Picking Up New Skills And... Evolution?

[Day 6]
[Your Level has increased to Level 23!]
After seeing my Skills awaken, I decided to spend some of the saved-up Skill Points I got into getting more Skills…
So this morning, after we did our daily Dungeon Diving, I got a nice amount of Skill Points saved up, it was time.
I can only dream to catch 4 Star Summon Skills, but I am pretty sure I can pick those that 3 Star Units have for now.
I had considered this for a little while, but I suppose I will grab Hiromi's Skills.
Why? They're amazing.
Yeah, it might be sad that I won't summon a cute vampire girl, but Kireina is all the vampire I require at this moment.
And it is not like she would suffer or something, I haven't even summoned her yet, so she technically doesn't exist… and she might emerge once more whenever I summon again.
So…
The Skills I will grab from her that are the [Dhampir (C)], [Vampiric Eyes of Paralysis (D)], and [Curse Caster (D)].
Yep… I am becoming a Dhampir, most likely.
I don't worry about it because it doesn't give any weaknesses, Hiromi in the original story didn't possess the weaknesses that Vampires had, similarly to Kireina, as she was a Dhampir…
Being a Dhampir brings a ton of new capabilities, and leaving aside my humanity is not a problem for me anyway, I never felt too attached to being a human, nor to this world.
Eh, that might have sounded very edgy… But that's how things are, every one of us has some edgy part within us.
I had just enough Skill Points at 11350 Skill Points…
[You exchanged 5000 Skill Points!]
[You learned the [Dhampir (C)] Skill!]
[You exchanged 3000 Skill Points!]
[You learned the [Vampiric Eyes of Paralysis (D)] Skill!]
[You exchanged 3000 Skill Points!]
[You learned the [Curse Caster (D)] Skill!]
…
[Dhampir (C)]
You are a dhampir, a half-breed between a Vampire and a Human, possessing several capabilities that Vampires do while having none of their weaknesses. However, your powers are not as strong as true Vampires. Nonetheless, you're already way above humans.
[Supernatural Strength]: You possess supernatural strength greater than any human, comparable to Vampires. Your Strength Growth Doubles and your muscles will develop further while keeping a sleek and slim build.
[Undying Body]: Your body can regenerate wounds automatically, and even lost limbs, although you don't need blood to sustain yourself, drinking it can enhance your regeneration abilities and allow you to regenerate faster, if you don't drink enough, regeneration speed will be slowed down.
[Paranormal Senses]: Your senses have been enhanced and can be considered supernatural or paranormal. You can perceive things people often don't, see spirits, ghosts, and even detect traps with ease. Your five senses have become sharp, you can see from very far away, smell things and discern what they are, and more.
[Bloodsucking]: By drinking the blood of your enemies, you can recovery mana continuously and satiate your hunger while enhancing all of your stats up to 50% when you're fully satiated.
[Negate Weaknesses]: You negate all Vampire weaknesses.
…
[Vampiric Eyes of Paralysis (D)]
Your Vampiric Eyes can inflict paralysis on foes it glares at, its effectiveness depends on the foe's resistance to paralysis, curses, and strength, alongside your own Magic and Mana Stats.
Depending on the foe, the Paralysis can only last but a second, or last minutes.
…
[Curse Caster (D)]
You're a natural inborn Curse Caster, and any Curse you cast is enhanced. Curses effectiveness double and their power over other beings who lack resistance to them become even greater. You're also capable of developing new Curse-based abilities as you learn more of your true powers.
…
The moment I picked up the Skills, my body began to convulse.
I suddenly fell over the floor as I felt my breath become heavy, my eyelids were twitching, and my senses were warping around.
Everyone around me ran to my aid, but I told them to let me be, this was only natural.
I had just become a Dhampir out of nowhere, and my senses needed to readjust to what I was becoming.
My skin began to itch like crazy, my muscles started to tear themselves apart and then heal again constantly.
My eyes felt like they were melting, and my hair was itching too, my black hair suddenly turning white.
I felt a strong thirst down my throat, and my heart stopped to beat only to beat once more but slowly.
My fangs grew larger and sharp, only by touching them with my tongue I was able to cut my tongue, which regenerated right away.
My entire body became completely cold, and then warm again.
I felt like the itching sensation was burning my skin, I saw as my skin began to peel off, and then it regenerated once more.
What was happening? This was crazier than I had expected…
I suddenly fell unconscious…

When I woke up, I felt strange.
I was able to hear things from far away, and even smell roses and the sweat of… Kireina at my side.
My eyes opened as I glanced at her, the focus of my eyes changed repeatedly, I was able to see her skin in detail, the smoothness of it, and then see her from very far away.
I felt rather sickly…
"I should have prepared better for that…" I sighed.
"Master! I am glad you're okay…" sighed Kireina, hugging me as I found myself resting on our bed, she hugged and then kissed me… Well, being pampered by her is not so bad. Perhaps I should pretend to be sick a bit more…
"I think becoming a Dhampir brought some changes in my psyche which were hard to adjust to…" I sighed.
"I can see that… But how do you feel?" she asked.
"I feel… fine for now. I just simply need to rest and adjust to my new senses and body… Though can you bring me water? I feel incredibly thirsty…" I sighed.
"Sure thing!"
Kireina went to the kitchen and bought me a cup of water.
I drank the refreshing liquid but… the soreness in my throat didn't disappear.
It wasn't particularly anything that annoying, but it was just there…
"I am still… thirsty," I said.
"Oh… I see, if you're a Dhampir, perhaps a little blood might do you some good~" said Kireina, smiling mischievously.
