The preparations were complete and with a few tugs it looked like Gary was secure.
“I'm not so sure about this, Gary, you broke out of my parents' storage unit with ease. I'm worried you might be able to break out of this one as well.” Tom shared his concerns.
“It won't be like last time.” Gary stated confidently. “I'm not sure how to explain it, but I feel weaker now that the full moon has passed. I should still be able to use its power to transform me, but it shouldn't last too long.”
None of that was true. Gary was actually going to test out his newly acquired Full Transformation skill. There was one thing the high schooler had sworn to himself, and that was that he wouldn't tell Tom anything related to the Underdogs, which included the system. Who knew if this system was created by them as well. In the worst case scenario, they might kill anyone who knew even the tiniest bit about it.
Gary's plan was to use his Charging Heart and Claw Drain skills to lower his Energy down to around 35. Using Full Transformation cost him 20 Energy and since it took 10 Energy for every additional minute in that transformed stage, the teenager was sure his transformation should automatically be cancelled after thirty seconds once his Energy value reached 10, thus reverting him back to his original form.
'These chains don't need to hold me for long, they just need to buy me thirty seconds.' Gary thought.
Tom then placed the bags of food, which were filled with raw meat, a small distance away from where Gary was. This would be used for after the transformation. The distance set up was based on these thirty seconds. If he was to break out, it was possible he would reach the food, giving him more Energy and lengthening the transformed state, which was why they needed to be set a certain distance away. So he wouldn't reach them in time.
“Are you completely sure about this, Gary?!” Tom shouted. “What if you can't control it? You said last time that you didn't know what was happening! That could easily happen again, right?”
Gary looked at Tom, he looked strange tied up, but his eyes were sincere.
'Screw me, I just hope Tom comes back soon. If someone happens to pass by and see me in the woods chained up like this, they'll think I'm some kind of super pervert!' Gary would have loved to facepalm himself, yet he was unable to reach.
Nevertheless, this was definitely a step in the right direction!
'Now…it's time for me to hunt you, Billy!'.
