2 Having My Fill

My eyes filled with greed, I eyed the surrounding eggs. I moved to the nearest on then opening my mouth I tried to swallow it whole. Near the tip, my mouth was fixed unable to go further than what seemed like one-fourth of the egg. I had heard snakes can expand their mouth to twice their size so, I didn't think before trying to shove it inside my mouth.

The result? I am stuck neither being able to swallow it nor cough it out. I struggled like that for a few minutes then, it came to me.

'I'm an idiot. I could just cultivate it all.'

The egg completely disappeared from my mouth.

'I guess that didn't count as a low being?'

Then I started my eating spree, I mean cultivating spree moving from one egg to another.

Within a few minutes I had absorbed 100 eggs.

'Eh? This doesn't look good. Wouldn't I have to work myself to death fot those attributes if this mission continued.'

I looked around the sea of eggs, surrendering my desire to strengthen myself I started cultivation my ass no, my tail off.

Moving about absorbing the eggs, I realised I was growing not just my attributes but my size as well. Now, I could fit almost half of an egg inside my mouth.

Gradually I noticed, I could absorb other eggs around just by the touch of my body. Enlightened by the discovery I felt rejuvenated.

Absorbing around dozen eggs at once, about an hour later I had completed the quest. About one-hundredth of the sea of eggs was now empty. And as expected, I received another similar quest after the completion. No, something was different this time.

Bloodline -???

Failure: No consequences>

I was startled by the discovery that I could gain bloodlines as well. I fortified my will and continued my quest for egg absorption.

A few hours later, I had grown to the size of about a few metres, a gigantic frame compared to my previous size. Now, I could cultivate around a hundred eggs at once, speeding up my development by a lot.

Finally at 9th hour of my final quest I completed it all. It took me so long as the eggs were far apart compared to the previous closely compacted eggs. Clearing around the one-tenth of the sea of eggs I laid satisfied by my hard work.

Then, the completion notification arrived. I leaped up in joy to look what sort of bloodline I gained.

I excitedly opened up my stats.

Just as I was about to open my Innate menu, I received another notification.

Before I could think anything, I lost consciousness.

'Ding'

Just as I woke up, I received a series of notifications.

'Huh? Atleast inform me before sending me away bro!'

'Sae? That's it?'

'The abbreviation sounds cool though. The stats increased so much? Anyways, they finally evened out, it was such a hassle with decimals and uneven ones.'

Finally, after collecting my thoughts I noticed.

'I've become smaller?'

My body was currently just a metre long, a lot different from the previous gigantic frame. It felt more refined and strengthened. It wasn't just the strength. I felt I could act a lot faster than compared to the species. My vision also got way more refined.

As I was lost in thoughts, I started sensing cracking sounds all around me.

'So, it's time.'

Focusing on my surroundings, I noticed the hatchlings around me and prepared bring forth my carnage once more.

Just as I was about gulp the one nearest to me, my vision contracted as I saw a gigantic frame about hundreds of metres long.

In the dim the light of the unknown location, I saw the largest being that I had ever scene.

I shuddered, as it was looking precisely at me, with its red eyes and dark shiny scales all over its body. Flipping out its twin tipped tongue.

"Mom?" I blurted in a hissing voice.
