"Ugh," Caden jolted awake, sat on the bed, and exhaled a soft groan, inflicted with a sharp headache.
His head slightly tilting to see himself present inside a royal chamber "How did I get here?" He wondered.
He recalled everything, just a few monts ago....he had given Alyssa the command to behead the last Redman spy.
A few things occured and he passed out.
With a glance, he knew where he was.... This was the chamber prepared for him in the Red Crescent Palace.
Slowly getting out of the bed, "Soone brought here, is it Alyssa?" He muttered.
Just then, the wooden door creaked open. Caden’s attention was drawn towards the chamber’s entrance.
He locked eyes with his personal maid, Candy, and instantly her cheeks reddened as she quickly looked away.
"You...you...young master, you....you....you are awake?" Candy stamred, her sweat dripping down her cheeks.
She could hear her own heart beating faster.
Seeing this, Caden couldn’t help but smile. "Yes, I’m fine, but how did I get here?" He curiously asked.
"Th..three...three days ago, Your personal guard, brought you back, you were completely unconscious"
"She ca you were like that because of the countless bottles you drank, but it’s been three days since you were unconscious"
"Even Prince Aeros was already getting worried, he thought you might have been poisoned" Candy explained.
This ti, she was facing the ground, her cheeks still reddened. Her heart skipped a beat when she heard Caden’s giggle.
"He-he-he-he-he, so that’s how it happened huh? And where is she?" Caden asked.
"For so reason, she returned to the Red-Pool City not too long ago," Candy reported.
Caden’s eyebrows furrowed ’I guess she’s thinking of what to do with the bodies huh?’ He softly exhaled, "I should go et her, then," He stated.
Candy was stunned, instantly lifting her head "Eh?" She gulped, "But young master, you just woke up after three days, you need rest"
Caden’s smile broadened even more. "Thanks for worrying about , but I feel energetic today," Caden said while stretching his arms.
"Uhm" Candy paused for a second, "Could it be the reason why you’re looking different?" She asked.
Caden’s face instantly fell "What do you an by that?" He asked, but before Candy could even answer.
He dashed towards the bathroom, his movents ca to a halt as he stared directly at the mirror hung on the bathroom wall.
His eyes widened in shock "What the hell is going on?"
This was a miraculous transformation. Caden had grown three more inches tall, becoming 6’5.
He stood bare-chested, with muscles rippling beneath his skin like a serpent in motion.
His body was chiseled, with broad shoulders and defined abs that seed to shift and flex with every movent.
But it was his skin that was truly remarkable. "What is that?" His mouth agape as he stared at his reflection.
Draconic scales would appear and disappear at random, shimring in the light like molten lava.
The scales were a deep, rich purple, and seed to glow with an inner fire.
His eyes were an even more striking feature, glowing with an eerie purple light.
The draconic shape of his eyes seed to gleam with ancient wisdom, and his gaze was both hypnotic and intimidating.
He creased his face, still blinking his eyes in a bid to see if he was still dreaming or truly awake.
"What the hell happened to ?" He muttered.
Just as his head was filled with countless thoughts, trying to understand what exactly was going on.
The transparent cyan panel flickered before his eyes.
’Ding! ’
[Rebooting the Primordial System]
[The Primordial System has been updated to the latest version]
[Congratulations on your Leveling Advancent]
[Congratulations on your evolution]
Caden suddenly gulped, "Evolution? What are you talking about?" He asked.
[Reporting...]
[Host Caden has successfully completed his Leveling process and evolved into a Dragon-Kin]
"Huh?" His eyebrows curled up, "Am I a Dragon?" He questioned. He could hear his heart beating fast.
[Not yet]
[You’ve evolved into a Dragonman, you are the connection between theDragon Race and the Human Race]
"So I’m a Dragonman huh?" He breathed deeply "Shouldn’t the Dragon Race be extinct?" He asked.
"If I could recall, the stories told about the legendary immorial era which occurred ten thousand years ago...."
"Dragons were the only race born without the representation of humanity, in a world where only humans reign"
"The dragon race was rapidly being hunted down, that was the beginning of the raid expeditions"
"But even still, other eras ca and yet their conquerors never took a step to wipe out the dragon race"
"Only the Great Principality Supre Conqueror, the ruler of the legendary immorial era"
"He was the one who exterminated the dragon race, wasn’t he?" Caden asked.
[That appears to be correct]
[But of course,this is only a version of history]
Caden’s eyes widened in shock "Only a version of history? Then can I know the true history?" He asked.

"I’m really confused right now
[Do not be]
[When you reach Level 6, the truth will be told to you. Right now,you’re still too weak to bear the truth of the world]
Caden kissed his teeth in annoyance, "Yeah, right", still focusing his attention on the transparent cyan panel.
It brought out a single question.
[Would you like to access your private data?]

Caden stretched forth his right hand, and he quickly clicked the Yes button. He had only seen the physical result of his leveling and evolution.
