In his dying breath, Linri thought about his life. Maybe OG Linri was really controlling his life and that was why he had lost. He was so close to winning but his dream shattered in one big swoop. Everything he did was pointless, he would have never been able to win. How could he even hope to win? How could he forget one of his philosophies? Grand hopes set you up for even grander failures. He had made a mistake by hoping he could win in the first place. He wasn"t Linri, he was Max. Your average ordinary guy thrusted in this forsaken world.After losing what little he had of his consciousness the [Silver Serpent Bracelet] on his right arm had come back to life. It turned back to its animal form and looked at its owner in pity. However, it did not leave Linri"s side. It still believed that his owner could live but it would come at the cost of a great price. The serpent did not care about the price and it bit his owner. The beautiful silver of its scales lost its l.u.s.tre and took on a metallic appearance. Then it turned back to its bracelet form and nested on Linri"s arm. This was all it could do and the rest would depend on him.
All the wounds on Linri"s body started to heal at a visible pace. His white hair which was covered in blood started to turn black. The big hole on his torso closed itself. Then a pair of animal ears and tail appeared on his body. His canine teeth grew longer and he could feel his muscles expanding.
Linri got up from the ground. He was feeling powerful like he had never felt before. It felt like he could instantly catch Rina by the throat and rip it apart!

Skills: Night [Avatar of Ice G.o.d]
Skoll"s Tenacity: This a pa.s.sive ability of Linri"s Ex-Burst during the night. When Linri is in his [Avatar of the Ice G.o.d] for every 5 seconds he is able to recover 25% of his health.
Frost Bite: This is a buff which Linri can only use in his Ex-Burst form. Linri enchants a weapon with the power of his ice for 10 seconds. The enchanted weapon freezes the opponent. Their agility and speed attribute would fall down by 1 rank for 15 seconds and they lose %5 of their health every five seconds during the time frame this debuff is active. If they are attacked again the debuff time count resets. Enchanting a normal weapon costs 15 prana enchanting a weapon made of ice doesn"t cost any prana as they are already made of ice.
Lozna"s Spear: This is an attack Linri can only use in his Ex-Burst form. Linri creates an image of War G.o.d Lozna"s famed spear [Tear of Moon]. This spear deals [3x Superior Strength] of damage and travels at [2x Exceptional Speed]. If the spear successfully hits its target, it explodes and deals [2x Exceptional Strength] AoE damage. It costs 25 prana to create one spear. Linri can only shoot 2 spears every 5 seconds.
Hati"s Prison: This is a restraining skill Linri can only use in his Ex-Burst form. Linri traps his opponents in a dome made of ice with [3x Superior Endurance]. Once attacked from the inside the wall of the dome would be covered with spikes which deals [2x Exceptional Strength] of damage to those inside it. If they can"t break out they would be trapped inside for 30 seconds. This move costs 30 prana.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Once Linri saw his stats his eyes became as big as saucers. He was in his [Ex-Burst] form? How? What? Why? He didn"t request help from Lozna so it should have been impossible for him to unlock his [Ex-Burst]. Also, this was different from what he remembered. Even the name of his [Ex-Burst] was different. Originally it should have been named [Avatar of the Day and Night] but now it was named [Avatar of Fire and Ice G.o.d]. The skills themselves were also vastly different from what he remembered.
First of all, he didn"t have a pa.s.sive named [Skoll"s Tenacity]. Also, why couldn"t Linri see anything about the constant prana regeneration? Could he still regain prana in this form like his old [Ex-Burst]? Secondly [Lozna"s Spear], originally this attack should have been named [Ice Spear] and only deal [2x Exceptional Strength] of damage and only travelled at average speed. It also didn"t have any sort of AoE ability.
Lastly, the f.u.c.king elephant in the room, what the f.u.c.k was going on with his attributes? Linri was not supposed to gain any attributes upon transformation. He should have been only able to gain access to some new attack skills. With these attributes did he even need to use any attack skills? He could just teleport behind Rina and rip her throat! Yes! He wanted to rip her throat and drink her blood! Linri licked his lips, just the thought of seeing the life scattering away from Rina"s eyes was enough to drive him crazy!
Wait, wait, wait! Linri bit his lips so hard that blood started to come out of them but the moment he stopped the wound immediately healed itself. Oh, my f.u.c.king G.o.d! One of his nightmares had come to life. He was affected by the racial trait of werewolves [Bloodl.u.s.t]. Now that he thought about it, his race in the interface had changed from [Human (?)] to [Werewolf (?)]. Rina should count her lucky stars as he was not a real werewolf, otherwise, he would already be drinking blood from her skull!
Also what the f.u.c.k was the [5x Burst Instinct] attribute? That wasn"t in the club! Was he going to get an instinct form like a certain Saiyan? Did that refer to his animalistic instincts? But then why did it become an attribute? How can it be quantified as an attribute and even upgraded to burst level?
The last question on his mind was the most crucial one. How in the h.e.l.l his [AI Chip] updated this information. Before he had to manually update his own ability and skills but the moment he had unlocked his [Ex-Burst] form it was already there for him to see. Even though he had pa.s.sed out for a second there, it was impossible for him to update it himself. If he did the description would be that of his old [Ex-Burst]. That also ruled out the possibility that [AI Chip] pulled this information from his memories.
There wasn"t a logical answer to this question...meh. It wasn"t his problem. The future Linri should do everything he could to find an answer. His mission, for now, was to defeat his opponent, Rina. Oh yeah, he had forgotten it due to excitement of coming back to life but where was Rina anyway?
Linri turned his head around to see Rina lying in the ground. Did she pa.s.s out? Did that mean he could be counted as the winner of this fight? Then what was even the point of his transformation!? This was so frustrating. It was like getting a new toy in your hands but your parents telling you to wait until after dinner to play with it!
"Ugh!"
Linri"s ears twitched. Now that he looked at her closely Rina was not pa.s.sed out. She was actually awake and lightning started to crackle around her once more. The electromagnetism of her lightning pushed her up from the ground and she stood up. She didn"t even have enough strength to lift her arms up but she still wanted to fight? Oh yeah! She was probably not aware that Linri perfectly recovered from his injuries so she must have thought he was in his last breath.
"Hey, if you don"t know I have recovered from my injuries and even powered up. Since you gave me a heads up before I will do the same. Give up" said Linri.
"No! Not in a million years!" Rina said. It was as if she was spitting the words but Linri had to commend her courage. Unlike him, at the start of the fight, she did not tremble before him.
"Okay, then get ready for the final round!" said Linri as he arched his back and went down in all fours. A pair of claws made of ice materialised in his hand!
