Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

320 Aella's Evolution (2)

"Is it alright if I choose the Gale Wolf option?"

The moment Shin heard this, the ground under his legs broke apart.

What she asked was completely opposite to what he wanted.

"Why…?", Shin asked.

He couldn't understand what she was thinking. The best way to know her thoughts was to ask her and that's what he did.

"I want to get stronger and with Gale wolf form, I think my wind attributes will grow significantly.", she said.

Shin took a step back.

The thing is, he didn't explain all the percentage increases in stats. He just gave a brief note on what would happen.

For example, he said - "With Gale wolf form, your wind attributes will increase significantly." And after this, he continued to say, "As for Tempest wolf, you will acquire lightning attributes."

However, in reality, the increase in wind attributes was 200% for both, the Gale wolf and Sirocco wolf. Therefore, choosing the Sirocco evolution option would increase her wind attributes to the same level as that of a Gale wolf while adding fire skills to her arsenal.

He then gave the exact information about all the wolves to get rid of her confusion and finally after hearing all that, Aella said, "Ah, then Sirocco wolf is the best choice!"

She tried to smile while saying that as if she wanted to show that she was excited, but she failed to do so.

The little smile only showed how dissatisfied she was with choosing the Sirocco wolf form.

'Uh…'

'I don't understand why she dislikes the Sirocco option. Out of all four, that is by far the best one…', Shin thinks on the matter.

'System, what do I do…?', he asks the system's opinion.

However, the system only replied based on the pure stats.

*Ding*

[Sirocco Wolf option is the best possible evolutionary option among the list of four.]

The system too was with Shin. So he knew that he was right, but then a thought struck his mind.

He asked, 'What are the disadvantages of evolving into a Sirocco wolf?'

'No, could you give me the disadvantages of all the options?', Shin asked, changing his question instantly as he realized that he had left out one of the most important factors that one should consider while evolving.

*Ding*

[Disadvantages: ]

[Gale Wolf]

[-> Chance of evolution: 70%.]

[Tempest Wolf]

[-> Chance of evolution: 55%]

[-> Weak against Earth-type attacks/monsters.]

[-> Loss of True-breed line.]

[Aeolian Wolf]

[-> Chance of evolution: 50%]

[-> Weak against Water-type attacks/monsters.]

[-> Loss of True-breed line.]

[Sirocco Wolf]

[-> Chance of evolution: 25%]

[-> Weak against Water-type attacks/monsters.]

[-> Loss of True-breed line.]

There were three disadvantages mentioned in all except the Gale wolf form.

Of course, since the chances of evolution were less than 100%, it was somewhat considered as a disadvantage or a drawback. This meant that even if there was a high chance of succeeding in the evolution, there still existed a chance of failure.

What would happen when one fails an evolution?

It was simple. They will lose a few levels!

Shin only came to know this recently when he had seen some Shadow wolves trying to evolve but failed to do so. They lost 3-4 levels in a go when this happened.

Therefore, Shin was finally reminded of the fact that the Sirocco wolf had a low success rate. If Aella failed her evolution, then she would have to use all those exp points that had stockpiled to level up yet again!

'Sigh, safe…'

'It's good that she didn't accept Sirocco option and retaliated…', Shin sighed.

He then looked at the weaknesses that were displayed for each type.

'Why does the wind-type Gale wolf have no weakness…?', he wondered as he stared at the screen for a couple of seconds.

'System, does wind-type have no natural weakness?', Shin asked.

*Ding*

[A wind-type generally has no weakness. Its attack is effective against all-natural elements.]

[Note: Even if a wind-type attack has no weakness, the beast/creature of the said type is said to be weak against various categories - electric, ice, dark, etc.]

'I see…'

'The system is trying to say that, a wild-type's weakness is actually the weakness of the beast. Since Aella is already a wind-type, her already existing weakness would be the same for the Gale wolf.'

'Since it is a straight or direct evolution from wind-type to wind-type, there is no need for a special mention of the weaknesses…', Shin nodded his head as he understood what the system tried to tell to him.

Then he finally moved on to the last point - 'Loss of True-breed line.'

This was confusing, but not all that new to him.

He knew what it meant by true breed, but losing the line was what confused him a bit.

He needed clarification and therefore didn't hesitate to ask the system.

'Care to explain what the third disadvantage means?', he asked.

*Ding*

[The individual Aella will lose the ability to produce pure affinity types if she were to evolve into any other forms other than Gale wolf.]

This one sentence was more than enough to make Shin understand the essence of her rejection.

The child produced by Aella would be of the wind-type, if and only if she were to evolve into a Gale Wolf. This is confirmed.

But if she were to evolve into a Tempest Wolf, there is a 50% chance of a thunder/lightning type offspring and another 505 of a wind-type.

The same is true for the other two options. In the case of Aeolian, 50% would be Earth-type and 50% would be wind-type and for Sirocco, 50% would be fire-type and 50% would be wind-type.

This is what Aella disliked. She wanted to remain a true wind-type wolf and wanted to produce wind-type children. She imagined herself leading her mother's pack and all the wind-type wolves.

Shin didn't know this.

She isn't some inconsequential character! She has feelings and emotions. She would have had ambitions too!

Shin confronted her regarding this and asked her about it, only to finally realize that what he thought was true. She indeed hoped to be a true-wind wolf.

And this was when a point clicked in Shin's mind - Wind Guardian.
