In his tower of magic, an aging adept studied forbidden spells. The spellcaster was renowned for his mastery of dark magic. However, he searched for more powerful magics to sustain his life. This led him to study ancient tomes of forbidden magic.The adept summoned shades of death and made deals with shadowy spirits. He mastered many dark spells. However, he failed to find the secret of immortality. In fact, the dark powers he studied threatened to consume him instead.The adept was determined though. He was determined to achieve immortality. Other memories soon followed, but even they faded into darkness until finally I regained consciousness. I reminded myself that I really needed to think before I acted. However, for now I had better things to do, such as looking at the new notification that had popped up. ACHIEVEMENT - DRACONIC EVOLUTION ADVANCED: Although you are extremely small for a Twilight Dragon wyrmling, you have become a True Dragon.ACHIEVEMENT - DRACONIC SORCERY UNLOCKED: You have gained access to draconic sorcery and draconic abilities. Draconic racial memories will begin to unlock. I couldn't wait to look at my information sheet. After opening it, I quickly looked for any changes. One of the first things that I noticed was that I was no longer considered tiny. I was now a small creature. However, even without looking at my information sheet, I could have told that. If I tried to stand up, I was sure that I would be at least three feet tall.Curious about what would happen, I tried to change into my kobold form. Nothing happened though. Since I had successfully changed before by using the Alter Self spell, I tried that spell again. Almost immediately, I was able to shapechange back into a kobold. However, this time, my kobold body was as big as a kobold adult.Unlike before, I no longer needed to concentrate on keeping the kobold form. Apparently, I did need to use the Alter Self spell to change between the two forms though. Unlike before, however, I didn't need to concentrate. I just needed to use the Alter Self spell to make the change.I was tempted to change back into a dragon since I knew the kobolds revered dragons. I would definitely get more respect if I appeared as a dragon, even if I was the smallest dragon in the entire world. That was because even white dragons, which were the smallest species of true dragons, were much larger than me. In fact, when a white dragon wyrmling was born, they were twice as large as I presently was. Maybe I was feeling playful or just wanted to give Dróttinn a heart attack, but I had a vague idea of transforming in front of him just to see his reaction. Smiling at that thought, I looked at the other changes.While I had expected to gain an additional six health points, I actually gained a lot more than that. After studying the information sheet, I realized that I had a new addition to my classes. Now, dragon had been added as a class However, instead of a level, it was based on my evolution. Wondering if it would provide any additional information, I clicked on the Dragon next to my class.

I smiled, very happy that the system was providing me with more information. I was also ecstatic when I noticed that if I leveled up to level twenty, I would become a dragon god. Although it might only be a title, and not an actual god, it was still amazing.My information sheet was starting to look ludicrous. The current number of spell points I possessed, the abilities, the gifts, the class features, all of it was simply unbelievable. Even my physical attributes had changed. My strength and constitution had exploded. My strength had doubled from seven to fourteen points. My constitution was just as high as my strength, which after thinking about it for a moment, probably explained the extra health points.Although I was extremely small, I packed a lot of power for my size. While any normal dragon wyrmling could probably wipe the floor with me, at least physically, I was definitely much more powerful in the magic department. Even though I should have been pleased by how powerful I was, something about being a physically weak dragon bothered me. I knew it shouldn't though. Afterall, I was much stronger than almost any other race.That wasn't even taking into account the fact that my armor class had increased by one. I had even gained immunity to necrotic damage. Although that didn't seem nearly as useful as fire immunity, I was still happy to have it. Pushing those negative thoughts aside, I tried to see if there were any other changes. "Oh, nice. I must have gained a class feature when I reached the sixth level of wizard." I clicked on it to see if there was any additional information. Twilight's Descent: Starting at 6th level, whenever you must make a saving throw, you gain a bonus to the saving throw equal to your highest mental attribute's modifier. In addition, enemies within a number of feet equal to your level must subtract your highest mental attribute's modifier from their attacks against you. "Wow. Talk about an overpowered protagonist. If this were a novel, I would be wondering about the author living vicariously through the character he created." Still, I wasn't about to complain about receiving yet another extremely powerful feature. Even better was the fact that it was a passive ability. I didn't even have to worry about using it.One thing I did have to worry about using, was what to do with my clothes. While they would still fit me in my kobold form, I wasn't sure how they would work with my dragon form. Would I have boots on my back legs? What would the robe look like on a dragon? Could I make it look like a belt or fingerless gloves? I would be mortified if I had to run around fully dressed in normal clothes while in dragon form.Despite everything that had changed, the most important change for me was a spell that I had learned when I leveled up. The spell was a first level spell named Dragonberry. With just a drop of blood, I could create up to ten dragonberries, they would appear in my hand and were infused with magic for twenty-four hours. Any creature could use an action to eat one of the dragonberries. Each dragonberry would restore one health point and would provide enough nourishment to sustain the creature for a day.I almost cried as I realized that I would never ever have to eat the dried "beef" again. Between this spell and the Bottle of Water, I would never have to worry about food or drinks again. I didn't even really care about the healing properties of the dragonberries. Just the fact that I wouldn't have to carry around a lot of food made me feel like I had won the lottery. Wiping away a little moisture from my eyes, I hastily bit my finger and cast the spell. Seeing the dragonberries appear in my hand broke something inside me. I couldn't help myself as emotions washed over me.I was afraid to eat one of the dragonberries though. While it would be hard to taste worse than some of the things I had eaten, I was afraid they might actually taste terrible. However, even then, it would be worth it. I popped one of the berries into my mouth and swooned. Although it wasn't delicious, it did taste okay, which was a vast improvement. Not only was I not eating worms, bugs, and spiders, I didn't have to stuff myself all day long every day with that trash.Now, all I had to do was eat a few dragonberries instead. I couldn't help myself, but slowly had to start waltzing around the room with the remaining berries held gently in my hand. Speaking of dragonberries, I stopped when I realized that since I was as large as an adult kobold, I might have grown some dragonberries of my own.
