║You gotta stop opening and closing your mouth, Everlearn. That won’t change anything.║
The system panel blinked as Everlearn finally sighed, his head dropping low.
’I’ve always been so proud of it, you know,’ he mused to himself.
Being cute for a boy ca with many advantages.
You get free cuddles that make one feel like sinking into paradise, and many unfair passes that would have normally been denied by most.
You get easily endearing to most and have them more willing to share sothing with you, even without doing much for them.
Besides, you’re less suspicious of a bad act being attributed to you, and even if you were caught for sothing, you could smartly blink your bubbly eyes, and they’d be the ones feeling bad for scolding you.
Everlearn had learned to harness his cute charms ever since he was ten, and it had indeed taken him very far both academically and socially.
But now it was all gone.
The face he had now was far from endearing.
If there was a murder in a place and he happened to be standing close, he would be the first suspect!
"Well, I guess there’s no point sulking about it then," he mused to himself, brushing away the sadness.
This look itself wasn’t that bad. At least no one would underestimate him anymore based on his looks.
One of the things that had always happened with his previous face.
Washing off the goo from his body, he moved out, dressing in a hoodie and trousers before heading to his training room and washing off the putrid goo from it.
When he was done, he couldn’t help but look at the training room.
It was dry. Too dry and empty, with only a simple punching bag.
His mind couldn’t help but drift back to when he had gone to the academy shop area and found the Training Room Shop.
It contained stuff that the students could use to design their training rooms and improve their strength.
’Maybe I should get a couple of simulations tomorrow,’ he mused to himself before exiting the training room.
Picking up his device, he moved to the living room and sat on the sofa.
He had received a notification that he had awakened new skills, so he wanted to check those out.
"Initiate MDS Protocol," he ordered, and in the next mont, the golden panel blinked to life.
Everlearn quickly navigated to the Skills and Abilities tab and there found them.

The transformation channels divine energy circuits unique to the Illumino design.
EFFECTS:
— Temporarily enhances Strength and Endurance by 50%.
— Claws can shred steel and deflect low-grade energy attacks.
— The golden maw can bite through high-density materials and drain chanical essence from damaged constructs.

══════════════════════════════════════════
The first skill was easy to understand for Everlearn.
Even based on the na, he got the gist of things.
It allowed him to copy other ch modules with a touch.
Though not perfectly, as seen by the 50% mark, but that could be improved.
His heart was sent into a frenzy at the thought of him using the skill.
If he had this during his fight with Vulcan, he could have copied the dude’s chainsaws and slashed him to pieces.
The ability to copy most ch modules was insane, and he couldn’t wait to try it out.
And the fact that it allowed him to copy kind of made him relate to the system’s original power, which was cha Devourer.
’ch Devour. ch Copy seems like a preface to that,’ he mused to himself before turning to the other skill.
Illumino Transformation.
This one was more complicated.
It was a transformation skill, obviously, but then, when Everlearn looked at what was transford, the mouth shifting into a maw that could bite through steel and claws, it reminded him of those wolves back in the Illumino cha Grave.
He had found these beasts also having maws of iron that allowed them to devour tals, and they also had those tallic claws, the sa thing the skill description said.
Even the birds that almost killed him also had chanical talons and tallic beaks.
"Did I gain the skill from being in the Illumino cha Grave?"
’Gaining a skill due to being in a place? Is there such a thing?’
’What was even that place?’
’What were those buried chs? It said it was a grave. Are those chs all really dead or inactive?’
’And if they’re dead, what reduced such ginormous beings to that state?’
’And how did I gain access to such a place?’
’A dream? Is it a real place sowhere?’
He had millions of questions, but the system, which would have usually responded to his confusion, was silent this ti.
He had a feeling it wouldn’t give him anything, and he would have to find those answers himself.
DRIIING!
DRIIIIING!
DRIIIIIIIIIING!
The sound of his device vibrating brought him out of it, and he turned to it.
A beeping alarm of the ti 6:00 PM.
He had told Rosa the other day that he would be available at six, and he had set up an alarm for that.
Now that he was done with his evolution and not much left to do, he decided to go for it, picking up his green card from the table and covering his hair with his hoodie.
BEEP!
The door made a stifling beep as he stepped out, just to find a figure already by his door, with two riding helts in hand.
