《Snake leveling system》 Chapter 6 Foe or a Companion? Rose jumps from the ground and dashes towards a nearby goblin. Goblin sees Rose while quickly trying to take a defensive stance but Rose was too fast and she split goblin in half. Other goblins see this and start rushing forward with a furious expression. David moves much faster, running while splitting goblin in half. Mages start chanting! David shouts while making a rush towards goblin lord. Mages start chanting explosion spell from Davids command and after 8 seconds Mages shows big fireballs towards the center of the village. Fireballs are getting closer towards the village until mud rises from the ground and blocks the explosive magic. Tch! Strikers kill the goblin mages! David shouts while rest of the team rushes towards the goblin''s backline where goblin mages were chanting more spells. Rose rushes with decent speed until her speed slows down. "Wha?!" Her feet are covered in sticky mud and she can''t move at all. Rose is trying to escape free while one goblin rushes towards Rose. Goblin saw his companion die by this woman''s hands so he was pissed and made him even more furious. Rose sees the sword swing getting closer towards her. She quickly out of reflex closes her eyes and wait for the death slash. 1 second 2 second, nothing happens. Rose opens her eyes and she sees a snake digging his fangs in goblins neck. Rose is stunned for seeing this snakes action. "Did this snake save me?" she says while looking at this snake that saved her. Rose sees this Redsnake looking at him with his analyzing gaze. What makes Rose even more shocked snake nods to her question like he would understand me speaking! Rose tries to move his legs but is still stuck in the ground but quickly this snakes tail coil around her legs and with great power pulls her legs out of the mud. She looks at this snake''s golden eyes staring at her like watching her reaction. Rose quickly makes a firm decision and ask the snake. "Can you help us?" Rose feels so stupid to even speak to a monster. she feels embarrassed until the snake nods again to his question while waving his tail. This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.Snake dashes with his tail towards next goblin with his fangs and Rose quickly composes herself. "David!" Rose shouts and looks at David who watched this whole situation happening. "Did that Red snake just saved you?!" "Yes! Report to other teams that this monster is an ally." Rose says to him quickly as she rushes forward to the battleground again. David understands the situation and considers this again in his head. A red snake will help us?! This has never happened! David gritted his teeth for even thinking of getting help from a monster. He sees the situation on the battlefield and firmly shouts to his earpiece. "Our group has founded intelligent Redsnake on the battlefield, He is killing the goblins as we speak. If this Snake is trying to harm us or any other group member, kill it immediately!" David tries this risky move for winning this situation. He watches as these new guild members look at David with a confusing expression on their faces. David sighs and Dashes towards the center of the village. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Alex: Why do i help her? Because they RUINED MY PLANS! How can I level up like a pro when there are no monster fries to slay. Of course, some of my actions are still for the fact that I was a human but still now that I have gotten their trust I need to quickly start slaying these goblins so I can get more EXP from this "event". I understood from Davids''s gaze that he didn''t like me helping them at all. I tried to act like a pet when I saw rose doubting me at the beginning of this encounter. I move towards goblin mages so I can get even more exp. I move at a fast pace towards goblin mage which uses a mudwall to block my strike zone. I bounce with my tail over the mudwall and dug my fangs deep inside goblin mages throat. Poison Fang! Goblins skin quickly turns purple as its body starts to melt into a purple glue on to the ground. Goblin mages in front of me start to panic and quickly start to chant new spell but like I would give them that chance. I dash towards next goblin mage with greats speed and slice goblins cheek with my fangs. As I slice the goblin in the air I bounce towards another mage to slice him the same way. I do this for 4 times to nearby goblins and they all fell onto the ground. My poison