Reincarnated Into A Human?

100 advanced points had finally been earned. Ray couldn't even remember the last time he had seen the evolution message. It had been a while and knowing that there weren't many advanced tier creatures in the Alure kingdom, he thought it would take longer to reach this point.

But the next step was what Ray always hated, the evolution process. It almost started immediately, but this time he was prepared. He sat down with his legs crossed and got into a meditating position. Keeping all of the pain inside.

The last few times this process started, he would scream from the pain of his bones breaking down and reforming again. But not this time, he wasn't going to let the system get the better of him.

Each time Ray evolved, he got closer and closer to what he once was. Although there were still many tiers of beast crystals to go with, he finally felt like his goal was in sight.

"I will return to being what I once was."

Outside on the open field, the Underdog guild were still locked in combat. Two of the rifts had been closed, and the shadow army had lessened significantly. The tide seemed like it was starting to turn.

"We can do this, Keep pushing!" Jack shouted as he punched one of the hounds to the floor and then grabbed the mouth off the other, ripping it apart with both hands.

"That guy is a monster; how does he have such strength?" The guild members said.

Jack continued to go into the centre of the beasts with no worriers. The hounds were literally hanging off his body gripping onto him with their teeth, but still, not a single scratch was ever put on him. The beasts were far too weak.

Even Rick couldn't believe what monsters they had decided to go up against. Not only that but they had heard Jack refer to the redhead child as their boss. That boy seemed even crazier than Jack, running straight into the portal with no sign of hesitation.

"Damn it, stop running my plans, I was meant to obtain the boy for myself!" Wiz said. "This might be the only chance I get. If the others got wind of what I was trying to do, they would punish me for it."

"Well at least I got rid of that annoying brat, now just to deal with the rest.

With two of the rifts now closed Wiz needed to do something fast, otherwise soon the Guild members would take over. We waved his staff once more, and two more enormous rifts appeared from above. Then two large hounds, advanced tier creatures with tentacles over their body came falling from the sky.

As they landed the rifts above them closed.

"Now this what I was waiting for!" Jack said as he saw the two large dogs.

But before Jack could even move forward to defeat the dogs, a bright light started to appear next to him. After a few moments, a figure could be seen standing in the white light.

Out of it came a red-haired man with spikey hair.

"Ray?" Jack said, half confused.

Jack had a right to be confused. For the person standing in front of him was a man, it was not the 17-year-old he had travelled with in the past year. It looked almost identical to Ray only more mature, his body had filled out a little, and his face was more chiselled.

Back in the cave, Ray had just finished going through his evolution.

[Advanced tier evolution complete]

[0/100 King tier points]

[Race: Dracotaur]

Once again, Ray had gone through a race change. His whole body felt slightly new compared to before. At first, he thought he must have been imagining things as everything around him looked somewhat taller.

The evolution this time had even changed the human side of his body. And there was something else sticking out of his behind. Something that could be felt there that wasn't there before.

As he turned to take a look, he noticed a tiny tail, it looked more like a sharp bump sticking out of the top of his bottom. It had ripped through the trousers he was wearing and red in colour.

As Ray tried to control it, he managed to give it the smallest of wiggles.

"Well it wasn't like before, but at least it's a start."

The scales that ran up his arms now were more defined and ran further up his sleeve. Then when he went to touch his face, he could feel the same thing around the edge of his hairline.

But it wasn't the time to be fascinated by his transformation. Although he trusted Jack and Martha to get the job done, there was always the chance that Wiz could be hiding something up his sleeve. And he wanted to test out his newfound body.

Before activating his teleportation skill, Ray used his transform skill to hide his dragon-like features. But decided to keep his taller self. It was going to be his regular form from now on so the others might as well get used to it.

[Transportation skill active]

[Teleporting to Jack]

A white light surrounded his body, and around thirty seconds later, he had left the cave and appeared right by Jack's side.

As he saw the two giant advanced tier hounds, he thought they were perfect to see how much he had grown.

"Jack, I'm going to have to borrow your power for a little while."

Without asking why, Jack allowed Ray to place his hand on his body and perform Mana steel.

Jack had improved his own Ki making his mana points higher than they were previously. Right now, he was sitting on around 150 points of mana according to the system if Ray was to guess.

Ray started to absorb the Ki into his own until, eventually, he felt his body hitting its limit. His points now increased from 200 to 300.

Looking at the beasts and still having both of his buffs activated for the fight, Ray started to smile. He lifted his hand and fired out two fireballs at the same time.

As they left the palm of his hand, two huge giant balls of flame only a little bit smaller than the hounds themselves had come from his hand.

When they saw the fireball coming towards them, the beasts even knew they wouldn't be able to do anything.

The flames engulfed their entire bodies and ashes fell to the ground. The only thing left on the floor was their beast crystal.

"Did he just kill two advanced tier shadow beasts with a single spell!?" Springett said.

It seemed like everyone on the battlefield had paused for a second to witness Ray's immense power.

"Now I'm coming for you!" Ray said, staring at Wiz.
