…
Frost acquired the Divine Dragon Mark of Thunder, which seemingly enhanced his speed and also gave him electric enhancements to his movements and muscles, he was able to move faster and react faster now, despite being so big and heavy.
His race had changed accordingly to what I had expected, and he acquired the Ice Dragon Bloodline ability, meaning that in the future he should be able to awaken more abilities…
As of now, he acquired the Dragon Scales ability, which is clear within parts of his body, which seem to be covered by blue scales and not fur.
He's also becoming better at using his tail now that it became longer and scaled, and even more as the tip is like that of a spear…
And lastly, his stats skyrocketed and were pretty decent… Well, not as overpowered as mine! But he could easily crush Slime Kings now.
Alongside him, many other wolves increased in their stages and evolved, but none was like Frost. He was the only one that awakened the dragon bloodline…
But maybe there could be more in the future? Even then, every damn wolf got a mark as well, so I guess they all have a bright future ahead.
And lastly… there was Yuki.
She changed a bit in her evolution.
Perhaps way too much.
"Fueheh… I can finally speak to you!"
Yes, she can speak, and she talks like a cheeky brat.
How is this even possible?!
And to boot, she looks humanoid… I mean, she looks like a rat-kin beast-girl or something.
Her body turned humanoid and have the size of the other kids, around a girl in her 8… She also has some pale-white skin beneath her fluffy white hair, and her face is very human-looking, although very cute as well, with big crimson-red eyes, although her nose is still like that of a rat, and she still got that big incisor fang, she also looks rather adorable… having that long silvery-white hair over her head and also those cute and big rat ears.
Her nails are large claws with sharp metallic claws secreting poison, and her tail also has a poisonous tip for some reason.
Many of the kids and even Benladann were surprised the most about her changes… I mean, who wouldn't be?!
"How can you even talk? This doesn't make any sense!" I said.
"Well, that's an evolution for you, Drake!" said Yuki.
"And I thought that you would at least not know how to speak… How intelligent were you before evolving?" I asked.
"Way more than you! I actually stuck with you so you could protect me…! Hehe, now, I have evolved and I can finally speak and tell you that…! Err… Keep protecting me?" she asked cutely.
"You're getting way too cocky! Want me to beat some sense into that empty skull of yours?!" I roared, as Benladann stopped me from crushing Yuki with my claws.
"S-Stop! She's just joking… Come on, Drake…" said Benladann.
"Yeah! Sorry! I am just very taken by the excitement of my new body and all… I really didn't mean to say all of that! I am really sorry!" apologized Yuki.
Ah… She's such a…
Alright, let's calm down. Yuki still has helped me a lot, she also cooks and everything.
But…
"Ungh! Why must it be you the one that got humanoid form first?!"
I also want one! Fafnir-sama, you just forgot that little detail!
"Well, maybe because I am a monkey and monkeys are close to humanoid entities," said Yuki.
"Eh? Is that so? So there is an evolutionary tree in this world or are you just bullshitting me?" I asked.
"Yeah I don't have any idea what I just said, I don't know why I evolved into this, but maybe it has to be with the mark. It enhanced our talents, right, Drake?" asked Yuki.
It feels so weird that she speaks so fluently…
"Sure… Erm, do you remember your past life? No, I mean… when you lived as a rat monkey?" I asked.
"Well, yeah… I was always smarter than my peers… My mother and father died against one of those rat gorillas you beat up. Long story short, I was never related to those, my race is a smaller variant… Well, it's all in the past, I've been living alone for years while being chased by those stupid gorillas until I met you… So here I am," said Yuki.
So there are monsters in this world capable of developing such an amount of intelligence in this world.
Wait…
"Maybe that you had a similar intelligence than giants, humans, elves, dwarves, and so on was a factor of your evolution!" said Benladann, stealing the words out of my mouth.
"O-Oh… Maybe that's the case, Benladann," said Yuki, addressing her with her name…
"Ugh… I just woke up but what with this ruckus?!" Draugann quickly woke up as she walked towards us…
She seemed to have a mark as well, although she still looked rather old.
No, wait, I think she might have gotten a bit younger-looking, but I can't tell with so many wrinkles.
"Eh? Who's this girl?!" asked Draugann.
"She's Yuki, the rat!" said Benladann.
"Yeah… I evolved, grandma Draugann," said Yuki.
"UEGH?! By Ymir, this is weird! What kind of abomination- Ah, I better calm myself down before I get a heart attack…" sighed Draugann.
