Chapter 95: Amazing Rewards?! Where?!
In the middle of the coliseum, a chest had just appeared. It looked as if it was made of roots and emoted a soft silvery light.
“Woo!” (Eager!)
Moon Moon instantly rushed at it, circling it happily before approaching its paw closer.
“Wait! You need to be careful. Who knows if there if it isn’t booby-trapped! Hell, some chests are even disguised mimics.” Jack shouted.
“Woo?!” (Shocked!)
The little wolf suddenly stopped dead in its track. It was now warily circling the chest as if it were an incredible enemy. At the first twitch, it was ready to pounce!
“That’s a good habit to have. You always have to be careful with stuff like that. Luckily this one ought to be fine. After all, what kind of heartless game would trap the first chest, am I right?” Jack chuckled softly.
He reached toward it, opening it violently…..with nothing remarkable happening. Jack couldn’t help but frown as he saw this. This was unacceptable!
“Hey, system. You better add a small tune and some special effects, or else it’s too boring.” He criticized out loud, closing the lid and waiting a few seconds. Then he reopened it.
— Ta-da-da! —
— Howl! —
— Silver Glow! —
“Now we’re talking!” Jack nodded with satisfaction. He required a cool finish if he was ever to farm this dungeon!
The two then excitedly dug out the content of the chest. They had successfully obtained….some random loot? That was it?! Potions, a small wolf-claw-like level 5 weapon, and a random chest piece too.
“Oy, what kind of BS is this?!” He grumbled, even if he understood why.
This loot was all because he had failed his first run of the Wolf Den. With the first run bonus, he would have gotten his desired item 100%. Now he would have to run it again for the final boss loot.
“Woo.” (Comforting)
The little wolf was even patting his back as it showed concern. How cute!
But was Jack afraid of a little bit of grind? Hell no! Without hesitating, he exited the dungeon, revealed the dungeon to all for bonus loot, and went in again. That’s when began the wolf and human domination.
The poor Wolf Den wasn’t built to withstand a wild Jack’O. It was made to prove a challenge for five well-geared level 6 players, not him! As he repeated the same steps as earlier, he was even faster and even more confident.
That’s how began the tragedy of Romulus the Mighty and Remus the Forgotten. He would switch things up as he killed each alternatively every run.
Hell, their fate was even worse than the Roman heroes they had been named after. In Infinite, there wasn’t one that would survive to accomplish great things. The two were nothing more than utter fodder to the whims of a maverick god.
To them, Jack and the wolf weren’t humans but devils. What kind of bastards would steal milk straight from the tits of an unfortunate mother? These **ing two!
The two could only howl in anguish as they perished, regretting their helplessness.
Their killer’s reaction didn’t help either:
“Get wrecked, you idiot wolf! You came swaggering in thinking you were a big shot, right? Well, **ing look at you now! You’re getting destroyed by a pup!”
The human ridiculed the enemy while the pet shook its butt, tauntingly at the creature a dozen times its size.
Then they were opening chest after chest.
Random loot
Random loot
Random loot
Random loot
Random loot
Jack could only stare at the damn chest that never contained the thing that he was looking for. He wanted the pauldrons! That’s all he was missing to complete his armor set. Why the heck was it so goddamn elusive!
“Do you think I’ll give up so easily?! You do not know Jack’ Mother**ing O if that’s what you think, system!” He shouted at the Heavens.
“Woo!” (Cursing the silly gods!)
Perhaps Jack wasn’t the best influence for a young wolf— not that it mattered. Even if it was cursing like a sailor, the people would simply hear “Woo” anyway. Only Jack would understand the true meaning….or tamers
/druids if he ever met any.
That’s how their quest continued:
Random loot
Random loot
Random loot
At some point, Jack had to resign himself to the sad truth. It seemed like the way he was cheesing the boss was messing up with the loot. At that point, the logical course of action was obviously to give up, right?
Well, he ran it a few more times anyway…
Random loot
Random loot
Random loot
Random loot
All until he finally leveled up after 2 hours of intense grind.
— Ding! —
Reached level 7!
Ah, if only leveling up could always be so damn easy! Heck, if he could keep this up, he’d be done with a few years of gaming in a month, haha. How wonderful would that be?
In any case, reaching level 7 was extremely significant!
1. Would he awaken superpowers?
2. Would his luck increase a thousandfold?
3. Would he suddenly disappear like the Jack on that one old phone?
None of the above!
But, this single level up made him lose all motivation toward farming the Wold Den. He was akin to a kid with a new bright shiny toy: uninterested in the old one.
It was now time for him to head to a new land of opportunities. One that would be extremely perilous but incredibly rewarding too— hopefully!
As for his stat points? He actually didn’t spend them this time around. Perhaps the next step would allow him to use magic…or at least he **ing hoped.
Jack gave one look at Moon Moon before grandly declaring while sighing:
“Now that we have conquered this land, it is time for another chapter of our life. Are you ready to face an enemy even harsher than wolves?”
“Woo?!” (What?!)
Moon Moon lost its bearing for a second. What was stronger than a wolf? It knew of two things: dragons and gods. No matter which it was, it would be ready!
“Woo!” (Ready for a heroic battle!)
That’s when Jack finally dropped the bomb.
“We will be fighting…chickens!”
Wait…what?! The little wolf felt so puzzled…

Creator’s Thought
For the young pup, the world was relatively simple. The only, creatures it knew of were: Chicken < Fox < Wolf < Gods (?) < Dragons The chickens suddenly being stronger than wolves was mind-boggling. It destroyed Moon Moon’s entire conception of the world.
