I awoke from a night of sleep, it felt as if I had been sleeping for years on end, it felt as if I was constantly being Enveloped by a black curtain blocking anything that tried to make contact with me, however, once I opened my eyes, I saw a bright light, and the room before me looked like it was made out of Black Crystalized Marble, Everything was white the entirety of what I was seeing what white, it looked to be a white box, filled with marble floors, walls, and even the ceiling, this White marble had Cracks running across it as if a battle occurred here,
[Ding!]
[You have Received Random Loot Box]
I only get one loot box. One reward? Even thought they were weak I still killed them, is this the value of their lives? They must have been some fodder than….
How long has it been, it must have been a long time if I've gown this much, my old size was comparable to a small school bus but now, How big am i truly.
Everything looked ridiculously small compared to how large I've gotten!
I'm not sure why this happens, but whenever something changes, I feel the need to take a bath immediately! So, without thinking about it, I began to undress, taking off all of my clothes and shoes, and placing them neatly onto a chair nearby. Then I took off my underwear and put it aside as well since there's nothing more annoying than having your own smell linger around when you're trying to relax
Wait, Undress? H-huh when did I get a human body, is this one of the effects of the Evolution,
'Uh, how long has it been for me to look like this?'
Kamish couldn't fathom why he looked like this, he looked to be at least 15 or 20 years old, maybe older, Kamish wondered where Belersion disappeared to when he woke up he was surrounded by nothing, he was still inside the cave but instead of being greeted by the luxurious cave, he found a rundown Cave all the Pillars of gold, silver, and Valuables where gone anything that screamed luxuriousness was missing. He was also surprised to see Constant moss and fungi growing everywhere, it was as if it had been an extremely long time, the moss looked dry and dead, while the fungi were alive and active.
He moved forward to investigate further, and then he noticed that he wasn't alone, someone else was with him. His heart skipped a beat when he saw her, she looked beautiful, with long hair and a slender figure. She was wearing an elegant dress, which covered most of her skin. Her face was hidden behind a mask, and she wore gloves and boots, making it difficult to tell what race she was. But Kamis knew that he was staring, so he quickly averted his gaze. "Are you ok?" The woman asked, her voice soft and sweet, almost lullaby-like.
"Y...yes..." Kamish replied, his throat dry from Anticipation.
"What are you doing here, do you know what happened to the other Humans."
Kamish shook his head, unable to speak properly due to the shock.
"W-what happened to the humans?"
"They have entered into war, with the dragons, Dragon slayer magic, a magic made for killing dragons was made, giving the humans a chance to wipe dragons out, the dragons being greedy and thinking that humans are only food has caused the dragons and humanity to enter into a war, many soldiers died, everywhere has become a battlefield"
"W-wait, so the Dragons started a war?"
"The magic they created gave the humans the upper hand over the dragons, but not everyone agreed on the use of these new weapons, there were some who believed that the weapon should be destroyed before more lives were lost, and others believed that it must continue until victory can be achieved."
"But even with the loss of life and property, the number of casualties is far less than expected, since the majority of the deaths occur during attacks, rather than defense, the magical beasts seem to prefer attacking human cities, which causes much more destruction and damage, thus causing greater losses to the attackers."
"This war will go on forever unless something changes drastically, but how could that happen?"
'Great, somehow, I've been asleep for two or four years maybe even six, I have no way of honesty knowing, this could be bad, also did I reach dragon king level?, or is it the evolution I gained if not why did I gain a human form, from what I remember you either need to be a dragon king level, or above, to even transform, or polymorph into a human form.'
Kamish wanted to look at what he looked like in his Polymorphed form, so he went outside of the Cave and walked, Walked, an extremely long distance until he found a desolate lake that looked to be a freshwater Lake, Kamish sat down on a rock near the shoreline, looking around the area, seeing if anyone was nearby, but he didn't find anyone nor did he sense anyone, for some unknown reason he gain the Skill [Spirit Wisper]
his connections to Tiamat somehow made him related to spirits which, honestly made no sense as Tiamat had no relations to spirits, Kamish could listen to them, small balls of light varying in color floated next to Kamish's feet, and each ball was connected to another spirit, some of them were happy, while others were sad, but all of them were trying to communicate with kami.
"Hey! You can't just sit here and talk to us without asking permission!"
