Starting With A Trash Hand

I pulled out the next card to inspect.

[UNLEASH YOUR INNER BEAST]

RANK - IRON

All of that in just one pill. Take one now.]

At first you thought it was a d*ck enhancing pill but then it turned into a gym advertisement half-way through. The descriptions were getting more crankier by the moment.

I took a good look at the card and decided to use it now.

"Use card [UNLEASH YOUR INNER BEAST]." The card vanished and was replaced by a pill. I popped the whole thing in my mouth and waited for the change.

A slight tingle was felt on the abdominal muscles. The sensation spreaded out to every part of the body, even to muscles I never knew existed. Yeah, and even to my junior.

The accumulated tingle from my entire body nearly made my brain numb.

The tingling increased and my muscles began to vibrate like a massage chair. At first it was shivering, then it gradually increased. Until it was so fast, it could even make a vibrator lose its job.

On the outside it only looked like I was only experiencing a chill.

Three long hours almost made my head blank. I was even afraid that my brain was replaced with muscles.

Grrr

I heard a grumble from my stomach. I was famished. It was like I had starved for years.

My palm touched my stomach and I felt an unfamiliar sensation. It was like I was touching a steel statue.

My hand moved downwards and I felt the details of my eigth pack abds. I flexed my arm and solid muscles popped out.

When in relax my body would look normal, as if I never had done work. When I flexed, steel-like muscles would show themselves. It would look like I did bodybuilding my entire life.

I was quite pleased. Overall, my body didn't change much on the outside but inside, I packed the power of a peak bronze nine. I could penetrate a thick ancient bronze bell in one punch.

Also my height didn't change. I didn't want to grow taller than I already am. For me, it was ideal to have average height. Neither tall, nor short.

My gaze turned to my side. Gles was still there, waiting all the while.
