Giza and Cuifer received the punishment provided by King Luke to them. To be exact, Cuifer was imprisoned in their village as the king knew he'll just have a new life if he was just simply kicking him out. While Giza was kicked out of the village to be responsible for his life, at the same time, he doesn't want to change the villagers' perspective just because he was his son.
...
Argh!
On the other hand, the man lying under the cliff groaned in pain as the small bird landed on his forehead and continuously hit him with its beak until he woke up.
He opened up his eyes, seeing the vague blue sky in front of him. By this, he rubbed his eyes to clear his vision.
"What's that-?"
He almost forgot what happened to him after a mild pain electrified his head. He rolled to the ground multiple times as he thought this was the best way to wash away the pain.
Meanwhile, the pain subsided so he leaned his back on the wall to help himself to analyze the current situation. In front of him were a blue elevated screen and the presence of the cliff.
[Great! You have successfully been promoted to bloody crow!]
Right, the reason why he passed out here was because of the first-tier of the first evolution. With this, he started now to realize the changes towards his body.
"Bloody crow? How's this first-tier evolution could beneficial for me?" He said in a deep tone, then waited for a couple of minutes before checking the multiple screens that appeared right before his eyes.

[To reach the first evolution, the host should collect the accumulated souls.]
His eyes were widened after reading all the information provided by the gaming system for him. In his mind, having the [bloody crow] could have been a big factor in him in this world based on what he saw on the screen. Yet, activating his father's gene was the one he didn't expect to happen.
To be exact, the dark crow's gene was a huge blessing to him. But the dire wolve's a gene? He didn't expect that it would come. Why? A mutant should just a specific gene as its body couldn't take it.
American scientists proved that combining the genes of humans and monsters could have an impact on a particular person. Yet, it had limitations as mutants should just inherit one of their parents' genes to maintain the balance and still could control their bodies.
Based on their experiments and observation, a mutant who had multiples genes died at a young age as their body would automatically self-destruct. But in his case, at the age of 21 years old, he managed to stay alive.
It was because he was transmigrated to the other world?
...
"How this could happen? Why did I inherit all my parents' genes?" He asked himself in a clueless tone, then placed his hand on his forehead as he felt something heavy there. "Horn?' Another question popped up inside his head but no one could answer it.
He pushed himself into a stood up position along with a shocked expression on his face. Yes, the horn was probably come from the dire wolve's gene, but the thing here was, why the dark crow's gene didn't show any trait for him.
He took a deep breath to calm himself so that he can perfectly analyze the current situation. "It is the thing that can answer by the knowledge inside my head. It's way better if I gather more information about this."
To explain his current outward appearance, his chest started to have dark fur, his innocent black eyes transformed into blue-red eyes, his body enlarge a bit, and the 6-centimeter red horn.
Next skills, it looked like the skill he obtained was focused on the flashy movements and massive damage against the opponents. Well, the [Target] skill was used to find the enemies with the given range. The [Fly] ability, of course, it already showed how this skill was way useful for him the same as the [Manifest] ability which allowed him to copy the monster's ability.
Soul? What was the deal with this one? Does he have to collect the monster's soul in order to reach the first evolution? That was the system trying to say to him. But why? It was just because of the dire wolve's gene? It can't explain everything by this. His title? It can't say for now.
To begin with, Riku felt something inside his body that was giving him an idea to hunt a monster in this forest and used their skills to them.
"I'm so confused right now! I can't think properly!" He said in a high tone, trying to restrain himself to would not see any type of blood. Rest, that was the exact thing he wanted to do as the invasion happened really exhausted him.
After a few were moments, he can't stop sensation inside his body. So he walked into the much deeper part of the forest, eager to use his new skills against the monsters.
"I can't hold it anymore! I can't help myself to kill any monsters here!"
After 10 minutes of making noise inside the forest and transpiring in the dangerous part of the forest. Alas, he succeeded to find a new type of monster.
It was one meter tall, had the body of a human, blue shining scales, sharp fang, and utilizing shimmering spear. It was a humanoid piranha, it was a new species of monster that could only find at the bitter lake.
He looked around, seeing the small lake peacefully flowing in this place. It was hidden behind the cliff and covered by the thick bushes, so it was hard to find. "well, it's farther than the lake we found for the western sections." He stopped for a couple of seconds and shook his head before adding these words. "I should stop thinking about the village's problem as I have important things to do in my life. I admitted that I was attached to Arisu, but I have to come back to the world where I belonged."
Arisu was the woman who helped him when he came to this village. But for some reason, there was intercourse that happened between them. Yes! The virginity he was holding for too long, he gave it to the woman living in the real. His reason was anytime he can die so it was way better if he used his weapon. Also, he was already fell in love with her there was nothing bad about that.
First thing first, he should fight the monster in front of him cause even though he gained a lot of strength and skills. Still, this monster can deal huge damage to him, and worst-case scenario getting killed.
Swish!
A humanoid piranha was doing some tricks with its spear, confident that it can kill this man without making any problem.
Swoosh!
The monster charged directly towards him, positioning the spear's endpoint.
[Thrubbing spear!]
Suddenly, the monster gathered blue magical power in its arm, the range of its weapon increased. Yet, for Riku, that monster's swift movement wasn't enough for his eyes to could not see it.
He barely changed his position, letting the spear pass on his shoulder. After that, he used his palm to push the monster.
Boom!
A mild explosion transpired near the lake as the monster whacked to the boulder that can be found in the area. "Eh? I'm just planning to push the monster a little bit... Why was it sent far away from my current location?" He said in a clueless tone, then focused himself on the monster charging at him as it already regained its footing.
[Horn ligament!]
Riku was feeling severe pain while he was pulling the sword on his forehead which was his horn.
Boom!
Another explosion happened as the lightning magical power hit the monster.
