My Life As A Salamander

After the help I gave with the crowsnest I was told by Sam that other parts of the ship had been damaged. There wasn't much else to do anyways. I went through the door that led to the lower decks. They had patched some of the bigger holes, but some of the smaller ones were in need of fixing. ( I am Spit Man! I am here!) I chuckled to myself as I coated the holes with the gunk. With a little flame it quickly dried into a gummy waterproof material. ( This'll be a piece of cake.) I continued walking around filling the holes till half the ship was coated in the rubbery blue stuff.

Turns out that that kracken was enough for a months supply of food. Hey cooked it into a stew today. not too salty or rubbery. Just the right texture. unfortunately I gained nothing but growth materials and a possible tentacle evolution I will never go for. Hentai is not my forte.I continued my days aboard the vessel in the same manner. helping repair here and there then eating and resting. Not that bad of a life. about two weeks into the voyage we were called to the captain's quarters. "The captain" is what the crew calls her. But her real name is Amanda Krowell. She had sailed the seas several times over I her time. "Born and bred on the sea" her crew would say. We went to her quarters. It was a small cabin at the upper back part of the ship. Not very expensive looking or overly shabby. Maps covered the oak desk in the back and a small chair sat facing the windows. The captain sits there. Her chestnut brown hair cascades down the back of the chair as her slightly scarred face faces the ocean through the windows. Her coat, hat, and scabbard hang close by on the wall." You two have done alot for my crew and I. Slaying the kracken.... fixing my ship. Protecting my crew. " Her eyes turned to look at me."What I say next does not leave this room."We both nodded.She looked at me again and slightly bowed her head. " I once thought of you as simply a monster. I hope you can accept my apologies after all you've done for me and my crew."I was slightly stunned. Noone had ever lowered there head to me I my entire existence. Noone had ever apologized to me before. I nervously shook myself." Y-you don't have anything to be sorry about. You're n-not the first and certainly won't be the last." I looked at the captain sadly realizing my own words and how truly sad they were.The captain sat up after a little and looked at Sam. " Not many can say they have a familiar as kind as yours. He's intelligent, honorable, and well spoken. Humanistic in almost every mental aspect despite his other characteristics. You'd best keep an eye on him girl. Before someone comes to s.n.a.t.c.h him from you. "
Sam paled a little at those words. " Noone has the power to take Ignis from me. The sealing has been cast. Only when I die can they take him." As I heard those words a protective feeling rose up in me. " Over my dead corpse!" I hissed angrily. I viewed Sam like a little sister . Anyone who tried to hurt her would have to go through me first.The captain tapped the arms of her chair. After a little bit of time staring at me she got up and went to her cupboard that had a large lock on it. After a little rummaging she pulled out something wrapped in a cloth." My men asked me to give you guys something to pay you back for what you've done. From what I've heard.... familiars can grow by eating magic stones from strong monsters. I got this stone from a pirate mage who loved launching boulders at pa.s.sing ships then looting he sinking vessel."She unfolded the cloth to reveal a glowing green stone about the size of an adult fist." This is a earth dragon crystal. Hard to find and even harder to sell. People always try to steal it and it's become more of a burden than what I think it's worth." She knelt and held it out to me." Take it. Perhaps you can do more with it than I can." She pursed her lips a little. I slowly moved forward and took the stone in my mouth. It fit so comfortably in my mouth. The wierd thing is that it tasted sweet. Like honey or chocolate. Without much thought I instantly swallowed it." Captain..... Thank you." I said. Sam was staring at me like I'd gone mad. "Ignis..... Did you just swallow it?" I looked at Sam slightly confused. " Yes I did.... Why?....!!!!!!!" I felt a sudden pain spread across my body as I suddenly collapsed. It was like someone was trying to peel my skin with a spoon. " Agh!"/ Host has Aquired Armored Earth Dragon Crystal. Beneficial for host. Crystal combining with hosts magic crystal.

The Kracken was all they could give me but I didn't care. I wolfed it down bit by bit. My body expanded slightly and a smart sailor lured me onto the deck with more food. They didn't want me in the captain's quarters in case I couldn't get out.For the next hour I wolfed down meat. My body became heavier and my muscle ma.s.s increased. I felt my bones groaning and stretching as my skin became thicker and more stone like. Magma like red veins crossed my wings and thick plate scales coated them. An hour after that I was stuffed and smoke started pouring off my body as I burned the calories. The muscles in my front wings changed. They became as thick if not thicker than my arms as the wings themselves became heavier. My back wings also expanded but became much larger and had greater span to make it possible for me to fly.After a few hours I had grown considerably. My size was comparable to a Rhino. My length was at least 15 feet and my weight must have increased to a little over 500 kgs. My scales were thicker and had deep red molten like viens running along them. My front wings were shields that spread 5 foot across and 5 feet high. My horns had grown to a foot and a half. My gills now had spike like appendages and seemed to filter better. My back wings spread at least 30feet across total. All in all. I looked like a monster meant for combat./ Host has evolved further than expected.