is really strong I have to say. [*ding] [You have leveled up!] [You have leveled up!] Alright! This is really good grinding I have to say! I see Human mages chanting their fireballs towards the center of the village again. Their spells work this time because of a lack of goblin mages in the village. BOOM! the large explosive sound echoes through the woods with a big wave of wind flowing through me. Many goblins are on fire and many of them turned to ash from that explosive. Pogchamp I have to say... I look at that explosive in a daze but instantly my mind turns back to reality from a Loud roar from the center of the village. Goblin Lord is fighting against two humans? Why they don''t team up against him? I see this one guy with a longsword dashing towards it while an old man in a gray robe is supporting him behind his back. I see this woman looking at those two and she sighs and facepalms. Those two idiots... Chapter 7 Cavarly Ray clashes with the goblin king which makes sound waves throughout the woods. ROOAAAAAAR*- CURE WOUNDS! Jack sounds as Ray''s wound starts slowly regenerating. Goblin laughs at this while his skins bloody scars slowly close down. What is this self-healing ability?! Ray shouts while breathing loudly. Here he comes! Jack shouts! Goblin roars towards Ray which makes wind rushing towards Ray''s cheek. HAAAAAAA!!!! Ray shouts as he slashes towards goblin lords stomach. AAAAAAAAARGGGHHHH. Ray screams from pain as Goblin lord hits him with a massive black sword. Ray stumbles around on the woods and his movements stop to a hollow tree. RAY!!! Shouts Ray and Jack. Tch... Ray spits out blood. This is no normal goblin... Ray looks Goblin straight into his eyes with anger. Goblin laughs to a weakness this human had against him. David cleans the last goblin mage behind and sees the situation. He quickly dashes towards Goblin Lord, anger in his heart as a Leader of the team. HOLY SLASH! Bright golden light slashes out of his sword towards goblin lord which makes a deep cut into goblin lords stomach. ROAAAAAAAAAR! Goblin Lord shouts in great pain. Goblin lord takes a step back and starts shouting hard which makes the forest rumble with his shout. This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.RRRRROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR! The woods start grumbling like a massive explosion. The wind starts gushing around with huge power. No way... David falls into his knees while watching this huge creature coming down from the sky. EVERY ONE FALL BACK! FALL BACK!!! David shouts from the top of his lungs until his head gets stabbed from a huge tail. His head falls to the ground coloring the grass to with a deep red color. ELEMENTAL DRAGON! IT''S ELEMENTAL DRAGON!! Someone shouts as he runs away with all his might. I see Goblin lord weakened and rush towards it to get that exp bonus. I dig my Fangs deep inside the goblin''s throat. I hear many alarming sounds from the system as I see this Huge Silver Dragon looking at me. My heart starts pumping like a maniac as I start my dash to run but the spiky tail of the dragon catches up to me in a second. I see the tail coming towards me with a huge speed as I close my eyes. This is it. My life is over again... I can''t ever win against something like that. With my eyes closed, I feel some kind of liquid splashing on my skin. I slowly open my eyes as I feel my heart dropping from shock. MOTHER!! I see my mother stabbed by the tail while protecting me. Mother spat out a mouthful of blood and looks The Dragon full of anger. How dare you touch my SON! :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Mother: I feel mana round the air vibrating as I meditate. I observe monster around the woods feeling people around me until I see my little princess in the goblin village. What is he doing there?! I see him fighting Goblins mages with a smile around his face. I laugh as I start again meditating while watching my son''s movement. This ability is really good! I think in my mind as I understand this new ability. I feel rumbling around the pond as I feel Elemental Dragon flying towards Goblins village. SON! I shout I instantly slide in huge curves towards the entrance of the cave and dashes towards Goblin village. I take one of my scales and put it on top of my nest as I rush towards the village. Let me get there on time!!! I feel the dragon coming closer to my boy as I quickly run to block the thrust from the tail. It feels awful. It hurts. But