"Why would we ask your permission?! We are spirits! Spirits don't need permission from other spirits!"
"yeah whatever, let him do what he wants, I don't care, just keep quiet!"
"Sob sob*
"I am sorry! Please forgive me! I promise I'll pay you back!"
"sniffle"
"hiccup"
One spirit started to cry to the other, and then they both cried together, but I couldn't understand anything, the voices sounded muffled, as if I was underwater, I tried to speak but nothing came out, the spirits continued crying, and I felt tears flowing down my face...
Ignoring the spirits I decided to look at my reflection through the Water, i looked to be an average-sized young male, probably around 18 or 19, my skin tone was pale white, my hair was Fiery Red, short cut, similar to a military style, and my eyes were red, with vertical pupils, which stood out against the whites of my eyes, my mouth was full, and I had sharp teeth, I noticed something strange about my body, my muscles were clearly defined, I'm sure someone would notice my muscular physique right away, especially if they saw me naked.
Hmm, so, how do I proceed, I'm guessing the time I've been away or in my place it's been years, since Irene made Dragon Slayer magic, as I don't remember anyone else being able to create Dragon Slayer Magic, so I'm going to take a guess and Say Irene and Lina made dragon slayer magic, or they are nearing its completion but I could be wrong, but am I more fucked....
'Acnologia should be hunting dragons or nearing that stage right about now, the reason I know this is because of one simple reason the scene playing out in front of me is ridiculous...'

"ah"
anyhelp, p-please, anyone
I-is t-that a dragon
The villagers' screams were so loud that it was hard to hear anything else. The soldiers had no idea what they should do and didn't even know if there would be any survivors from this incident. They looked at each other with fear in their eyes as the beast roared again, its body covered in blood. It must have been injured by something because one of its wings fluttered weakly. The monster began walking toward them while dragging itself forward using only three legs... There! That's an opening!!
"Yaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!"
The hunters charged into action without hesitation. No matter how strong or powerful the enemy might be, they wouldn't let down those who needed help now more than ever before. This time, Estos was ready for it too. He quickly grabbed his bow out of thin air and took aim at the monster's head. If he could take care of the beast here, then maybe the village would still make it through this crisis alive... But just as he released his arrow...
He heard someone scream behind him. Someone screamed loudly enough that everyone turned around to see who'd made such a noise. And when they did, they saw two things: a young girl running away from her mother holding a baby on her back, and an elderly woman falling backward onto the ground after tripping over herself.
"It hurts...!"
"I can't see anything!"
"We're going to die..."
"I think it's broken."
"What are those things?"
"Where did they come from?!"
"Help! Please help!"
"Don't let go! Hold on tight!!"
"Why won't you wake up?! Wake up! Don't leave me alone again!"
more and more voices crept out of the villagers, but it didnt help the dragons, who continued to breathe fire onto the village. As the villagers screamed in horror, the dragon breathed out fire once more. the fire looked to be growing larger than ever before, causing panic among the residents. One villager grabbed a nearby axe and charged at the dragon, swinging wildly.
"a-anyone help"
"I don't want to be Dragon food!"
Estos felt like his heart was going to break. As the child ran off into the distance, the old lady stood up slowly with tears streaming down her face. She walked unsteadily toward where she thought the children had gone and called out, '
"You bastards! You little shits!"
The man who fell on top of the woman got up immediately but couldn't move far due to pain shooting through his leg. When the man realized that the hunter wasn't coming near, he tried yelling for help instead. „Please! I can barely stand, please come save me!" Estos knew he shouldn't go over there either. What kind of idiot would put himself in danger just for some random stranger? Yet...he found himself moving anyway. Why...? He wondered why he was doing this, and he didn't get an answer until he arrived at the scene.
The Dragon Breath attack caused the entire building to explode. The blast sent debris flying everywhere.
Terrified, the other villagers fled through the streets, desperately trying to escape the approaching firestorm. The dragon roared with laughter, as he watched the chaos unfold. He knew full well how weak the villagers were, and how easily they would flee if faced with such a powerful foe. most of these peasants were probably too scared to even try to take him down. Even when confronted with overwhelming odds, there was still some courage within them. But now, they had nowhere to run. The dragon smiled maliciously. His breath weapon had been released. Now, everyone was dead meat.
