Dexter felt the pain, and he coughed blood out of his mouth. The bones cracked as they moved back to their original position.
Dexter's claws came out, and he tore the skin on his chest, gritting his teeth. He then located a few broken bones and forcefully removed them.
He could visibly see a new one forming slowly as he removed it. He let out a breath and looked at the bird that had crashed into the ground hard.
With its speed, the ground shook everything within a kilometer's radius. Dexter looked again and saw that his attack only cut into the bird but didn't sever the limbs as he expected.
The bird bled and walked towards the tree. Dexter looked at it, then raised his spear before pulling his hand backward.
Lightning suddenly wrapped around the spear, and then flames danced on it too, mixing in.
Dexter threw the spear towards the bird with force release, causing a loud booming sound to echo in the surroundings as the spear flew towards the creature.
The spear pierced its neck, and the bird fell to the ground as it breathed hard.
It looked back at Dexter, who was flying towards it, and let out another stream of flames to burn him, which he flew to the side to evade.
He blasted forward with force release and went towards the bird while using his flames to deflect its own.
As he got close to the bird, he jumped over it before giving it a heavy punch on the beak.
*BANG!!*
The bird slammed into the ground, causing debris to rise off the ground before falling back down.
Dexter panted as he tried to catch his breath.
He looked up and saw that the sun had already gone down, and he gazed over at his spirit energy.
\\[Spirit energy: 1560/10700\\]
\\[Stamina: 78/490\\]
Dexter chuckled as he sat down on the ground.
"I don't even know whether it's my spirit energy or my stamina that's making me feel fatigued. It should be my stamina, but it's not even too low."
This was another thing about using skills that were learned through the system. You won't realize you're getting tired until your stamina or spirit energy is very low.
He could imagine what would happen when his stamina hits zero. Paralysis, passing out...
He walked towards the bird. Touching its body, he could feel it vibrating as if it wanted to move, or as if it was scared.
'Wow, so many rewards.' Dexter thought as he began going through them.
'The fact that I got ten billion Heaven's Tower points is insane.' Dexter thought with a smile and he continued scrolling.
'Hm? Vampire primal awakening?' Dexter was surprised by this.
He just got another skill for entering the next level of a vampire, and he suddenly had another skill.
He hasn't gotten used to blood manipulation too much, and now there's already another vampire skill.
\\[Skill: Vampire Primal Awakening\\]
\\[Rank: Unranked\\]
\\[Description: Having an affinity is normal. However, this makes vampires able to enter a primal state, their original form where they take forms of demons. In this form, all physical stats are boosted by 12% and all elemental attacks are more powerful.\\]
Dexter was perplexed by the description. The boost in power was okay, but...
'Taking the form of demons...' Dexter thought about it hard. He had to ask Kila about it when he got back to camp.
Dexter shook his head as he looked at the tree behind him. He kept hearing a very low voice coming from it, and it's becoming louder now.
*Take the fruit*
The voice sounded again, and Dexter shook his head as he checked out the adaptation.
'I already have a wing adaptation; I guess I'll give this one to Kila.' Dexter thought.
In the next moment, a skeletal frame of a bat wing was up in the empty parts, fire suddenly blazed, completing the wing.
Dexter flew up, and he noticed that he felt lighter than when flying with the Wings of Fate.
He landed on the ground, reading the description.
\\[Adaptation: Blazing Wings\\]
\\[Rank: Sixth class\\]
\\[Description: A skeletal frame of the original wing, which is filled with flames that produce extreme heat.\\]
"Haha... Good, good." Dexter laughed as he saw the description. If not for the fact that the Wings of Fate automatically protect him when his life is in danger, then he would have switched it.
'I wonder why the wings of fate didn't react when the falcon did it's dive.' Dexter thought but he decided to leave it for now. Perhaps, there wasn't any life threatening danger.
[The wings of fate is reacting to the blazing wings. Fusion is possible]