long as my boy is safe I''m happy. This Dragon is at least twice stronger than me. I see goblin lord dead on the ground. Call of the wild? Call of the wild is a unique skill that makes any surrounding monster to come to help you in the battle. Monsters don''t use this technique often because of the risk behind it. When the stronger monster regains himself from the spell he might kill the caster or the surrounding. This Goblin Lord is dead but the Dragon must be pissed for being used for something like this. I see my son watching in despair. It''s okay, survive and don''t make the same mistakes that I did... My son''s eyes open wide open because this is the first time I used my telepathy skill. RUN! I shout as my son hesitates for a while until he starts running with incredible speed. That''s my boy. I look towards Dragon as I Roar with all my might. Blood flows from my mouth as I feel anger towards the Dragon. Let''s Fight!! Chapter 8 Goodbye Mother glares at the dragon with great anger, waiting for his move for the next attack. Swooooosh*- Dragons tail slices through the air towards mother with great speed. Mother dodges the huge blade-like tail with struggle. I hide in a bush far away spectating this mighty battle. Dragon shoots yellow fire from his lungs attacking with great fury towards my mother. The Dragon''s breath makes nearby trees turn into ashes from its powerful attack. Mother!!! Despair makes my heart shiver from the attack against my mother until I remember Mother''s Skills from the last time I scanned them. My Mother rushes towards the Dragon and coils around him with great speed. Mother tries to strangle the Dragon but his mighty wings push mother off from his massive body. Mother screams in anger from the earlier damage as her eyes turn deep red from rage. That''s Berserk! I shout in my mind as I spectate the battle of gods in front of my eyes. Mother dashes towards the dragon with her large fangs, striking the dragon''s left side as her Fangs dug deep into the Dragon''s lungs. Dragon roars in pain as he tries to move around trying to weaken the grip of my mother''s strong Fangs. Poison Fang! Mother''s Poison is many times stronger than mine. I can see purple poison coloring Dragons Veins around his chest as the dragon tries to let himself free from her Jaws. Dragon starts feeling very dizzy from the Poison as his body starts moving a little bit slower. He is so powerful! I shout in my mind. Poison is already so strong and can kill almost anything in this forest and that Dragon is feeling only dizzy?! My heart sinks from despair for mother like a deep ocean full of pressure from this massive beast. Dragon slashes with his right claw and digs deep into the mother''s head. The mother weakens the grip from pain as Dragon prepares for his next attack. The dragon breathes a massive Ice beam towards my mother which makes my mother fully frozen from her head to tail. Mother''s eyes slowly lose all color as Dragon slashes mother as she turns into blocks of ice. My mother''s body shatters to the ground in icicles as I shout from the top of my lungs.Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. "MOTHER!!!" I see the battle finally ending and I start rushing back towards the cave while crying. I dash with all my stamina back into the cave as I look back seeing my mother''s body getting devoured by the dragon-like an Icecream Snack. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I rush back to the cave in horror as I vomit on to the floor of the cave. "No... Mother no..." My tears won''t stop falling on to the ground. "It''s my fault. I helped humans It''s my fault... It''s my fault..." I remember the huge Elemental Dragon which ate my Mother in pleasure. "No, It wasn''t my fault..." "It was that dragon..." "I kill him... I kill him... I kill him... I kill him... I KILL HIM I KILL HIM!!!" I mutter as my sound turns louder. "HOW DARE HIM TAKE AWAY MY MOTHER''S LIFE!!! I KILL HIM AND HIS FAMILY, HIS MOTHER, AND SISTER, HIS SON OR DAUGHTER I KILL HIM, I KILL HIM!!!" I shout as my Hissing echoes in anger through the cave. I go towards Mother''s nest while my tears sweep through the ground with my movement. I see the big red shiny scale middle of the nest shining because of small light from the outside. I go close to it as I touch it with my tail. "Mother..." I feel sorrow until I hear a voice from the system. [Ding*] [You have found a Recording Scale!] [Recording scale is Testimony which records