Chapter 497: The Evolution God, Eevee Shengzai!

The other Legendary Pokémon, puzzled by Shengzai’s request, could not understand what was so desirable about becoming human.

“Are you certain you wish to gain the power to become human, rather than greater power?”

Facing Arceus’s repeated question, Shengzai still answered without hesitation that he wanted only the ability to become human.

Powerful abilities? They’re not bad, but I, Shengzai, stand backed by countless worlds—someday, when a Dao Ancestor Shengzai or a Saiyan Shengzai appears, my strength will skyrocket overnight.

At that time, not even this puny Creation Goat, but all the Legendary Pokémon together would merely be coming to deliver their heads.

One by one, the Creation Plates flew out from behind Arceus, quickly coalescing into a sphere of light that slowly sank into Shengzai’s body.

I have granted you the power you desired; yet, by accepting my power, you become my subordinate.

“From this day forward, I bestow upon you the authority to control Pokémon evolution.”

As the power from Arceus’s Creation Plates fully merged into Shengzai’s body, his figure dissolved into the air.

Seeing Arceus depart and glancing once at Shengzai, their new colleague, the other Legendary Pokémon also chose to leave one by one.

Shengzai, now empowered by Arceus, began rapidly growing; his original Eevee form started changing swiftly.

Originally, Eevee resembled a small fox, but after receiving Arceus’s power, Shengzai’s fluffy tail grew slender and split into nine tails.

Each of these nine tails bore a different color—eight of them represented the types of Shengzai’s eight Eevee evolutions.

The final tail was the “Evolution Tail,” empowered by Arceus.

This tail’s power could directly trigger evolution in ordinary Pokémon and freely alter Shengzai’s own Pokémon type.

Yes, now Shengzai possessed not only the eight Eevee evolution types, but also Dragon, Flying, Ghost, and all other types.

In short, under the power of Arceus’s Creation Plates, Shengzai now possessed all eighteen Pokémon types, just like Arceus himself.

Of course, Shengzai himself paid little attention to these powers.

After receiving Arceus’s power, he became a true Legendary Pokémon—but even without this power, he could still crush Legendary Pokémon effortlessly.

Having eight evolution forms and now being granted authority over Pokémon evolution suited him perfectly.

But what truly mattered to him was that he could finally become human!

After Arceus and the other Legendary Pokémon departed, Shengzai adjusted to his new power, then, under the watchful eyes of Carol and others, was suddenly engulfed in a blinding white light.

This time, the radiant white light bursting from his body was not the glow of evolution—it was another transformation: the change from Pokémon to human.

As the blinding light gradually faded, Carol and the others stared curiously at where Shengzai had stood.

Seeing Shengzai now in human form, Carol and the others each wore different expressions.

Goh gazed at Shengzai and marveled at the wonder of life and Arceus’s immense power.

As a woman, Jungle and Carol stared at Shengzai with sparkling eyes—Carol even blurted out: “Shengzai, I never thought you’d be so cute as a human.”

Hearing Carol’s words, Shengzai—just transformed into human form and still unaware of his new appearance—felt a sudden dread.

“Carol, cute? What kind of word is that? Shouldn’t it be ‘handsome and intimidating’?”

“I, Eevee Shengzai, am a real man! Calling me ‘cute’ is an insult to my manliness…”

Shengzai immediately protested Carol’s assessment.

But the moment he spoke, he realized something was wrong.

His words were indeed human language—but the voice that came out was far too childish.

He turned to look at the glass window beside him, and upon seeing his clear reflection, he froze in place, muttering: “Why did I turn out like this? This is nothing like what I imagined…”

No wonder Carol had called him cute—before him in the glass reflection stood a boy no taller than one meter fifty, appearing only about eight years old.

A round, collagen-rich face, porcelain-smooth skin, and heterochromatic eyes so captivating they drew you in at a glance.

Though his appearance was still undeniably striking, the problem was—this was a kid’s face, and kid’s looks were utterly useless…

After all that effort, he finally became human—but sadly, he’d merely moved from the “Abnormal Group” of Shengzais to the “Little Boy Group.”

He had the equipment, but he was still too young to use it…

In a harem world, he might have been able to ride the big car—but now… he had the equipment but zero capability.

“Carol, this Eevee used to be close to you, and you’re currently taking care of it, right?”

“Could you let me look after him for a few days? I find him fascinating—he’s still a child, yet speaks like an old man.”

Shengzai wanted to seek after-sales service from Arceus, but sadly, the Creation Goat had vanished without a trace.

After careful thought, Shengzai soon understood why he’d turned out this way.

Though his soul was an adult, this body—the original Eevee—had lived only about eight to nine years since birth.

Therefore, when granted the power to become human, his human appearance naturally matched the growth cycle of his original body.

“At least things aren’t too bad—compared to Shengzai in the Death Note world, I, Eevee Shengzai, still have room to grow…”

Shengzai was still comforting himself when, in the next instant, someone picked him up.

Carol lifted the little-boy Shengzai and declared, as if claiming ownership before Jungle: “Regrettably, this child is already very comfortable in my home, and we get along wonderfully.”

“He has no intention of going to anyone else’s house, Miss Jungle—you might as well give up.”
