My Reincarnation as a Chicken-Chapter 18 First Evolution

'Wah… huh?'

The screens flooded my eyes, giving me headaches with the several dings that came up. I slowly sat up, rubbing my head with my wings.

'Hmm, that's so soft and nice. It's like a nice fluffy pillow. Wait a minute… since when did I have such nice feathers?'

My feathers were always rough, messy and uncomfortable, so how the hell were they suddenly enjoyable? That was when I saw my body.

I had gotten a bit taller, as well as fatter. My feathers had gotten darker and seemed sharper and smoother. The tips were black though, same for my belly and feet. I had some form of antennae on my head, almost like a replacement for my original cowlick.

'I-… did I evolve? Woohoo! Evolution! Muahaha! Come! Face me!'

While looking at my new stats, I noticed there was a cool breeze that made me kind of happy. It came from above and when I checked, I saw weird leaves with their veins glowing faintly.

[Name: Blue Winowa

[Description: A type of tree that usually grows in the summer period. Its leaves are capable of producing a cool breeze that can cool down anything. They are usually used for making cold foods, or keeping items fresh.

'Ah… That's nice. Finally, something that isn't life threatening.'

"Grrr, waba rak!" I heard some weird growling sounds to my side.

"Waaaa!" Surprisingly, there was a little plant monster flying at me with a vicious grin on its face.

'Eh? What the heck is this? Let's go, [Tori Kick]…'

I simply kicked the monster on instinct, ripping right through it and sending its body flying.

[You have killed a Mushroo spawn]

[One of your Mushroo spawns has died]

'Eh? One of my what? Oh, that's right, I used that new skill I got yesterday before I decided to evolve.'

I then remembered that the night before, I killed a certain creature called a Larm Mushroo. That thing was so scary my stomach hurt remembering it and how I almost died. Yeah, anyway I managed to kill it and acquire enough experience points to evolve, I guess. But before, I planted these guys to protect me, just in case I didn't make it to the cave.

'So why the hell did that one attack me?'

<<Notice: That last order given to the mushroo before evolution was your temporary protection. Post evolution, the mushroos have no orders>>

Agent explained the situation to me in simple terms. Still didn't make sense for it to understand me though, but I wouldn't asked. This thing had already proven too stupid to understand some of my questions. Stupid, sometimes useless cheat.

I looked forward and there were three mushroos looking at me with fear in their eyes. I didn't know that plant monsters could feel fear. I guess even plants have emotions. Two of the mushroos hid behind one, who was probably the bravest of them all. He was also biggest when I looked at him well.

'I guess, I'm your parent since I created you. However, I won't treat you like a parent would. Take me to be your boss, you little twigs! I guess I shall name you Ichi.'

I told the one the others were hiding behind, because well, he seemed to be the oldest.

[Would you like to name this creature?]

[This would require mana to be transferred]

[Would you still like to name this creature?]

'Eh? Mana? B-But… I'll die if I use mana. So no! I won't be naming them. I'll just do so in my head. I'll call the first one Ichi, second, Ni and the third, San.'

DING!

[You have successfully named the spawns, Ichi, Ni and San]

[They are now members of your Familia]

DING!

[ERROR! @#%! [Familia] function still locked!]

'Oi, oi… what the hell just happened. I just named them? I thought I couldn't do so without mana. Also, what is this Familia function thing? Agent?'

I got no response from the agent yet again. I just decided to shrug it off. I'd probably just find out a while later.

I looked at the creatures once again. They looked kind of weak. I doubted they could be worth anything. I probably didn't get killed the previous night because no monster found me. In that case, I would need to make them strong enough to protect me whenever I slept. I wanted to test out their abilities, but we were in the open, so I would need to go back to my nest.

With [Auto Mapping], going back wasn't too much of a problem. Also, I scanned them and this is what I got.

'Tch, damned brats have better stats than I did when I first started out.'

Finally, it was time to test out their fighting potential.

Hahaha! Now ladies and gentlemen! I present to you, the ultimate, Twig Tournament! Who shall be my twig!

I had come up with the idea of a tournament where the twig brothers fight amongst themselves to determine who the best was considering they all had the same stats.