With a single swipe of its clawed forelimb, the dragon slashed through the roof of the nearest house. The roar echoed throughout the village, making all the residents scream. With another slash, the dragon destroyed the next building. And then the third. Soon, the whole village was reduced to rubble. The dragon laughed heartily as he surveyed his work. He loved destruction, especially human-made structures like these. Humans had built the city with their own two hands. Yet, it took just a moment for them to crumble under his claws. The dragon chuckled evilly. No matter what kind of monster he was, humans were always the same.
He felt pity for them. They were pathetic creatures who lived meaningless lives. They were not worthy of being called living beings. To the dragon, they were merely food sources, and nothing else. However, since the humans were already dead, they would provide excellent meals for later consumption. A delicious meal of charred flesh awaited him.
The red dragon had already finished devouring the first person. His stomach was distended grotesquely large, and it seemed like the creature hadn't eaten since yesterday morning. Its fangs dripped saliva, and its breath stunk. Even Jinwoo felt nauseated. In front of the dragon lay several people lying dead. A middle-aged man, a teenage boy, and an old man who appeared to be the farmer. Their bodies were mangled beyond recognition, and their faces showed signs of being torn apart. All that remained of these men and boys were piles of meat. It was difficult to tell which one belonged to whom.
This isn't right.
There was nothing left of the women except for scraps of clothing and bones. One of them had probably been pregnant. Her belly was bloated from the pregnancy, but it was now completely flat. The only thing remaining of the last female victim was her handbag, which had fallen next to her. Inside it were all sorts of personal items that most people never think about losing, including important documents and portraits.
Estos struck out at the dragon with his sword but failed miserably. The dragon swung its tail at him and knocked him flying across the field. He landed on his back, unable to move. The dragon stomped on him repeatedly. Each time it hit him, he felt like his spine would snap. At the same time, it opened its mouth wide and breathed fire straight at him. Just before it could finish burning him alive, he rolled out of the way. Although it was painful, he managed to survive thanks to his armor. However, the damage was done. He was exhausted from rolling around on the ground and could barely keep himself upright. Despite having survived, his stamina was almost nonexistent. He desperately wanted to sit down and rest, but he couldn't afford to stop fighting.
As he struggled to stay conscious, the dragon closed its mouth and flew closer to him. Was it going to breathe on me again?! He braced himself for another attack, but it stopped short of touching him. Instead, it jumped high in the sky and hovered above the battlefield. Then it dropped something down on top of the corpses. Something small and white—it looked like a piece of cloth.
BOOM!!!
Snow started to fall upon the village, and in each and every place where the Snow started to hit, ice started to form. Not long afterward, the snowfall intensified, covering everything in a layer of thick frost. Houses, trees, even the crops. Everything was frozen solid within seconds. The villagers' screams grew louder. They weren't used to seeing snow so early in the year. The sudden change also prevented the injured from getting any medical attention. People died because no one could get close to them to treat their wounds. Meanwhile, the dragon kept landing pieces of fabric on the dead bodies and freezing the whole area. Soon, the entire village became covered by layers of snow. This meant that the survivors wouldn't know how many more victims were buried beneath the surface.
"I-i will not die here, you hear me dragon!!!"
A cold sweat ran down his back as he watched the dragon. He clenched his fists tightly. If he lost consciousness, he might end up dying too. But he still couldn't let go of the hope that someone would find him eventually. Someone had to remember that he was here. No matter what happened, he refused to give up.
Estos struck out aiming for the dragon's head, hoping to kill it once and for all. He missed, though, and ended up cutting open his own arm. As he screamed in agony, blood gushed out and stained the snow below him.
Tears streamed down the young man's cheeks as he stared at his bleeding wound. He couldn't believe that this was happening to him after he'd worked so hard to make it home safely. I'm sorry...I can't do anything anymore.... He was tired. So very,
terribly, incredibly tired.
He didn't want to live any longer. He just wanted to lie down and sleep forever. The dragon approached slowly and then lifted him into the air. The pain was excruciating, and the young man squeezed his eyes shut tight. He tried to scream, but no sound came out.
"Crackle!!!"
