Outcast

*Valoris Pov*

Following Vanor, I still struggle with moving my new body. I mean imagine you doubled in size overnight. The biggest problem I have currently is hunger. My body is on the verge of eating itself to survive.

As I am thinking, we arrive at a decent size room. there are times everywhere, along with 2, or three low tier wind and lightning treasures.

" This was my son's room, I left it as it was when he left. He kept most of his things here saying that once he found a place to start his own clan he would come back for them. It seems fitting I suppose that you make use of them.

Anyways I'm sure you are starving! Bring the food!" says Vanor.

I perk up when I see Rentil bring in a huge Abyssal Bear corpse. 11ft in length, covered in thick fur, and spines. Before Vanor even says anything I start tearing into the body, ripping pieces off just small enough to swallow.

As I eat I can feel the food sending massive amounts of energy to my heart and my core. They soak all the energy up before a wave of new dragon blood goes throughout my body making changes, and fixing things my body couldn't during my evolution.

*Vanor Pov*

As I watch Valoris tear into the abyssal bear with desperation. I'm curious, the level of starvation he is at means his evolution is basically only half done.

"What did his body spend all it nutrients on? I mean he is only 8ft long, and so skinny it's painful just to look at him which is very small for a wyrm" I think to myself.

After a few minutes of eating, I can see his body gaining muscle, and length at a visible rate. Also, his spines begin to grow as well, along with his fangs.

Finally, after devouring the entire body he goes off to a corner and passes out as I expected. Tomorrow I'm going to have Rentil test him. I want to see just how much he improved. Anyone who focused on body refinement as much as he did usually see their biggest gains after evolving.

Its because when you evolve, the biggest increases you see are in the area you trained the most. If you focused solely on mastering your element, you would see that your talent for using that element skyrocket. same for fighting, or body refinement.

Oh well, no matter what he will get stronger. even if I have to drag him kicking and screaming. More importantly, I think it's time I looked into this Bloody Fang clan. Where could they have gotten the idea for the Dragon God Bloodline? also, it's suspicious that they set up their clan right on the same spot my son died...

*Valoris Pov*

Waking up what feels like several hours later. I immediately notice something. I have gotten even bigger!

Getting up and moving around, I realize I'm about 13ft long now. And instead of looking like I'm on the verge of dying from starvation. I actually have some muscle on me now.

Excited, I start to do the first set of Demons Enduring Determination. Instead of it feeling like sharp claws ripping through my body like it usually does, I instead get a dull ache. I manage to complete the first set easily.

" This is the advantage of being born strong. The thing is I have to fight, and train to do they can finish easily." I think time myself before moving on to the next set.

Still only a dull ache, I manage to finish it easily, moving onto the 3rd set. This is where I had been before my evolution. Something that had taken me over a year to get to I managed in an hour.

Gritting my teeth, I feel the pain start to increase. Still nowhere near as bad as before I endure it. Using the frustration of being born weak, helpless to push through.

" I will get strong, stronger then anyone thought possible. So that everyone will know that even a weak kobold can reach heights that no one imagined!"

Finishing the 3rd set, something I had tried for months and was unable to do I move into the 4th set. The pain increases by a lot, cursing under my breathe I do the only thing I can. I endure if there's one thing I can boast about it's my ability to endure. Whatever you throw at me I can take!

My limbs begin to stake as I finish the 4th set. " Should I stop, or try for the 5th? Go for it! I'm already going to be behind everyone here. if my body can even stand a fight with them it's pointless being here!"

The feeling of sharp claws ripping through my body returns with a vengeance. I nearly collapse from the strain and I move through the forms.

" Endure! I WILL ENDURE! THIS IS HOW I WILL BECOME A DRAGON KING" I think as I wheeze for air, my limbs shaking, and muscle cramping.

Finally, I manage to finish it before collapsing onto the ground. Breathing hard as my heart starts to send dragon blood go various spots to within my body and improve them.

As I lay there in a wheezing mess, Rentil comes in, stops and looks at me weird and says.

"Uh...I can come back later?"

" ha...no... what's... up?"

"Grandpa wants me to test to see where you are at. You feel up for a fight?"

Grinning, I stand up with wobbling limbs and say.

" Of course! where at?"

" Follow me, Our branch of the clan has a private sparring arena," she says before leaving.

Scrambling, I try to follow her tripping constantly due to my body adjusting to its new size, and recovering from refining. After walking for nearly an hour, we arrive outside where a large flat clearing is at.

" Take an hour to recover, and get used to your new dimensions. Then I'm gonna beat on you so you know exactly how behind you are"
