Reborn To Become A Heavenly Serpent - Chapter 5

“Ding!”

“Evolution completed.”

A motionless robotic voice trembled through the medium inside this nest of mine. To no wonder, I was awakened by the abrupt mechanical voice as I slowly unwrapped my scaly eyes.

A surge of weariness immediately barraged my body that could be roughly interpreted as uncomfortable. It felt like I had been crammed inside a small box and finally been let out after 24 hours.

I slowly drifted my gaze about as I veered it around and finally towards my body. To my surprise, a huge change had occurred from last night that my body is no longer the same as before!.

I had grown larger!… this is such a welcomed surprise though it should have been expected.

This directly brings to my muscle being squeezed in this tight corner that I was sleeping in yesterday.

I hurriedly move away from there just to finally feel a bit better. Having a bit of room to sniff some fresh murky air inside this hole.

“System how long have I been asleep?… ”

I hastily asked with interest.

“Ding answering back to the host. The host had been asleep for 5 hours straight”

“I see… so this means that my next evolution will take even longer… I can already see the pattern.”

I made this ȧssumption after careful thoughts were put into this.

“Ding… yes host is correct.”

“Anyway… system I had constantly been wondering this one thing. why is it that even though I had not been eating for a very long time but my body still doesn’t feel hungry?…”

“Ding replying to the host. The system had modified the host’s new body to not be influenced by hunger. Even if the host were not to eat for hundreds of years… the host still won’t feel hunger.”

“Well, that’s very useful!… with this I don’t have to expend my time searching for victims just to fulfill my starvation. Killing alone is enough… though having a taste of food here and there won’t hurt.”

After hearing from the system description. I unhurriedly sprawled my body as I investigated if there is any major difference rather than the size increase.

“system open my panel”

“Ding”

Evolution points needed for the next evolution: 10000

“This?? 10-10000 evolution points??!!!… system why did the required points suddenly leaped so high?”

“Ding… answering back to the host. The next advancement will affect host essence and a big adjustment will be made as such the amount 10000 would only be logical.”

“I-I see… hahaha”

“Host doesn’t need to feel demoralized. Over time host will be able to acquire enough points for the next evolution”

“O-okay? thank you?”

‘Since when did this system have an emotional support function ‘

I secretly guessed…

Next, I drifted my attention towards my skill as I began to evaluate them.

To no surprise, all of them had been upgraded. And I’m very surprised with the first skill development…

But of course, this is merely my silly thoughts.

” System what time is it now?…”

“Ding… it’s 00:00 am”

“midnight huh… I guess I will be sleeping for now and proceed on my hunting tomorrow.”

“Ding… if the host wishes to. The system can turn off host consciousness when the host is asleep. ”

“T-this?!!? you can do that?”

I asked in disbelief since such function is otherworldly. It’s similar to an AFK farming game back in my previous life.

“Yes, host. this system was constructed to support the host in every way possible. turning off host consciousness for some time is simply a breeze.”

“But won’t that indicates that I won’t feel the process of sleeping?”

“No… the host body will still experience the sleeping process and nothing will be altered except that host will feel it pass in the blink of an eye”

“Hiss??… that is simply otherworldly. then do that for me… the faster I can wake up tomorrow the faster I can continue with my hunting.”

“Ding instruction was utilized by the user… turning off host consciousness in 3…”

Hearing the sudden metallic noise…

Panic engulfed my mind as I tried to stop this foolish system from taking in the wrong instruction.

“Huh, we-wait!”

“2…”

“at least let me find a good sleep-!”

“1…”

*Plopped*

My body crashed softly onto the cold ground…

As my tongue lingered about outside of my mouth… tasting the flavor of dirt as my saliva seeped about.

“…”

“Good night host…”
