Zephyr stared at the black-haired boy across from him.
Power surged through his limbs like wildfire. The scales across his body pulsed as if alive.
This… wasn't normal.
It's been a month since he got that system window.

This was a transformation.
As soon as the evolution was completed, it altered him.
His bones became denser. His skin could stop blades.

His golden eyes turned crimson. Twin horns curved from his skull like a crown.
