"So we're all set right, everyone in their respective roles and good to go to get operation save our world into full effect" I asked everyone in the party.
"Anyone need to go to the bathroom/" I asked without giving anyone a response. Somehow Jacques still responded.
"Yep, right here, I need to go the bathroom. I've been trying to hold it all this time but I don't think I can" Jacques Said Great we've got ourselves a jokester in the party. Just our luck.
I rolled my eyes. Seriously Jacques had been like this ever since we've met him always the one to make lght out of dire situations and we loved him for it.
"I think taking a moment to go to the bathroom before we embark on our big monster hunt would be a good idea." Monroe said sarcastically, "Afterall, you can't slay spider demons with a full bladder, now can you?" Monroe added.
I gave him a glare that said Don't you fucking dare.
"No one, well that's great! I suppose it's time that we go into battle." I Said, "And for those that do want to you'll have to answer to the angry berserker version of me, and I can't imagine that he would be as pleasant or as nice a guy as I'm being right now." I said.
"Well, honestly you should probably put on your armor then, what are you waiting for? Are you afraid you'll lose control as a berserker and attack one of us?" Said Jacques clearly amusing himself.
"If that's the case then I'll make sure that you're the first person that I attack." I told Jacques to which he shrugged.
"By the way what does it say about your items we're curious about what additional buffs you're armor and weapon gives you.

"And without further ado! Berserker Transformation Activate" I shouted out loud while tapping away at my screen.
The transforming light enveloped me as well and I swear I must have grown two feet and became extremely built with rippling muscle because while other people were being blinded by the light. I could see eveything as it happened. My short to medium length hair grew out to a long mane that reached my back and I was covered in a tight leather and steel armor. I must have grown to eight feet and I looked like a Mr. Universe constestant who was sure to give the entire competition a run for it's money. When the light faded I looked every bi the berserker that my stat sheet said I would become.
"Holy Shit Man! You still in there/ You know we were only joking and teasing around with you. Please don't bash our skulls in!" Said Jacques aplogetically
"Psst... I bet that he's still the same old knuckle head we all know and love." Said Monroe.
"Big bro, are you still in there, you look like a hero right out of a late eighties fantasy tv show or comic book. You look rad and exactly as heroic as I pictured you." Said Alex.
"What is it that you request of me mortals! Speak now or forever hold your peace." I said in a deep booming voice that made even Alex shake a little bit. Then after waiting for a second.
If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
"Pffffttt..... haha... oh man... I can't believe you guys almost bought that... you should have seen the look on your faces...." I almost keeled over laughing.
"Now that's the same old knucklehead that we all know and love." Said Jacques At least you didn't become more of a knucklehead" he added
"Did you hear the whole "fear me mortals" thing? Oh man are you sure this whole berserker thing hasn't gone to your head?" said Monroe.
"I don't know what with these guns and all I feel and look good." I said giving everyone a good look at the gun show.
"So everyone is now geared up and ready to go?" Said Melanie.
"Hey by the way said Alex... did you notice the whole transformation skill each of us has?" said Alex.
"I wonder what's that all about, I mean are we going to turn into something even more cool?" he asked.
"Well, since one of the gods that chose us all was Fenrir, I bet that we're all going to be able to turn into wolves or werewolves whenever that skill activates?" I said excitedly.
"You can go ahead and be a werewolf" Michelle said. "I don't think I look good in fur and I'm happy just being a witch. Afterall, I haven't really heard of female werewolves and I'm not going to be happy if I turn into a male one."
"Yeah, same with her, the whole werewolf thing totally goes against my whole healer persona that I have, plus I don't want to think about myself getting all hairy." Melanie Said. "It's just kinda gross and I totally don't think I would look good as a wolf."
"Well, I think you two would look really sexy as female werewolves whether as an anthro or a wolf girl. I think they would suit your personalities too as the alpha females that you are." I told them.
"I personally think being a werewolf would go with my character class." Said Jacques "I often used to play werewolves because of their high physical stats in most of the VRMMOs I play. The fact that they usually have an absurdly high attack and healing factor also doesn't really hurt in the long run."
"I don't know if there's a thing as werewolf paladins but I think I would certainly look cool as someone like Melion or Marrok from King Arthur's knights of the round table or even someone like Bisclaveret would be good for me." Monroe chipped in his two cents.
"I personally think that being a werewolf mage would be hella cool." Said Alex. "Hell yeah, I want to howl and wrestle with you guys if we all have the potential to be werewolves. It's certainly strange that it's a locked skill though. I wonder why that is."
"Well... I certainly don't know if you'll all be werewolves, but transformation is usually a class or race change skill. As for werewolves there are varying packs of werewolves all vying for supremacy, the Long shen, the inugami, the demon hounds and the fenris wolves just to name a few." Said Confidence.
"These are werewolves from all around the world" Confidence clarified. "And they certainly do exist in all of the worlds that I have ever been a part of. But since you'll be going into the game world of "Wolves of Asgard" after we get you to the summoning circle you'll mostly be dealing with the Fenris wolves." Said Confidence
"These are ruled over by the Golden Emperors and Silver sages. But there are also the blood demon wolves, the earth guard, the shadow lords, and the white night. Golden emperors are golden, silver sages are silver, earthen guard are brown, shadow lords are black, and white night are white furred. The fur color of a werewolf refers to which faction within the fenris wolves a given werewolf is." Confidence continued.
"Still there's no telling whether it's a class change or race change ability but whatever change that transformation skill may bring upon you. It's one use and it's permanent. Meaning what gets changed or transformed won't be changing back any time soon or ever if not done so within a given amount of time." Said Confidence eyeing the skill. Clearly she did not like the looks of it.
"I wonder if Fenrir snuck that in there, I wonder if it has anything to do with these guys's destiny." Confidence said muttering to herself unaware that we could all hear her.
"So definite werewolf change skill right?" Said Jacques.
"Well honestly, we're not sure but being a werewolf could certainly give us a few advantages that is if after turning into a werewolf you'll still be able to transform back into human form" Monroe said.
"Well, to be honest you'll be able to shift back to being a human and keep some of the status upgrades that come from being a werewolf even after you shift back to human form however, if you are a werewolf your displayed race will be werewolf and even as a human your subspecies will be displayed as werewolf so you won't be able to hide your werewolf nature." Said confidence. "I'm going to tell you right now even in "Wolves of Asgard" where werewolves are seen as heroes there are those with a lot of hate for werewolves.
"Well, then we best hope that the skill doesn't turn us into werewolves. Isn't that right everyone."
"As much as I'd like to see myself all snarly and growly. I don't think I could deal with people hating the fact that I exist in anything outside of an RPG" Jacques said, I didn't think Jacques could take something like that either and the very concept seemed to bother him.
"Still if we all do turn into werewolves. At least we have each other" Said Alex "We're all one big wolf pack already and nothing is going to change that." With that we all started to feel better about the whole situation and finally we were ready to step out into the real world and to face those spider sisters.
Frankly, those spider sisters, they didn't stand a chance.
