I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Steve started to open his eyes when he felt that he couldn't take it anymore. The pressure he was feeling was too much and he had to admit defeat at this time.

It turns out that the influence of very heavy rain is this big. Finally, Steve knows where the limits of his strength are.

Although he felt a little disappointed. But then he can know his weakness. That way, he would be able to figure out how to deal with it as quickly as possible.

When he finally opened his eyes, Steve realized that he had fallen on the cold concrete floor.

He was in the middle of a pool of rain. The reddish aura that previously covered his body had now completely disappeared.

Not only that, but Steve also felt a chill blowing from his side.

Steve didn't even hear the screams coming from Annie because he was too focused on maintaining his Magic energy.

Now that he had released control of his Magic, Steve felt nothing but rain and cold wind blowing over his body.

From behind the curtains of the heavy rain, Steve could see that a thick bluish aura was already covering Annie's body.

Steve widened his eyes to stare at Annie. She was showing almost the same reaction as at that time.

The woman's eyes turned very blue and lit up. Even through the heavy rain covering his eyes, Steve could see that Annie's eyes were burning a bright blue.

'This is not good.'

Steve immediately stood up and glanced at the scientists.

Among them, Conrad was walking through the rain to come here.

Seeing Conrad's arrival, Steve felt relieved. It was because he felt that he would never be able to match Annie and subdue her in his current state.

As Conrad walked closer, the strands of electricity coming from these black metal pillars disappeared slowly accompanied by a rustling sound.

A moment later the strands of electricity disappeared completely.

Steve didn't waste the opportunity and immediately ran away from Annie.

However, Annie notices his attempt to escape. She stamped one foot on the concrete.

The stagnant water suddenly froze towards Steve's feet.

*CCRRRRRR!*

Steve turned at the sound of the freezing water. But he only turned his head to find that his feet were now trapped in a block of ice.

Steve looked up at Annie. He saw that Annie was looking at him with blue eyes that glowed like those of a predator.

Her lips were drawn into a grin like a ferocious beast that was staring at its prey.

The look of nervousness and fear from before had now disappeared somewhere.

There is no longer that poor woman who seems to have lost her home. Now in front of Steve is an insane woman who only has the goal of wanting to kill him.

Steve gritted his teeth. Under this pouring rain, he could not do anything to face the woman's berserk.

Looking at her now, Steve thought that Annie remembered about that time when he beat her up and she might want revenge.

Annie moved her hand and pulled Steve by the ice at his feet.

Steve was drawn towards Annie. A moment later he saw a dozen of ice blades appear around Annie in instant.

It must have been generated by her Magic freezing rainwater.

'At this rate, I could die!'

Steve swore in his heart. He tried to draw his fire Magic power as hard as possible before the ice blades slid and stabbed him.

After efforts fueled by despair, finally Steve was able to create a small flame in the palm of his hand.

He directly slammed the flames into the ice that froze his feet.

*PRANNGGG!*

The ice instantly break and Steve fell. But Annie immediately dashed towards him with incredible speed.

She then swung her fist which was encased in ice.

*BUAGHHH!*

Her punch hit Steve in the face and sent his head crashing into the concrete.

The ice in Annie's hand turned into a blade of clear ice. The light from the lightning reflected on the ice blade.

Annie then slashed it at Steve. Steve knew that now there was no time to use his dwindling Magic power.

He just stared helplessly at the ice blade that was coming toward his neck.

But Steve's life would not end there. A rope of light came and bound Annie's hand that was swinging the ice blade. Stopped her hand momentarily in the air.

Feeling her hand stop midair, Annie immediately looked back.

Conrad was walking towards her.

Conrad walked quietly while from his hand came the rope of light that bound Annie's hand.

"Annie, you there?" Conrad asked. "Don't lose control. Listen to my voice!"

As Conrad said that suddenly Annie's eyes which were lit blue flickered back to her previous brown eyes.

Her senses seemed to be pulled back from the deep well to return to the surface. But that sense wasn't there for long.

A moment later the blue eyes returned. The madness that the Magic brought overtook Annie again.

Conrad sighed. He didn't look scared. It's just that he feels it's so unfortunate that Annie is like this for the second time.

Could it be that after this she could still return to normal?

'Yeah! She can still return to normal! I can't give up just yet.'

Conrad decided to remain optimistic. He had to keep trying to get Annie back to normal.

She is a valuable subject. After a long time, they did experiments, they finally succeeded in instilling Magic in ordinary humans on the first try.

It can't fail now.

Annie jumped at Conrad as if forgetting Steve.

Steve could finally heave a sigh of relief. He thought he was going to die.

Annie immediately threw the ice blades that had gathered around her toward Conrad.

Conrad let go of the rope of light that had entangled Annie's arm.

Then he stretched his hand forward. A silver Magic shield.

The ice blades that hit the Magic shield immediately shattered.
