------------------------
Zenon was staring at the status window after the usual meditation section.
The skill [appraisal] can check other people's status. But only after that person give their permission.
Normally no one will someone else their status.
But ofcourse, this problem can be solved by some moderate 'sparring'.
Violence cannot solve everything. But it can solve most of the problems.
After few analysis and cross-checks he came to a few conclusions.
First, not everyone one has their information shown on status window. It differs from person to person.
Come to think of it, it's only logical.
Otherwise can wild animal read and write?
Well, dragons can. Draconic language is an language is innately known to all dragons.
Although young drakes can't write, they can instinctively understand this particular language.
It is similar to the case of status window.
They can instinctively sense the data.
Second conclusion is that the unit used for stats differ for each person.
It means, if a ant has strength 100, but gorilla has only 10.
But when confronted with each other, gorilla may win overwhelmingly.
It means stats do not apply universally to measure strength, but it can only used to determine how much a person improved during their lives.
Zenon doesn't know what is the use for measuring growth, but he only know the more stats one have, the better.

Today is a significant day in Zenon's lizard life.
Because yesterday,he was kicked out of home!
Why? It wasn't anything special in their community.
The cave he was originally living belonged to his mother Ria.
Drakes are species who values strength above anything else. If one is stronger than his peers,that means he is senior in hierarchy.
Age and bloodline hardly matters.
Because of his series of fighting sessions, he is feared and respected among drakes of his generation.
Because he can stand in equal footing against advanced rank opponents,they consider him as a peer.
Likewise,since he can fend off troubles for himself, he is considered an adult.
Though,he was only less than a year old, his 'coming of age ceremony' was yesterday,which was simply tossing him out to streets and closing the door.
Simple, brutal and efficient!
Though he was grumpy at first, he eventually came into terms with reality.
What he next did was finding new home. Which was simple. Just find a convenient cave and kickout the inhabitants.
This time,he did not find advanced rank opponent. Because although currently he can fight on equal terms with them, winning was still an arderous task.
He simply didn't have offense strong enough to do that,yet. Overcoming thick defence and vitality of draconic species is a bit tough job.
And there is still task for him to do-
Which was hunting.
As an 'adult' in the society,he has to find his own food. He was quite looking forward to his first hunt.
The general hunting location of the creatures in the mountain is the forest and valley below.
Zenon reached the forest and started to look for prey.
With his [super sense] skill, all ambushes are meaningless for him,and can steer clear of troublesome opponents.
It wasn't long before he found his first prey.
It was wild bison with two meter long body.
It has very tough skin,well defined muscles, thick curved horns and it has long hair like a gotee.
From the aura he can sense, it should be peak of intermediate rank, not far from advanced rank.
From it's movements it seems he wasn't detected.
He contemplated whether he should go for an ambush or go for frontal fight.
After some deliberation he decided to go for frontal assault.
If it was advanced rank,then he should definitely have went for ambush.
Although he was battle maniac and hot blooded,he was no way dumb.
Fighting a strong and unknown enemy head on was a needless risk. He was in no way an invincible existence,yet. There is no need to take excessive risk in that case.
But now seeing that the opponent and he was in same rank and he was of a superior race, he decided to have a lengthy battle and get familiar with the species.
Zenon first used skill [aura control] and reduced his aura to appear slightly weaker than he currently is, hiding his sharp edge carefully.
He now appeared as a weak and innocent drake who was on his virgin hunt.
For those who seeing him first time,he is not a clear threat. No one would take him seriously.
So did the bison.
As soon as it so Zenon, it charged ahead.
It's horn now lit up with a mild red glow.
Zenon's senses told him that,if he got hit by that attack,he will suffer serious internal damage.
But ofcourse,he has no intension of getting hit.
The movement of the charging creature appeared telegraphed in his senses.
"Slow."
He deftly side stepped and circled around with a masterful Slithering steps and nudged it's frontal limb with his tail on the precise moment.
The charging creature lost its footing and smashed against a tree.
Bang!
The thick tree has visibly damaged.
The disoriented bison got on its foot again, initiating another charge.
Zenon calmly sidestepped and gave a back kick on its side.
The bison was once again on the ground.
The situation repeated similarly.
The muscular bison was so thoroughly enraged that it's eyes turned crimson.
After the situation kept repeating, Just when zenon was about to deal a finishing blow,
"Moooooo..."
It let out an enraged roar and a special transformation began to take place.
"What's happening?"
Zenon was very intrigued by the change the creature was undergoing.
