With the stakes higher than expected, I had no choice but to transform if I wanted to win. Throwing my rifle down, I let the mutant slime cover my arms and legs. My kitsune ears and hair had also been coated, allowing me to push the transformation further.
Like Akira's mutant armour, most of my body had been covered, but it took the form of a beast rather than just armour.
"Wonderful~!!! Let's see how strong this form of yours is compared to mine!" Wakano was ecstatic to see my transformation. The flaming kitsune that engulfed her body flared up as she prepared to charge at me.
I had never gone this far before, so I had to trust that it was enough to fend off Wakano. Before I could make any preparations, Wakano sprinted towards me, leaving a trail of fire.
