Chapter 65 65:Serum[II
The insufferable pain made his mind go blank and his vision became fuzzy. His legs turned soft, unable to support him. Losing his balance, Leon fell to the floor with a thud.
With eyes widened and sweat glistening all over his body, Leon felt his body weakening and becoming frail all of a sudden.
The pain slowly started to subside but just as he thought everything was over.
CRUNCH!CRUNCH!CRUNCH!CRUNCH!
A cacophony of breaking bones crackled accompanying painful grunts escaping from Leon's lips.
Leon felt a piercing pain all through his body, his eyes snapped open in shock as his torso folded down and his body cuddled as if he was snapped and folded by a giant foot pressing down on him.
The back of his head touched near his groins, and his mouth was opened in a silent scream, for his lungs were squished inside his chest. All his internals seemed to be squeezed and his bones were crushed and mashed.
His body was undergoing huge shocking changes which didn't seem to be stopping any moment soon.
Leon opened his lips wide feeling something emerging from him.
"What kind of fucking shit is happening now.."
"DAMNNNNNNN IT!"
Leon's hoarse voice echoed. It wasn't the agonizing pain that was torturing him, but rather the feeling of turning into something like a mindless monster, similar to the corpse he had seen before.
As Leon rolled on the ground with his sweat, he felt something crawling under the skin of his back wanting to break free from his physical body.
From Leon's back, a row of bones pierced out, extending from the back of his ribs and joined along the vertebrae.
A part of his spine popped out, his neck twisted like a snake, and with a sickening crack, his bones were ripped away from his body in a gory spray of blood jet spraying in the air, in which a whole new set of bones were regrown.
"HISSSSSSSS!"
Leon lay on the floor, and a low moan emerged from his lips with soft grunts, that was the only indication that he was fully awake, and experiencing all the pain.
The bones that were stained with his blood, began to reassemble in the air, they slowly formed the shape of protruding limbs of wings covered in a thick slimy substance that was slowly covered by a thin membrane.
Soon, a few moments later, the pain and horror finally started to subside for real.
If one had seen this, he would have watched the ghastly scene unfold as bony wings gruesomely burst forth from Leon's back. Blood oozed from the newly formed appendages, staining the air with a metallic scent. The agonized expression on Leon's face mirrored the horror of this nightmarish transformation, as the grotesque wings unfolded in a macabre display.
"Haaaa!Haaaa"
Loud gasps echoed in the room as Leon sucked in air greedily with his chest rising up and down. His back was drenched in a mixture of blood and sweat.
Resting his hand on the floor, just as he tried to get up...
PFFFT!
Blood spurted out like a jet from his lips and his stomach churned like a grinder. He opened his lips from which a trail of substance passed through.
BLUERGHHHH!
Along with blood, Leon could see pieces of rubbery flesh, shreds of broken bone fragments, and internals coming out from his buccal cavity.
"It's disgusting," Leon muttered, emptying the bloody content, and clicked his tongue due pungent metallic aftertaste lingering in his mouth.
He turned his head and saw two bony structures of wings of the length of a foot or two behind his back with scales covering it.
"What's this...wings?"
Asking himself, Leon subconsciously flapped his wing.
SWOOSH!
A surge of wind blew as the wing flapped in forward motion, his body was thrown backward like a kite cut from the string, unable to control his motion, and then skated on the ground.
"Not again!"Leon hissed in pain as the skin of his back got peeled due to sliding on the ground.
Leaving a bloody trail Leon just laid over the folded wings.
"I can't believe I am alive after losing so much blood."
"Just who am I? Am I still a human or some kind of fucking chimera?"
Leon started pondering about the effect of the serum as he felt vitality slowly returning to his body. His frail body soon started to gain muscle but it wasn't bulky.
"The serum enhances your genetics and also awakens your hidden power if there is any so what the fuck did it awaken."
"Monsterity….Abomination?"
Grumbling to himself, Leon waited for his eyesight to become normal and opened his stats.

"Fuck your system! If I am a masochist then you are a damned sadist enjoying the gruesome sight of my transformation."
After cursing to his heart's content, Leon went over his stats.
Leon nodded in satisfaction seeing his stat. His vein tier had been enhanced which had a qualitative effect on qi recovery thereby countering his weakness in some manner.
Previously, he always felt suffocated, a feeling akin to your nasal passage being blocked due to a cold which after the serum had opened allowed him to intake qi more efficiently.
As for transformation, it seems the serum had enhanced his draconic characteristic giving these sickly wings.
On getting up, with a slight nudge his wings went back inside his back mystical as if they never existed. As Leon traced his back, he found his shoulder blade and girdle a bit developed and bigger but it wasn't looking odd due to his height. The wings had been folded over his back mixing with the skin, while the bones had gone back assimilating with the rib cage and scapula of shoulder girdles.
He folded and unfolded the wings a few times to see if it was painful. Fortunately, it wasn't.
Leon could control it easily as if it were an additional limb of his body.
He tried to fly by flapping the wings but found that the wings weren't able to carry him properly. It seems he needed to increase his draconic percentage more to develop the wings fully. However, even in its infancy stage, Leon can use it to make a quick shift in direction mid-air.
Clenching his fist, Leon felt the increase in his grip strength and spoke aloud with his lips curving upwards into a crescent shape.
"It's time to hunt."
...…..
I don't know if you feel the chapter is too dragging or wasteful. I might have gone overboard with details of Leon's pain in the transformation though I don't know if you feel this worthwhile or if it feels hollow…
So please state your opinions about the chapter.
