"Interesting. A Dragon who is also an otherworldly demon?"

Eh? Who is…?

"And it carries a truly powerful Unique Skill."

"It has advanced to this stage in merely three months…"

What…? Ungh… Am I dreaming?

"Sigurd, you fool, it seems that my revenge might be sooner than you expected! Hahaha!"

Who is it?

"Good… Let's see how far you can go, little one… Your and your people… Let me give you a small, little hand… And might your path be filled with the souls and blood of those that oppose you."

Eh?!

"Oh, and you better make sure to grab the loot! A true dragon requires a good treasury!"

[Day 92]

What the heck was that? I think someone spoke to me while I was sleeping.

Just what was that?

It had the voice of an old man with a cracking noise that even made my soul feel chills.

It was a nightmare, right?

I couldn't possibly be… something else, right?

Ding!

<You've received the [Divine Protection of the Great Dragon God of Greed, Fafnir]>

Excuse me?!

<You've Ranked up to Rank 3: Initial Stage!>

<You've evolved into [Spectral Death Winter Dragon]!>

<Your Soul Cultivation has reached the Soul Core Creation Realm (Peak Stage)!>

<All your stats have increased!>

<You've developed a new Mana Core!>

<You learned the [Death Magic: Level 1] Skill!>

…I see.

WHAT?!

When? How?

<Answer>

<Last night, you reached the level of energy to reach Rank 3, but instead of being given options when you were to wake up, a Divine entity intervened with your evolution and infused a part of their soul into your own in the form of a Divine Protection, automatically evolving you in the process.>

Are you for real? This feels like I am tripping.

<Answer>

<Yes, I am for real.>

Okay, no need to be so casual…

Wait, did I cause some commotion while evolving?!

I quickly stood out of bed, as I saw Benladann comfortably sleeping in bed, nothing had changed… Oh, except me.

Some of my scales had become darker, and my head now had a giant helmet-like exoskeleton made of pure hardened dark and bright azure scales, I looked truly terrifying, especially because my eyes were glowing with aquamarine and yellow-gold colors.

My claws became a bit like sharp bones instead, and my tail also gained coverture made of scales that shaped themselves as plates of bone-like armor.

I really just evolved.

And my soul also felt way stronger.

Who blessed me again?

Fafnir? So there are Gods, actual gods here… it wasn't just some myth, they exist!

And Fafnir seems to be a Great Dragon God, huh…

"System, how strong is this being compared to Mana Core Ranks?"

<Answer>

<From the information extracted from the divine protection, it could be said that Fafnir is a being at Rank 9.>

A being at Rank 9?! And what did it wanted with me?!

<Answer>

<It has most likely chosen you as its mortal herald, a Hero of sorts>

Eh? Me? The humble me?

<Answer>

<It most likely has high expectations on you due to your Unique Skills and your incredibly fast progress, don't disappoint him>

Sheesh… Alright.

And… Oh right, was the message right, did I just got another Mana Core?

<Answer>

<Indeed, the divine protection triggered a special evolution that formed a second Mana Core within your stomach, this is a Mana Core of Death Attribute and Null Attribute, currently, they are at Rank 1 Initial Stage, you will require to refine them and increase their cultivation separately from your Rank 3 Mana Core of Ice and Wind. I have adjusted the System to show these changes in more detail, please, check your status>

So that just happened…

I glanced at my stats with awe, they had increased a lot. And I was a man that was easily satisfied by seeing numbers getting bigger, sadly… So I was weak to this.

But this… this! This is insane! And I even got Death Magic to boot!

Though it is only Rank 1… How do I cultivate this second Core?
