[Evolution complete]
[You are now a Draco-Human]
'Huh,' I thought as I woke up. I didn't feel different. I checked my status screen. The only thing that changed was that it had a new line.
Race: Draco-human
What does that mean? Am I not human? Am I half-human? seventy present? Well, it doesn't really matter given that by now I don't really look human.
Scratching my head I stand up and stretch my muscles. Several loud pops could be heard from my powerful and very large body. Not really having anything planned for the day I just go out hunting.
After 'hunting' a couple of cyclops, [Roar(Common) 31%], I found myself in a relatively precarious situation. In front of me was Luke, and from what my senses were telling me he was very strong, looking at me with peer astonishment and on the verge of laughing. Bewildered as to why he looked so relieved I asked him. His response was to start laughing. Which only made me more confused.
After Luke stopped laughing explained that he had gotten a report that I was a boss monster. Can You believe the absurdity of that? I would never hurt a human. People these days always looking for the worst. Just because I'm over 30 feet tall, covered in scales, with a body that a pro-wrestler would be jealous of, and can launch fire out of my mouth doesn't make me a monster... wait. Am I a monster?
Na, a real monster would be um, like, um, really big? Ok so I'm pretty much physically a monster but that won't stop me from doing my civic duty of hunting, I mean fighting monsters.
After that internal crisis was over Luke first thanked me for helping out by taking care of the local monster population. He then asked me if I wanted to fight a really strong monster. He had me at fight.
Luke had expanded why we were fighting on the way over. So apparently to make a village you needed to complete a trial, you had one month to complete it. You could try it again after a month but each time you failed you would lose out on some systems you would have to earn back. On top of that, the first village to be formed would upgrade to a town and all the benefits that bring.
Luke then explained how because he was a hero the trial was extra hard and that it was pretty awesome that he 'ran into me' as I could help him finish the fight today. We found the trial boss not long after.
Now going back up to the present of me getting kicked 50 into the air while luke got punched 10 feet into the earth. This fight is not going well.
We're fighting something Luke called a baby djin. I thought it would be easy cuz it was a fucking baby. I was wrong.
It looked like a blue two-year-old as it floated about 3 feet off the ground.
Back to the past, Luke and I both agreed to launch our strongest attack at the same time to hopefully end this early. I charged up my Breath of the Wyvern(Epic) and Luke put his hand so there was a triangle between his fingers. I could swear I had seen something like that before but couldn't put my finger on it.
Once we were ready we unleashed our attacks, mine a big bar of fire and Luke's a pencil-thin blast of some kind of hard light? It didn't matter though right before they hit the djin a barrier flowed around it forming a bubble. My fire only washed over the bubble before Luke's spear dart thing punched right through it.
If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
After both attacks landed on the djin we thought it was over. Nope. The djin only had some minor burns and a hole in its left hand. It then preceded to point at use before two fucking lighting bolts zapped out of its finger and into both me and Luke. Then it pointed up, Luke jumped backward while I charged ahead. Pillars of earth erupted out of the ground, broke the sound barrier, then one each rammed into of us. Luke got launched back like a cannonball while I got launched 50 feet into the air.
Now that we've caught back up, it's time to kill this overpowered baby. As I'm getting launched into the air, I'm able to get out a Breath of the Wyvern(Epic). Luke must have done something as beams of light from all around the djin start firing into it. Both of our attacks hit a new shield the just sprang into existence, this time without the piercing attack they wash harmlessly over the shield doing little to no damage.
Doing some quick math I find myself now 30 feet off the ground and 100 feet from the djin. I have a new plan of punching that baby in the face 'till it dies. As I hit the ground I rolled into a spring jump, launching myself at the baby. It then points down, I start to sweat. A big ass lightning bolt rips out of the sky like Zeus was particularly pissed at someone. I, like most people, have wondered what is like to get hit by a lightning bolt. PS it sucks. The bolt rips through my body like wet tissue paper sending my muscles into spasms and I awkwardly fly through the air.
Luke picks this time to show back up. The djin points left. A giant ice hammer punts Luke into a tree 30 feet away. I harmlessly crash into the ground only 10 feet from this stupid baby as I still spasm. After Luke hits the tree he sends out, what looks like a bunch of swords made of light.
The first couple of swords shatter on contact with the barrier like someone took a sledgehammer to a window. Then the barrier starts to crack before shattering to the onslaught of attacks Luke was putting out. It was at this moment I could move again. As the djin was doing its best not to get run through by 100 swords I wait until the attack is over before using Claw of the Departed Dragon(Uncommon) a couple of times, turning the djin into mincemeat.
I then proceed to scoop up the pile of meat and eat it in one bite. Notifications start to pop up.

"Hey Luke you doing good," I say to him as he pulls himself out of a tree before he starts to stretch.
"Never better," Luke yells back, "Why?"
"Just a quick question, does the system judge your actions?" I ask
"Not that I know of, why?" Luke shoots back
"Mine just called me a monster for eating that djin we fought," I say pouting a little bit.
"It straight up told you that you were a monster?" Luke asks confused.
"Na, It just said it in a skill I got."
"You got a skill just now?" Luke says with extreme surprise.
"Ya, why do you sound surprised?"
"As a hero, I only have three skills, how many do you have?"
"Um, nine."
Luke just facepalms.