Instead, his heart started to beat Faster, and faster, his body was starting to be enveloped by Lightning. It seemed as if there was an electric current running through his veins, causing his muscles to tense up. His breathing grew ragged. There was no doubt: that he was going to die soon. A strange feeling overcame him. What is this? Why does my chest feel lighter than usual...? Suddenly, his vision turned dark.
but he was still seeing, each and every sensation the ground was a current of electricity, so small that it was hard to see, but enough to make his body twitch. He felt as if he were being pulled toward the earth. When he reached the ground, his arms and legs flailed wildly, sending sparks everywhere. His feet touched the ground, it felt as if each and every moment he was being shocked, which caused him to convulse violently.
His body trembled uncontrollably. The young man fell onto the ground face first and continued to writhe. His hands moved of their own accord, grabbing hold of things they shouldn't have been able to touch. After a few moments passed, his limbs stopped twitching.
Estos struck out, lightning Engulfing his entire being there wasn't a place where Red Lighting was surrounded by him, it Convulsed with each step he took more and more, and Lightning started to form around him. It was like a living entity, following him wherever he went, wrapping itself around his body, his mind, his soul.
The dragon struck out with its claws, trying to take the hunter away. But when it did, the Hunter's shadow followed suit, striking back at the beast. Each time the monster attacked, Estos shot out bolts of lightning to counterattack. And whenever it made contact, the dragon recoiled slightly, making it look like it was moving backwards.
"HAHAHA, to think a mere human is doing this, I'll stop playing with my food I'm sorry melitalichata"
The Dragon spoke its firsts words since it arrived, but it didn't even consider this Human, anything else other than a source of food, it was already thinking about how to eat it, it hadn't considered the possibility of actually killing it, until now. Its body was already beginning to transform, its scales becoming harder, its skin tougher. It began to grow larger as well.
It had finally decided to attack.
"How dare you..."
"Use Lightning that Resembles Him!!!"
The dragon scorned the man while gathering mana around his mouth, Ice was forming, oozing off of his Mouth, creating a Current of ice in front of his maw, he opened his jaws wide, and a white Current of Ice shot out like a laser, each place that was touched by this laser of ice started to freeze over, everything from the grass to the trees, and even the sky above them.
"Boom!!!"
A giant pillar of ice rose high into the air, it looked as if the heavens themselves had fallen upon them, and the entire area was covered in a layer of frozen water.
Ice shards flew everywhere, hitting his body, and covering him completely.
The dragon roared, taking pleasure in the fact that he was unable to move. It knew full well that it could easily defeat the man; it simply chose to toy with him instead.
"You really are annoying."
Its tail lashed out, slamming into the side of the building next door, the whole structure shook, and part of it collapsed on top of the man, burying him alive under tons of rubble.
"MWHAHAHAHA it's been A while since I fought A Dragon King"
While laughing hysterically, Estos found a sword lying nearby and picked it up, it was a normal-looking weapon, but it wasn't something one would expect to find lying around here, it must have belonged to the person who lived there before, maybe he had been killed during the fight, or perhaps he was just careless either way, it was useless to the dead, so he Took it.
Swoosh!!!
Estos swung the blade, cutting through the frozen Water, freeing himself from the wreckage of ICE, he stood up and brushed some of the debris off of his clothes, he then walked towards where the man lay buried underneath all of that weighty stuff.
"ah it's good to be finally free, I wish I could have experienced this 2 years ago, but sadly I will not die here, i Can not Die here!!!"
Estos gripped the hilt tightly, preparing for the final battle against the dragon king, he had no intention of losing here, he would use his trump card, his ultimate skill, the last of the skills that he couldn't live without, he was going to use it right away!
"I'll show you what happens when someone tries to kill me!!"
He raised the sword over his head, ready to strike down at the dragon, he brought it crashing down onto the dragon, only to get hit in return...
But what greeted him next was a man?
"Hah! You? A Dragon King?
"Don't make me laugh. You lack even the presence to be considered a worm, let alone a king. To call you an ant would be flattery."
A single word was enough to send shivers running throughout the bodies of everyone present, including Estos.
What kind of person could say such things to a dragon?!
This Dragon was definitely stronger, stronger than any other person present.
That was why he felt Shocked that he was saying those words. But without any other opportunity, the man with Fiery red hair spoke once more.
"Human, be grateful. I shall lend my hand, this once"
"But do not mistake this for mercy or righteousness. No. It is simply because I cannot endure the sight of an arrogant, insignificant ant like this one, presuming to claim the title of Dragon King."
