'Another transformation skill?' Sabrina thought.
The frown on her face paired with her momentary silence made Pedro look from her to the transformation skill in her hands. Then, after a few seconds, Pedro scratched the back of his head whilst forcing out a smile.
'Could a player only get one transformation skill? Nah... That's impossible!' He thought.
When Sabrina gazed back at him, he was not able to hold back his curiosity and asked, "Is there a problem?"
"Problem? What do you mean?"
"I-I thought you weren't able to use the transformation skill."
Sabrina smiled and said, "Relax, my dear! I was just preparing myself before I use this... heartbreaking skill!"
Sabrina's cold and seemingly angry tone made shivers run down their spine. She wore a smile on her face, but... Her grip on the Nearis Paper was so tight to the point that it tore a few seconds later.
"Ah!" Sabrina uttered in surprise.
Pedro and Yojiro watched the Nearis Paper dissipate as they await Sabrina to tell them what she obtained. That said, a system notification rang on Sabrina's player interface, indicating what she obtained from the second random creature transformation skill that she used.
[Congratulations! Your Transformation Skill had evolved!]
[You have learned "Transformation 2: Pithecophaga Eagle" skill!]
[Skill: Transformation 1: Pithecophaga Eagle]
Rarity: Epic-rated skill
Skill Type: Active-Passive
Effects: Transforms User into a Pithecophaga Eagle.
A) While on the Pithecophaga Eagle form, the user would have ten times the amount of the current HP and other attributes as the original form of the user.
Once the HP in transformed form was depleted, the User will be reverted to its original form, with the same amount of HP before the transformation.
B) No time limit duration, and No cooldown.
[A Bird of unknown origin! Level two!]
~~~~~~~~~~
After seeing the notification, Sabrina flicked her tongue in annoyance. She expected to obtain a different transformation skill. However, her first transformation skill, the Pithecophaga Eagle, seemed to have taken an upgrade or a 'level up', instead of her getting another transformation.
On top of that, she was yet to try her transformation skill. She does not know what kind of bird the Pithecophaga Eagle was, and how it looked like. Hence, she felt conflicted.
Whether she would be happy that the cooldown and the duration limit of the skill were removed, or if she would be pissed after knowing that she won't be able to obtain a dragon transformation because the random creature transformation skill had simply made her first transformation skill evolve or level up.
She bit her lips and activated her transformation skill. In the next second, her body started to slowly grow larger while, at the same time, it started to form the shape of an eagle. Fortunately, Pedro and Yojiro were able to act quickly in response.
Yojiro carried the Flocoloso birds they were grilling, whilst Pedro carried the five sleeping beauties away from the gigantic eagle. Sabrina just kept growing even larger to the point that she was a few feet even taller than the trees.
The branch of the tree from where they sat was crushed into the ground. The trees near her were uprooted as they fell into the ground. While the eerie silence of the forest was broken with her shriek.
"Kwiiiiyak!"
When her transformation was complete, she towered around fifteen meters tall and had fearless eyes that stared towards Yojiro and Pedro.
Her gaze paired with her brown-colored and white-colored feathers gave her a beautiful and elegant but menacing vibe, making Pedro and Yojiro stare in awe. That said, they can't help but be cautious because she stared towards them as if they were her next prey.
"A Queen..." Yojiro murmured.
Truth be told, Sabrina's transformation was a monster that even Pedro was not able to encounter in his past life. However, the white-colored feather on her head that was topped with a few streaks of brown feathers made her resemble a bird that had a crown. Thus, it gave out the impression that Sabrina's transformation was a royalty of some sort.
"Kwiiiiyak!" She shrieked once more.
Yojiro stood in bewilderment as his hand, naturally, landed on the handle of his Katana. On the other hand, Pedro exhaled heavily as he wore a ring and said, "At least... Give us a warning next time!"
Sabrina shrieked, angrily, in response. But this time, Pedro was able to understand what she said.
"How am I supposed to know that my transformation would be this big?"
Pedro laughed in response to the point that tears of joy had started to came out from his eyes. Yojiro was confused even further by Pedro's laugh. That said, Yojiro eased a little bit because of Pedro's comfortable demeanor.
That said, before he could utter a word, Sabrina made another shriek, saying, "Why are you laughing?"
Not wanting to anger Sabrina even further, Pedro calmed himself--wiping the tears on his eyes, and said, "It's nothing! I just didn't expect that you'd transform into something that was this big. I mean... Look at you! You're almost a third of the size of my dragon form."
Sabrina closed her eyes, momentarily, as she shook her head. Then, she said, "The size does not matter! What's important is that my transformation skill evolved and had no cooldowns and duration limits, Hmph!"
"Eh..." Pedro could only stare at the giant bird as it averted its gaze--opposite their direction, and stretched it's ten feet long wings. Then, the ground started to shake as she started to moving around, and even occasionally flapping her wings--trying to fly.
At this moment, Lony and Roval had 'unfortunately' awakened from their sleep. Their eyes seemed like it was about to pop out from its sockets the moment their attention was shifted to the giant bird that was several meters away from them.
"Holy shit!" Lony cursed.
"A-A raid boss?!" Roval added.
They could only stare towards Sabrina out of fear. And after a few seconds of silence, Pedro chuckled and said, "Raid boss? What are you saying?! That's Gentle Breeze... Our guildmate."
Lony and Roval glanced towards Pedro who raised three of his fingers and added, "Rank three, remember?"
"Eh?!"
Lony and Roval were at loss for words as they glanced back and forth towards the smiling Pedro and Sabrina, and was filled with disbelief.
"Eeeeeeeeh?" They cried, consequently annoying Arvedar, who had just woken up and was still rubbing his eyes.
"Noisy as ever!" Arvedar grumbled. But soon, he realized that the ground was shaking. Thus, making him follow the gazes of Lony and Roval.
"What the--!" He cursed as soon as he saw the giant eagle.
