Her body ached after the fight and although her energy was high she still felt exhausted and although her body could reform and repair she still felt the pain from everything that happened. Qu then tried to explore her magical potential, she first tried to see how far her flames could go, but to her surprise they could barely reach her wrists. It seemed that another factor made it so that she could reach such levels with her fire magic. she then tried to infuse her dream venom into her flames once again, this had worked and the flames morphed to a green colour. soon after this, a notification appeared informing her that she had gained the ability dream venom flame.

after this quick exploration of some of her abilities she started to ponder over the human form she gained. This new form seemed to be similar to the humanoid form she was using now, with the only true difference being the small flaming tips on her fingers. But even they could be controlled so that they are barely noticeable, and her evolution points seemed to be of some importance. Just as she was about to come to a verdict the system appeared before her eyes.

-----

"the human race are a diverse species with an almost unlimited potential, this would allow the user to make many combinations (like your dire rat) in the future"

-----

Qu completely ignoring the systems sudden sentience then took all of this in and chose to use this species, she then willed her possible transformation menu to appear and selected her only option and evolved into a human.

-----

'20 hour stabilisation period has begun'

-----

her body seemed to be keeping the same shape, but her eyes turned brown and so did her hair. otherwise near nothing changed. Qu sat down and rather than sleep like she usually did she started to slowly take in the ambient fire mana in the air so that she may refine her own. Slowly her tightly wrapped faint aura appeared around her as she started the process.

Celebration was amidst the family, it had finally hit kenos birthday, and on this fateful day he has reached 16. After all this time and hard work he could register himself with the adventuring guild. Sadly be lived in but a small town so his guild was actually the bar down the road, but nonetheless it still had ties with the guild and anything he would do with the bar would be transported to the proper guild.

He had been one of the few in the town to harness magic, and he was lucky enough to get his family's natural affinity to earth magic. His older brother had gotten this too and had focused it all on boosting his strength, and it paid off, his brother had managed to break into a mighty uncommon class. Sadly kenos couldn't use the same methods as his older brother, he had tried many a time but he seemed to have been given a different speciality, rock creation and morphing. although cool it was the most common type of magical use, while his big brother's was a hard thing to master but if done could easily outshine someone like himself.

But despite all of this he made his was down to the bar, in there was a person he recognised, an archer that was on good terms with my brother. He was frantically screaming about a deer turning into a woman wielding green flames... Yeah he seemed to be on something stronger than beer. But after this all he even posted on the board a mission to hunt it down, and it had a large sum put up to it as well, 1 silver. that was enough to feed the family for a week and it could be all his if he just killed a deer in the forest.

so he accepted the mission and went back home, he grabbed his wand (which was a stick with a slight bit of mana infused into it) and headed out into the forest. He might as well humour the man in the bar and tried to see if he could sense any mana in the air, and although he couldn't sense the fire magic supposedly out there he did sense the familiar mana of his older brother. Seeing that his older brother was out there he went and started to track the mana so he could meet up with him, after about an hours walk he found some footprint as well as a small amount of weird mana in the air he couldn't really get a good idea of what type it was or where it was coming from. But nonetheless he chose to set up camp here as it would allow him to still have his brothers tracks and he was still relatively close to the village so he should be safe. So he channelled his mana through his wand and morphed the earth around him into a teepee made of condensed earth and mud. He then looked over to the setting sun and and lay down in the teepee while using his magic to put some loose dirt into the entrance so that no wild animals could get to him while he rested.

after a couple of hours of refining her mana Qu had brought it to 60% completion, it seemed that after 50% the difficulty greatly increased in raising your affinity with the element. After this she also noticed that her energy levels where around 10 so she didn't have long left until she would be forced to sleep so she made her way back to the tree she has rested in before. She lay down and slowly closed her eyes and the aches and pains of the day slowly ebbed away as she allowed herself to rest.
