Chapter 918 A Burning Cut
Sin had transformed his body once again after being taken down, and now an intense heat was being given off from his body. It was so intense that Gary even received a message from his system.
He would constantly lose HP as well as energy during his fight, and his energy was already low from using a large number of moves.
Right then, Sin charged from his position, the fire boosting him, making him faster than before. Gary lifted his arms up to block the attack, and he was. .h.i.t; his entire body moved back a few inches, but the fists were coming in one after the other, moving his feet back ever so slightly.
‘He’s fast, he’s really fast, is he just as fast as me!’ Gary started to think.
What was even worse though, was the fact that his energy was running low. Standing his ground, Gary then swung his arm and enacted his Claw Swipe. The energy went forward, cracking the ground and tearing through the building on another side. However, it hadn’t hit Sin.
Instead, Sin was right by his side with his flaming wings and swung both of his arms up, and from underneath Gary’s feet, he felt his entire body being lifted up by a tornado of fire.
Right after that, the fire started to envelop him as if it was alive. It covered his body and then forced Gary down like a tunnel of wind, sending him cras.h.i.+ng into the ground.
The flames continued to hit Gary’s body again and again until they had completely singed and evaporated into the ground.
[-86 HP]
‘That was the biggest hit,’ Gary thought, getting up from the floor and jumping back, creating s.p.a.ce between the two. ‘During that entire confrontation, my HP was going down regardless of the hit, and my energy is lower than before.’
‘Although my endurance is high, healing my tough hide, it’s taking even more energy than before. Energy and health go hand in hand with this body.’
“You really are a tough one as I expected,” Sin stated. “Others who would have been hit by that attack would have burned into nothing but ashes, yet you still stand. Let’s see which one of us is going to last longer then!”
A large amount of heat expanded out with flames from his wings, and Sin was boosted forward again. The flames were propelling him like a rocket, heading straight for his target.
Taking the hit head-on again wasn’t an option for Gary. If he just did the same thing again and again, he would lose this fight, and that was the same with the Lethal Pounce.
‘I don’t have the Last Stand skill… I already used it, so there’s no second chances in this fight. I have to do what I can.’ Gary thought, spreading his legs and placing both of his hands by his side. A change started to occur.
“If I’m going to lose my energy anyway, then I might as well use it all up getting rid of you!”
[Full Transformation]
Gary’s entire body grew slightly larger, his muscles bulging, fur covering his entire body. Finally, he was in his full form. He was slightly faster, stronger, and more menacing in this state.
When Sin threw out a fist full of flames, Gary blocked it head-on, grabbing the fist.

[-1 HP]
Holding on tight, Gary kicked Sin in the stomach, sending him in the air. But he only went a meter or two back before he sprang into flames and came back like a shooting star, hitting Gary directly in his body.
Gary gritted his teeth, holding on tight to Sin, as the flames were growing. To the outsiders watching, it appeared as if Gary was trying to hold back a large meteor, due to the large amount of flames that were coming back.
[-15 HP]

‘The flames on his body, it’s getting even more intense. Never mind me running out of energy, at this rate, I’m going to run out of HP as well.’
Tensing and using all the strength he could, Gary pushed on Sin’s body, pus.h.i.+ng him into the ground. He lifted his feet and started to stomp on Sin’s body, but the heat was still causing him to lose HP.
A large amount of flames exploded from Sin’s body, and seeing this, Gary quickly jumped back until he had landed on the buildings at the side and was now hanging halfway down the building.
[210/1000 Energy]
[762/1000 HP]
‘This… is not good. I never imagined I would be in this situation, where I would be worrying more about my Energy than my HP. The boost from consuming the Warden helped with my resistance and HP; that might be the reason why.’
‘If I hadn’t consumed her, I might have already been dead in this fight, but I can’t just keep doing the same thing.’
Sin had risen from the ground and was now in the air in the middle of the street, looking at Gary hanging on the wall at the same level.
“I can tell, you’re worried about something… It looks like this is close to your end!” Sin charged forward, coming in at great speed.
Gary tensed his legs and kicked off the building, breaking its structure and causing it to bend inward. While in the air, he swung his fists and continuously used the Claw Swipe.
‘This move uses a large amount of my energy, but all I can do now is focus on this!’
With Sin moving so fast, he allowed for the Claw Swipe to hit his body, but only the side. It had cut across his shoulder, removing the flames. When the second and third Claw Swipe hit his shoulder, it had pierced through the flames and hit his skin, causing blood to drop.
Gary had seen this all before, and sooner or later, the wound would just heal. But focusing on this point, with his energy so low, Gary crashed right into Sin’s body.
Everyone looked up into the sky as the two powers collided, and flames exploded everywhere. They were unable to see much as it appeared like a small sun in the sky, and then they could see it; they could see Gary’s Werewolf body falling to the ground.
“Gary!” Kai shouted.
Out of the clash, it appeared there was a winner as Gary fell and bounced slightly when hitting the ground.
“F*ck!” Innu shouted, but when looking at Sin, he noticed something.
“It looks like Sin didn’t come out of that unscathed,” Midwak said, and he had a deep smile.
When looking at the air, everyone was starting to notice Sin no longer had his arm attached to his body. From his shoulder, it had been completely ripped off.
Then when they looked on the ground, they could see in Gary’s hand, there was an arm, still covered in flames and the special red feathers.
Slowly, Gary got up from the floor and held the burning arm in his hand; it was still hurting him even now.
[-1HP]
[-1HP]
Then looking at the flaming hand, Gary opened his mouth wide and bit right into it there and then, flames covering his entire mouth and the red feathers falling onto the floor.