Ichi was the first to attack, extending his twig like arms to whip his brothers. Ni managed to dodge it, but San took the blow then bit his older brother's hand. Ni got angry at the sight then whipped his little brother. Ichi dragged San in close, then scratched the little one's face with his claw like hands.

"Awaa! Grrr!"

San didn't like that very much it would seem. He stopped biting his brother then extended one of his root like legs to grab Ni, who dodged easily. However, Ni jumped right into Ichi, causing Ichi to be disoriented. Without wasting time, San jumped in with his hands forming a giant net like structure, probably to capture them.

'Did San plan that? Nice. But… isn't Ichi's adaptability too insane?'

I thought this because Ichi just acquired a new ability on the go. It was called [Polymorph]. It changed its hands to form large blades that cut through the net like structure. The blade was about to cut right through San, but Ni grabbed San with a whip and flung him into a wall of the nest and essentially making me end the tournament, although it was sort of underwhelming.

All of them had already reach 1 hp. So I would need to find a way to raise them back up to full health.

'Oh, that's right. How do I get back to hundred percent, when I lose some health? Do I just eat? Or sleep?'

<<Notice: Consumption of Renosue herbs help recover vitality>>

'What? What is this? Could it be that my cheat skill that knows everything in this world is actually quite useful? Oh my… Where could I find such goodies?'

<<Notice: Renosue herbs are mostly found in the West of Larm forest>>

'Hehehe, and I'm currently located in the West of Larm forest? Muahaha! I shall find these herbs and amass them! But now… I need to fix my home.'

I looked up at my broken roof and saw a few cracks in my walls. I really needed to do some home repairs. I unconsciously let out a groan and lie on my back, thinking about how I will alter this.

'Maybe I could live without a roof. You know, bask in glorious sunlight during the day time and absorb that sweet fantasy moonlight at night. It'll be dope.'

BOOM!

Just then, thunder boomed and thunder clouds gathered in the sky.

'Seriously? Tch.'

I got off the ground and decided to scroll through my skill set to see if I had anything useful. Luckily I had acquired [Black Thread Creation] from the Black Weaver yesterday and it seemed quite useful. My use of it the first time was quite horrible. The black sticky substance just fell on the floor every time I tried shooting it out of my feather tip.

The clouds were gathering and I didn't have time to come up with something better, so I just picked up the falling pieces and attached them to the ends of the top of my home, trying to form some sort of net with them.

Soon enough, I managed to cover the top completely. It started raining and I could feel a little bit safe, that is until my ceiling started leaking. It would seem that my threads still weren't strong enough, so I needed to be more creative if I didn't want to get my feathers wet.

After a bit of looking around and thinking, I decided to leave the comforts of my dry cave to go search for tree branches, which I cut down with my claws and dragged back into the nest. It was hard to do without hands, but I managed to fix the tree branches to the ceiling like a roof and tie them together using [Black Thread Creation]. Coincidentally, the tree branches I took were from a Winowa tree and still had some of the leaves present, dropping the room's temperature and helping me dry off.

Still, given the fact that it was already cold out, more cold air was not necessary. Ah to hell with it. 𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺

After time, my body was naturally adapting to it. This was due to the effects of [Evolver] giving me the skill [Cold Resistance] while I relaxed. After the rain died out, the mushroos came bothering me and I remembered that they had almost died because of me. So I made them man the fort while I went out in search of Renosue herbs for them.

On my way out, I tested out the [Flight] skill and it allowed me to fly for the price of 10 stamina per minute or so. That was a good deal, I guess. It simply meant I wouldn't be flying much. Still, I decided to go up into the sky to simply enjoy the view.

It was fantastic. There was an endless mass of trees wherever I looked, but the sunset was beautiful. Behind me I could see a massive mountain range with dark clouds and storms brewing. According to the agent that was the Northern part of Larm. It possessed the truly dangerous monsters of Larm, so I would never have to go there!

While I was enjoying my time in the sky, I was suddenly attacked by a creature called a [Bronzeed]. It was like an owl with shiny golden feathers and beaks and claws made of bronze. It was quite the slim creature with a sort of automatic feel to it, but also very violent. It attacked me viciously, but I managed to beat it. It didn't give me enough points to level up though.

At least I acquired a meal after evolution.
