Chapter 92: Evolving: part 1(chapter 91)
prevously in chapter 90
The moment Salva teleported, he appeared in a familiar dark world where the sun seldom shone, if ever. Hitting the familiar ground with a thud, Salva got himself up and looked around. "Great, I'm back in Amenth. I thought I was going to be teleported somewhere else," he thought to himself. Suddenly, he heard the sound of something heading towards him. "Come on, you're not even giving me a chance," he groaned as he turned around, only to see an abomination of a creature with a tentacled mouth, several eyes, a small pair of wings, and the body of a slug. "Never mind," he muttered, smiling to himself. Salva, of course, lunged towards the creature, laughing madly while also spewing fire.
The moment the two creatures clashed, it was Salva who was pushed back, but that didn't discourage him. No, it only made him push even more as he bit, clawed, and chewed his way into the large bulbous creature. Not long after, the creature's large, bulbous body fell. "Well, that was something," he mused as he started to chew. He ate and ate and ate until he was full, but the food immediately disappeared, and the feeling of fullness he had disappeared too. While he got closer and closer to evolving again, he thought to himself, "This isn't enough." He roared to announce his presence, and sure enough, someone—or something—heard him, as the flapping of wings could be heard.

Chapter 91
Salva stood amidst the charred remains of the slug-like abomination, he was back in his human form and even then, his senses tingling as the flapping of wings grew louder. The air thickened with the scent of sulfur and burning ozone, and the sky darkened further as a colossal shadow loomed overhead. The massive dragon, with scales as dark as obsidian and eyes burning like molten lava, descended with a deafening roar that shook the very ground.
The dragon's immense wings created gusts of wind that flattened nearby trees and sent debris flying. As it landed, its claws gouged deep furrows into the earth, and its tail swung with a force that toppled boulders. The ground beneath Salva's feet trembled, but he stood firm, his eyes narrowing as he assessed his formidable opponent, "a dragon, this should give a nice essence, maybe enough for me to evolve" he mused to himself.
Without warning, the dragon unleashed a torrent of dark flames, black and sinister, that scorched everything in their path. Salva dove to the side, rolling to avoid the searing heat. The flames left a molten trail on the ground, turning rocks into lava and trees into cinders.
Salva wasted no time in counterattacking. He transformed into his hybrid form, scales covering his body, eyes turning golden and slanted. With a powerful leap, he launched himself at the dragon, claws extended. The dragon met him with a swipe of its massive claw, but Salva twisted mid-air, dodging the blow and landing on the beast's foreleg. He dug his claws into the tough scales, but they barely penetrated.
The dragon roared in anger, shaking its leg violently to dislodge Salva. With a tremendous heave, it succeeded, flinging him across the clearing. Salva crashed through several trees, splintering them into kindling before landing heavily on the ground. He quickly regained his footing, shaking off the impact.
The dragon took to the air, its wings generating powerful gusts that uprooted trees and sent rocks tumbling. It circled overhead, its eyes locked onto Salva. From above, it rained down a continuous stream of dark flames, creating a hellish inferno below. Salva zigzagged through the flames, using his agility to avoid being incinerated.
As the dragon swooped low, Salva seized the opportunity. Timing his leap perfectly, he launched himself at the dragon's neck, grabbing hold of a ridge between its scales. The dragon thrashed wildly, trying to shake him off, but Salva held on, climbing towards its head.
The dragon, in a desperate attempt to rid itself of Salva, slammed its body against a cliffside. The impact sent shockwaves through the rock, causing an avalanche of debris. Salva was momentarily stunned, but his healing abilities kicked in, allowing him to maintain his grip. He clawed his way to the top of the dragon's head, where he faced the beast's furious gaze.
With a roar of defiance, Salva opened his mouth and unleashed a stream of fire directly into the dragon's eye. The dragon howled in pain, its head thrashing from side to side. Using its momentary distraction, Salva summoned all his strength and bit down hard on the vulnerable spot where the dragon's scales met its skull. His teeth, enhanced by his transformation, finally pierced through.
The dragon, in its agony, rose higher into the sky, spiraling out of control. The environment below became a blur of motion and destruction as the dragon's tail whipped through the air, smashing into the ground and creating deep craters. Trees were uprooted, and the ground itself seemed to ripple from the sheer force of the battle.
Salva held on with grim determination, his jaws locked onto the dragon's head. With a final, mighty effort, he tore a chunk of flesh and scale free. The dragon's flight faltered, its strength waning as it let out a final, ear-splitting roar. It plummeted from the sky, crashing into the earth with a cataclysmic impact that sent shockwaves through the land.
The ground shattered, fissures spreading out from the point of impact as dust and debris filled the air. Salva was thrown clear by the force of the crash, tumbling across the ground before coming to a stop. He rose slowly, his body battered but healing rapidly, and made his way back to the fallen dragon.
The once-mighty creature lay in a broken heap, its dark flames extinguished. Salva approached cautiously, ready for any last act of defiance, but the dragon's eyes had dimmed, and its breaths were shallow. He placed a hand on its head, a silent moment of respect for the formidable foe before he started to feed. The battlefield was a scene of utter devastation, he started to dig in and it didnt take much longer to devour the entire dragon, yes, entire dragon, "oh i am close" yes he was close to evolving again, suddenly, his heightened senses detected a new presence approaching.
The air around him grew tense, and the ground rumbled slightly with each approaching step. Emerging from the dense, smoke-filled forest, a three-headed purple lion appeared, each head glaring menacingly at Salva. The creature's massive paws left deep impressions in the ground, and its muscular body rippled with power, "well shit, another" he smiled as he got ready for a battle.
The lion's three heads were each distinct: the central head had piercing yellow eyes and emitted toxic gas from its mouth, the left head exhaled frigid air, and the right head could unleash torrents of water. The beast roared, its combined voices creating a chilling symphony of danger, and without hesitation, it charged at Salva.
Salva barely had time to react as the lion lunged, its central head releasing a cloud of toxic gas. He leaped backward, narrowly avoiding the poisonous fumes. The gas quickly spread, corroding the vegetation it touched and leaving a trail of withered plants and blackened soil. Salva's eyes watered from the acrid smell, and he knew he had to be cautious about breathing in the noxious substance, well, it was pointless, but he wanted.