words from the dead person. ] [ Recording scale only activates if the person has fully died . ] [ Would like to hear your Mother''s last words? ] I look at the scale in shock as I immediately shout YES! Scale slowly turns color into golden as it starts to float around on the air. My mother''s beautiful voice echoes from the scale to my head as I listen to the last message from her to me. My beautiful princess... If you hear this message you might already know that I am now dead. "I didn''t want to die yet. I wanted to teach you some magic and take care of you always with a happy expression on my face. But now that I''m gone, Remember my princess that it is not your fault." "IT IS! BECAUSE OF ME YOU DIED AND NOW I''M ALL ALONE!" I shout my eyes full of tears. "No matter how I died or when I died or who I died to, It''s definitely not your fault." I listen to recording my head down as my tears drop into the ground from my golden eyes. "You have grown so much in a couple of weeks I don''t know if I can stay with you for so long. I never wanted to use Call of the wild because the monster might come after you, my little sweetheart." "So If I did use it and died I''m a bad mother and If I didn''t use it I''m happy because you can now live in peace." "Don''t forget this pain that you have right now. Grow stronger from the pain because that is how life goes. The pain is good. Don''t forget that no matter where I am right now I am looking at you, proud of that I have my own Sweetheart growing into a fine woman someday. Live and make me proud, I''m always watching you, my little baby." The scale turns into a golden light as it shatters slowly shatters into the air and finally disappears. Mother... *sniff- I always love you... I will make you proud. My body is very tired from the fight as I go to my mother''s old warm bed as I cry myself to sleep. Chapter 9 Growing It has been 2 weeks from my Mother''s death and I have a strong urge to grow stronger. I wanna make my Mother proud and happy that I am healthy and fine and growing a little bit stronger and stronger until I am the pinnacle of this world. I checked my status after the goblin lords'' death and I was shocked. "Huh?!!" [Status:] [Name: Aleksi Matelija] [Species: Red snake ] [Level: 9] Health: 97 Mana: 84 Length: 2.6m [Combat power: 47] [Affinity: Fire, Poison, Water] [Skill: Snakemovement D, Dash D Strangle D, Poison Fang C] [Unique Skill: Devour, Call of the wild] [Defense: None] [Titles: Reincarnated as a Snake] "How did I level up so much?!!!" *Ding [Goblin Lord was more powerful than a normal one because of many skills.] Ok, That I understand but why and when did I get Call of the wild?! *Ding [When you touched the mother''s scale it inherited you the unique skill that your mother had.] I-I... Thank you, Mom... I smile gently until a little tear falls out of my eye. I shake my head from sad thoughts. I need to get powerful. I checked the system store and was surprised by the amount of Sp. I have almost 400 points and that''s a lot! Every time I killed goblin in that fight I almost every time devoured them so that explains that huge amount. I return into the cave and I am again surprised by the System. *Ding [System is analyzing the pond''s potential.] [Fusing the power with the system.] [Calculating...] [Success.] [Pond in this Cave contains Life essence which is a powerful liquid that helps the person to get more magic from the air. This pond is at least 300 years old which contains magic power of all living creature who has been living in this cave.] [Does host wanna upgrade your magic power?] Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.I read the message in shock. Mother hit the gold mine with this one. 300 years? every living creature''s magic power?! YES! *Ding [Host, go into the lake and bare the pain you are gonna get.] I hesitate because if System says that I''m gonna feel the pain that means I''m gonna suffer from this one mentally. I thought about it for a while until I finally got my courage back to go into it. I slither towards the pond until my tail hits the water. Coldwater hits me as I try to swim in the middle of the pond. Ding* [ Fusing the magic with the host''s body. Don''t lose your conscious Host or you will lose a good amount of magic power.] Dathumb* My heart starts rapidly pumping as I feel the energy coursing through my body at massive speed. AAAAAARRRRRRGGHHH!!! It feels like my body is being turned into ash and being regenerating