced Rave.

”And what are these factors?” Asked Evan.

”I think it's all about his cells and desire. When he drank the monster's blood, his cells began to change like those of other people. His cells began to look like monster cells. It's because of their unique cells that monsters can have the most unusual and crazy evolutions.”

”Do you think his cells are progressing faster than others because he wants them to?” Asked Evan.

”Exactly. It's something like the placebo effect. Because of his great desire to become stronger, his changed cells respond to his call. In this way, he progresses faster than others. I don't think Giel is alone. There are millions and even billions of people living in this world. Among them, you can find people with a desire as strong as Giel's. But, because their cells are incapable of becoming powerful, they remain weak for the rest of their lives.”

<Hmm, this is an interesting hypothesis. Moreover, it is most likely correct. Malespera was able to enter Gust even though she was an ordinary human. Maybe humans have a lot of potentials, but they can't unlock it because they don't have some catalyst. Mages, monsters, and beasts have mana and cells, abilities, and spells. Humans have none of these things. But once Giel got the blood of monsters and humans with a special body constitution, his potential began to reveal itself.> Evan thought.

”How strong do you think Giel can get?” Asked Evan.

”Unfortunately, his progress has slowed in recent days. I don't think it's because he's fighting spirit is gone. On the contrary, I see his thirst for strength only getting stronger every day. He trains hard and fights hard. Giel asks me about experiments and even gives me some ideas, but his progress slows rather than accelerates.” With dissatisfaction in his voice, Rave said.

”Do you know what the reason is?” Evan asked.

Rave nodded, ”Yes, I figured it out quickly. Giel has become incredibly strong by the standards of an ordinary human, and his desire to get stronger is helping him to progress quickly. But despite all that, he is still an ordinary human like the others.. In order for him not to have any limits, he must finally become a creature of the new race.”
