Vixen paused, the notification gring at her while trepidation started to creep in. She knew this ordeal would be another chalked tally mark on her wall of trauma to surpass, but she had progressed past the point of return. She had also noticed that since the completion of her quest that she had felt incredibly off, and she could not pinpoint it to a particur feeling either.

  She retreated into the beachside cave as the feeling of impending doom started to build every second. She tried to calm her racing heart, ying down on an angled bed of stone as she breathed deep and slow, calming her nerves. That's when it hit her like a tidal wave. An overwhelming sensation of pain that blended together with an uncountable number of other sensations both familiar and foreign to her.

  Her stomach infted outward like a balloon on a helium tank, she felt her organs shift and compress to accommodate for the objects her body was prepping to expel. She grabbed her hair and arched her back as the pressure in her body spiked as blue egg speckled with bck dots was forced out. The egg was the size of a rge football, and once expelled sent a small wave of brief respite before another wave made it begin anew. This cycle would repeat itself over the next several hours as a bck, silver, purple, red, white with rainbow sparkles in it, and orange with green streaks in it expelled themselves from her body.

  Once all seven eggs were out, she lost consciousness. She had been stockpiling the energy she had received throughout, but it still was not enough compared to the exertion put in for this. The eggs shimmered and disappeared while another figure visited her in her unconscious state.

  "Good job on completing your objective. I have come to reward you," the familiar figure said. "Due to the number of new celestials born, you'll be awarded thirty-five hundred points, which is enough to create a small world of your own using the domain ability you have. The eggs can stay and grow there."

  [Axwz wishes to evolve and promote you, do you accept?][yes / no]

  Vixen was a little hesitant, Axwz did not know about her current race, but an evolution and promotion could not be too terrible so she accepted the reward. Her body glowed with pure celestial energy, the energy gathered on two pces near her shoulder-bdes turning her skin hot. Two rge feathered wings bright white as snow emerged from her back.

  [Evolved Race: Titanic Vampire Subrace: Angelic Champion][Holy Magic unlocked: 7 Star Arrow ][Human Transformation - Wings retract into the body]

  [Points sufficient domain has been created, eggs have been pced inside domain for cultivation]

  "Your reward has been granted, we look forward to your 10,000 points. Farewell," Axwz shimmered away returning Vixen's vision to the dark cave floor. Her body returned to normal physically, but she had never felt this tired or drained in her recent memory.

  She sprouted her wings and flew off back innd, flying this way was significantly less draining than transforming into her bat form. She made it innd shortly after, and after quickly retracting her wings, she started walking to the nearest town for some rest. Sedi and Jimbo did not know she left the Dragon Isle, but once they were far away would feel her energy like a tether.

  Vixen's skin was now radiating with a glow, not the divine type glow from a god, but a glow of beauty and confidence one would have after a spa day, and the men noticed this subtle change once she entered the first seaside vilge east of where she nded. One such man pushed himself off a young woman when she entered, the fearful girl ran off once the man's attention was on Vixen.

  The man sauntered over and firmly grabbed her ass while giving it a little shake, "You look like you had a run in with a wild animal dressed like this beautiful, come with ol' Charlie here and I'll take care of ya."

  Vixen did not have the energy nor the patience to deal with this creep in a diplomatic or heroic manner she usually would have. She swatted his hand away, but allowed him to follow her. Charlie looked like he had just won the lottery and nearly skipped along in her wake, following her to a one bedroom seaside hut.

  The moment the door had been closed, she fshed her fangs," V-vampire!" Yelled Charlie, but it was too te. Vixen pounced on him and sunk her teeth into his neck to regain her energy, but something was wrong and she didn't know what. When Charlie dropped dead to the floor, a bck mark appeared on her ass cheek, the only pce Charlie could think to grab before dying. Vixen had paid no mind to it, a st dying wish of a pervert, but she didn't realize her error until a notification popped up as if to chide her on her folly.

  [You have been cursed][Curse of Lethargy: No matter how much energy you gain, you will feel tired. Sleeping is now required]

  'Who has heard of a sleeping vampire? I should be fine," Vixen thought as she left the cabin and began her journey eastward to the nd of the giants. She would have to go east for a long while before being able to head south to the nd of giants, walking would take more than a month. However, she found some secluded pce in the woods, sprouted her wings and took to the skies. The nd below zipped past her as she made her way.

  When it got closer to nightfall, she nded, her wings retracting. She had made it to the southern junction in a single day, but there was no town here. She walked out from the woods to the crossroads junction where there was almost a vilge of tents from people traveling the countryside.

  Her back muscles were sore, she didn't realize how taxing long distance flight was regardless of whether or not she had her wings out. She made her way to the side of the roads where all the erected tents were, she would have to set up her own tent in the dark. It didn't bother her, but she was exhausted, the curse she had fully rearing its ugly head.

  Before she could get started on her own tent, a group of three male travelers approached her.

  "Good evening miss, I'm Sam and these are my friend Robert and Uriel. We thought you looked exhausted and wanted to invite you to eat with us, then we could help you set up your tent."

  Vixen swayed on her feet slightly, "That's very nice of you, very well I'll gdly take you up on your offer."

  She followed the three young men to their tent and sat by the fire, her back leaning up against a log. Sam went inside the tent and pulled out one of his shirts, "Here miss, you're clothes are pretty banged up, this may be better for you."

  Vixen had forgotten about the state of her clothes and nodded, she thanked Sam and retreated into their tent to change. She disrobed the poor excuse for clothes she was wearing and donned the shirt that was way too big, one that fit Sam's rge frame. It looked like a nightgown on her and her nipples poked through the shirt leaving little to the imagination, the bottom of the shirt just came down past her crotch.

  She sat with the three men as they described who they were, what they did, and why they were traveling, Vixen was so exhausted she could hardly pay attention to any of it, but the stew they were cooking smelled nice.

  Uriel was telling a story about fighting some creature on their way over when Vixen had to interrupt, "I apologize, but I feel as if I am about to fall over, would you mind if I slept in your tent for the night?"

  The three looked at each other and Robert responded, "Not a problem miss, you ok?"

  "Yes I'm fine, just tired is all, I appreciate your hospitality."

  Vixen stood up, the tattoo from the curse on her butt cheek made visible before leaving the three men huddled around the fire.