back. My whole body is being stabbed by flaming knives that burn over me over and over again. I wanna die. Make this pain STOP! I shout from the top of my lungs to keep me awake this process. After 3 hours of unbearable pain, the pain starts to accumulate to one spot in my body. The pain circulates my body as it gradually stops. "I stayed conscious that whole process. Never again..." I whisper as I slowly close my eyes as I start sleeping because of a rough day. *Ding [You have leveled up!] [Host has the right amount of Exp for Evolution] [Evolution is starting.] [...] [Good night dear.] :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: In the town of Iscardo, Rose hasn''t been in a guild for a couple of weeks. She has been sorrowing from Jack''s and Rays death. Rose is staying at her friend''s house who owns an Inn in the town for the time being. Those guys were sometimes pain in the ass but they were good companions and almost like good family members for Rose. There was knocking on the door. *Knock knock- "Rose, can you please open the door. I have some cookies made for you." A little girl''s voice echoes outside of the door gently. "Maria, Can you please leave me alone for a while..." Rose talks with little voice that you can almost hear her through the door. "I have left you alone there for almost 2 weeks. You barely eat!!! Do you think Jack and Ray would want you to behave this way." There is a long silence inside the room until Rose opens the door. Rose is wearing red pajamas and she looks very dirty for being inside the room for so long. Her eyes lids are little reddened clearly from crying a while ago. "sigh- You really need a bath. Ok, I''m gonna get you a towel and you go bath then asap okay? And eat these cookies they will help you to get better." Rose feels warm inside because of such care from Maria. A gentle smile appears on her face after a long while. "Thank you, Maria..." "Yeah yeah. Now go take that shower I will make you some food." Maria starts walking with little steps to the corridor with her pigtail waving happily that she has work to do. Rose looks at the burned cookies and take a big bite. Bitter... Rose says as she munches more of the cookies in hunger. "I hope that little snake is okay..." Rose remembers the dragon eating the Big Red Snake queen and gets shivers from such sight. "Okay, Time to move forward," Rose says as she slaps his cheeks with both of her hands. Rose walks towards bath not knowing how big her life is gonna turn out in the future. Chapter 10 New species "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! *Ding [Your evolution made you one of the rarest species in the whole world with unbelievable magic power that is only known in legends.] [Your species name is...] [Status:] [Name: Aleksi Matelija] [Species: Arcane snake ] [Level: 12] Health: 179/179 Mana: 200/430 Length: 3.8m [Combat power: 145] [Affinity: Fire, Poison, Water, Thunder (New!)] [Skill: Snakemovement C, Dash C Strangle C, Poison Fang B Magic Manipulation (New!), Lightning Spear (New!), FireWall (New!), Water Prison (New!), Vocal cords C (New!) ] [Unique Skill: Devour, Call of the wild, Arcane Boost (New!)] If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.[Defense: Fire resistance S (New!), Water resistance B(New!), Thunder Resistance S (New!)] [Titles: Reincarnated as a Snake, Mythical Species (New!) ] 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. Chapter 11 Unusual encounter I was slithering through the woods and it was a couple of hours until the sun was going down. I was trying to hunt while looking around for a place to stay for a night until I saw a human-size hairy creature 20meters in front of me. I studied this creature that had Lion like Face with brown leather pants. He had brown fur with a stone sword in his waist in a holster. He sniffs the air and then looks at my direction with his head tilting towards my area with fast speed. I instantly hide behind a bush trying not to encage a fight without not knowing if this creature is intelligent or maybe stronger than me. He looks at my direction for a while until he senses my presence which gives him a confident smile of victory. ¡°I know you are in there.¡± The creature says in a different language while taking his hand on to the grip of his sword ready to unleash it. It''s German? Not English? I know the language because I studied the language in school when I was younger in my past life. I shout behind the bush with my sh** vocal cords. ¡°I don¡ät wanna fight you-u!