[ Respect -> The host can see the target\'s respect count ( How much the target respect\'s the host or how much others respect the target ) ]
Believe it or not, Shin had no time to see the entire message. If he did, he would have utterly been killed since all of a sudden all the bears attacked him from almost all directions.
He jumped as high as he could and thanks to his bigger body and stronger limbs, he jumped twice as high as the tree that was next to him. Of course, the tree wasn\'t the largest in the forest, it was not the shortest either.
It was at least 10 meters tall, the tree that is.
*gulp*
Shin was nervous now, he could see all the bears looking at him from the ground with a fierce gaze. Especially the Bear King, he was the one who made Shin shiver with the fiercest gaze!
\'Now what do I do?\', while Shin was wondering that, another notification popped up.
Of course, it was the continuation of the previous one but for Shin, it was like a new one.
[ Generation of new skills have been completed ]

-> Decrease in 80% of MP ]
And that concluded all the notifications.
Shin was still in mid-air when these notifications appeared. Of course, they appeared at the same time and not one by one. Regardless, Shin didn\'t care about them since he could hear the voice in his head!
The new skills did fascinate him, but now was not the time to be awed by them or think about them.
He wanted to escape the situation and not only that, he wanted to save Siara and complete the quest too.
\'Just what the heck should I do?\'
\'I am a half-dragon right now but I have no idea about what I should be doing!\'
p
Just a while ago he estimated the power of the jump differently too. Of course, he would eventually get used to it, but right now he was way too inexperienced to fight in such a body.
That was the sole reason why he was worried, but thanks to the system, his mind was set at ease!
[ Advice: Use the skill \'Hymn Of The Dragons\' ]
\'Huh? Didn\'t I get such a skill a moment ago?\'
\'The system already wants me to use that?\', Shin asked himself in his mind.
Needless to say, the system was right, but it was up to Shin to decide whether to would use it or not.
All the bears that were staring at Shin opened their mouths widely. Some tiny shiny light orbs started to gather in their mouths.
In the end, they formed a large orb that protruded out of their mouths. It was shining with yellow light. They were all aiming at Shin so it was evident that it was some sort of attack!
The Bear King felt that there was no need to attack since his subordinate would take care of it, but little did he know that their attacks would fail!
Fail? So easily? Yes, their attacks failed. It was not because Shin used some secret trick, it was because they fired it late!
They thought that if Shin was quite close enough to them, the attack wouldn\'t miss and it would have a maximum effect too. That was why they allowed Shin to fall until he reached the level of their heads!
Unfortunately enough, they missed. Since Shin had grown in size and had scales like armor, he was way heavier.
Due to that, he had more mass, and thanks to that the velocity with which he was falling was even greater than normal. They anticipated it wrong and by the time they fired the attack, Shin was already on the ground.
Of course, Shin did do a small thing to increase the velocity of his fall.
Initially, his head was towards the ground due to which he could easily see that they were ready to attack him. Later, his head was tended towards the top.
How so? Did he change his position?
Well, something similar. He forced his body to form a ball or rather a sphere-like shape thanks to which the air friction decreased and he fell much faster.
Even though it was by little, he still gained some time, and thanks to that he escaped the deadly attack.
It would be inappropriate to say that this was all planned, but he did come up with this idea at the moment! Guess what, science was not completely useless after all in this world.
\'Boom\'
\'Bam\'
\'Boom\'
All the heads of the Intermediate Bears were flying in the air. Even the Greater Bears were no exception, their heads were also cut off.
Blood emerged from the bodies as if it was a fountain. It started to rain, of course, it was blood instead of water, a blood rain perhaps from the cut heads which were high in the air!
It was a breathtaking sight.
To be continued...
