I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Chapter 47 Daily Quest, Birdman

Erend set foot on a meadow. This meadow is very wide and has grass that looks soft and sways in the wind.

Erend looked around but he didn't see anything. He furrowed his brows in confusion.

"Hwaahhh..." Erend yawned widely because he felt very tired. The sleep deprivation made him feel this way.

He had been woken up while it was still dark and immediately witnessed the massacre of humans trying to enter the garden.

After that, he talked to Anna. Or in fact, he was interrogating the woman.

Fortunately, the interrogation was not long at all. Instead, Anna cooperated quickly.

He actually didn't expect that Anna would immediately agree to help them so quickly.

Erend also remembered when he saw Steve jump towards the Portal that opened right behind him without a second thought.

Erend shook his head. Those people are not decent humans at all. Or maybe they were trained to act that way if they were in a dangerous situation?

Erend sighed and didn't think about it any further.

He spread his eyes again but still didn't see anything that looked like a Daily Quest.

"Tut," Erend called.

[ "Soon." ] Tut seemed to know what Erend was going to say. After all, he basically resided inside Erend's head.

[ "Walk forward a little more. You will see a road." ]

Erend immediately started to walk.

"What will be on the road?" Erend asked

[ "A caravan." ]

"Caravans?" Erend frowned in confusion. But he kept walking until he finally saw the dirt road.

A caravan was indeed speeding from a distance. The caravan consisted of three wagons pulled by two emaciated and unhealthy-looking horses.

Erend thought that the only creatures that rode the wagons like that were humans.

Elves will ride much more luxurious and nicer wagons. Meanwhile, Erend doesn't know that other creatures in this fantasy world will ride a wagon to travel.

That meant he had to deal with humans again.

"What should I do?" Erend asked while looking at the approaching caravan.

[ "You will see." ]

Hearing this, Erend waited quietly. The caravan was already in front of him about ten meters away.

The driver of the wagon at the very front was a skinny young man in shabby clothes. He turned to Erend and looked at him in confusion.

Erend stared back at him but his expression was flat. The young man turned his face away from Erend and thought he was just a weird man in the middle of a meadow.

The caravan kept going.

Then, Erend saw from above something flying appeared from behind the clouds.

The creature flew lower and lower. A moment later four other flying creatures appeared from behind the clouds.

Erend frowned. "What's that?"

The five flying creatures drew closer. Erend could see that they had the head and wings of a bird, but they had the body, arms, and legs of a human. In addition, they also carry their own weapons.

"Gosh, what the hell is that thing?!" Erend looked surprised and worried. He had never seen anything like that in his life.

[ Daily Quest Updated! ]

While he was still enveloped in shock, suddenly a notification about the Daily Quest appeared.

[ Daily Quest: Kill all Aarakocra that threaten the human caravan. ]

[ Rewards: 100 Exp. ]

[ Aarakocra killed: 0/5 ]

"Aarakocra?" Erend repeated the creature's name. So, the name of the half-bird half-human creature is Aarakocra?

Erend saw that the five Aarakocras had drawn their spears and swords. The humans in the caravan didn't notice anything because the Aarakocras could fly silently.

[ Skill activated: Dragon scale (Lv.1) ]

Erend's body started to be covered in red and black scales.

[ Skill activated: Dragon Wings (Lv.1) ]

After that on Erend's back grew a pair of red and black wings. They almost looked like bat wings but were stronger and bigger.

Erend recalled that it was the first time he used this skill.

Erend flapped his wings then he flew towards the Aarakocra.

The five Aarakocras were surprised to find Erend who suddenly appeared and flew towards them.

"What's that?!" One of the Aarakocra shouted in surprise in their own language.

Erend's terrifying and strange appearance made them all even more shocked.

Erend has now transformed into a human form but with red and black skin that looks very strong. In addition, he also has a pair of large wings.

"Just attack him!" One of the Aarakocra who had dull blue fur shouted an order.

The Aarakocras changed their flight direction to Erend and for a moment forgot about the humans in the caravan.

They drew their spears and swords. Erend drove towards them fearlessly. Moments later they were colliding.

The Aarakocra's weapon hit Erend's [Dragon Scale].

'TANG!'

'TANG!'

'TANG!'

The weapons bounced as soon as they hit Erend's extremely hard scale. Erend then maneuvered to fly above them and then immediately swooped down.

Erend gripped one of the Aarakocra which had green fur. The Aarakocra shouted then thrust his spear at Erend.

Just like earlier, the spear was unable to penetrate Erend's scale. The spear's blade was even partially broken.

The Aarakocra was shocked. His bird's eyes widened. Erend who saw that felt weird because it was the first time he saw a bird that had a surprised expression like a human.

Not letting the feeling of shock last too long, the other Aarakocra immediately spun around and attacked Erend.

Erend fought back with a power that could match them with just [Dragon Scale], and [Dragon Wings]. As expected, he didn't need to use [Dragon Transformation].

Suddenly one of the Aarakocra who has golden feathers stretched out one hand towards him. Then a huge wind wave hit Erend and threw him.

Erend was very surprised. He didn't think that the birdmen could cast Magic attacks. Erend thought they could only fly and use ordinary weapons.

Another wave of wind came towards Erend. This time there was more than one wind wave.

'BWAASSHH!!!'

Erend was hit by several waves of wind until he was unable to fly anymore and fell down.
