BXBX NOVEL Chapter 95 Finding Aella - Part 1
\'Ding\'
[ Command Accepted ]
[ Scanning the normal crow ]
[ ... ]
As Shin continued to stare at the crow, the scan started.
Within a minute the scan was over, however, it seemed like the system was copying and processing the image and structure.
[ Processing... ]
\'Ding\'
[ Normal Crow Lv.4 has been saved as the third mimic ]
[ -> The host can now use the mimic to transform into one ]
Now thanks to this, Shin would be able to search Aella much easily.
Shin\'s eyes started to glow as he selected the third option that was flashing on the screen which appeared after the scanning process.
[ -> Mimics ]
[ --> Option 1: Toxos Cenepede Lv.15 ]
[ --> Option 2: Heavy Slime Lv.10 ]
[ --> Option 3: Normal Crow Lv.4 ]
-< choose a beast into which you need to save as mimic >-
The reason why the levels for the mimics were written was because Shin\'s actual level would regress!
He would become the same level as the mimic, and would no longer be able to use any skill of his own except \'Transformtaion\' to transform back that is. Of course, the other skills that he would have are passive skills! None of the active skills other than transformation would be inherited, not now at the least.
\'Ding\'
[ You have used the skill transformation ]
[ You have chosen to transform into a mimic ]
[ You have chosen option 3 ]
[ You will be transformed into a Normal Crow Lv.4 ]
All of a sudden his body started to emit faint light and in a blink of an eye, his size was halved and he turned into a crow!

There were three main advantages of mimic, one was that Shin was able to transform into other beings.
The second was that his entire stats changed, of course, the exception was his passive skills, age, name, and intelligence. The advantage of these changes was unique, he could use the active skills of the mimic, and even if his HP were to drop to zero, he wouldn\'t die.
He would just return his normal form with full HP. If his MP was to be exhausted, after returning to real form, he would have full MP.
The third and last thing was that, even in mimic form, he could garner exp points. Of course, that exp would be added to the mimic leading to the mimic\'s evolution or leveling up, in total, it was something that would help him grow as a whole!
How advantageous was it?
Shin knew all this, he had experimented with them earlier. He wasn\'t wasting his time this entire time after all.
His body was covered with black feathers at the moment, of course, he mimicked a crow after all!
Instead of a long extended facial bone with sharp teeth, he had a beak, another normal feature of a normal crow.
When he tried to stretch his wings, because he had to fly and get out of the cart, his wings ended up touching the barrel.
\'Damn, I need to fly with the least amount of stretching...\', he said to himself.
Right after that, he decreased the extension of the wings by half and then looked towards the ceiling of the cart.
\'Ding\'
[ You have used the skill Fly ]
[ -> The weight of the body in total will be reduced by half ]
[ -> The dexterity of your wings will be increased by 10% ]
His eyes shined with green light right after which his body started to levitate.
Well, this was thanks to his wings which were able to push enough amount of air downwards that lifted his body, following newton\'s third law of motion after all!
Of course, mana wasn\'t involved in this case probably because this was the innate skill of the crow or birds!
He was out of the barrel however he hit the ceiling because of uncontrollable flight!
"Ouch!", he said in a low voice.
Well, he didn\'t actually get hurt, his pain nullification was active after all.
It was something that came out of his mouth just because he thought that it would pain by hitting the ceiling, which happens quite normally with humans!
In any case, he stabilized his flight a bit however it was still quite uncontrollable!
He ended up falling on the ground, of course out of the cart after hitting the ceiling.
"Shooo!", said the trader after observing Shin.
He thought that it was a crow due to which he said that, if it had been anything else, probably it would have gotten a hit or something.
Shin almost immediately flew away without wasting any time.
\'This is my first time flying.\', was what he said to himself while looking at all the houses and shops that were below him.
Even in his past life, he had not once traveled in a plane.
In any case, he didn\'t have the leisure to enjoy the views and everything.
\'System, search Aella.\', he commanded the system.
The system couldn\'t possibly do everything. It did have a navigation option and could search objects, however, that too had a range!
\'Ding\'
[ Command Accepted ]
[ Searching for Aella... ]
A buffering-like moving icon popped up as if it was symbolizing the process of searching.
Whatever he was just flying at a height where normal birds used to fly too.
He could view many places and out of that, he was trying to spot the place with the majority of the crowd!
\'Ding\'
[ You have used the skill Focus ]
[ -> Your eyes have been enhanced with increased in focus ]
Shin was then able to take a look at the places much more easily.
Now he could accurately even look at the people\'s faces, of course, he had no need for that.
And just when he was searching for Aella, he found a rather large crowd just north of him, of course, below him!
A lot of people with armor were moving here and there while most of them were standing at the same place.
Some drums were bring beaten and loud noises were being made as if they were celebrating something.
\'Could it be...\', and just when Shin had thought it was the same crowd that he was trying to find, the system notification popped up confirming that he was right!
\'Ding\'
[ Search completed ]
[ Aella found ]
[ 0.5 miles towards north, 0.1 miles towards the ground ]
As soon as this notification popped up, Shin was completely sure that he had found Aella.
Needless to say, he was now ready to rescue her, but for that, he had to actually look if she was indeed alright.
In any case, since he had found the humans, now his task was to find where exactly they had kept Aella.
\'It\'s such a pity that I can\'t transform into a human...\', was what he said to himself.
\'There sure are many humans there, but where is she?\', was what he asked himself.
Although he had used the skill focus he couldn\'t make his eyes see everything. After all, his current level was hella low when compared to his actual level.
He thought that it would be quite hard for him to spot Aella since they would have kept her inside some container or something, however, he found her much earlier than he expected when he found a man, riding on the horse and flashing a bag which was drenched with blood.
