Frog Girl Frog Girl Frog Girl! I am every bit as excited as the kid who surprisingly gets exactly what he wants for Christmas.

Nope, I think I am crying again. I expected a voluptuous beautiful human cross frog lady…but she turned into a loli. Don’t get me wrong, she’s so cute I will probably barf a rainbow, but she just looks too young.

Oh, a notification?

“Congratulations! You are the first person to have evolved their Beast Companion! You have unlocked the special Shop! Your account has been awarded 1 Gold Coin!”

I’m not complaining, but I don’t think I need the Shop right now. Trying to save money and all…

Well, time to head back to camp. It’s getting dark.

Nara was having difficulty in her new form so I volunteered to carry her on my shoulders. I forgot about the mucus…this feels weird. When she had transformed, she didn’t have any clothes, so I gave her some animal skins I had. But she decided not to wear them.

Great, a nudist frog daughter. What else?

She had really pale green skin but dark green freckles and hair. I guess she is kind of speckled. Her hair matched her freckles for the most part, but had a starburst section of hair that was bright blue. I checked her feet, but they weren’t cold or blue anymore. Her hair was always dripping with her mucus. For some reason, it smelled like…fresh snow.

Before walking back into camp, I took Nara down off my now drenched neck and shoulders to wrap her in the animal skins. She struggled at first, but soon quieted down as we entered the camp.

Eyes turned to look at the little slimy girl. Look, she was going to have to learn to toggle that off. But Lester, who was with the Stooges, kind of froze.

Hey, you better not be thinking of my little Nara!

“Sir, is that Nara?”

“Yeah. Why.”

“Eh?! *cough* how many mana stones did it take?”

Oh? Am I misunderstanding?

“Well, there was two Onyx Scaled Snakes and a whole lot of lower leveled Beasts. About a total of 18? Maybe? I don’t keep count.”

“Then that means you not only killed another Onyx Snake, but 16 more Beasts as well…”

“Yep, and all by myself. Was trying to get some new Skills, but I need to fight something stronger.”

Everyone just kind of fainted standing up. Is that not normal? Oh well. I don’t care. Oh hey, Mo is coming around.

“Boss, you evolved a Divine Beast, defeated over 15 Beasts in under 5 hours, and even think that that’s no big deal? I can see it on your face that you think we are overreacting.”

“Yeah, Boss. You’re making a molehill out of a mountain.”

“Shut up, Curly!”

Cha!

“You damn! Fine! Here I come, Larry”

Great. They started to fight again. And they even started to call each other by the nicknames. Geez, that sounds destructive. Well, at least Lester is starting to wake up.

“Dang, I thought I was going to do the best today. I managed to defeat another Beast by myself and gained another Spell.”

Well? Is he…he’s baiting me. I can tell. He keeps looking this way. He wants me to…aw hell I hate being the leader.

“Fine, what is it?”

“Hehe, Roast!”

Great. He struck a pose. Besides, how cool is this guy going to get? Oh wait…

“Did you figure out if you can dress wounds properly?”

Oops, he got sad. Guess I forgot to praise him.

“Yeah, all what you said went well. I can properly dress wounds really quickly, and even fix food to make it look more appetizing. It also helps that my dad already taught me how to cook. I can also switch clothes fast. Don’t know how well this Skill will work in battle.”

“I do. You are a Jack of…Some Trades with you having some Combat Skills, a first aid Skill, and now even a fire Spell. By the way, how does it work?”

“Haha! Yes, it works just like my dad taught me! It cooks evenly around the entire target. Great for making good meat!”

“So a fire Spell that surrounds the enemy in flames? Nice!”

Wow, he wiped his nose. Is he really this big of a tool? I can see his every thought on his face.

Okay, time for training.

“Boss! Please! I don’t know what I did, but I apologize! Let me sleep!”

“Nope. Three more reps then it’s time for the rest of your night time training. I didn’t think you would take forever with only 50 extra pounds. Come on.”

“Ugh, yes sir!”

I guess I will also do the exercise. I don’t know how bad it is, but it shouldn’t be that bad. I mean, if Lester was truly having trouble, he would have switched on his Lift Skill. Maybe I should go with the underwater training next time. I do have the Breathe Spell, after all.

Hoo, that’s a good burn. Ooh, another notification!

“Congratulations! This training has increased Strength! This training has increased Endurance! This training has increased Speed! This training has increased Dexterity! This training has increased Agility! This training has increased Carry Limit!”

No Resistance this time. Oh well. I guess I will join these guys in their daily training. But tomorrow, we should head out towards the Coliseum. Sooner we leave, sooner we arrive.

It’s been a couple days.

Nara has managed to sort of control her mucus output. Except when she’s excited. And she gets excited around me. Whatever, it’s not like I would get angry at her.

“Oh Nara. You’re getting mucus on my chair again. Here, sit on this chair and then you can scoot up next to me.”

She’s smart. She can now follow easy conversations, but I haven’t quite managed to get her to talk. She usually sleeps in my bed as I tell her a story before she conks out and I log out. But tonight she doesn’t seem to want to sit still.

“Come here, Nara. What’s wrong? Are you wanting to tell me something? How cool I am, or how happy you are to be with me? Hahaha, just a joke.”

Hehehe, a good head rub and she forgets about my stupid remarks. And I feel a little calmer. I wonder if I can get a lizard girl or a spider girl…What? I guess I am a leg man. I checked the threads earlier and noticed that some people are trying to set up peaceful relations with Monster Tribes. Good job, guys. Kick violence to the curb…or don’t because that would be violent.

Not that I care, I just don’t want to fight in unnecessary fights. If I go around physically teaching people lessons, someone’s going to call the guards. And I know I’m not capable in an actual fight yet.

“Hmm? What is it, Nara?”

Oops, I forgot I was still rubbing her head. She grabs my hands to get me to stop and then looks right at me.

“Papa, we have enemies! There are at least 15 of them circling the camp!”

Eh? What happened? That’s not quite what I expected Nara’s first words to be…I was kind of thinking ‘I love you, Master,’ or, you know, Daddy works just as fine. I am severely disappointed in you, Me, for not setting the right flags.

I’m sorry…I guess it's time to deal with this.
