Chapter 117: Crawler's Nest (7)

I don't know how much time has passed in the real world, but it was probably quite a while as I usually pass out for a long time. 

But as if the gods heard my question, a panel opened up in front of me. 

[Would you like to return?]

"Yes," I immediately answered. 

I blinked once. 

And then I reawoke on a cold stone surface. 

[Congratulations!]

[Small Quetzalcoatl's Fire (Snow)]

As I sat up, I realized we were still in the dungeon, so I ġrȯȧnėd in misery. 

My head felt like it was about to split open, and my back was killing me due to sleeping on such a hard surface for so long. 

But strangely, none of the girls were in sight, so I turned around, hoping they would be there. 

But nobody was there. 

In a panic, I jolted up, searching the empty stone room. 

"Did they go on without me?" I muttered until I heard the mixing and churning of flesh below me. 

I cringed a bit from the sound before glancing down. 

And there they were… well, kinda. 

To my surprise, they were going through the same process as me, which was being rebuilt from the bone and up. 

They looked pretty similar to their old self, but that wasn't what was on my mind. 

"How… How are they evolving… Huh? What? I'm so confused… T-they're humans, right?" I mutter, slowly backing away from their finished bodies. 

[Congratulations]

[Your blood kin have evolved]

[Your blood kin have discovered the system]

"W-what the hell is this?" I mutter, raising my head to read the sheer amount of notifications. 

Blood kin? Like, my children or my siblings? 

"Uh, my head," I suddenly hear Mia say as she sat up from her stone still position. 

Her hair stayed the same bright red. Her skin was maybe a bit clearer and maybe a bit paler than before, but nowhere near as pale as mine. I think she grew a bit as well… But the most noticeable part was her beautiful dark purple eyes that seemed to real me in. 

"Oh, Lucy!" She shouts, lunging towards me and pulling me in for a hug. 

Warm… 

"Want to have sėx?" She asks, causing me to blush. 

"N-no! We're in a dungeon now!" 

"I was just kidding," 

She chuckled a bit. 

"Woah… Wait, what are these?" 

Mia raised her head, looking behind my shoulder. 

"What? What do you see? Are there monsters?" I ask.

"No… It looks like a video game," 

So she really did unlock the system… 

I couldn't help but sigh as I had to accept this new fate. 

I don't know why I thought I was special, but at least I got a headstart ahead of everybody else. 

"That's the system," I reply, backing away from Mia. 

"System? What is a system?" 

"Like… Uhhhhh… You know those RPGs… They have like those skill boards… *sigh* Just say status, and you'll understand," 

I gave up trying to explain it to her as it was better just to show it. 

"Okay, status," She says before being frightened by the large panel that I ȧssumed appeared right in front of her. 

She stumbled back a bit, falling onto the other girls, waking them up. 

They all grabbed their heads as a migraine immediately bashed their heads. 

"I'm dying… Help me," Charna says as she rubs her temples. 

I just ignored her before taking a look at my own status. 

『Status』

You are reading story The Rise Of Quetzalcoatl at novel35.com

[Variant Skills: [Small Quetzalcoatl's Fire (Snow)] 

[Passive: [Photographic Memory] [Black Drakes Blood] [All Language Perception] [Acid Immunity] [Black Drakes Regeneration] [Fire and Lava Immunity] [Death Immunity] 

…

Hmmmmm… My status definitely shrunk… Was sacrificing all those skills a good idea? 

"Well, we'll see," I mutter before opening the explanation to each skill. 

[Stolen Tundra Crown]

[Rank: B+]

[Description: You have the crown accidentally stolen by an ordinary civilian of the Ice Empress. As returning it would've got them killed, they decided to keep it and use the power for themselves, creating their own kingdom that would last for an eternity.]

I mean… At least tell me what it does. 

[Aurora Borealis]

[Rank: A+]

[Description: You are able to harness the power of the northern lights. These lights fill you with a new sense of motivation. Your body becomes lighter, and your muscles become denser within just a few seconds of activating this skill.] 

This seems pretty handy. I can finally not only buff myself but the others as well.

[Snow Manipulation]

[Rank: C+]

[Description: You can manipulate small or large quantities of snow. But if somebody who is stronger than you uses this skill, or has a higher tier skill, you'll be unable to manipulate the snow they want to use.]

This would also be handy… If I found any ice dungeons. 

Plus, it's just snow. I don't really know what I do with snow. I mean, maybe it's super strong, compacted snow?

[Ice Reading]

[Rank: ???]

[Description: ???]

"Huh?" I accidentally blurt out loud. 

A skill with question marks… That either means I'm not strong enough to use it, or I need to unlock the rest through some series of events. 

[Glacier Wall]

[Rank: B-]

[Description: You summon a large glacier to protect you but be wary of using this inside enclosed spaces; otherwise, you'll crush yourself and your allies.]

Okay, this would be good for an open dungeon, but not this one. 

And finally… 

[Small Quetzalcoatl's Fire (Snow)] 

[Rank: ???]

[Description: Through the power of an ancient dragon, you can manipulate the sacred flame, which is able to adapt to any element in order to get its way. Only you can wield, harness, and use the power of this flame.]

[Bonus: This skill grows with you]

Just like I thought… 

"Okay, let's move onto the shop now," I mutter. 

.

[Shop]

[912267331 G] 

[Skill Book: Snake Necromancy] [10000 G]

[Weapon: Basic Macuahuitl] [1500 G]

[Potion: Healing Potion] [300 G]

… 

[Skill Book: Drizzle] [50000 G] 

[Weapon: Sun Stone Macuahuitl] [3000 G]

[Potion: Mana Potion] [500 G]

… 

[Skill Book: Feather Servant] [100000 G]

[Potion: Large Healing Potion] [1500 G]

[Potion: Large Mana Potion] [1800 G]

[Evolve for more options] - 

.

I snickered a bit upon seeing how cheap the shop is. 

Maybe the system didn't consider how brave I would be and enter so many dungeons… Or perhaps it already expected me to die. 

But, anyway, I still bought all the things, including a few hundred Large Healing Potions and a few hundred Large Mana Potions. 

This completely cut my gold stock in half, but it was worth it. 

"And finally, there is this," I mutter, reaching into my inventory and grabbing the skill book. 

"Wow, what is that?" Ethel asks, reaching towards my skill book, but I move it away from her. 

"Hey, check out your own system first, and then I'll tell you. I might even give you some skill books," 

"'Kay," She replied bluntly before saying "status" once again. 

[Would you like to use this skill book?]

[Yes]

[No]

Yes… 

[You have gained the following skill] 

.

[Feather Servant]

.

Let me see what it's all about. 

[Feather Servant]

[Grade: S-]

[Description: You have unlocked the final stage of the shop. It can no longer increase without the help of an external source. But besides that, this skill allows you to create a servant from one of your feathers that can fight alongside you. And the form of the servant will take your dėsɨrėd shape.] 

[Warning: You can only have two servants at a time. The number of servants you can have will increase with each evolution.]

I was just about to go activate the skill until I heard Astra scream. 

"W-where is Sophia?" She mutters. 

Her body was shaking, and it looked as if she had a panic attack. 

Oh, that's right. She's not here!

We all searched the room within a matter of a few seconds. 

A few of the girls tripped on their own feet due to them not being used to their new speed. 

"Ah, we were invisible during our evolution," I mutter upon thinking back. 

She probably went to try and go find us, thinking we left her behind. 

"SHIT! And the dungeon evolved!" I shout, holding my face.
