Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 1280 The Illusionary Wind Mutant

"Yes, I'm Edie, but I'm also Claire. To make this simpler for you, technically, Claire is my real body. I bet

you only recognized me upon seeing my beast form and the Gale Fire, didn't you?"

Claire clarified.

"I knew it. So, that means that you two are the same person. Then that means... you are my old friend.

But you wouldn't admit that you are Edie if I didn't ask you, right? Am I really your friend? How can you

keep me in the dark all this time?"

Ricky said mockingly.

But of course, he was more curious about Edie's changes at that moment.

"Come on. You really got mad with that?" Claire responded.

"No, of course, I wasn't really mad about that. But there is something I want to know for sure. Are you a

woman or a man? Most of all, how did you trick my Golden Spirit Eyes?" Ricky asked inquisitively.

"Whatever you want me to be. Do you want me to be a man or a woman?" Claire asked with a slight

giggle. At that moment, her voice contained a hint of expectation as she was eager to know Ricky's

reply.

"Ha-ha! But of course, I would prefer it if you keep your girl identity. I always like women more than I

like male friends," Ricky replied teasingly

"You are such a playboy!" Claire commented playfully.

Upon hearing this, Ricky could not help but burst into loud laughter.

At that moment, he felt immense happiness that he was able to meet his old friend again.

Soon after, Claire began to divulge every single thing to him. She filled him in on the details of why she

turned into a woman.

She was previously known as Edie and her father established the Wind-Mountain Alliance. On the

other hand, her mother was a daughter of a Dominant Top Elder of the Mu Clan. Therefore, growing up,

she enjoyed living a good and respected life in both the Wind-Mountain Alliance and the Mu Clan.

However, she was born a hundred years ago.

The Magic Ice had formed tens of millions of years ago, and this was where Claire had been sealed for

about a hundred years.

During the time when Claire was born, a Polar Fish was also brought to life inside her body, giving its

powers to her.

Meanwhile, Ricky and the Dragon Intent Grass were both shocked upon hearing her brief life story.

"Wow, you even have the Polar Fish inside you!" the duo exclaimed in unison.

Being a warrior for many years, Ricky had already read tons of books. That was why he was familiar

with the Polar Fish. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Now that he learned about the presence of this fish inside Claire's body, Ricky had finally understood

why her gender had changed.

Generally speaking, the Polar Fish was known as a rare creature that was considered to be more

precious than the Mandragora flower. Two Mandragora flowers could come into existence in an era—

the Divine Mandragora and the Evil Mandragora.

However, only one Polar Fish could be born in an era.

Despite being very precious and of great value, the Polar Fish had no psychic intelligence and had no

ability to fight the enemy.

On the plus side, it could help creatures be reincarnated successfully.

It was said that before a creature died, all of his memories would be poured into the Polar Fish, which

would soon enter the void. Then, after some time, the dead creature would be reincarnated.

In other words, the creature would be able to start a new life.

But there was a catch: after being reborn, the creature would absorb the Polar Fish's feminine and

masculine powers. Since it was impossible for a newborn to hold such strong powers, Claire had been

sealed in the Magic Ice formed tens of billions of years. This happened so that the Magic Ice could

suppress and absorb the feminine and masculine powers.

A hundred years had passed, and all the masculine and feminine powers had been absorbed. As a

result, Claire had been freed from the Magic Ice's isolation.

However, due to the Polar Fish's complexity, she still faced another problem. The creatures that

possessed the Polar Fish inside of them would exist in the world in their opposite gender for dozens of

years. For example, if she was born as a girl, she would have to live as a boy for years since she was

born.

With that being said, Claire had lived as a man for thirty years.

Since she was born as a female, she had appeared and lived her life as a man during her first thirty

years of being reincarnated.

Meanwhile, Ricky burst out another loud laugh after hearing how Claire came to life.

"Okay, I get it now. The Polar Fish is to blame for what happened to you. So that's why you were able

to fool my Golden Spirit Eyes! Ha-ha! That would explain why you acted effeminately even though you

were a man. What can I say? On the bright side, consider yourself lucky! I mean, now you know how it

feels like to be a man and a woman,"

Ricky remarked.

"Oh, come on. Are you really making fun of me?" Claire said with a hint of irritation in her voice.

"Ha-ha! Yeah, it's really daring of me to tease you given our circumstance," Ricky responded with a

chuckle. "Anyway, let's work together to fight Michael. We need each other for this. After all, he's one

hell of a foe."

However, Ricky planned not to hit his enemy directly.

Instead, he planned to surprise Michael so that they would not be so predictable to the enemy.

"Your beast form is the Wind Benu, and you even possess the sacred fire," Michael said monotonously

as he glared at Claire. Obviously, he was interested in the Gale Fire.

After all, no warrior would be able to resist the temptation of the peculiar fire.

"Illusionary Wind Mutant!" Claire yelled. Not long after, she burst out her mutant power. Her illusion

power and wind power increased and soon transformed into her mutant power. In an instant, her

mutant became active.

At the same time, Claire told Ricky, "After the Polar Fish's power wore off in my body, my blood power

and mutant power were awakened."

"So that means that your mutant is the Illusionary Wind Mutant," Ricky said as he carefully scrutinized

Claire.

"Ricky, I will go all out to distract Michael. Find an opportunity to attack him with all you have," Claire

instructed.

"Hey, don't forget to be careful," Ricky reminded.

"Don't worry about it. He is too proud that he won't fight me with all that he has got. I'm sure that he

won't injure me so much as long as he doesn't pull all of his strength on me," Claire reassured him.

After she finished her words,

Claire had activated her Illusionary Wind Mutant to its extreme.

Afterwards, the wind power appeared on Claire's right, while the illusion power appeared on her left.

Then, the two powers intertwined and morphed into a compass that moved its way in front of her.

"Polar Claw Strike!" Claire shouted.

Soon after, the wind and illusion powers burst out from the compass and formed a sharp claw that

contained both the feminine and masculine powers.

Although most of the Polar Fish's feminine and masculine powers inside Claire's body had been

absorbed by the Magic Ice, there was a little bit left of it.

Claire wanted to attract Michael's attention, so she went all out with her powers. To her, this was the

only way that she and Ricky could terminate Michael.

On the other hand, Michael saw what was coming for him. His face might have turned a little serious,

but he still thought that it would not hurt him too much.

Stretching out his right hand, black water appeared in front of him and merged it with his right arm.

Once his arm fully integrated with the black water, the latter started to turn dark yellow, releasing an

increased cold power.

Immediately after, Michael clapped his hands.

"Black water, form the ice pillar, now!" he shouted.

The next moment, the black water froze and turned completely dark yellow, forming an ice pillar

together with Michael's arm.

Dashing forward at full speed, Michael attacked Claire's claw with the ice pillar that he had just formed.

Boom! The two forces collided, sending shock waves that spread far away in the air around them.

After a while, the dark yellow ice power froze the air waves, which included Claire's powers.

Michael ran and the ice pillar was going to hit Claire very soon.

At that moment, Ricky was supposed to launch an attack on Michael when the latter hit Claire with the

ice pillar. After all, it was almost impossible for Michael to unleash another Omnipotent Skill in a short

time.

But if that were to happen, then, Claire would get hurt.

However, Ricky would do everything in his power not to cause any harm to his friend, especially that

she was doing this to give him the advantage of attack their enemy.

Therefore, Ricky did not waste any time and took action immediately.
