Ved busted out of the egg. Then he swam out of the hole and flew out of the sea, he continued rising up to the sky. The air exploded around him and sonic booms echoed for tens of kilometres. His body cut through the clouds like an arrow then he stopped and floated above the sea of clouds. His vision was filled with white fluffy clouds for as far as he could see. He felt peaceful for a moment, he had finally achieved his dream of flying. It had been so long since he reincarnated, he had really come a long way. ’ It is more beautiful than I expected, I feel like a princess swimming in cotton candy, all I need is a winged unicorn and a tiara.’ he laughed at his own thoughts. Then he used his soul sense to check his body and what he saw left him even more satisfied. He had grown larger ofcourse but his body was also very different now than it was before. It was more imposing and majestic. His scales were so dark they seemed to absorb the light around them. His claws were as sharp as spears and his teeth as long as swords. Spikes ran across his spine and ended on the tip of his tail. He could feel his lightning dancing through them. It was more concentrated there than the rest of his body. Speaking of lightning, he could feel his normal blue lightning across his entire body. His every cell generating a charge but the most surprising thing was the purple lightning, it was less than the blue lightning and his body was generating it very slowly. But he had a feeling it was stronger, much stronger than the blue lightning. However the most glaring change was the pair of giant black feathered wings on each side of his body. The wings were connected at a single point on his spine, lightning ran through them. He had perfect control over his wings like they were always a part of him. He could clearly feel every single part of them, the somehow hollow bones, the black feathers as sharp as blades and as strong as metal. Also, his right arm had regenerated. He moved it a little and he was happy to know that he was still able to use it as effectively as before. He thought after all this time without it, he would’ve forgotten how to use it and he would need some training to get used to it again. Then his soul sense entered his body and checked his insides. There were changes there as well. All of his organs had regenerated, including the trait organs like the poison sac and web sac. Even better, those two organs had grown stronger. He had a feeling his poison and web had become much stronger than before as well but he would need to test them. However the most glaring change was his heart or rather hearts. He had four hearts now which was a pleasant surprise. He thought he would only have three hearts like the squid but he was wrong. He still had his original heart on his chest like before. Unlike humans, his heart was directly on the centre of his chest, the second and third were placed on each side of his body, next to the ribs and below the wings. The fourth was exactly where the tail met the body. Each pumped rivers of blood needed to keep his gigantic body working. The hearts themselves were gigantic, everything about him was huge. He had a vague feeling that the hearts did more than just pump blood but without testing he couldn’t be sure. After checking his body he decided to check his status but before he could he was met with a system notification and decided to check that first. ( Congratulations on your successful evolution host. I look forward to your future growth.) It was just a congratulations from the system. Ved then got confused, that notification sounded like the system was excited? And it referred to itself as I rather than just system which was rare. ’ Status’ he whispered in his head. Name: Ved Zhakrii Follow current novels on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵 Species: Sky Thunder Wyvern (27 years/ 6000 years) ( 17m/40m) Low Heaven Grade Abilities( 4/4): Trait Assimilation, Soul Force, Aspect Intergration, Ignition Traits(8/11): Poison secretion, Herculean strength ( 600x), Aquatic, Flash (500x), Iron Scale ( 35 000x), Web Secretion, Electric Discharge, Regeneration Evolution points:( 1,002/ 80) Ved got excited, he had grown much stronger as well. Even his two body enhancing traits had grown stronger. But then he got depressed when he saw how many points he would need for his next evolution. As a rank 4, the amount of points he could get from lower ranked beasts would be ridiculously low, add him having a heaven grade bloodline to it then he was really in trouble. He sighed and lamented the trouble ahead of him. Then he was confused by the traits slot again. On his last evolution he only got two slots. ’ Does the number of slots increase as I grow stronger?’ he immediately dismissed that idea. It made no sense since he got three slots on rank 2. No matter how much he racked his brain he couldn’t figure it out so he stopped thinking about it and accepted things as they were. But this also made him happy, three slots meant he could add three possibly powerful weapons to his arsenal, that was a good thing. He had also evolved into a wyvern which was confusing to him because no matter which myth or tale, wyverns only had four limbs. Two hind legs and two front wings which they can also use to stand like legs but they were still wings, unless he doesn’t remember things correctly. But he didn’t look like that at all. He still had his four legs and then two wings which made six limbs like a dragon. Not to mention the wings were not leathery like that of wyverns at all. He assumed the Sky Thunder was because of his lightning and wings. Ved didn’t focus too much on that, maybe the myths or historical records got it wrong. Maybe there are different types of wyverns, he didn’t know. He was just glad he was close to becoming a true dragon. Then he checked his new ability. It sounded powerful which made him excited so he chose to check the skill definition. It was very different from what he had expected but it was better, much better. ( Skill definition: Ignition- 1- Burns the vital essence of host to increase his physical attributes by 2 times. 2- Burns soul essence to increase the strength of host’s soul by 2 times.) Ved could barely control his excitement. He had no idea what vital essence or soul essence were but the ability sounded powerful. ’ I just need to ask that old spear what.... huh? old spear.’ he had completely forgotten about that.
