Chapter 12 - Evil Dragon (Edited)

[Concerning the evolution form of some monsters]

Hmm?

[[Small] doesn't mean that it's on the way of evolving, it's used for the species that will stop growing at that size limit]

[Although status are raised quickly for the [Small] group, the number and ability of the former's evolution is inferior compared with the [Baby] group]

I see, so [Small] is a no, no. I aspire to the top, I can't stay behind by choosing the wrong evolution.

[The [Kid] group is used as a higher rank of the [Baby] group, but it's not special.]

[Although the evolution of the [Kid] group is narrowed first, stable evolution is guaranteed first because of that]

Ok, Ok.

The voice has stopped speaking. Wait, why doesn't it say anything about Child Dragon? Well... I guess it has to be similar to the Kid's, probably.

Well, why don't I ask him directly about the different developments? Since the Little doesn't interest me, and Kid Dragon sounds very P.u.s.s.y, I'll ask about the other two.

Hey, God's Voice. I want to hear the details about [Kid Marbled Dragon] and [Evil Child Dragon].

[ [Kid Marbled Dragon : Rank D+] ]

[A dragon that leads to mutation. Its skin has a water drop shaped pattern]

[Magical power is higher than normal dragons]

Looking at it in long terms, I also think this seems good.

I am somewhat intrigued by the mutation.

[ [Evil Child Dragon: Rank D+] ]

[The first step of a wicked dragon spreading evil. However, it's still slightly on the wrong path, and it's possible to turn back]

[Although there have been occasions where highly intelligent ones have used [Art of Human form] to descend into human habitation, most do not do a decent job]

Oh? If it's [Art of Human Form]?

Can I become human? The name of this evolution is a bit twisted, it talks about evil and all that. But it seems I can go back to the next evolution, so I can choose it without any problem.

Art of Human Form. This skill interests me very much. But come to think of it, it's not a skill that's 100% necessary right now.

I mean, I miss my human form, but not to the point of losing my reason to choose an option that may not be the best.

So, Evil Dragon or Marbled Dragon.

Marbled Dragon has greater magical power than normal dragons.

But something is bothering me. [God's Voice] He warned me while showing me Evil Child Dragon that if I chose that option I could go back.

He didn't tell me the same thing about Marbled Dragon.

Can't I go back if I choose this option?

That throws me back a little bit. I'm looking for the best option with the most potential, and a mistake here could be fundamental in my future development.

Besides, this dragon is only superior to normal dragons. From the description of the system, Evil Child Dragon is not a normal dragon at all.

I'm going to choose the safe option.

I evolved into the evil child dragon.

My body that looked like a baby's figure becomes thin, and the wings on my back grow too.

And then, my scales are eroded by black pigments rapidly.

Hot, my eyes are somewhat hot, but is this okay!

My eye level changes.

The height that was around 60cm until now grew to nearly 2 meters.

[[Evil Child Dragon] is evolved from [Baby Dragon]]

[Characteristic skill [Flight: Lv 1] was obtained]

[Characteristic skill [Darkness attribute: Lv –] was obtained]

[Level of characteristic skill [Dragon's scale] was increased from 1 to 2]

[Resistance skill [Resistance to darkness attribute: Lv 1] was obtained]

[Due to the title skill [Son of Dragon King: Lv–], all resistance skills of less than Lv5 possessed is raised]

Oh, that's not bad. I've earned the dark attribute, and it looks like I can fly now.

[Normal skill [Baby breath: Lv 2] was converted to [Breath of Darkness: Lv 1]]

[Normal Skill [play-biting: Lv 1] was converted to [Dark fang: Lv 1]]

[Normal skill [Numbing darkness claws: Lv 1] obtained]

Have my skills evolved too? Not bad, not bad. It doesn't seem to be that bad of an evolution. I was a bit backward as it was only D+ while there were others of C-, but it seems that this evolution has a lot of potential.

[Level of normal skill [Status inspection] increased from 2 to 3]

[Level of normal skill [God's voice] increased from 2 to 3]

[Details of your skill can now be examined]

This is pretty convenient. With this, I can answer any questions about my abilities.

[Level of title skill [Path of Evil] is increased from 1 to 2]

[Skill title [Evil Dragon: Lv1] obtained]

Sometimes I love you, sometimes I hate you...

Goddamn goddess...

Well, it looks like I'm gonna have to go the way of the evil dragon.

...

...

Let's see my new status...

‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

How ironic it is to see the skill [Tiny hero: Lv 1] next to the skill [Path of Evil: Lv2]. Apparently, the first one is a skill I got by risking my life to save the human.

.....

Now, where is the art of human transformation?

.....

Well, come to think of it, I would have chosen this evolution anyway. In my opinion, the others don't even come close to matching this one.

Do I have to go the way of the evil dragon? I don't care, if this way I can become the strongest, then I'll keep walking on this path.

Kid marbled dragon looked good as well because of the stronger magical power and that, but the mutation doesn't sound too good to me. I don't want a mutation, I want to stay being a Dragon.

Moreover, the system hadn't told me about recovering in the next evolution if I chose Kid Marbled Dragon.

This variation would have given me more magic power, but... I didn't use the magic before the evolution!

----

Well, what do I do now? Start leveling up again? Now that I'm back at level 1, my stats are lower than my previous maximum level. I guess my power's down about 10 levels, give or take.

God's voice said earlier that I can see the details of my abilities. I'm going to do that for now.
