Shadow Monarch: Heroines Could Hear My Thoughts?!

Chapter 159- Transformation (Part 2)

​ What does becoming a top 10 ranker mean?

For Rin, it means that he becomes closer to the peak of power in this world than ever before. It meant that he finally broke down the limit that was put on him for being a human and turned into another completely different being that possessed the strength to manipulate and twist reality itself.

That\'s what being the strongest means. To finally be able to not fear anything that can stand in front of you.

It was going to be hard and maybe even near impossible considering the huge amount of problems that keep standing in front of him every other day at this point, he still believed that eventually, he was going to achieve that peak or die trying to do so. There was no third option because for Rin life and death weren\'t the only important things. It\'s how he lives and how he dies that matter the most. If he died while at the peak after achieving everything he dreamed of then that was the best thing he could ask for.

Life without substance is not a life for Rin.

\'Well, if it is meant to be then it will happen.\' He sighed and looked back at Sorophi. He was about to open his mouth to speak something. However, the moment he noticed the weird phenomenon happening in front of him. A faint light could be seen surrounding Sorophi that was considerably bright.

Its faint red color didn\'t add any ominous feeling to it and instead somehow made it warmer and brimming with life than before. The smile on Sorophi\'s beautiful face also made the sight even more mesmerizing.

"Thank you, Emi." She said as the light grew more and more intense with each passing second. It was as if it was reacting to every word Sorophi is saying.

"I\'m feeling a lot better. I still want to know how mother died but, I\'m sure the truth will be revealed. However, I will definitely keep living and trying to smile as long as she\'s watching over me which is something I\'m sure she\'s doing."

The red aura was now covering every inch of Sorophi\'s body and extending beyond. It reached a point where it was as bright as the light in the room.

Elise blinked a few times in disbelief as if she couldn\'t understand what was happening. The same case was for Rin who was still frozen in his place with squinted eyes.

\'What\'s happening?\'

The only one who didn\'t seem confused was Emilia albeit she showed a degree of shock too. Her eyes flashed with complicated emotions.

"Sorophi… You, are you going to…"

The latter nodded her head and looked at her hands before tightening them.

"I think I might want to spend some time in my real form." She said.

\'Real form? What is she talk-\' Rin\'s eyes then widened as he remembered a small detail.

Sorophi\'s child form was merely a part of her ability. So, when she said \'real form\' she most likely meant her adult form that actually fit her age, right?

Watching with even more interest, Rin and Elise could only be curious about how Sorophi actually looked. In her child form, she was an extremely adorable girl with a doll-like body and face.

*Swish*

The red aura finally became brighter than ever to the point where it made everyone cover their faces and eyes. A few seconds passed before the light finally started vanishing slowly and they could finally open their eyes again to look.

The moment Rin and Elise\'s eyes landed on Sorophi, they froze in their places. Even though they had expected to see a drastic change, it still was impressive to see the final result.

The girl\'s noticeably small body was nowhere to be seen and in its place was a more voluptuous and developed body that could make any man\'s jaw drop to the ground. Her figure was so perfect akin to the work of a godly sculpture. Her long black hair now had a strong hint of red to it that added a sense of mysterious beauty to it. Her face was now more mature and her features lost that innocence she had in her child form.

She was now a more beautiful, more elegant, and more attractive version of her old self which made Rin\'s heart skip a beat.

However, for the most part, his heart skipping a beat wasn\'t because of her amazing beauty. Rin had been basically spending everyday with Elise and as far as things went, she was still the most beautiful woman he had seen if he didn\'t count Lili in the equation because of her status as a divine god and not a human. So, seeing Sorophi would\'ve made him blink a few times but that was it. The real reason for his reaction was her attire at the moment or to be more precise, the lack of said thing.

Because her clothes from before were made for children, the moment she changed form, those clothes were shredded to pieces which ended up leaving Sorophi basically fully naked from head to toe. Her voluptuous breasts, her flat stomach, and her plum legs were in full view for Rin to enjoy.

Opening her eyes, Sorophi looked down with a smile, seemingly enjoying the reaction of everyone present. She seemed in a good mood so her smile did contain some emotions like happiness. However, when she saw her naked body, her smile froze. Staying motionless like a statue for a good 3 seconds, she lifted her head up and looked at Emilia, Rin, and Elise.

"Mmm… I\'m sorry!" She said as she fell down to the ground and hugged herself. Her left hand wrapped around her big breasts, deforming them slightly, and her other hand went to cover her crotch. Her milky legs were now intertwined and squeezed together.

Sorophi didn\'t know that this seemingly protective gesture of hers only worked to make her look more alluring to the eye.

\'Sigh…\' Closing his eyes, Rin looked away with a small hint of red on his face. Even after this change, Sorophi still acted clueless just like in her child form. Maybe that change didn\'t affect her head and her personality.

"You idiot! How can you not think about whether your clothes can change size or not?" Emilia reprimanded her as she quickly pulled out a towel to cover her body.

"I\'m sorry, Emi!!" She screamed with a guilty look.

"There is no point in apologizing to me. Don\'t forget that there is a man with us here." Emilia pointed at Rin.

Elise also glared at him from the side. She looked clearly displeased by the fact that he saw a naked woman in front of him.

"Hey, hey! Why did this become my mistake now?" He asked.

"It\'s not your mistake indeed. But, why did you take a long time to avert your eyes?" Elise asked with a judging look.

"Sorry for not having the accustomed mind of a promiscuous man who sees naked women daily. Of course, I will need a few seconds to react." Rolling his eyes, Rin retorted angrily.

"As far as I can see, you enjoyed the sight, didn\'t you?" Elise pushed further with her sharp gaze focused on Rin.

"Well, I mean… I\'m a healthy young man so if I see a beautiful woman it\'s obvious that I will have some kind of reaction. There is no point in blaming me for enjoying what I saw."

Rin found no shame in the fact that he reacted positively to a sexy woman naked in front of him. He wasn\'t gay or stupid like most people would think. If he sees naked breasts and a plump butt and thighs in front of him then he will look at them for more than one second if the opportunity was present.

"You… Shameless." Elise muttered.

"It\'s the truth. Whether I\'m shameless or not is up to you to decide." Shrugging, he didn\'t pursue the matter any further and instead looked at Sorophi.

"So that\'s how you actually look, huh?"

"Yes…" Sorophi seemed oddly fidgety when she replied to him. It wasn\'t an uncomfortable look by any means but it was as if she was shy.

\'Well, considering the fact that she was naked a second ago, it\'s normal to feel shy.\' Rin didn\'t think much of it.

"But, that\'s weird… What kind of power can change someone\'s form?" Rin asked confusedly.

He had seen how Sorophi could change her teddy bear from one form to another and even make it look like a real bear.

"Sorophi has a rare ability that can\'t be categorized under any normal element. She can shapeshift anything in front of her to any form she wants." Emilia explained.

"..." Rin\'s eyes widened.

\'Shapeshifting? That\'s extremely strong. To have such strong effects.\'

Not only did she use this ability to create a scary monster out of a plushy but she also could change her appearance to anything she wants. It\'s not an exaggeration to say this was one of the strongest abilities Rin ever heard of.
