Lord Evolution: Starting With SS-rank Skills

They looked amazed as they gazed ahead. Their eyes were wide with wonder.

"T-This!"

"This is amazing!"

"Lady Riela has done it again!"

The women let out amazed gasps.

Since their backs were turned to Rowan and they were many in number, standing at the entrance, Rowan couldn\'t see what had amazed them. Curious, he rushed towards them. His heart quickened with anticipation.

He made his way through their midst. They didn\'t seem to notice him.

The women were so amazed that they even failed to notice his presence and greet him.

After pushing through, Rowan\'s eyes took in the scene, and they widened. He was astonished by what he saw.

"Magic!" Rowan exclaimed, truly surprised.

Not far from him, Riela stood, eyes focused on her outstretched hands. Hovering above them was a small ball of warm and pure white glow.

The ball of light wasn\'t stable, it seemed to be flickering, probably because Riela hadn\'t mastered it yet.

Riela heard Rowan\'s voice and quickly turned to him with a smile on her face.

"Rowan... look, I activated my first spell alone!" Riela said, smiling. She sounded really proud as she showed Rowan her magic power.

Rowan was still stunned and couldn\'t reply immediately. He struggled to find words.

Although Rowan was not a mage, he was aware of how rare and powerful light magic is. It is one of the divine elements!

Also, the fact that Riela was able to form a spell without the help of a tutor could only mean that she was truly blessed with magic.

Or did she really do it herself?

What if the goddess of creativity helped her? Rowan wondered.

But this made Rowan somewhat confused—everything about Riela had been taking the right turn in the last few months. She had become the disciple of a god, awakened a powerful skill, and now she was a mage with a rare and almost impossible level of talent.

Rowan had thought of himself as the protagonist in the beginning, but now he was having a little bit of doubt.

The ladies around were still looking at the light ball in Riela\'s hands while voicing their astonishment.

"Riela, this is amazing!"

Rowan finally spoke up with a sincere, proud smile on his face.

Riela\'s smile widened.

She couldn\'t focus on the spell anymore, and it went out. The light faded gently.

She immediately ran to meet Rowan and hugged him happily.

She told him about how she was able to activate the spell.

Just as Rowan had predicted, she had a special discussion with the goddess of creativity, Laverena, who explained the basics of spell manifestation to her.

According to her, Laverena only explained the concepts and basics of spell manifestation. She was able to use what she had learned to activate her first spell.

Rowan was surprised and envious at the same time.

If only he had some goddess beside him, he would have achieved faster progress towards his goals.

"Riela, you are really talented and precious. I am sure Dragun would be shocked beyond imagination when he returns and finds out about your amazing achievement," Rowan praised and patted her hair.

Their short display of affection made the women in the room somewhat jealous and happy for Riela at the same time.

While Rowan spoke with his wife, he checked her character status.

A new section had been included in the character status, containing the spells she had mastered.

A brief description of the spell was also revealed with a brief message at the end.

"I can copy spells too, this is awesome!" Rowan thought.

He wasn\'t aware of this, but seeing this made him happy.

He wouldn\'t have to waste time in the future learning spells if he could copy them.

Sadly, he could only see the spells of the characters he was linked with, and among them, only Riela possessed magic.

At that moment, a plan appeared in his head, but he didn\'t think about it too much.

"Riela, I have acquired the sewing machines you requested," he said to Riela afterwards.

Riela\'s eyes lit up immediately, as did the other ladies in the room.

"Can we see it?" the ladies requested curiously.

Riela had already informed them of the machines that could make their sewing more than ten times faster. Thus, they were naturally curious to see this miraculous machine.

Rowan observed their reactions for a few seconds before bringing out the sewing machines from his inventory.

The sewing machines appeared out of thin air and landed softly in the free spaces in the room.

The eyes of everyone widened immediately as they witnessed this.

Their amazement was not from the sewing machines appearing out of nowhere but from the sight of them.

The sewing machines were unlike anything the women had ever seen. Each machine had a smooth wooden frame with delicate carvings along the edges. The iron parts gleamed, reflecting the soft light in the room. The pedal at the base looked sturdy yet easy to press, and the needle mechanism was intricate but approachable.

"It\'s so beautiful."

"It looks like a work of art."

Riela stepped forward, her eyes wide with amazement.

She ran her fingers gently over the machine\'s surface, feeling the fine craftsmanship. "Rowan, this is incredible," she said softly. "I\'ve never imagined a tool like this."

Rowan smiled and told Riela to try it out first.

He taught her how to use the sewing machine to avoid any sort of accident.

After receiving Rowan\'s short lesson, she took a seat in front of one of the machines. The other women gathered around her, their faces full of anticipation. She placed a piece of fabric under the needle and pressed the pedal cautiously. The machine hummed softly as the needle began to move up and down, stitching the fabric smoothly.

Gasps filled the room immediately.

"It\'s so fast!" one woman exclaimed.

"And the stitches are so even," another noted.

"This will change everything, we can create so much more in less time," Riela said with so much joy in her voice.

She continued to guide the fabric, becoming more comfortable with each passing moment. The other women watched closely, excitement building among them.

"Can I try next?" a young woman asked eagerly.

"Of course we\'ll all have a turn. Soon, we\'ll be making the finest garments anyone has ever seen," Riela replied with a smile.

Rowan felt a swell of pride as he observed them. The sewing machines were already bringing happiness and hope to the village. He knew they were taking a big step forward, considering the cold and rainy season was fast approaching.

"Thank you, Rowan, this means so much to all of us."

Rowan nodded and smiled, "I\'m glad you like them. I can\'t wait to see what you\'ll create with it."

The women spent the rest of the afternoon experimenting with the machines. Laughter and chatter filled the room as they discovered new techniques and shared ideas.

Rowan stayed with them and observed them getting used to the machines in a short amount of time.

Riela discussed with the women their schedule for tomorrow before meeting Rowan as they returned to their home.

Rowan wasn\'t bothered about someone coming to steal the sewing machines since the village was almost in the middle of nowhere. Even if they did try to steal them, how would they move them or even know how to use them?

However, even though he wasn\'t scared of someone stealing them, he still asked some soldiers to guard the place.

On their way home, Rowan received an unexpected notification.

DING!

[ Linked character (Ren) has awakened.! ]
