"Uaaah- " I yawn as I woke up from good night sleep.
I see that I am somehow floating on top of the pond with perfect balance.
"Hmm? That's weird, 2 weeks ago I fell like a rock to the bottom of the pond."
"Uhm System? How do I float?" I ask as my body starts waking up to the day.
Ding*
[Your whole new body after evolution is full of magic power which without magic control makes you spread the magic to your surroundings.]
[The magic makes your body float on top of the water and not pushing you down.]
Hmm... so It was magic that makes me... wait...
the cave turns silent as my mouth turns wide open as I read the message again in my head. It's like my sleepiness just washed away with ice-cold water splashed on my face.
EVOLUTION?! WHAT?!!! I shout as I quickly slither out of the pond.
My speed is twice as faster as I move in big curves out of the water. The speed is at least thrice faster than before. I look at my reflection from water as I see a scales turned into a light blue with white thunder-like lines sweeping through my body. At the top of my head is a red gem that connects with white lines coursing my body. My Fangs have turned into a golden color that is the same as my eyes.
Holy ss-shit... My voice echoes through the cave... wait... MY VOICcc-E?!
I CAN TALK!
WHAT HOW?
IM A Sss-NAKE!

I look at my new stats with my mouth open for a prey 5 times larger than me.
I am shocked.
My mana is at least 4 times more than yesterday. My size and Combat power blew up and I have complete resistance against Lightning and Fire.
That's AWESOME!
Ok, so my vocal cords are C so...
"Hello, my name iss--... Oh, I ss-ee" I speak as I understand the C in my status.
Looks like I need practice. I start reading again my status with great curiosity.
How did I get all these defensive stats?
Ding*
[While the host was sleeping the magic started gathering into one spot in your body which made you not float for a couple of minutes. ]
[Host got resistance to water from drowning and being underwater for 3 hours.]
3 hours?! How long have I been asleep?!
Ding*
[Host has been sleeping for approximately 19 hours.]
Ok, so the evolution has been very long one I can see that from the status what I have now. At this point, nothing surprises me anymore.
"And the other Resistances?"
Ding*
[Host has Fire resistance and Thunder resistance from Species passive skills.]
[Host has new skills made for this species in the System Store. ]
[Don't forget to browse through it later.]
I forgot! I have a system store!
I instantly go inside my system store and browse through the new skills that this species has.
Arcane Snake skills:
Thunder call 500sp
Poison splash 300sp
Fire ball 200sp
Water slash 300sp
Magic control 200sp
Cou'd kor Explosion 600sp
Blade Tail 250sp
Arcane beam 1500sp
Ok, so I have a good amount of different abilities in store. I thought as I checked the price.
"System what is Arcade Beam?"
Ding*
[Arcade Beam is 6 Different affinities combined which makes a powerful beam that deals a massive amount of damage to an opponent.]
[The power is close to a Dragon but the skill is very rare to get because of the number of affinities.]
"Hmm, I see... System how am I able to get more Affinities?"
Ding*
[System is currently not able to tell you that information.]
Tch... And I thought I was in Easy mode with this one. Looks like I need to get some practice with my new body. I started moving as my body started slowing down from fatigue.
Why am I so tired?
*Ding
[Host does not have magic control so the host will spread his magic around him giving the host a sense of Fatigue and low magic power.]
I thought system with his eyes shaped Sp (dollar sign).
You greedy bastard. I sighed and bought the magic control.
The technique went into my mind instantly as I shaped my magic coursing my body into one ball inside me. Well, that was easier than I thought AND I PAID FOR THAT?! SYSTEM!
[...]
I calm my anger for the fact that the system has been so useful to this point. Without it, I would have never got so far with this evolution and I know that.
Well the Pond is clear and all monster in this area is low level so maybe I should move into a different place.
I take the bed to my inventory and look the cave last time.
The pond is now like mud water after I sucked it dry from everything and the mother nest looks little old not being used.
"Well, thanks-ss for eveything-g" I say out loud as I start slithering towards a new place searching for a new home.
