As Iko looked at her surroundings the feeling to go on a rampage was getting stronger, she didn’t know why she hadn’t gone crazy yet after all, the beasts that started to appear around her weren’t in their right minds.
[Grey wolf of corruption, Level 10]
[Grey wolf of corruption, Level 13]
[Grey wolf of corruption, Level 15]
[Grey wolf of corruption, Level 12]
…
Tons of the grey wolves of corruption all getting near her, their level ranging from 10-15, their claws and front legs had corruption all over them, how, she didn’t know what she did know is that she should escape after all, how can a level 1 being defeat dozens of levels 10 to 15? But thanks to the strange mist she couldn’t escape, her new animalistic instincts after becoming a corrupted dragon wouldn’t let her escape, neither her pride or desire to kill would let her escape, she started getting scared about being devoured again by beasts, but then she remembered those metal beasts, there was no way those were weaker to these wolfs right? So to try her theory she launched herself forward to the wolfs.
The wolfs… they were weak, too weak, the high levels and cool name made her think they were super strong, but as she dodged all of their attacks and with a single effortless attack with her claw, she divided them in 4 parts, and well she guessed that makes sense, her stats were pretty high, and this corruption seemed to ignore any defense from the opponent.

[Congratulations! You are now level 7!]
Even thought the strength difference was huge between the Iko and the wolfs, they were higher leveled, giving her higher experience thanks to that, but… those corpses… they looked delicious…
“No!! Wake up Iko! You’re not going to eat it!” Iko screamed at herself, holding the feeling to just have a little drop of their blood…
She couldn’t resist the temptation, even if the mist made her want to kill, the thoughts to drink the blood were bigger that the desire to kill, so with fast leap, she jumped to the corpses ignoring the other [System] notifications she had, giving the corpse a big bite before throwing up from the bad taste it had, it was horrible, why did she even tried to eat it? She grabbed some grass to clean her mouth but it tasted horrible too, it was as like everything she ate tasted like a dumpster, then she looked at the wolfs front legs, they were still covered by corruption and when looking at them she felt more hungry than when she looked to another direction, so she, ready to fight the horrible taste, gave one of the front claws a bite, and instead of the horrible taste the other parts of the wolf or the plants, this one tasted delicious, it was the best food she ever had, she devoured all the front legs from all the corpses, even drinking their now corrupted blood, leaving nothing but bones.
After Iko noticed that she finished all the legs she came back to her senses, she actually felt embarrassed to have done that and had acted like a savage, but if she stayed quite no one would ever know about this, she felt a ring in her ears and she remembered the notifications she had yet to look at, while opening her [System] she started wondering why only the pieces coated in corruption tasted good, what she had done counted as cannibalism? Her line of thought ended as soon as she saw her notifications.

That was… a big level up in stats, she heard that if one was lucky one stat could get 2 stat points instead of one but she just got 3 and 5 stats in mental and mystic stat… the second round of notifications came not long after.

[Abilities Unlocked: Corrupted Wings, Corrupted Touch, Reality Pierce.]
Before Iko could even comprehend what were all those notifications, her back and claw started to hurt, not like it hurt as the torture she went through the last 2 months or so, but it was still enough to make her scream as the white cloak she was wearing, being it the only clothing she had, broke in her back giving space for 2 dragon like wings to appear from her back, they were pure black, glitching out of place in some parts, it had cracks and holes in it, but she felt it wouldn’t matter a lot if she tried to fly, then a dragon tail appeared from her back, also pure black while glitching and with purple cracks, the tip of the tail looked like a syringe, it had a crystal tube just at the end near the syringe, her claw begun to become darker than before, it started glitching, the tree she was using as a support started to corrupt from her touch, she took her hand off the tree quickly but the damage was done, the tree was now glitching in and out of existence as if it was an error.
“Huh… That was strong…” said Iko in between breaths as the pain disappeared and her claw went back to the normal black, then more notifications appeared, apparently not wanting to give her a break.
[You unlocked Corrupted Wings!]
[You unlocked Corrupted Touch!]
[You unlocked Reality Pierce!]
As she looked at the 3 new notifications, she got an idea, could she use the [Eye of The Dragon] to see what it did? Since it apparently didn’t let anything escape her eyes. She tried, and it worked… a little too well… since she was bombed with information, making her head hurt, so she tried to just concentrate it to the ability, and this time, it worked.
[Corrupted wings]
[“May the old glory fly back to the king”]
[The user unlocks their sealed wings from ancient times, the wings that the dragons used to conquer for years and years to come, it allows the user to use them to fly and the protective scales it haves can protect you, (Note from the Moderator: The holes on the wings will stay there until you get a certain level of bloodline)]
As Iko looked into the notification she got exited, after all who in their right minds wouldn’t want to fly?! She was a little confused by the note and the flavor text on the description, but she couldn’t care more, and as she got ready to jump and try to fly she noticed that she actually didn’t feel like killing anymore, since she devoured those corrupted parts, she didn’t feel the urge to kill everything, is like the corruption devoured the mist inside her system, not that she would get angry about that, but a good surprise, but it was better to know what everything she had did to not get surprises during battle, so, she gathered herself and contained her being to just jump to the air, she interacted with [Eye of The Dragon] and [Corrupted claw]
[Eye of The Dragon]
[“The eye that destroyed our king’s enemies!”]
[The user’s eyes change’s to one of the true born dragons, owners of the skies, the user can identify other beings and objects, (Notes from moderator: the last one isn’t recommended, it gives a head ache) it’s said that they can resonance with fragments of different powers]
[Corrupted claw]
[“The claw that fought and killed for our king!”]
[The user right arm is transformed into a true born dragon claw, giving it the power to defend against magic and now, imbued with corruption has gained the properties to ignore defenses (note from moderator: don’t let it touch your clothes, it will destroy it and then hurt you) this claw can resonance with [Corrupted touch] and [??????] ]
As she read the notifications, she got curious about this supposed “King” maybe if she ever got out she could search for information about him and the true born dragons, after all, she only knew the lesser and greater dragons, they have been legends about fully fledged dragons but they were hard to believe, and this moderator…
“Why is he leaving notes on my abilities? Could he be the same being that transformed my [system] back then?”
Iko was thinking about that and the other things the identification gave her, mostly the resonance with abilities like [Corrupted touch] or that mysterious ability, she wondered what resonance with a fragment meant, but as she looked around she found that she still had a lot of time to figure it out, with her other abilities too, after all, there was a lot of test subjects here to train.

In the depths of a laboratory in the edge of the forbidden land of the dragons, Jaul was messing with his metal beasts as he thought if the mutated beasts with corruption had already killed the girl, after all, that mist was strong to even make him want to kill, as he was patting the tiger looking beast, he got a message from his patron, warning him about danger, just like when he identified that girl.
[The Kingdom of Rolk is coming, hide.]
As every time his patron said something he just did it without hesitation, why would hesitate? There were rumors Folkur had gotten stronger after all, so he did just that and covered the entire laboratory with a spell, hoping they didn’t notice.
