Roaring into the mind link, Brance brought Cynrik out of his delusions and made him look over and notice that his brother was practically holding Gabby up and quickly rushed over.
“Hey, Gabby, look, I’m still me, see, still me.” Dropping onto his knees and stretching his cheeks into a funny face, Cynrik degraded himself in total fear of his younger brother.
“Big…Bro *sniffle* are you sure you aren’t angry or want to hurt us again?” Gabby said through the beginning signs of sobs.
“Yes, yes, see, totally me! Sorry if I freaked you out, little Rabbit. Do you want to know something cool?” Waving his hands around frantically in an attempt to draw Gabby’s attention, Cynrik continuously glanced between the weepy, depressed little girl and his brother’s murderous expression.
“*Sniffle*, I guess….” Gabby said as she looked down at Cynrik with leaky eyes.
“Guess what, aside from the fact that I got a whole bunch of new stat points and seven new skills with my Lightning Affinity, there is one that has allowed me to unlock a legendary form.”
“A form that comes straight from one of the stories I have told you over several years. Kuekue.” Standing back up and taking a step backward, Cynrik smiled at Gabby and glanced at his brother.
Since he didn’t have the time to send over all the info from his power-up yet, Brance was in the dark about what new skills he had gained, so he quickly came up with a way to show off and cheer up Gabby.
“On a distant planet, in another time and space, there is a legend, a legend about a mighty and rare being that appears once every one thousand years. This being is said to have a power like no other brought about by a fabled transformation.” Cynrik began a monologue after double-checking that there was still enough time until the spawn began.
Smirking, Cynrik activated the first Lightning Affinity Skill, [Charge], and began absorbing ambient Lightning Mana particles into his body.
As he spoke, tiny flickers of electricity crackled around his body, and Cynrik reached behind his head and removed his hair tie, allowing his shoulder-length hair to cascade down.
“Over many years, other powerful beings have come to know and fear this legend. One of which was a powerful Ice Demon, who, in his fear and exasperation, destroyed the home planet from whence the legend was born and then, many years later, tried to destroy yet another world in an attempt to kill the being who had revived the myth.”
Tsst, Tsst, Tsst.
The intensity of the flickering sparks increased as Cynrik slowly spread his legs shoulder length apart and curled both his arms halfway up with balled-up fists. Next, he flexed his muscles as if he was straining against some kind of mysterious gravitational force.
[Sit back and enjoy the show, little brother, you wanted me to cheer up the little Rabbit; have it your way, Tobs, play that cover I like for SSJ Vegeta’s Theme.]
-Now Playing “Vegeta Super Saiyan Theme” Guitar Cover by 94Stones.-
[Cynrik…do we really have time for you to be so dramatic right now?] Rolling his eyes and clicking his tongue, Brance had already caught on with what his brother was doing.
[Why, of course, we do, Brancie, we still have 30 seconds, plenty of time to ascend even further beyond kuekue.]
“Tell me, Gabby, are you ready to witness a power not seen for thousands of years?” Tilting his head to the side, Cynrik timed the activation of one of his new skills [Lightning Armor] with the music.
“Grrrr ahhh, ahhhhhhhh!” Cynrik grunted through grit teeth as his hair began rising, and a surge of visible purple energy swirled around his body.
Creshendoing his vocalizations, Cynrik forcefully manipulated the ambient Lightning Mana, molding it into the visual effect he wanted and making it swirl around his body in a flashy and exciting way to witness.
The pitch black parts of his hair flashed from its natural color to a dark glowing purple and back; his eyes seemed to be charged with electricity and glowed in a soft hue, making his violet eyes even more pronounced.
The veins on his neck and arms bulged with exertion before giving way to his tense muscles expanding slightly. Exhaling through his teeth, Cynrik flinched his head upward before snapping it back down somewhat towards the ground.
Gabby’s small mouth dropped as she connected the dots at a distance of fewer than two meters. By comparing what Cynrik was saying with one of her favorite stories, she realized what was happening, and her saddened expression instantly switched to an excited and expectant one.
“You may not understand why I killed off those RaptorBasiliks without a second thought, accelerating our timer and making it harder on us. I may have thrown off my plan, but I’d say the end MORE than justifies the means.” Cynrik said as he peeked at Brance, who sighed.
