Chapter 119: Hot or cold?
Chapter 119: Hot or cold?
Atlan walked through the calm streets of Genesis City back to his house. He looked down at his new black battle suit and found that it fit him quite well.
Black suits me.
Once Razer gave him his 'prize' for winning their competition, the Olympians soon said their goodbyes.
They said that they still had to fill out a lot of paperwork with Genesis City because of this incident. Since they were only visitors, they were only given a slap on the wrist instead of a total blacklist on missions like the other Genesians that were caught.
He heard from Razer that the lightest punishment for the delinquents was 1 year of prison time.
For Atlan, that wasn't that harsh of a punishment because he already had enough experience from reaping all the deaths. He just needed time to consolidate his advancements to other stages.
Of course, he would rather go on missions and kill Canzers on his own.
His new Pre-Intern stage Berserk LifeSkill taught him that there were a lot more rewards for him if he fought stronger and stronger Canzers. It was risky, but if Atlan survived, then he would only get stronger and stronger, which would allow him to fight stronger opponents and continue the cycle.
What am I thinking…did I forget that there's no immortality to protect me?
From this incident alone, Atlan witnessed two people die from the colossal Humanoid Wolf. They didn't even know what hit them. They died instantly.
The worst part about it was that he was probably the only person who knew that they died. The Olympians and the Genesians all thought that those who 'died' could still be revived in the church. They still thought that the Angels preserved their lives. Read latest chapters at mvl
Because of that, nobody mourned their deaths.
When he asked Razer and Sola about what they were going to do with the 'corpses', they replied that they were going to send them back to Olympus to receive blessing from the gods.
Atlan didn't even know if he could call them corpses at this point. They were more like a mushy soup of blood and flesh which they scraped off the streets in the Remedium.
Of course, Atlan didn't say anything to them.
He simply waved them goodbye and said nothing further. If they went back to Olympus and saw that the dead bodies weren't getting resurrected, then they would know it by then.
After a few minutes, Atlan stopped walking. He didn't notice it but he was finally at his doorstep. He was so preoccupied with thinking about that stuff that he didn't notice that he was already home.
All he wanted to do now was to lay in his comfortable bed and fall asleep after a long day, but he couldn't. He still had to check something.
—Berserker: (D) Bloodline Transformation
——— 1st stage Pre-Intern
———— ( 0/100,000 )
———— 10x F class fragments
Atlan immediately used up his extra fragments to upgrade its class.
—Berserker: (B) Bloodline Transformation
——— 1st stage Pre-Intern
———— ( 0/100,000 )
———— 4x F class fragments
He was tempted to immediately upgrade it to the 2nd stage Pre-Intern realm. However, the required experience made him doublethink his decision. Although he could afford it, he wondered whether it was worth it or not.

Should I see how this LifeSkill works first?
Atlan looked down at his Soul System and saw a new planet orbiting the solar system made up of his LifeSkills. He was surprised to see that the design plastered all over the surface of the planet was the helix structure of his Genuses! And it didn't just copy his multiple Genuses, it copied the two 10-star rarity Genuses he had: the Angel genus and the Grim Reaper genus.
The LifeSkill name is called Bloodline Transformation. And those two 10-star genuses are what made my bloodline into what it is now. Does that mean that I will transform into those two Genuses?
Atlan took a quick look around his house with his Thermal Vision. When he saw that there was no one spying on him, Atlan commanded his giant hand to hover around his new LifeSkill.
With bated breaths, the giant hand slowly gripped the LifeSkill planet. Atlan was surprised to see that it could touch the planet, which meant that he could activate the LifeSkill right away!
It wasn't like the Apocalyptic Hellfire LifeSkill that needed a projectile to activate. It also wasn't like the Cherubic Retribution LifeSkill that needed a stationary target to grip the LifeSkill. He could use it right now!
Excitement filled his body. He never thought he'd be able to activate a Pre-Intern LifeSkill so soon.
He didn't know what to expect. After all, he didn't even know the difference between a Student and a Pre-Intern. He didn't know how big the power difference was between the two.
As he gripped the LifeSkill planet with his giant hand, a hot and cold sensation flowed through his veins. On the left side of his body, hot liquid flowed alongside his blood and boiled his flesh. On the right side, cold liquid froze all his blood and his organs into submission.
The two forces were fighting inside his body, waging wars and destroying his innards.
Kugh!
This was the first time that Atlan felt pain and suffering from activating his LifeSkill. He fell on his knees. Even his SSS class Physique couldn't overcome the tyrannical rule of both sides.
[SoulTime]
—40 yrs : 111 d : 01 hrs : 09 min : 23 s
—40 yrs : 111 d : 01 hrs : 08 min : 23 s
—40 yrs : 111 d : 01 hrs : 07 min : 23 s
He was losing a minute of his SoulTime every second!
There must be something wrong with this LifeSkill…Kagh!...Is it because it's in the Pre-Intern realm and my body can't take it yet?
But as Atlan thought about it, he figured out that it wasn't his body that couldn't take it. It was the LifeSkill itself! Two types of energies flowed from his LifeSkill and those two were fighting trying to dominate each other. They couldn't co-exist within the same space! One of them had to go.
Atlan had to choose. Hot or Cold?
