After we finish dealing with the hobgoblins we head back to our base. Ghost looks the same as always, only bigger, a lot bigger about 2.5 times as big. When I checked his stats this is what it looked like this

Ghost sniffs the air and gestures with her tail to follow her. After following her for 5 minutes we come across a group of 5 orcs. All of them are lv 15. I use telepathy to communicate to Johanna and ghost.

'Alright let’s do this the same way we dealt with the hobgoblins' jack
'Perfect' Johanna
'Yes master' ghost
'You can talk?' jack
'No sadly I don’t have the proper structure to speak. But I can communicate to you through telepathy'
As I stare in curiosity
"What took you two so long I’ve already killed them all?"
Johanna who could not hear ghost's telepathy went ahead and completely overwhelmed the orcs.

"Oh, I see.” Johanna
"What’s that about" jack

Empress' Evolution
The bright red light of the flames swallowed her vision but soon that red light transformed into a blue hue and she was dragged into that light. ‘What’s happening?’ It was too bright and she was forced to close her eyes, she was blinded — even though she was already dead. After being pulled into the light she began to feel annoyed as her skin was irritated by some kind of rough sand. By the time she opened her eyes. She could see the full view of the sky. It was blue and there were clouds scattered about. ‘Ugh, is this Hell?’ She stated as she rubbed her head with her fluffy and furry ‘hand’. ‘Furry?’ She looked at her ‘hands’ and her mouth opened wide. Her hands had become soft and fluffy paws of a white-furred beast with purple spots. ‘What the hell?’ She touched her face with her paws and confirmed that it too did not belong to a human. Below, she felt something was moving, she can tell as if it was another limb connected to her. ‘Don’t tell me!’ Turning her head around, she found a seven-inch tail sticking out behind. ‘Phew!’ She felt relieved that it wasn’t what she thought it was. “These soft and paws, this cuddly fluffy hair, this cute tail — ah shit, did I become a beast after my death or have I been dreaming of being human as a beast all this time? If it is the latter that is one long and realistic dream.” === [It’s the former, stupid *] === Said a woman’s voice from in her head. === As always thank you for reading, also the image in the cover is not mine, I found it on Pinterest and thought it was cool and suitable. All credits got to the illustrator. Also, this is a new type of story that I have not read about yet. Basically I am writing an evolution novel without prior knowledge so I don't really know what is considered cliche in this genre.