“Ivar, I don’t understand; you’ve never been one to allow your boredom to control you before; why start now.” He said, his words causing Gabby to beam up at him brightly.
“My boredom has reawakened me; it may have slowed me down, but I achieved what I dreamed of through it. It has returned me to the way I was before, brother, Gabby, bear witness. Through my new Lightning Affinity skill, I am becoming the perfect warrior, cold and ruthless; I live by my strength alone.”
“Uninhibited by foolish emotions, yet slowly, as the years went by, I became one of you all. My journey for greatness gradually gave way to this life of boredom and uselessness.”
“I awoke one day to find that I had left home, joined an Academy, and formed a faction, a family. I had even grown quite fond…of some of you. It will take more than head games and boredom to stop me; I will break through and BECOME THE LEGENDARY SSJ!” Howling the finishing part of his monologue, Cynrik erupted with power as his [Lightning Armor] took full effect, changing his appearance into a bright purple SSJ. His hair fully spiked and shifted into a glowing purplish color along with his eyebrows, and sparks darted around him.
WOOOOSSHHh, GWOOO, Shwee shweee shweee!
Gabby was practically vibrating in excitement as she rapidly looked between the two brothers, ignoring that the Virtual creatures were getting ready to spawn. Instead, she allowed herself to be swept up by the moment.
Shwee shweee shweee!
“Heh,” exhaling loudly, Cynrik straightened his back and smirked cockily at Gabby and Brance.
“Well, what do you think?” Lowering the tone of his voice into a more rugged and gruff octave, Cynrik said as he looked at the notifications floating in front of his eyes.
-You have Activated [Lightning Armor]-
-You will lose 1% of your Maximum Mana every 5 seconds that it is active.-
-With this skill active, your AGI and DEX have increased by 1.5 times.-
-Since you have activated [Lightning Armor] and have met the requirements, you are now able to use the Lightning Affinity Skills [Flash Step], [Lightning Wall], [Pulse Wave], and [Shattering Bolt].-
-Warning, because you are not used to this state, and your body is under heavy strain, if you keep [Lightning Armor] active for more than 5 minutes, you begin losing HP at a rate of 5% per second.-
“It’s so cool! Big Bro, is this what your story’s legendary SSJ looks like?” Gabby chirped in awe as she clenched her fists and bounced around Cynrik.
“Yes, except they are golden, hair and aura, with green eyes, unlike me.” Looking down at his hands and clenching them tightly, Cynrik examined the strange wisps of purple Mana surging out of his Codex and around his body.
[You’re fucking stupid.] Brance replied.
[BAH! You bought into it yourself, don’t play coy, Brancie.] Cocking his head to the side and examining the particle storm floating above the room, Cynrik’s face suddenly got serious.
“Time’s up; you guys stay here; I wanna test this out a bit.”
|One minute has passed since the death of a Virtual Creature, now spawning two Early Tier-2 RaptorBasilisks.| (X12)
The particle storm touched down on the ground and separated into multiple clusters, as everyone received the same notification 12 times, indicating that 24 RaptorBasilisk were being spawned simultaneously.
The center of the room was suddenly flooded with creatures, making Gabby recoil in fear instantly. However, Brance calmly placed a hand on her shoulder and moved them back against the southern wall as Cynrik rolled out both of his arms and legs and got a feel for his increased AGI and DEX.
“Be careful, Big Bro,” Gabby softly spoke as she nervously watched Cynrik menacingly walk forward slowly while bathed in purple light.
“Don’t worry, little rabbit; your concern is completely unnecessary; I am, after all, the Legendary Super Saiyan.” Tossing a cocky smirk her way, Cynrik flicked his wrist, tapped his status a few times to assign his stat points, and sent over his updated stats to Brance.

[Fucking hell, what the shit happened to your MP, how the fuck is it so high now?] Scrolling through his brother’s updated stat sheet, Brance exhaled sharply.
[Check my Codex; it reached Tier-3 Stage 5, which came with a 5k boost. Anyway, I’ll try not to kill all these guys instantly. Although my [Lightning Armor] doesn’t increase my STR, the fact that it increased my DEX is plenty for damage output so long as I use a weapon.] With that said, Cynrik vanished from sight with a loud thunder crack and appeared directly in the center of the group of 24 RaptorBasilisk.
