[Day 75]

Yesterday was an interesting day, a lot happened, way too much. It was an incredibly long day, in fact.

But now that things had settled down everything is more relaxed.

Yesterday after the slime attack, I acquired a bunch of Skills, which ended fusing into even more cooler Skills.

Devour and Body Transformation.

Devour seems to be something I already had, but I guess I can now level it up.

And Body Transformation is Mimicry + Body Size Alteration effects, but now enhanced, as I can take the shape of creatures I devour as much as I want as long as enough Mana is supplied.

Yes, I had tried using it yesterday a lot, I took all sorts of shapes, but I wasn't able to bring myself into anything remotely human-like, or well, ice giant-like at all.

Not even a lizardman shape was achievable, if I choose the rat gorilla and merged it with my scales, I only got a scaled rat-faced gorilla, nothing much.

And I feel way more comfortable as a pure ice dragon, so I simply decided to keep being like that.

However, I showed Benladann that I could change sizes now, although my limit was up to three meters. It was enough to be around her size, so we were able to be way closer now instead of her hugging me despite my tremendous size, now she could hug me better I guess.

And yeah, this is how I ended sleeping at her side once more, as she invited me to her bed, and I managed to get right in, she snuggled with me and covered me in the blankets... and we slept together.

Well, nothing else happened.

Eh?

What? I am not a pervert! What would I have done?!

Anyways, I was rather happy to feel her warmth better now, maybe I could take the shape of a wolf to give her heat too, but I preferred to not show that shapeshifting ability to her because she would begin to ask me to transform all the time.

But man, sleeping in a bed feels nice.

As a dragon, I was too immensely heavy, so it was rather impossible, I slept just over the cold floor, leather would easily tear down to my giant claws and scales.

But with this size and weight, I can enjoy a warm and soft bed better.

And honestly, being hugged by Benladann felt so nice…

A-Anyways, let's go back to the topic.

Erm… What was the topic today?

Oh right, evolution!

So the System just told me today, after I ate another pile of Mana Cores I got from hunted Slimes that we had been encountering lately this morning, that I suddenly reached my next stage of cultivation.

Yeah, we had just finished killing the second batch of slimes led by a Slime King and this happened.

But the thing is that when I hit the next stage I usually just evolve naturally, but now it gave me the choice.

Yeah, there are evolution choices now.

So to evolve I quickly flew down into the ground and created an ice igloo, closing it and telling Benladann to wait for my evolution.

And here I am now, time to check the System.

Ding!
