{A Rat Ghoul}
I woke up. I felt a headache for some reason and looked up.
"Still at the Pyra-" I said before I stopped. This time it was not a weird squeak like always but said something in the language that we love the most, English.
"I CAN SPEAK!!" I yelled this time, I had a lot of voice crack and sounded like I had a weird accent but I still spoke.
I found it weird that I could talk then I realized that I evolved in a demon, I looked at my body and touched my snout I still had my thick, black fur with a shade of grey all over my body and my pointy snout but the rest changed, I now have arms and hands, legs and feet, a neck, a humanoid shaped torso and last but not least a beautiful dingylong between my legs (I still had it when I was rat but now it was bigger). Well simply put I have a male humanoid body except the fur all over my body, my long tail and my rat head. I also got taller I now come up to the chin of an average sized zombie.
I tried standing up and nearly fell over so I tried balancing myself.
"Hah~ looks like I still need to get used to this body" I said. I think if I talk a lot I will be able to say words more fluently.
"I want to look at my status"

"HOLY SHIT!!" I yelled after looking at the window with some beautiful stats in front of me.
"These are some high stats" I said "Well if we take in to account the stat points that I got from my fight and the level up stats plus the stats that I got from evolving in to a higher being than a puny rat this should make sense... I think"
"So now where is my dagger it should be some where... here I found it!!!" I went over to my dagger to pick it up with my hands and swung it around a few times "This way feels more comfortable to use than swinging it around with my mouth"
"I want to check out how strong I got and lucky for me there is another corridor in front of me but l'm currently not in my top condition, the last fight thought me not to underestimate zombies" I started to look at something to eat, in other words a zombie corpse which were all lying around me covering up most of the ground.
I started munching in to one, the taste got better for some reason and my body doesn't hurt after eating this, probably because I became a ghoul. Well that's good I won't have to barf every time I eat this.
After eating the tasty corpse I got up, grabbed my trusty dagger and walked towards the corridor leading to another group of zombies "I'm ready now lets go!!"
This time I was more careful and made use of my assassination techniques as now I have a humanoid body.
I went behind a zombie and I sliced its neck and held the body then lightly placed it on the ground so it doesn't make any sound. I couldn't do this when I was rat because I didn't reach a zombie's neck and I could not move my arms to stop the body from falling.
I repeated this until the zombies noticed me. It took some time for them to notice me and when they did I stopped being sneaky and just went one slicing their necks and smashing their heads like a proper assassin would.
The fight wasn't much different from the last, the only differences were that I had a humanoid, did not get as tired and it was fun. Yes fun the previous ones were not fun because it was hard to fight as a rat and I was near death multiple times.
Some of you might be asking wasn't a battle junkie supposed to have fun if they are nearing death? Yes, but I'M NOT A BATTLE JUNKEY if I was battle junkey I would be a warrior not a rouge. I'm a killer who likes when I kill people because it gives me nice feeling, not someone who likes to have an adrenaline rush.
The fight went on. I did get some scratches here and there but they heal fast so it didn't bother me for some reason even though I killed a 1/4 of the zombie horde I still didn't level up it looks like I need to kill monsters higher than level 5 to level up.
As time went on the fight got harder "Hmm did they get stronger?" I took a quick peak at one of the zombies status and noticed that they were level 8 now "So the fight got harder" I took a few steps back and grabbed another dagger that I found lying around on the floor and got into the usual Thief class fighting stance that you see in animes and stuff then rushed at the and sliced the zombies mercilessly.
The blood was spilling out of a zombie's neck every time I swung my daggers some zombies didn't even get the chance to groan at me it kinda made me feel sad until I remembered what a grandmaster said in an anime 'Do not feel pity for the enemy or you be able to kill them huh? that doesn't sound right, well what ever it was similar.
- You levelled up to level 31
YES!! Finally it took some time. Then my strength went up you could barely notice it but it did.
{After a while}
"Whoo~ I finished I killed all of the zombies" I said "I feel like there were less zombies that before"
But then I stopped thinking about it and ate some zombie corpse.
When I was fighting my dingylong was moving around and it felt uncomfortable so I stripped a zombie off the rags that he was wearing and put them on. The rags were brown ad had blood stains on them but that didn't bother me.
"yay! shirt, pants and underwear acquired" I said I didn't have anything else to say after eating and that's when I noticed a giant golden door.
"Hmm... is this a boss room?"
