"Affirmative, host." Nancy replied.

"DING!"

​​

1. Wind Harpy – a new creature that specializes in speed and flight. (no further information could be inferred until the user actually takes on this evolution path)

2. Savage Harpy – a new creature that specializes in physical prowess and defense. (no further information could be inferred until the user actually takes on this evolution path)

3. Bandit Harpy – a new creature that specializes in stealth and deception. (no further information could be inferred until the user actually takes on this evolution path)

"Thank you, Nancy." Our bored gamer said to his handy system while he paused to think about the choices that were before him.

If he were younger then there would be no doubt that Clark would have chosen the 3rd option.

It would maximize his chances of staying hidden in this world while he conquered every nook and cranny that was available for him to grab.

Fortunately, our good gamer knew that there were existences of gods in this realm. And it was absolutely very tricky to hide from those aged monsters.

Most especially because of the unique perk of divine sense at their beck and call.

"Can you list me some evolution path that could hide from a god's divine sense, Nancy?" Clark asked in the end.

"Affirmative, host." The system replied.

"DING!"

1. Witch Harpy – 50% synchronization

2. Clone Harpy – 3% synchronization

3. Illusionist Harpy – 2% synchronization

4. Chameleon Harpy – 1% synchronization

.

..

...

The list was long after that but what was not surprising was how the rest had only 1% synchronization and no further.

Our bored gamer looked at the long list and pondered on what was the best course of action from here on out.

"A witch harpy could maybe use spells and incantations that could hide themselves from the divine sense of a god."

"The clone harpy may utilize other bodies than its own."

"And perhaps an illusionist harpy is a creature that uses charms and illusion magic." Clark mused about the applications about the 3 top evolution path on the list.

There was no meaning in looking further down below since it would only make his growth harder to progress.

He took only 5 minutes of time in order to deliberate completely what he wanted to get in the next moment.

"I want to get the Clone Harpy evolution path, Nancy." Clark concluded.

"Affirmative, host." The system responded promptly.

"DING!" A gentle chime sounded and this marked the beginning of another extreme pain in the making.

Every cell inside the body of our avid gamer was slowly but surely changing into something else. Into a variant that has never been seen before.

Unfortunately, this alien modification was sure to bring about great agony and torture.

"This... is... nothing!"

"Give me some more pain!" Our bored gamer's hidden masochistic side resurfaced during the transformation process.

One should know that Clark has experienced untold eons of torment before. Pain has already registered differently in his psyche.

It was no longer pain but the feeling of absolute pleasure. A dark feeling that has been a very close friend of our good gamer over the years.

This was one of his coping mechanisms so that he could maintain his sanity despite the suffering that he accrued.

Ten minutes passed and it seemed like our bored gamer had already gotten his body chopped into pieces for several million times.

A weak mind would have gone into madness in the first few seconds alone but not our very own protagonist.

"DING!"

"Congratulations, host. You have successfully leveled up into a level 4 monster." Nancy notified and immediately brought up the character status of our bored gamer.

Host: Clark Colter

Unique Race: Clone Harpy

Cultivation: Level 4 Monster

"Since you have created a new evolution path, you can freely change your race name, host."

"Do you want to change that now?" The system continued by asking.

"No. I shall leave it as it is, Nancy." Clark took a full minute to answer. He adjusted his bearing and locked the intense desire for pain behind the deepest recesses of his mind once more.

As for the race name, it mattered little since our avid gamer was not about to spread his monster seeds unto this world. So Clone Harpy suited him well at this time.

"Now let me discover the abilities of this unique race." Clark murmured and began to change into his monster form.

Same as the last, he got claws, talons, and wings but more than that, his size has expanded to an almost impossible degree.

From a mere 6 foot monster, the harpy frame increased into a 10 foot long abomination.

With how tight the space was in here, it was absurd to continue this monster change. Clark stopped before he could make irreversible damage to this small room.

"I need to get myself into an even bigger room." Our bored gamer sighed as he lamented how little this hell hole was for his size.

Clark crawled to the side and brought his fat body in a hunched position. He was naked all over since his school uniform was already in pieces at this time.

It did not need telling that our good gamer has slept naked through the night.

"This should be enough." Clark got a big white towel and covered his nudity in the next moment.

"BANG!" The door opened and he squeezed his large form right through the passage.

"Hey there, fatty. Don't block the halls with your big lousy ass." A man ridiculed with his girlfriend in tow.

With how tight their accommodations were on this floor, our bored gamer could only wonder how these two could sleep together. Nevertheless, Clark merely ignored the man's taunts.

A supreme existence like him would not stoop to such lows and entertain the trashy mouth of an insignificant ant.

"CLICK!" Clark locked his humble apartment and went to the common restroom on the floor.

Therein he made his perfect change into a level 4 monster and got his first innate ability in the next moment.

"DING!"
