Transformation

    <Stats>

    [Level] [23]

    [Strength] [18] [Stamina] [34]

    [Sense] [18] [Spirit] [17]

    [Magical Power] [13] [Luck] [11]

    [Unallocated Points] [66]

    Stamina +4 points.

    Spirit +2 points.

    Magical Power +1 point.

    A total of 6 points.

    She almost died, but thanks to that, she leveled up twice more.

    It was tough, but she gained a lot as well.

    Like the [Execution Sword] skill that appeared,

    If she opened the [Loot] section, in addition to the Basilisk’s scales, fangs, and eyeballs, she also obtained an item called [Ring of Contract] attached to the Basilisk’s tail.

    [Ring of Contract]

    [Rank] [S]

    [Description] [Basilisk’s tail ring. A medium used in the past when making a contract.]

    It looked like a quest item at first glance.

    But in Full Dive, quest items could be used like normal items.

    ‘Should I put it on my finger?’ It might be a cursed item, so she didn’t actually put it on.

    There was no explanation of its specs, but if she appraised it, it might have useful functions.

    The sword she took from the human knight Chris was also in the [Loot], and there was also a textbook on Northern Empire Swordsmanship. Maybe she could remove the (Inferior) tag if she read it later.

    ‘If the game continues, that is.’

    “And…”

    She had 66 unallocated points.

    She invested in [Stamina].

    [Stamina] [100]

    It was an eye-popping number.

    ‘Honestly, I wanted to increase my Stamina through training a bit more, but…’

    Today was the last day.

    She hoped it wasn’t the last day, but wishing wouldn’t change reality.

    It was just denial.

    She dumped everything in before it was too late.

    [Stamina] [100]

    Americano let out a bitter smile.

    ‘Did I invest too much in one area?’

    But [Frail] was more annoying than she thought.

    For her, with limited time, [Frail] was one of the painful mistakes. So, she invested in [Stamina] to mitigate [Frail].

    ‘With this, I won’t collapse from exhaustion during a fight.’

    Honestly, it was touch and go.

    It was fortunate that she fainted after clearing it.

    If she had fainted in the middle, she would have been frustrated and regretted it even in death.

    [Confirm allocation?]

    When she pressed [Confirm], a change occurred.

    The information window announced the change.

    [‘Stamina’ reaches 60 points.]

    [Proceed with ‘First Rebirth’?]

    [Proceeding will enter the Custom Room.]

    Oh.

    She proceeded.

    She entered the Custom Room.

    The same space as when she created her Avatar.

    The Avatar was standing in front of her.

    She thought so when she looked in the mirror, but it was pretty. The breasts, the overall figure, everything. Somehow, it looked even prettier through someone else’s eyes.

    “Unfortunately.”

    It was time to change her gender.

    [Warning. Rebirth is in progress. Excessive deformation of the skeleton may cause permanent disability.]

    It seemed impossible.

    It was possible, but she couldn’t afford to take a loss.

    Or should she change ‘only’ her gender?

    ‘No.’

    She shook her head.

    That was a bit much.

    Then…

    ‘There’s nothing to change?’

    After all, her appearance would return to its original form after she died once.

    There was nothing to fix on her face.

    She didn’t reduce her breasts.

    No changes to her waist or hips either.

    No changes to her hands or legs either.

    Americano was very satisfied with her current appearance.

    “Since I’ll have to part with it forever after I die anyway, there’s no need to change it.”

    She stroked the Avatar’s face once and immediately pressed [Confirm].

    “Huh?”

    She stopped pressing.

    “[Frail] is gone?”

    [Frail] was missing from the [Geass] section.

    Did Rebirth completely cure her physical defects?

    <Geass>

    [Outsider]

    [Hot-Tempered]

    [Ill-Fated Beauty]

    [Ill-Fated Talent]

    [ – ]

    She could set up to five Geass, and it was still possible to add more.

    “….”

    ‘Should I put [Frail] back in?’

    She had just been freed from [Frail].

    She knew firsthand the fatigue that [Frail] gave.

    It wasn’t for nothing that it was worth 10 points.

    She thought it was easy because it was 10 points that didn’t give a constant debuff, but it was also a formidable hidden card.

    She didn’t regret it.

    Because it gave her 10 points.

    Almost 3 levels in terms of level.

