Arthur thought, as he activated his summoning talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dark, circular portal appeared once again in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur's eyes widened slightly as the portal hummed with energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadows twisted, swirling in chaotic patterns before solidifying into a figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur tensed, expecting another insignificant summon like the beetle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar shape emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Again?\" he muttered, disbelief laced in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stepping out of the portal was yet another beetle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This one was slightly larger than the first, its shell a deeper shade of obsidian. It clicked its mandibles, antennae twitching as if scanning its new environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur exhaled sharply, rubbing his temples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What are the odds?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had summoned only twice today, and both times, he had gotten beetles. Not wolves, not panthers, not even a bird—just beetles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers twitched, tempted to dismiss it immediately. But then he stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Wait.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes flickered as he activated Evolution Pathway once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Focus: Before specialising in a certain field, the beetle must first reach epic grade.

It has already killed ten weaker beetles and refined them.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ding! Evolution is in progress (Countdown: 30 Seconds)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirty seconds passed in the blink of an eye and the second prompt arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ding!

'Sylvaris' is ready for evolution, would you like it to evolve?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart pounded in anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sylvaris had worked hard for this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur didn't hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before pressing YES, he summoned the serpent. He wasn't about to let it evolve without witnessing the transformation firsthand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dark rift split the air as Sylvaris slithered through the portal. The moment its shimmering silver body emerged, it let out a soft hiss, its tongue flicking toward Arthur in what could almost be described as a pleased expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur smirked. \"Well done, Sylvaris.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The serpent lifted its head proudly, eyes glinting like polished obsidian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur pressed YES.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ding!

But then again—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sylvaris was evolving beyond Epic rank. The sheer magnitude of that change warranted time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur stepped back as a warm, white light engulfed Sylvaris.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The serpent trembled for a moment before going completely still, its body coiling inward as if in a protective stance. The light wrapped around it like a cocoon, pulsing faintly with energy, growing denser with each passing second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur could feel the power building within Sylvaris.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur's stomach growled softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He frowned. \"I haven't eaten in so long…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sigh, he unsummoned Sylvaris for his safety as he evolved, then turned on his heel and strode toward the inn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three hours—he had time to kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The streets of Caldera bustled with life, even at this hour. Merchants barked prices, adventurers swapped stories over tankards, and the occasional drunkard stumbled between alleyways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur ignored it all, his mind half-occupied with thoughts of Sylvaris's imminent evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arriving at the inn, he wasted no time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat at the farthest table, ordered something simple—a plate of roasted meat and fresh bread—then ate in silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>",1027,"2026-06-06T12:00:36.159Z",1,"novelbin.me","e4222c807368361e24395e7efbadbfea6a895acab64678d2570c11f35ab316a1","online-game-starting-with-sss-ranked-summons-chapter-184","online-game-starting-with-sss-ranked-summons-chapter-182",601,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fonline-game-starting-with-sss-ranked-summons-cover.jpg"]
