Terra Online

"So how do we do this evolution stuff" I ask. "Just relax and think of a city the houses, the castle that houses the lord of the city and most importantly the walls of the city that protect" Tusker says.

As I imagine the things I begin to feel drowsy, and an itching feeling begins all over my body. "Try not to sleep as long as you can" Tusker says in a calm voice. Following the instruction I stave of sleeping for what feels like a minute until I can't and the world goes black.

When I wake up the itching feeling is gone and I am back in my room aboard the ship. "That was intense" I say as I wipe my head only to feel something on my skin. Looking at my hand I see that it is covered in tiny red scales that feel just like my skin.

My nails now are talons as my fingers have been transformed into claws. "This is the most you can transform into as you slept before you could finish the process" Tusker says in my mind. "Now you have t wait for another major event probably your second death before you can further transform into a dragon.

"Can I change back into a human" I ask. "Not until the transformation is complete so for now no" Tusker replies."I didn't grow horns right" I ask. "No but you will in time" he replies. "Later I need to rest". With that the voice in my mind goes quiet.

With nothing to do I get used to the new look. Claws that can dig a hole into wood just by pressing my finger into it" I could get used to this" I say to myself."Mr. Michael supper is ready" a voice calls outside my room.

Casting illusion magic I receive the tray of food from the elf at my door.

For days I focus on increasing my mana points as if I had enough I might have escaped after killing the blood rose. Standing on the deck I watch as another ship gets closer to us and when we are side by side some goods are transported from ship to ship then we leave. The transaction happens six times on the journey and the island she wanted us to stop on was uninhabited though we left some things there as we left.

Finally we have reached the human continent, docking at the nearest port I leave my room and make my way to the deck where once again the captain is yelling at her crew members. "Until we meet again" I said to the captain as I leave. "Time to find these guys before they are wiped out" Tusker says to me.

Bringing up the map I see that the nearest known sighting of lizard men is .five hours east is the forest of Night on the map that's the closest place .leaving the port city before anybody can notice my illusion I follow the road till it is parallel to the forest then I leave it.

"How to find monsters" I wonder out loud .usually a player just moves around a d attacks anything he sees but since I don't want to anger the local population I just can't attack anything I see. "This is more stressful than I thought" I tell tusker.

Boom! The sound of explosion rocks the forest somewhere to the south of where I am.

Running towards the sound I see a sight that seemed to be mocking me.

Hundreds of humans are storming a wooden wall that is being defended by lizard men .walking to towards the humans I see some wagons that are been tended by an old man and a young boy. "Excuse me, what kingdom am I in" I ask.

"Young man this forest is in the kingdom of Fenalis" the old man replies."Ok and are there children of the goddess around here" I inquire.

"Yes though none of them can be compared to the commander Arthur and his sister Morgana who are heroes of the kingdom" the man comments with pride.

"That's a pity" I say with a smile as I remember the siblings that imprisoned me weeks back. "Why do you say so" the old man asks.

"They are about to die for the second time" I say as I drop the illusion on my hand and pierce his chest then I pull out his heart. The teen beside him is paralyzed with fear as I drop the illusion revealing my new form.

"Monster" the ten stutters as he tries to walk backwards. "Indeed I am a monster" I say as I swipe my claws at his throat and watch the fountain of blood that erupts from his throat. "Let's see if I can breathe fire without using mana" I whisper as I inhale deeply thinking of a dragon fiery breath and exhale.

The burst of fire that comes out incinerates the rear of the human force attacking the town. "Behind us" a soldier yells as I grab the shoulder of the nearest person to me with my left hand and with my right hand holding his sword arm I rip the arm from his body with pure strength.

Picking the sword I ask tusker" how many are here". "About five hundred or so" he replies. "Take care if the soldiers I have some friends to see" I tell Tusker as he materializes as a dragon made entirely of fire.

Charging into the mass of soldiers Tusker burns anything that gets close to him as he moves. "First let's get me some dead mages" I whisper as I use the spell lightning step to teleport and appear in the midst of several robed persons.

"Hello, time to die" I say to the mages as I begin killing them. "Even as there isn't anything similar to classes like other games the players still play like they have classes with mages boosting their intelligence stat mostly" I think to myself as I behead a mage and dodge the ice spike fired by another.

Concentrating on the ground around me I pour mana into it and spikes erupt from under the mages killing most of them.

Suddenly a fireball hits my back but the pain is like an insect bite, something I can ignore. "Wow these scales are not just for show" I think as I shoot a burst of lightning at the mage responsible for the fireball. "Rush him, don't give him time to rest" a familiar voice yells.

"Grabbing one of the mages I use her as a meat shield against the ice spikes that are coming my way. Tossing her dead body at her colleagues I jump into the sky and release a dragon breath at the mages

Looking around as I fall I see that the soldiers that had entered the town have been forced to retreat as I have disturbed their cover fire and Tusker is destroying those outside.

