Chapter 74 Fire Gift Evolution

[Agility activated. Your movements have been increased by 103%]

Jumping out of the way, he narrowly escaped the wave of flames being thrown at him, falling on the ground and landing on his back. He looked up, seeing a set of sharp teeth coming right at him.

'For its size, it sure is fast.' He observed, grateful for his newly increased speed.

"What big teeth you have." He said, laughing at the sort of reference he was actually making. "I bet they are as cold as your heart, that's if you are allowed to possess one." He said while rolling out of the way of the attack.

[Strength activated. Your blows have been increased by 182%]

[Gift: Fire fist in effect]

Increasing his speed, he made a large floating fist made out of fire, large enough to compete with the size of its face.

Launching himself at the dragon, the fire fist striking its face, the flame dispersing upon impact.

Bam!

It made a loud crunching sound as it hit its face. The dragon's eyes lit up red as it started to rage.

Swiping at him, it's claws scratched the flesh of Nix's upper arm.

[Health level dropped by 30 point]

"Arrgh!" He yelled in pain, holding onto his arm. As his skin started to bleed.

'There is no way I'm going to lose to the likes of you, not now, not ever!' His eyes gleaming red, he felt a surge of anger within him.

He was yet to get rid of the mark imposed on him, there was no way he was going to accept defeat at the hands of a creature he was meant to tame.

[Trait usage: Rage in effect]

'Two can play that game.' He said in his thoughts, feeling a change in his strength, agility and fire power.

[300 Strength augmentation activated]

[300 Agility augmentation activated]

[Gift: Fire power evolution activated]

'Fire power evolution?' He repeated in confusion, as he watched a change happen to him.

A red like glow was seen coming out from his body, his wound began to rapidly heal until there was no sign of him ever sustaining any injury. In an instant, a torrent of flames erupted from his hands and shot forward towards the dragon.

With a loud roar, the dragon raised it's head and let out a bellow, the flames hitting the dragon's snout. As the flames hit the dragon's face, it let out a sharp cry.

Looking at his palm, he was as stunned at the amount of fire power he shot out. It all began to make sense how the trait usage augments certain parts of his stats.

The color of his flames had also changed from its usual blue to a red.

His eyes glanced over to his arm, the injury was also gone, this was beyond his expectations. But he began to wonder to what extent this trait could heal any injury he might sustain before this trait unlocks automatically.

The dragon flapped its wings, snarling at its perceived threat. Making its way into the sky, using the clouds as a makeshift concealment.

Whoosh!

'Here we go again.' Nix rolled his eyes at the trick these sneaky dragons only knew how to do.

Raiken, Rekor and Raz had all done the same thing as their last resort, making use of the free space in the air to their advantage, or so they thought.

[Would you like to evolve your gift to your advantage?]

[Y/N]

He stared at the interface in confusion, the words didn't even have much meaning in a sense.

Looking above, he could see how proficient this dragon was than the others when it came to making use of the concealment.

His eyes widened as he saw a wave of flame directed at him at great speed.

[Passive gift: Telekinetic field in effect]

Letting out a sigh, he was glad that this part of the gift automatically operates when faced with a danger directly aimed at him in close range.

Frowning, he could only count himself lucky he had such a passive gift, that attack was way too fast for him to react in time.

His hands clenched by his side, teeth gritting at his inability to rely basically on one gift at a time.

[Would you like to evolve your fire gift to your advantage?]

[Y/N]

The notification appeared in front of him again.

Cross popping veins appeared on the side of his head as it was interfering in him thinking of a plan to get this over and done with.

In a bid to satisfy his curiosity, he clicked on the 'Yes' option.

[Pick any of the evolutions: Manipulation that suits your choice would be in effect accordingly]

[Solid Flame manipulation]

[Liquid Flame manipulation]

[Gaseous Flame manipulation]

'What is this? Some kind of experiment and I'm it's test rat?' He stared wearily at the options he had in front of him.

If it weren't for the telekinetic field orbiting around him, he wouldn't be as laid back as he was at the moment. The dragon also seemed to be planning something, it was only best that he hurries up with his choice.

Clicking on the first option which turned hard like some sort of volcanic pattern, he felt something different about his gift.

[Ability to create solid objects or weapons from your flames]

'Solid fire weapons, huh?' He rubbed his chin at the wild thoughts that immediately came to his mind.

Clang!

He looked upwards at what caused the sound, and as expected, it was the dragon which had swooped down to test out with it's iron claws, the durability of the field.

Whoosh!

It dashed back into the concealment provided by the thick clouds.

Tut! Tut! Tut!

He shook his head with a smirk, even though it did leave a trailing crack on the field, it just showed him how strong this creature was to have caused such damage to it.

Nevertheless, he didn't need its shield anymore, he had just acquired a rare chance given to him by the system, one he was excited to make use of apparently.

'Let's see how you can hold your lot against me, silly creature.' His eyes gleamed coldly, ready to test out how the evolution of his gift could be.