    There was the variable of training, but it still meant she was 3 levels ahead of others.

    50 points earned through training.

    50 points gathered through Geass.

    121 bonus points earned with her real body.

    She received a whopping 221 points as additional points, resulting in an effect that raised her level by 77.

    ‘Of course, 171 points out of the 221 points were invested in [Charm] and [Aptitude], but…’

    It was still great.

    And an additional 10 points.

    No, 15 points.

    By reaching 100 points in [Stamina], Geass worth 15 points or more were unlocked.

    By resolving [Frail] as a trigger, more diverse physical Geass were unlocked.

    There were familiar names.

    [Nine Yin Body]

    [Nine Yang Body]

    [Celestial Martial Body]

    [Demonic Martial Body]

    [Heavenly Star of Slaughter]

    And so on.

    Martial arts terms for constitutions that anyone who has read a bit of martial arts would have heard of.

    There were constitutions that didn’t seem like penalties, but after reading the descriptions, they weren’t always good.

    Celestial Martial Body. A constitution blessed with heaven-sent physique, allowing one to smoothly master all martial arts.

    But [Geass] balances things out by adding bad things if there are good things.

    [Celestial Martial Body] [Locked]

    A blessing that allows one to harmoniously learn all martial arts.

    Additional points -30

    *Unlocked when Strength 60 points, Stamina 60 points, Sense 60 points, Spirit 60 points, Magical Power 60 points, and Aptitude 60 points or higher.

    Minus.

    The conditions were strict too.

    All stats except Luck and Charm,

    60 points or higher in all stats.

    Minimum points required: 360.

    Minimum 300 excluding basic stats.

    Since the total amount of points that can be obtained through leveling up is 297 points,

    ‘If bonus and training points are insufficient, it’s impossible to choose at all?’

    It even deducted 30 points.

    It was absurd, but that meant it was that good.

    She pondered.

    And chose.

    Most of the martial arts constitutions were locked, so she had to choose a lower-level constitution.

    [Berserker]

    A curse of being seized by murderous intent and madness.

    Additional points +20

    *Unlocked when Stamina 60 points or higher, Spirit 40 points or lower, and Rebirth with a mental disorder Geass included.

    *Includes Geass [Hot-Tempered].

    After reading the detailed description page, it had the effect of amplifying various attack effects as more blood was seen.

    For someone urgently climbing the Tower, there was no better constitution.

    Besides,

    <Geass>

    [Outsider]

    [Ill-Fated Beauty]

    [Ill-Fated Talent]

    [Berserker]

    [ – ]

    ‘[Hot-Tempered] is gone too.’

    Because [Berserker] included [Hot-Tempered].

    It was positive that [Hot-Tempered] was gone. It wasn’t like she lost additional points because a Geass she had once decided on was gone.

    Anyway, another blank space was created.

    [Nine Yin Severed Meridians]

    A curse where cold air settles in the Magical Power and is always full.

    Additional points +20

    *Unlocked when Stamina 60 points or higher, Aptitude 60 points or higher, and Rebirth with a physical defect Geass included.

    Cold air settles in the Magical Power.

    It’s always full.

    She didn’t know why this was a curse, but it seemed helpful for now.

    [‘First Rebirth’ completed.]

    If there was a first, there was a second.

    [‘Stamina’ has reached 80 points.]

    [Partially meets the conditions for ‘Second Rebirth’.]

    It seemed that other conditions were also required from the second time onwards.

    “Ugh.”

    She stretched.

    She cracked her neck.

    Getting up from her seat, she hugged herself and shivered.

    “Why did it get colder?”

    She took out thick clothes from her inventory and put them on.

    But it was still cold.

    ‘Is it because of the Nine Yin Severed Meridians?’

    Cold air settles in the Magical Power.

    Always full.

    When she moved her Magical Power, the energy that cooled her body also moved along with the Magical Power. She could realize where this cold was coming from.

    ‘It’s because of the Nine Yin Severed Meridians.’

    Fortunately, it wasn’t that bad.

    Just a bit cold?

    Like the weather during the change of seasons.

    It was cold, but her body would warm up if she started moving.

    First, she allocated the stats she got from Geass.

    <Stats>

    [Level] [23]

    [Strength] [18] [Stamina] [100]

    [Sense] [18] [Spirit] [17]

    [Magical Power] [13] [Luck] [11]

    [Unallocated Points] [40]

    This.

