Struggles of a Dragon
{Edited}
Previously:
I start to panic as my magic slowly drains and at that moment, I could finally see the three adventurers. Thank God that my presence is fully hidden within this shadow, but this is not going to last long.
I then heard a message in my head...
[You have now gained the Passive skill: Calmness (F)]
It starts to ease my mind, so I start to think more rationally and decide what to do.
(Riza) - "Oh my god... There's a broken egg in the middle of the room"
Jean starts to pull out his sword, Riza her daggers, and Ellie her staff.
(Jean) - "I guess this won't be an easy in and out job" as Jean readied his sword.
(End)

___________________________________
Oh shit, my stats are not enough to be able to take out these guys. Given my current circumstances, I have been in here for around 5 minutes already and they are all walking around prepared to fight.
I used appraisal on my [Darkness Eater](SS)
[Darkness Eater] Rank SS
A skill that lets the user become and manipulate the darkness by absorbing the dark through contact or magic.
Holy crap, this is one OP as hell skill. If this says what it means then I am super strong in a dark cave, but the priest is using a really bright light which will be a huge problem.
I wonder what [Dragon Magic](SS) is.
[Dragon Magic] Rank SS
A skill only is given to pureblood dragons that allow the user to use skills only a dragon can use, like [Fire Breath] [Darkness Breath] [Frost Breath] [Dragons Might] [Meteor Crash] [Dragon Slash] ...
Okay okay, I get the point. My only way out of this is to escape or use some crazy-ass broken skill to take out these people.
Man, I wish I still had my pocket sand. I could blind them and run away, but I can't really run very fast with the way I am now.
Since I am a darkness dragon, I would assume my weakness would be the priest girl over there. She is already restricting my [Darkness Eater] with her light. If she gets near me, I think I will be done for.
Hmmm, [Dragons Might] sounds kinda cool. Let's try it out to see if it helps at all.
I use [Dragons Might] and exit my shadow to not consume any more magic. I take a look at my magic and it is already down to 196/600.
My magic goes all the way down to 52/600 and I start to panic, but I look up and see the adventurers on the ground, knocked out cold.
Well... I guess it went to the crazy-ass broken skill route. I hear a message in my head.
You Have Successfully Knocked out 3 Humans as they are Scared Shitless
I look closer and the man named Jean had pissed himself.

Oh my god, my level went from 1-10 instantly!
{Evolution Available} Level 10/10 Conditions Met
Hell yeah, I get to evolve already after beating 3 people without trying very hard! It's nice to know that I don't need to kill things to be able to level up. Defeating them seems to be enough unless I accidentally killed them.
Evolution Options:
*Evil Dragon (S)
*Small Darkness Dragon (S)
*Shadow Dragon (S)
____________________________
I guess I'll continue on my Darkness Dragon path.
"Select Small Darkness Dragon!"
My skin begins to shed and my body starts to throb. It hurts really bad, but this is nothing compared to getting hit by a truck.
My horns grew longer, my wings grew more refined and bigger, and my body lengthened. I kinda look like Spyro.
Let me check my stats.
"Status!"

Holy shit, my stats increased by a huge margin! Speaking of that...
Why the hell did my intelligence go up by 1 while my other stats went up by hundreds! This is ridiculous!
Where are my passive skills? I remember learning [Calmness](F). Let me try to appraise myself focusing on passive skills.
[Appraisal](S)!

I decide to head to the exit of the cave as I start my adventure as a dragon!
