Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Recreating Myself [Part 2]

Zell shuddered, his body falling to the ground, losing consciousness; his newly evolved muscular chest moved slowly with his light breaths; while his body rolled around, seeming to feel great pain still.

Fifteen minutes later, his eyes opened wide, and his long, luscious eyelashes fluttered. The bright room caused him to feel dazed as he rolled over, pressing his hands upon the hard flooring.

'Fuck, it feels like a hammer smashed my stomach and bones….'

After stretching his body and testing his limbs, he found everything was alright; no, that was a lie.

He didn't feel pain anymore; everything was different; his muscles were tight and bulking, and he was now taller than most of his friends with an almost perfect balance.

'I look better than those male gods in women-aimed novels… I make models look just above average! So nice, hehe!'

Obviously, as a man, he tried out his new partner; it seems that the change was limited to his imagination and would change shape and size to a woman's ideal form.

After adjusting, it became a nice size that wouldn't affect intense battles.

'Wow… This is a shower! Life with a grower was not nice, yet now I don't need to worry. This world's average erection size was 10cm… Even flaccid, I'm nearly double that!'

—|Author wishes no one to fear NTR! So he nerfed the world's men|—

There were several things to do, and despite his perfect body, there were more questions about his desired class to answer. This confused him, as you would select your class in the game.

'Let me see, would you strike down your foes with powerful magic….'

"Let's think about this carefully. I want to make sure this is a smooth choice. Even that cute angel would laugh at me!"

Zell stood and moved away from the computer, leaning back and stretching his powerful muscles, then decided to practise the basic greatsword techniques he had learned in his previous life.

After a loud burst of air from his kick, he realised over thirty minutes had passed; filled with delight, he enjoyed this sensation of endless stamina.

Although his mana and racial skills seemed sealed before reincarnation, it was only his powerful muscle.

'I wonder if I will get an awesome half-dragon or a demon dragon form! So exciting, some people could turn into a tiger or werewolves during battle… Sadly, I only had a cute group of pets; foxes, rabbits, ferrets and cats… Those little girls fought so hard for me. '

It didn't take long before he concluded and typed his choices, all because he knew deep inside, he could only take one path to avoid being countered by the various demon forces.

— Love

After a few moments, he once again hovered over the confirm button. He chose these options for various reasons.

A Hybrid would allow him to fight against any foes, whether melee, ranged or casters. This class would be weaker than the others if he didn't select the Crimson dragon.

—| A Hybrid Magic class can only use a tier lower than the maximum for spells. |—

The penalty for choosing a Hybrid Melee class was something different and didn't affect skills but status directly.

—|A Hybrid warrior class gains fewer physical attributes per level compared to pure classes. |—

His special breed of Incubus was one that he read about in a lore book he found in an old lady's house on the quest to gain his beloved rabbit, Rika. It spoke of charming demons that used mana to empower themselves and stored the energy of the opposite sex.

—| Confirm |—

— Yes

— No

Zell pressed the confirmation and waited for something to show up. His fingers tapped a melodic beat while idle. He leaned his cheek on his palm and watched the rectangular blue bar fill up to slowly.

"Finally! Show me the money!"

His voice sounded like a terrible wav sound. Its audio quality from the '80s

Zell wanted to check almost everything possible before he moved on. There was a bonus section displayed showed on the computer. But he wanted to check the status correctly.

"It seems my elements mix wind, fire and ice. Not bad; I would like to mix them. It would be cool, like that girl in the past life. She could mix fire, wind and earth to form an amazing Magma Storm attack."

After several moments of checking, He found it was all good and prepared to click on the final section. His mind was a little tired from all this hard work.

Although it seemed like he was doing fine, the trauma and effect of dying still haunted the back of his mind, and being alone in this white room didn't help. He thought logging into the game when he returned might help ease this discomfort.
