Eren showed his status to the four of them without hesitation.
"Wow! Look at his status! He just awakened, and his attributes are already higher than ours!"
"Obviously. It's a rare-grade profession after all."
"Hey, why do you only have one skill? And it's an active skill at that?!"
Eren smiled at their reactions.
This was how his friends normally behaved.
He was happy to see them like this again.
"I don't know either. After awakening, I only got this one skill," he answered calmly.
"Hey, show us your transformation," Lyra asked.
The remaining three also looked at him with sparkling eyes.
But Eren shook his head.
"No. I don't have any spare clothes with me. What would I do if my clothes get torn?"
Still, his friends refused to give up.
"Then do a partial transformation!"
"Yeah, just show us something!"
Seeing their eager expressions, he took a deep breath.
"Okay. All of you, step back for a moment. Remember, you're the ones who wanted to see it, so don't get scared once you see my transformation, alright?"
Everyone nodded with serious expressions.
He concentrated on the newfound energy within his body to activate his skill after his friends distanced themselves.
As he did, his Spirit value dropped from 3.0 to 2.5 instantly.
"Oh shit!"
He had accidentally used too much spiritual energy since he had no experience controlling it.
He triggered a full transformation.
His body immediately shrank, and his entire field of vision collapsed.
He felt dizzy at first, then found himself covered in darkness.
'What is this?'
Shaking off the clothes that had completely covered him, he stumbled into the light.
He felt much stronger.
He looked around frantically, only to be shocked when he realized that everyone had become insanely taller.
'What the fuck!'
"Woof!"
A barking sound came out of his mouth instead of words.
As he looked up, his friends were staring down at him with their mouths agape.
No one spoke for a while.
Eren lowered his head and looked at his feet, only to find his entire body covered in silky white fur.
His vision felt much wider compared to his human sight.
His height didn't even reach Lyra's knees.
He slowly looked up.
'Hey… what do I look like?'
"Woof!"
He had wanted to ask his friends about the details of his transformation, but he quickly realized he couldn't speak at all.
It was as if his ability to talk had been completely taken away.
Silence hung in the air for a brief moment, then all of his friends burst into laughter.
"He told us not to be scared of his transformation… but now… he t-turned into this…"
"Pff... Hahahahaha! What the heck?!"
"Eren! You look so adorable, man!"
"Can I take a photo of him?!"
"Hey, puppy, come here! Put your paw in my hand…"
Eren snapped and felt so offended.
As he saw Kael bend down and extend his hand toward him, instinct took over.
He immediately bit his hand.
"Ouch! HEY! THAT HURTS!! I was just kidding, bro!" Kael shouted.
His voice drew the attention of other students nearby.
"WOW! Hey, look over there!"
"What the hell?!"
"That's so freaking cute!"
"Is that really his transformation? Can he even fight like that?!"
The commotion was far greater than they had expected.
Dozens of students surrounded him, taking photos from various angles.
Their reactions were wildly exaggerated.
Meanwhile, Eren's Spirit drained at an incredible rate as time passed.
Thankfully, with the help of his friends, he managed to escape into the bathroom.
Kael carried him in his hands and held him up in front of the mirror with a huge grin on his face.
"Look, bro, you don't even have a dick anymore!"
"Idiot! Shapeshifting transformations don't have reproductive organs…"
"Hey, Kael, you're going overboard, man. Once Eren turns back into a human, he's definitely going to kill you."
Ignoring their antics, Eren's eyes landed on his reflection, and he immediately understood the reason for all the commotion.
Staring back at him was an unbelievably cute puppy.
Its entire body was small and fluffy.
Its fur shimmered like silver stardust.
A tiny crescent-shaped mark rested on its forehead, glowing with a faint blue hue.
Overall, it looked more peaceful and adorable than the fearsome Divine Blood beasts everyone usually imagined.
'No wonder everyone's going crazy…'
He had to admit, even he would go crazy over such a beautiful furball.
He even began to doubt whether this transformation could truly help him clear dungeons.
'Status'
He summoned the panel to verify the details.
A translucent panel appeared directly in front of his eyes instead of in his hands like usual.
[Name: Eren Morrow (Moonborn Silver Wolf Transformation)
Job: Shapeshifter
Tier: I
Level: 1 (0.00%)
Type: Combat Profession
Strength: 3.0
Agility: 3.0
Spirit: 1.2 / 3.0
Constitution: 4.0
Beast Skills:Protection of the Moon Goddess (Passive Lv.1), Presence Sense (Passive Lv.1), Moonrend Claw (Active Lv.1), Minor Lunar Benediction (Active Lv.1)]
[Protection of the Moon Goddess: A divine blessing that grants high resistance against all forms of soul-based attacks and curses. At night, especially under a full moon, this protection becomes even stronger.]
[Presence Sense: As a Divine Blood beast, the Moonborn Silver Wolf possesses heightened senses. Within a one-hundred-meter radius, no living being of the same tier can escape its perception unless their stealth skill far exceeds the level of Presence Sense.]
[Moonrend Claw: By consuming 0.2 Spirit, the claws are coated in lunar energy to deliver a powerful strike. This attack completely ignores all forms of defense and directly damages the target's soul. Damage against Abyssal Creatures and Dark-attribute beings is doubled.]
[Minor Lunar Benediction: By consuming 0.5 Spirit, this skill heals 20% of the target's total health and purifies all forms of negative effects.]
What the…?!
Eren stared in shock at the absurd details.
Natural protection against curses and soul damage.
A powerful sensory ability.
An attack that specifically targeted Abyssal and Dark factions.
And a skill that could both heal and remove debuffs at the same time.
This was simply too good to be true.
Even in his previous life, when he played summoner-type games, he had rarely obtained such an incredible creature.
All the dissatisfaction he had felt earlier vanished instantly.
Once Kael placed him inside the bathroom and closed the door, Eren transformed back into his human form.
He felt the enhanced strength slowly leave his body.
A slight headache formed due to the near exhaustion of his spiritual energy.
"Pass me my clothes…"
Dorian immediately handed his clothes over the door.
Eren put them on quickly and stepped outside.
The first thing he did was grab Kael's wrist and twist it behind his back, applying upward pressure.
"Ow! Ow! E-Eren! That hurts! I'm sorry, man! Damn it, he's so fucking strong!"
Only after making him cry out for a while did Eren finally feel satisfied and let go.
When they exited the bathroom, Lyra was the only one waiting for them.
The remaining students had gathered on the other side of the playground.
When Lyra saw them, she immediately waved.
"Eren, your transformation is really cute!"
Eren shot her an annoyed look before shifting his gaze toward the crowd across the field.
"What the hell is going on over there?"
"A lot happened while you guys were gone…" Lyra began recounting everything that had occurred in their absence.
