Listening To Instincts

Lukas' body crashed against the rocks of the mountain, the impact making him drop the dagger in his hand. He winced hard as his body thudded into the ground, but he pulled himself up and searched for the dagger in hand.

'Was it all my imagination? Maybe? Probably—there." Lukas swiped up the dagger and then went into a defensive position.

The wyvern shook its head from side to side, the impact of crashing into the ground also leaving it dizzy.

Lukas' recovery speed was better, and yet he there was an instinct within him that told him that it was better to hold his ground than attack ruthlessly.

"Hey, are you intelligent? How'd you change into that?" Lukas asked.

The wyvern let out a shrill sound, glared at Lukas and then drew itself back into the air again, taking flight and not attacking him again.