¡± My german is bad but the beast still understood me. Ho- You speak Beastman? The hairy creature says in confusion. Why would I fight my kind! Hahaha! The creature laughs as he but his hand away from the grip of his sword. ¡°I am not your kind,¡± I say as I come out of the bush. The Beastman looks in shock as he takes his sword out of his waist. ¡°A snake?! I don¡¯t know your species.¡± he looks at me to eyes being very cautious. ¡°Wh-ell my kind is very rare s-so I¡¯m not ss-surprised for you not knowing,¡± I answer as I look at him in the eyes. Appraisal! [Beastman] [Lv24] [Hp 257] [Mana: None ] [Combat power 312] [Skills: Better Reflex A, Better hearing A, Better Sense of smell A, Agility B, Strenght A ] [Unique Skill: Beast Transformation] Description: [All physical stats with this species are more powerful than normal. Rarely this species has mana or any magic power.]Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation. Ok, so he is really powerful. Looks like Evolution gave me something to appraisal to have a description of a species I appraise. Beastmans tail shivers while he grips his sword even tighter. "What did you do to me?!" Beast man shouts as he looks at his body in anger. What do you mean? I did nothing to you. I say as I tilt my head in confusion. I feel like you have checked every corner of my existence! He grips his sword while staring at me with a fierce expression, waiting for answers. Beastman does have a good sense of everything. I think I can take him down with my current powers but maybeee¡­ Prankster inside comes out when I stare at this idiot with brown leather pants. Kukuku¡­ You have s-seen through me mere beas-st man.¡± I say with a wicked smile on my face. Haaa! I knew it you are working with the devils!!! You are the part of the Devils army that has been attacking our town many times this month! Muhahaha muhahahahahhahaaaaa! Yes-ss I am working with the¡­ wait... Is there devils-ss in this-s world? I tilt my head in confusion again looking like an idiot. Beastman is confused (It¡¯s super effective!!!) There is a long silence between us until I start explaining what just happened. Ss-so Uhm I don¡¯t work with anyone I¡¯m just ss-searching for a place to ss-stay, I was just-st a minute ago playing around with you. Ss-so we cc-cool? Beastman listen to my explanation as he starts laughing that the whole forest echoes, waking up from his daze. HAHAHAHAHA You making fun of me. I knew all along that you made fun of me hahaha. Yeah, sure I thought as I watched this idiot laughing like he knows everything. S-so Can I ss-stay at your place? I ask which surprises the Beastman. The s-sun is going down and I have no place to s-stay s-so If it-ss okay to you can I ss-stay at your plac-ce for a night. The Beastman thinks for a second and asks with a serious expression on his face. Can I trust you? He pulls out his weapon as he looks at my eyes waiting for an answer. I stare straight into his fierce eyes as I answer. "Did I ss-ay s-something that made me untrus-stable?" He looks at my expression for a while until he puts his sword back to his waist. Alright, you can stay for one night. I don¡¯t know why but somehow I can trust you. Really? No wonder those devils come every time because these species trust people too easily i thought while coming closer. "I haven''t heard your name yet" Beastman looks at me with a gentle smile on his face. "Alex-s" "Alex. That''s a good name! My name is Gregor. It''s a pleasure to meet you Alex HAHAHAHA. He laughs as I try to cover my ears with my tail. We walk a couple of kilometers, chatting about women and some other manly things until Our speed drops down as I see a very medieval town with stone roads in the distance. Wow... This-s will be the firs-st town I have ever been to. Welcome to Eslevar! Its a town for many different species except demons. Gregor opens his arms wide trying to look majestic. Ding* [Your vocal cords have leveled up to B!] Okay, that didn''t take long I sighed as I felt burning in my throat. Ughh... You okay partner? Gregor looks at me as I march through the pain. Yeah... I''m fine now. I answer him with a smile on my face. Shall we go? If you are tired I understand fully. Without my muscles, you are just a small snake compared to me. HAHAHAHA... HEY WAIT FOR ME! I was tired from that vocal cords mess so I just let him do the talk and continued marching forward to the town''s gate.
