Chapter 33

nThere were plenty of mountains behind Baldwin county.
nAll year round, their peaks would remain white with snow.
nHence, they were called the Snowy Mountain Range.
nAt its summit was a lone soul.
nHis facial features were immature, and his body was out of shape, but he gave off the feeling of a true expert.
nHe was dressed in all black.
nHe stretched out his hand, opening his palm.
nImmediately, a black hole appeared above it and spewed out a black glove.
nIf anyone had seen that, they would have been surprised.
nWithout hesitation, the teenager put his sheathed sword aside and wore the glove.
nImmediately, his Strength Stat rose above 50 points, crossing the limits of a Body tempering trainee, and his Agility Stat also increased by 2 points.
nRoy had started to keep all his items, including the inheritance of his mother, in his Subspace, freeing himself from the worry of someone stealing his things.
nEven if his evil stepmother and her son found out about the secret safe in his room, they would get nothing.
nA silver streak shot up the mountain. It was Roy moving at high speed.
nHe had come to the Snow Mountains once again because he was suspicious about how the pack he had slain had raised a Snow Wolf Leader in the harsh conditions of the snowy mountains.
nThere were many herbs in this place, but little to no Magic Herbs.
nThat was why Weapon Monsters would never come here to hunt. Hunting in a place with sparse Magic Herbs was a waste of their time.
nIt was very, very hard for a pack to have a Snow Wolf Leader that young without using hundreds of magic herbs.
nA ridiculous amount of resources was needed for the birth of a Snow Wolf Leader.
nBut this ridiculous amount couldn’t be found in this place.
nSo how did they raise a snow wolf into a Snow Wolf Leader?
n“Maybe I will find an answer to my question in their den.” Roy thought, entering the depths.
nHe moved about in search of the den of the wolves.z
nMere minutes later, Roy found a pair of snow wolves. To be more exact, they had come here looking for him.
n“Awooo!!”
n“Awooo!!”
nThe moment they set their eyes on him, they howled really loudly. The birds flew away as a bad premonition raised in Roy’s heart.
n“They are up to something, but whatever they’re planning will only backfire on them.” Roy thought as he took out Reflection from its sheath and rushed towards the two snow wolves.
nThey were both at the eighth level. Killing them would net him 160 EXP. He wasn’t going to miss out on this.
nHis Strength was already higher than a Level 10 Boss Monster, but when he equipped his sword, it increased by five more points, putting his strength close to that of a Weapon Master.
nHe was too ridiculously powerful.
nLevel 10 Monsters didn’t stand a chance against him.
nThe two snow wolves scampered away, running away from the devil. They used the trees as their cover to hide from Roy’s line of sight while widening the distance between them.
n‘They have become craftier than last time.’ Roy thought as, with a gentle leap, he launched into the air.
nLooking down, he saw the two smart asses zigzagging across the trees.
nHis lips curled into a smile, a murderous one, as like a psychopath, he muttered, “Caught you….”
nHe did a nose dive, landing three steps above them. All that was seen by the Snow wolves then was a flash of white light. Roy stood in their attacking range. But they didn’t move a single muscle as they didn’t have the strength or breath to do so. Roy unsheathed his sword. In that very instant, the heads of two snow wolves detached from their body, dropping to the white ground which their blood dirties.
n『You killed two Snow Wolves. You get 1 Agility and 160 EXP!』
nA notification carrying pleasant news sounded in Roy’s ears, but his expression took a turn for the worst, for the notification hadn’t come alone but brought a great sense of danger.
nThere was a strong tingling feeling on the back of his head as if Death itself was running its hand through his hair, and continuously chills were creeping up his spine.
nYour sixth instinct has kicked in.
nA deadly danger is approaching you.
nFrom where? Roy looked around, working his senses to their utmost limit.
nSure enough, there was a huge fluctuation of mana 20 meters behind his back.
nHis senses weren’t fooling him.
nSomeone had cast a spell just now, and its target was him!
nHe turned around, and what he saw thinned his eyes to the size of needles.
nGlimmering rays of frostiness shot out from the sides of the tree, launching an assassination on him.
n“Mana Wall!” He uttered in a hurry. Immediately, a shield of mana manifested out of thin air, and he grabbed it in his left hand. Both the shield and the sheathed sword were swung out, smashing six Frost Spears into smithereens.
nTwo more volleys of frosty iciness tried to claim his life. Roy made a sprint to his left. Six of them stabbed in the spot he just left. He wasn’t able to get out of the trajectory of the other time. He confronted them head-on, smashing them away with his shield and sword.
nYou lost 0.3 HP!
nOne of them shot past him, cutting open a bloody gash on the side of his shoulder.
nIt didn’t hurt a lot, but Roy felt like a dozen bees had stung him in the same place.
n“Show yourself!”
nJust as he shouted those words, a downsized snow wolf followed by varying size snow wolves came into his vision. There were dozens of them, more than he had taken out days ago. Four of them were two levels below him. The rest were pretty much taken as insignificant ants by Roy.
nThe wolf at their helm had blue eyes, and there was the mark of a crescent moon on her head.
nAfter having a good look at her, Roy’s expression changed to that of surprise, and he said with trembling lips, “This has to be a Luna!”
nHis lips were trembling out of excitement and not fear.
nWhat were the chances of a young Lunar Wolf and a young Winter Wolf appearing in the same habitat barren of Magic Herbs? Zero!
nThat only meant they had unearthed a treasure that was helping them evolve super fast, and Roy wanted to take it for himself now!
n『 Lunar Wolf』
nLevel: 10
nHP: 15
/15
nMP: 85
/100
nAGT: 50
nSTR: 42
nSTA: 34
nRoy found out that while she wasn’t as strong as him, she was faster than him. He became confident about fighting her.
n“Awoo!”
nThis roar signaled the start of the fight.
nThe intelligence of the Lunar Wolf took Roy by surprise.
nUnlike the Winter Wolf, who had engaged him fiercely, she had stayed behind and pushed her underlings to the frontline to fight him.
nThe snow wolves surrounded him, circling him.
n“If you think you can overwhelm me with numbers, you’re wrong!” Roy scoffed.
nThe Luna gave no heed to his word and howled, commanding her minions to tear him apart.
n“Awooo!”
nInstantly, they pounced on him.
nRoy’s eyes turned cruel, and his fighting spirit rose to an unprecedented level.
nHis muscles swelled, his face turned red, and veins popped up on his head and neck as if an exorcist was trying to force a demon out of his body.
n“Die!”
nAn instant after he uttered that word, a wave of Aura invisible to the naked eye suddenly burst out in all directions, with him as the center.
nThe wolves that had pounced on him were thrown away brutally.
nSome crashed into their comrades, some died after smashing their heads on ice-cold stone, while some head-butted thick trees and slumped down to the snow. The icicles hanging on the trees fell down as they were rocked, stabbing the wolves down below.
nPitiful roars were heard.
n