    <Stats>

    [Level] [23]

    [Strength] [18] [Stamina] [100]

    [Sense] [18] [Spirit] [40]

    [Magical Power] [30] [Luck] [11]

    [Unallocated Points] [0]

    23 points in [Spirit].

    17 points in [Magical Power].

    She invested in each.

    Originally, she was going to invest all 40 points in [Magical Power].

    But cold air settled in her Magical Power, and when she tried investing 5 points as a test, it really got colder. Wow… it really was a curse.

    When [Magical Power] reached 30 points, the autumn weather turned into winter.

    Since her Magical Power was always full anyway, 30 points would be enough.

    And the reason she invested in the [Spirit] stat was because of [Berserker].

    One of the unlock conditions was [Spirit] 40 points or lower, so she presented the hypothesis of what would happen if she applied it with Geass and then exceeded 40 points.

    She had the expectation that she might be able to control [Berserker].

    ‘But now that I’ve invested in Magical Power, I’m 1 point short.’

    Somehow, it was exactly 40 points, but ’40 or lower’ meant it included 40.

    ‘Well, I can compare 40 and 41, so it’s okay.’

    She couldn’t do anything about what she had already invested.

    It wasn’t bad to compare.

    Of course, even though she had invested in [Spirit], she didn’t remember exactly what the effect of [Spirit] was.

    In fact, she didn’t know exactly what effects the other stats had.

    So, since [Berserker] mentioned [Spirit], she dumped all the remaining points into it.

    She had a feeling that the [Spirit] stat would help when she was seized by the madness of [Berserker], but she would have to wait and see.

    ‘I should find out the difference in effects for each stat later.’

    Anyway,

    She ascended to the [23rd Floor].

    [23rd Floor]

    The red letters [Elite Orc Warrior] were floating above the heads of the enemies in front.

    Roughly counting, there were 20 of them.

    There was also a boss-like entity.

    [Orc Chieftain]

    Crimson letters.

    She was screwed.

    Judging from her impressions of fighting crimson and red letter monsters, she couldn’t win this.

    But,

    [Berserker] wanted one of them to die for sure.

    She had no intention of losing on the 23rd floor, but [Berserker] wanted more than that.

    After [Berserker] activated and her mind went blank, when she woke up,

    Her arms were gone.

    ‘This is a bit horrifying.’

    [Restoring damage to the body.]

    Fortunately, her arms returned.

    Looking back, all the orcs she had seen earlier were brutally torn apart.

    [23rd Floor Elite Orc Unit – Cleared]

    [Rank] [SSS]

    [First Clear Reward] [Demon King Stone × 23]

    [Solo Reward] [Wish Stone × 23]

    [Reward] [11,500 Gold]

    She cleared the 23rd floor more smoothly than she thought.

    …Or not?

    She didn’t remember what she had done while [Berserker] was activated and she lost her mind.

    If she had died in that state… she would have revived anyway, but she lost her arms during the battle. Her mouth was also covered in blood for some reason.

    If even one had remained, she would have lost.

    Looking at the time, an hour had passed.

    Her mind had really flown away.

    If she died due to her own mistake, it would be acceptable. Because she could know what mistake she made. She could solve it herself.

    But [Berserker] was about entrusting her body to the game system.

    If she had died with [Berserker] activated, she would have felt a bit wronged.

    Still, she won, so was she stronger than when she was in her right mind?

    Before the battle, she thought she would lose.

    ‘…No, I invested points.’

    She just didn’t know because she hadn’t tried it.

    Maybe she would have won.

    “But that’s just an assumption.”

    Still, entrusting the entire battle to the game system wasn’t fun.

    ‘What’s the difference between this and an idle game?’

    The blood-soaked arena on the 23rd floor.

    The traces of the orcs turn to dust and disappear.

    It was a bit empty, but a win was a win.

    Judging that leaving [Berserker] as it was would be dangerous, Americano invested 1 point out of the 3 points she obtained this time in [Spirit].

    [‘Spirit’ exceeds 40 points.]

    [From now on, you will have resistance to mental disorders depending on your willpower.]

    [You will not lose consciousness even while ‘Berserker’ is activated.]

    “Hoo…”

    She exhaled cold air from her mouth.

    Fortunately, her prediction was correct.