"Arthur come out don't make me chase you" I yell at the disarrayed soldiers. The soldiers part to reveal a knight riding a horse.

The armor of the knight is amazing; with a white chest plate decorated with an eagle and other parts of the armor emitting a faint glow. "How do you know my name monster" he asks.

"Ah, so you have forgotten me" I sigh. Teleporting to his spot I plunge my hand into the flank of his horse forcing him to jump off before the horse fall downs.

"I mean I killed you after all but you still forget me that am just a shame" I tell him when he unsheathes his sword.

"Michael so you are now a monster" a voice says. Turning to the voice I see Arthur's sister Morgana walking towards her brother. "How did you get like this" Arthur asks me.

"Ask me again after kill you" I yell. "Tusker, if you would burn everything in sight it will be very much appreciated" I yell as the dragon that was in active becomes more destructive leaving me to face the two commanders alone.

Michael

Rushing at Arthur I slash at him with my claws. Raising his sword he blocks the slash but the force behind it pushes him away. "Such brute strength" Arthur says in wonder as a fireball hits my back. Looking around I see Morgana chanting for another spell.

Inhaling a deep breath, I exhale a burst of flame at Morgana just as she finishes her incantation. The fire meets with a barrage of ice spikes and mist forms covering the area around us. Around us I can hear the screams of soldiers as Tusker kills them in dozens.

Opening my inventory I equip an orc axe I had picked up before. Casting a wind spell the mist is blown away and I can see that the siblings are now together.

Heaving the battle axe I charge at the siblings dodging the occasional fireball and ice spike .just before I reach them I throw the axe at Arthur forcing him to duck. Seizing the chance given I move to Morgana before she can retreat.

"Wrath of the lightning king" I whisper as my body begins to glow. This was one of the spells I learnt at the abandoned house but the mana I had until now was not enough to use the spell.

The lightning gathered in my body shoots at Morgana at close range changing into the head of a dragon as it hit her head on.

As I watch her body spasm from the shock I feel a pain in my shoulder. Looking at the shoulder I see a sword half way into my body stopped only by the strong scales I now have. "Holy light" the owner of the sword Arthur yells as the sword begins to glow and the pain increases as the sword burns my muscles and flesh.

Grabbing the sword I ignore the burning pain on my palms as I wretch the sword out of his grasp.wih a back handed slap that pushes Arthur some meters away I turn back to his sister who is trying her best to stand up even with her body still receiving small aftershocks.

"Time to deal with you" I whisper. Watching out for any sign of an attack I walk up to her, Arthur's sword in hand. "You are just very unlucky o meet me today" I say to her as I behead her with one swing of the sword.

Acting on instinct I move to the side as a sword almost as big as me strikes where I was standing previously. "Wow that would have killed me" I think to myself as I look at the split in the ground the sword made on impact.

The user of the sword is a human probably a player wearing brown clothes with no piece of armor on his body."I didn't know a boss level monster would be here but I am glad I came" the person yells as he swings his large sword at me. "Who do you think you are calling an npc" I ask the swordsman as I dodge his swings.

"Razor, leave him this is my fight" Arthur says as he too tries chopping me into two with is new glowing sword. "Sorry but I need the exp to level up and he might drop good loot" the swordsman says dismissing Arthur. Seeing that he was ignored Arthur charges at me with a overhead strike which I block with the sword I collected from him.

"Sorry Mr. Swordsman I am not an npc but I have a quarrel with Arthur here" I say as I parry Arthur's sword towards him forcing him to retreat a bit.

"Oh so you are player" the swordsman asks stopping mid swing .taking the chance I cast quicksand on the ground below him. As he struggles with the sinking ground I dive at him piercing his heart with my claws. 'At the end he was all brute strength and no sense' I think to myself as he dies.

"Now we can continue our fun" I say to Arthur as I notice the amount of soldiers is less than fifty. Gritting his teeth Arthur raises a horn at his hip and blows it. The soldiers hearing this sound begin to retreat as fast as they can. "You are not going to escape me" I yell as Arthur runs towards his men.

Looking around I notice Tusker has gone back into me. "Do you know any spell to kill all of them in one shot before they scatter into the forest" I ask him."I do but I doubt if you are strong enough for the spell to work. "Don't bother just give it to me" I yell as Arthur is almost at the edge of the surrounding forest.

Then chant for the spell flashes in front of me and I read them out. "Falling star prince of the cosmos I ask for your aid send forth your arm and scatter my enemies with meteor shower" I chant. As I finish the spell I can feel all my mana drain and I cough out large blobs of blood.

The sky is covered with three large meteorites the size of a truck within seconds they crash on the soldiers killing everyone including Arthur whose death brings a smile to my face even as I lose consciousness.
