Misfortuned

Here I am sitting on the dead body of the boss, or whatever it used to be in this dungeon, as I hear the sound of the system.

[You have defeated Xago the boss of the dungeon]

[The dungeon will no longer spawn Orcs]

[Spawning of Imp initiated]

[Host does not meet the required rank]

[Spawning delayed]

What does that mean?

Imp? Why is it spewing Imp now? And what rank do I have to be to meet the required rank?

Explain, please…..

[The host needs an army to conquer the world]

[Required rank of the host is Elite]

[Dungeons conquered by the host will spawn monsters that will follow the command of the host]

[The rank of the dungeon conquered will determine the type of monster spawned]

Whatever, there's a long way to go before I reach that… For now, let me pray for my lost right hand...

a few hours ago.

I was dodging and playing with the boss by spamming my dash skill when finally, after some time, it fell on his knees. The effects of biokinesis were superb. It did its job perfectly.

All I needed to do was evade the boss's attack and make contact with any part of its body to activate the skill.

It fell on its knees, dropped both of its great axes and breathed in slowly as if trying to reminisce about its life.

Who told you to underestimate me? Now look at you, you didn't even manage to hit me once.

"Don't worry, I will end your life in one blow."

Although I was sure it would at least take two attacks, I wanted to sound powerful - even till the end.

I went towards it slowly and steadily, it did not try to do anything.

Using dash, I rapidly struck at his neck using amplify, enhanced with weak point, as my claws went through his neck and could be seen on the other side.

-970

I thought that everything was over and that the boss was dead.

But I found it odd when the system didn't inform me of my kill...

As soon as I tried to take back my hand, the boss as if seemingly coming back to life, used all his strength to bite down on my arm and tear it off my shoulder.

"URGhhhhhhhh!"

It hurts!!

I could feel the pain as the muscles on my arm were forcefully ripped off with such force, I cried for the first time I came here in this world. I didn't even notice I was crying; tears came pouring out as I screamed in pain.

Soon after a feeling of hatred came upon me, I momentarily forgot about the tormenting pain as I looked at the mocking face of the boss.

It was already dead, but it was mocking me for my foolishness. I was overconfident yet again.

When will I learn?

I ripped off the cloth of the boss to tie up my arm, my arm was ripped off, but miraculously the bleeding has already stopped. The system was doing its work perfectly.

To satiate my anger, I picked up the axe the boss used and chopped him into pieces from head to toe. With blood covering my whole body, I sit down on pieces of what used to be the boss of this dungeon.

I acknowledged the fact that I am hot-headed, but how do I change this? Is there any skill that will make me smarter? System?

[Yes]

Really?

[It is currently not available ]

Did you say yes to make fun of me with your fouling system? Kicking me while I'm down? Is that how we are gonna do this?

Now that I think about it, can I still use gluttony on the boss in this state?

Gluttony!

[Strength increased to 50]

[Stat gained reduced due to host being of lower rank than target monster]

[100 Aura gained]

[756 more needed for the host to evolve]

Phew! It worked… at least.

I'm emotional, it hasn't been easy. No, it was easy, but because of my stupidity, I made it way harder.

Wait, I didn't notice since I was too emotional. Ahem. I gained 100 auras from the boss, how is that possible?

How long till I heal my arm?

Did I phrase that right? Nope, system, how long till I regrow my arm?

[14 days]

I feel like crying again. The feeling of not having an arm is upsetting even as a demon. I feel like I am not me anymore as if something is missing. Well, my arm is missing, but yeah. It's like that.

Can I upgrade my body system?

[Body upgrades will be available after another evolution]

I see, so I get upgrades on my body every other evolution. Forget it! Check the status!

Stat point :1

My attack has increased a lot more than I thought, actually. I believe I can one-shot bosses of Elite rank easily now. Hehe, enough hanging on to what has happened. It's time to think about the future.

Yes!

My strength has grown by leaps and bounds; I have doubled my strength stat, which, after using amplify and enhance, will hit for huge damage.

Damage… Why is it that monsters are taking damage like those in the games I used to play? They take damage... How is it possible?

[The host is the only one who can see the damage done]

[It is done so to make fighting easier for the host by the system]

I get it now. I would have probably believed it was all a game if you hadn't explained it properly, system.

Thanks for your support!

[Guide quest completed-Conquer one dungeon]

[Generating skill rank]

[Received Battle Honed>Blessing of Talent(Unique)]

Holy smokes! A unique-rated skill for clearing an uncommon dungeon?! Is this plot armour?

I WILL TAKE IT!

[Blessing of Talent- Passive skill, the host will learn and adapt to anything faster,]

Such a simple description, but the potential behind it is endless. With this, I will grow even faster than ever. Who dares stand in my way?

No time to sit here. I activated stealth and returned on my way back to the dragon's egg. It's been three days since I left, and I wonder if anything happened to the corpse of the dragon.

The mother dragon won't be waiting for me, will it?

Nothing happened along the way, although I stumbled upon a few common monsters that I ignored since I had no use for them.

I did use stealth and killed one for food.

[Lesser Cerberi-Common]

[Lowest class monster of the Cerberus family, only has a single head and relies on ambush to hunt prey]

It looks tastier than anything I have eaten, I guess, basically a dog…..ew urghhh.

I shouldn't have thought about it at all.

I climbed up the wall as I used to and went inside the egg after checking that no other monsters were seen.

The corpse of the dragon was still here. All along, I was wondering if gluttony would work on the dragon. One way to find out.

Gluttony!

[Failed]

Well, I doubted it. Even using it on an elite monster gave me reduced stats. For the next two weeks, I'll make this my camp until I heal my arm.

I can go down from time to time to hunt for food and increase my aura. But I don't plan to venture too much to places I have not been to before. After all, I am one arm less than usual.

Now that I have settled down, let's see what that dragon blood can do.

[Three drops of dragon blood, does the host want to consume them now]

Yes! Do it.

A line shone as a small glass container dropped from out of nowhere onto my hands as it slipped and-

Crash!

That did not happen, it did not break. Thankfully.

I opened the lid by holding the container with my left arm and biting the lid off.

Gulp...

[Consumed Three drops of Dragon's blood]

Hmm? Did nothing happen?

That's strange; I thought I was going to grow dragon wings, regenerate my lost arm, and become strong as hell.

Well, that was disappointing.

[Dragon-related trait added to every evolution path of host]

It seems like I will see the results when I evolve.

Suddenly, I felt a tremor. The egg was shaking—not by itself but due to something else.

and it seemed to be increasing ever so slightly. I looked down through the opening of the egg, and what I saw surprised me.

Monsters of different types and forms were going in one direction in a group without fighting against each other; I could see small monsters being trampled by the bigger ones, but it was not on purpose. I can sense the urgency of these monsters…

Is something big gonna happen soon?
