Synopsis

Alt title: How to Dragon 101 Her body's a riddle, each hunt and every morsel devoured reveals another piece. Magic, the currency of power in every corner of the world—pity poor Jade was born without a shred of it. No mana veins, no core to speak of, and as if that weren’t dire enough, she had the audacity to be half beast-kin. Scorn, ridicule, and outright bullying became her daily companions. That is, until one glorious day when she found herself kidnapped by a cult and tossed headfirst into some dodgy ritual. Naturally, things went pear-shaped. But with chaos comes change—not just skin-deep, of course. Now a dragonling, her body has become a lethal, upgradeable weapon, and her mind? That’s a different battlefield entirely. And someone really ought to explain why the thrill of the hunt sends her pulse racing... and why, for the love of all things sacred, do those blasted monsters taste so irresistibly good? What to expect: - A monster evolution system, with Skills, Magic and Mutations - This is a weak to strong story and Protagonist needs to sharpen her skills instead of just making numbers go up. - Combat, power-ups, unique skills and mutation merges for powerful abilities Current update schedule: 2/3 times a week (temp.)
