Aside from the Vampire souls getting into their new ghost appearances and being given to Rose to do whatever she wanted with them, alongside the new factory of negative energy made of the tortured souls of the Dark Shadow Sect Members I caught and left inside of Rose's Phantasmal Stomach (which is a new ability of hers by the way), there were other things that happened last night after the entire incident.

Although I thought about completely cleaning the entire territory where the Dark Shadow Sect ruins remained, I preferred to leave them be, as Mikohime told me that it would be better to leave them like this so we could use this place as proof that we defeated the Dark Shadow Sect to the Righteous Sects or Nations that might come check here after the entire commotion.

She and Vasilisius were willing to talk with them and help me out in covering me up, while also giving me a lot of credit for my good deeds, and make me a popular figure… I didn't liked this idea, so I just told them that they didn't had to make me into someone popular, because that would only bring more dangers than anything.

Although they seemed adamant over it, they ended accepting my request and decided to not reveal the things… that well, I didn't wanted them to reveal.

Still, their plan was still to talk to them about me and my feats but ask them to not make information about me widespread, let's see if that even works.

But it appears that this world is way more connected than I thought, we were just living in very faraway lands that people often call the "wild lands" where cold temperatures are too much and nations usually not form here but only small sects and villages, however, to the warmer areas of the continent where the snow begins to become rarer and where you can see grass and beautiful flower fields and forests of more trees than just pine trees, there are nations.

And all of such nations are interconnected, so it was recommended to me that I didn't shy away from being registered in the Continental Sect List if I was planning to remain righteous, and I did, so that was the plan. There were many benefits to being registered there, amongst them, the possibility of joining other sects and nations into that meeting they do in the Primeval Frost Soul Court, where I could get a lot of information about many things, so I am looking forward to joining that.

Although they said that they would explain further details about all these systems and the mechanics today, as yesterday we spent the last hours of the day celebrating a bit, although I didn't wanted anything too big, but we all gathered in the Winter Lotus Sect territory and ate to our heart's content in a big feast.

And now today in the morning I woke up to a very healthy little pink fox.

Well, not so healthy, but she looked like she had gained a lot of her energy back.

"Drake! I am feeling pretty fine now! Let's go beat the baddies!" said Belle while waving her tail- tails.

Indeed, tails, now she had a second tail. She had evolved before I realized it.

Apparently, Spirits are capable of evolving, something that left me pretty surprised because I had originally thought they often stayed as they were or just grew up in size.

But no, just like most monsters and even demi-humans, spirits can evolve after meeting certain conditions, they don't have mana cores like us, so they can only evolve in places with a lot of spiritual energy and mana to absorb naturally, over hundreds of years, or… by making a contract with a master. Strengthening their bond with their master would increase their mass, and with that, alongside their master growing stronger, they would be able to evolve.

Now, my Belle had gained a second tail, and she had grown in size by ten centimeters… she also gained a cute necklace made of shiny pink and white pearls.

She woke up with a lot of energy though, despite still being mildly not in her peak even after evolving, she wanted to aid me now, but thing is… we already did it.

"Sorry… we kind of already did it." I said.

"Eh? When?!" she asked.

"Yesterday…" said Benladann, who had woken up and was yawning while sitting on bed.

"Ah…! Damn it! I couldn't be of any use to master…" she sighed.

Maybe I should had waited another day?

Well, what's done is done.

"Don't worry about it, things ended quickly and there was as great closure to it, that bastard is not coming back, so I avenged you from having taken so much damage, and well, myself too, that damage in the soul he had inflicted to me could had potentially killed me…" I sighed.

"Wow… So was he strong?" asked Belle.

"Erm…"

"Well…"

Benladann and I looked at one another's eyes, she had experienced the fight through Miranda's body and had also helped fighting against Black with me through Miranda, so it could be said that she participated in the fight and also fought.

And she could agree that the fight was… well, short. One would had expected much more form a final boss-tier villain, but he was very disappointing.

But for the sake of keeping her hopes up…

"Yeah, it was a very strong villain! We really thought we wouldn't had made it! Many times we wished you were there to help." I said.

"T-That's right! He was a formidable… foe…" said Benladann, she was terrible at lying and averted her gaze from Belle to not make it too obvious in her face. But that actually made it even more obvious!

"Wow! Really? Damn it, that only makes me want to have joined the fight!" sighed Belle.

"Well, what's done is done! Don't worry, I am sure that in the future you'll be able to join fights soon and be able to help more," said Benladann.
