[Timer for your evolution process has now ended!]
[You will now begin your evolution.]
Once that message faded away, my legs suddenly gave out. It was a feeling that one could only imagine if they had both of their leg tendons severed.
Then as I lay on the ground with my face towards the sky, I began thinking of all the progress I made in the past three months. I can remember almost every human I've killed, beasts not so much.
During the last month I learned how to handle death far easier than before.
I learned how to take the lives I took with pride, and not to disgrace my kills by stating that they died at the hands of another.
I guess this is the result of having to run, hide, trick and kill for a month. I'm just glad that I was only given a month or else, I would have ever up mentally worse.
'What were their names? Clare, Dustin, Justin, Luward, those were the only real people I've had a reason to kill. Those Golden members were just a matter of survival, who knows what they would have done to me once I was captured.'
Once I conclude my thoughts I came to notice most of my vision filling up with blood, it even began to leak down from both eyes. Then my arms began to flail around my body until suddenly breaking into parts poking throw my skin.
"Ahhh!" I raged out in pain as quietly as I could. Even now I was still trying my best to not alert beasts.
The same process occurred with both of my legs, and both of my kneecaps popped throughout my skin. This time the pain was almost three times worse.
All the movement lead to my arms hurting far more than, to begin with. That along with my kneecaps practically made the pain unbearable.
Then I was luckily given some time to rest before the next stage. I had already lost a lot of blood and had begun to feel lightheaded long ago.
"Huff, Huff, Huff."
First I struggled to breathe calmly. Then my breaths became more short and erratic after the next part.
My ribs began to poke through my skin leaving all the flesh attached behind, slowly, and one by one.
Then they launched off into the trees and would land meters away. Then my body began to shake wildly, finally firing all of the bones out of my body. Leaving me as a head and heart with no support other than my spine.
Then a stream of notifications began to fly into my view, though all I could see was red. And I could only hear the female system voice read them out.
[-1 Life force!]
[-1 Life force!]
[-1 Life force!]
[-1 Life force!]
'Wait no, is this really how I'm going to die!?'
The notifications began to climb up to nine and then they stopped.
And it wasn't soon after until I began to feel a cool refreshing feeling all over my body. And unknown to me at the time, my skin began to fade from a very light brown color to a completely pale skin tone.
Then I received another notification.
[Your maximum health has been increased from ten to thirty!]
[20/30 Life Force]
[Your bones will now be recreated from scratch. Please select the color of your Wendigo Skin, choose from black, brown, or white.]
'White!'
Then once my bones were reconstructed, and fur began to grow all over my skin, the evolution was now complete!
It took me thirty minutes to recover after the evolution.
[Your race has now been changed from Human to Wendigo!]
[You've unlocked the Bloodline Skill Spine Whip, along with the Wendigo Race Affinity Bone Manipulation, an Affinity which only Rank and Grade 2 High tier Wendigo possess.]
'Bone Manipulation, Spine Whip! I'm like an evil mage in video games!'
[Bone Manipulation -
This power can be increased by feasting on human or magical beast bones. The user can create set skills with this ability and fire bones or bone fragments from their body or body parts. Though they can only control bones from within their bodies until they reach a higher level of mastery]
[Bone Manipulation - Beginner]
"Well, I never want to have to do that again," I said as I stood up from the ground.
"Since when can beasts have affinities other than the normal ones like fire, earth, water, air, light, and dark?"
"Also, why am I so tall?" I said aloud and quickly noticed that I was one, speaking in another language or tongue completely. Secondly, I was way taller than normal, and if I had to compare this height to my old one then I would say that I'm currently around eight feet tall.
"So I'm in my Wendigo form then, or is this how I'm going to live the rest of my life?"
[You have achieved Spirit level five and have gone through your first evolution, thus you have been given access to the Market Place tab. Your system will also now have the ability to answer any questions.]
"Really! wait why am I all happy, you bastard, you should have already been able to do that!" I said aloud, well it was more like a long growl and a few snarls.
"Alright then System, give me a breakdown of my new Wendigo Form. Also, will I remain like this forever?" I asked the system while sprinting back towards my home away from home.
'Ding!'
[When the skull icon which can be found around your left side field of vision is white. That means that your Wendigo Form is toggled On and when it is black that means you have reverted to your lesser Human form.]
"I guess that makes sense."
[In your Wendigo form you will grow white coated fur, reach a height of eight feet, and can use your bloodline skills and affinity or affinities. As for more physical changes, you have half of a deer skull attached to your face.]
[Also you will only remain inside of your Wendigo form for a total of five minutes, one minute per spirit level.]
"Alright, I guess this will be applied to my skill complete transformation. This whole skull icon must be because of my complete transformation skill. Though there are benefits besides the physical ones, System, show me my entire status." I ordered my new profound system, which I believe to be far more helpful than the last.
[Sorry Host, I must record your two newest skills before proceeding.]
[Spine Whip - The Host may remove their spine for ten minutes and can inflict piercing damage. And a new spine will be regrown instantly, using Life Force. This skill has a cooldown time of one day!]
[New System Skill obtained from surviving evolution and while having two skills beforehand!]
[System Skill - Inspect!]
[Inspect - You will be able to see the health and maximum Ki of a selected target. As well as the stats of an opponent. This skill has a cooldown of twenty minutes!]
"Seems like things are going to be getting far more interesting from now on. Not only do I have these skills, but I have Ki and my affinity and have to take the Golden entrance exams."
[As requested.]

"250 Ki needed until my next level up?! Just what are you on nowadays system!" I said as my body was engulfed in a flash of dark red light and I returned to my human form.
"It seemed like I received just temporary extra stat points when using complete transformation. The same when using Partial Transformation."
"Anyways, I've got better things to be doing at this hour! No matter how much I want to begin testing my new affinity, I must first make it back and talk with Ka'dar and wake up and take the entrance exams…then and only then will I begin testing my new skills."
"This is going to be a very tiring week."
