n*Crack

nWith mana going through Veren's blade, he drew Veren out of this sheath and swung behind him towards the direction of the small sound.

n*Fsheeen!

nA dark green wind shoots out of the long blade, leaving a trail behind his path.

nWith less than two seconds the blade shortly reached his destination, stopping only on one of the big trees present in the forest.

n

"...

"

nDanzel stared intensely at the big cut he made in the tree, but what won this attention, even more, was the small window that showed up.

nYou received 5000 XP

nAt the same time he finished reading the floating window, something strange happend.

nIn the direction where he shot his Gale Mana Blade, a transparent figure tall enough to reach his tight started to slowly appear.

nBut as the figure was becoming clearer to see, revealing to be a gray wolf of some sort, it suddenly splashed blood in the middle of his body before falling to the ground in two half pieces.

n

"A wolf that knows how to turn invisible?

" As Danzel was about to take a step forward, he strengthened his grip, looking around warningly.

n

"It´s still not gone...

" Saying that the feeling of enmity grew suddenly stronger from all his sides.

nAnd before he knew, around 15 meters aways of him, other gray wolves with third red-eye in the middle of their heads started to appear out of thin air on all of his sides, surrounding him with growls and eyes full of killing intent.

n*Growl!

n

"Ah, crap...

" Danzel cursed under his helmet as he counted the number of wolves they were.

n`A total of 15 wolfs to be seen...who knows how many others are hiding like that.´

nAs he was observing the growling third-eyed wolfs, every single third eye of those wolves twitched around all directions for a second before sharply staring at Danzel as if they were to bounce at him at any moment.

nBefore he could make any sense of what that twitch was, all the wolves started to move simultaneously, with the 10 of them rushing directly at him from all sides and the other 5 lurking slowly coming around him, ready to replace in case one of them were to fall.

n

"The heck!?

" He cursed out loud as he started casting with mana in his hands.

nThough he was surprised by the simultaneous rush of the third-eyed woods, it wasn't enough to make him lose his cool.

n

"Earth Wall!

" Injecting the mana inside the earth, the earth started to rise and form a tall wall, making the wolves who were about to jump at him crush directly at the wall face first, making them whelp out of pain.

n

"Woof!

"

n

"You mere dog!

" Swinging the Veren at the leaping third-eyed wolf, the wolf's mouth was cut with only a thread of flesh keeping his mouth together.

nIf it weren´t for the fine body control that the wolf had, it wouldn´t have his head anymore.

n

"Growl!

"

nIgnoring the wolf on the ground, he turned around and swung at the other charging third-eyed wolf directly at his skull.

n

"Wooagh...!

" With Veren going through his head, the wolf only managed to yelp a final cry before collapsing to the ground

nYou received 5000 XP

n`It didn´t try to dodge...´ Danzel starred at the now-dead third-eyed wolf with confusion. As he tried to make sense of the wolf's suicidal actions he was shortly interrupted by another howl on his side.

n

"It will be too late...

" As he already swung his sword at that suicidal wolf. Even though he was vastly superior in both speed and strength compared to the wolves, there were still limits.

n

"...

"

nBut that didn´t mean that he was defenseless.

nAs the third-eyed wolf jumped ready to bite at Danzel's throat, a small light appeared in Danzel's other hand which quickly expand until turning into a spear.

nThe wolf opened all his three eyes wide open, staring at the sudden appearance of the spear in shock.

n

"Waagh!

" With the wolf still being mid-air, dodging was impossible.

nThe spear pierced without any effort through the wolf's flesh until it penetrated through his body.

nYou received 5000 XP

nLetting the spear inside of the wolf's body, he quickly focused ahead of him at the two other charging third-eyed wolves.

nFollowing suit, he charged at the two wolves with even greater speed, which took them in surprise.

nWith him being a mass of metal, he resembled a dark chariot ready to crush these enemies.

nThe wolves showed a hind of panic in both of their third eyes, but instead of moving out of Danzels way they instead accelerated.

nThough the first wolf who reached him tried to bite Danzel's leg, it got run downed before it even manage to bite him correctly.

nWith the wolf rolling to the side, the other got his neck pierced with the runed sword that glowed with crimson light.

nYou received 5000 XP

n

"You aren´t going away!

" Staring at the limping wolf before, he got another spear that he was supposed to give the army and threw it at the wolf like a javelin as if he was the original owner of it.

nThough he had not a shred of experience with throwing weapons, the skill Intermendiate Weapon Mastery worked as intended in filling the basics of techniques into his mind.

nAnd as expected, although it was a hit, it didn´t hit at the aimed spot.

nDanzel's original target was the wolf head, but his inexperience only managed to earn him a spot on the wolf´s back.

nWhich with the strength that the spear was thrown at the wolf was well enough to finish the job.

n

"Woogf...

"

nYou received 5000 XP

n

"Now-

" Before Danzel could turn around to finish the wolf with the cut mouth, a sudden feeling of intense danger came behind him.

nAs he couldn´t react fast enough, a wolf jumped at his back, bearing his teeth at his neck.

n*Thegck!

nAs the third-eyed wolf bit his neck near his shoulder, the tough armor with runes in it managed to block the fangs of the wolf, leaving only some scratch marks and a pained cry of the wolf.

n

"You!

" Furious, he grabbed the wolf's opened mouth with one of his hands and threw him at the other wolfs who started to come from the sides of the walls.

n

"Growl!

"

nStanding with this back on the earth wall that he created, he looked at the eight wolves who in turn were slowly closing their distance with no good intent.

n

"Out of all the places I decided to stop, it had to be a damn wolf-invested territory...

" Danzel cursed under his helmet.

nIf he could go into the past, he would find himself and kick his own a*s from being so careless and a dumbass.

nAs he was staring at the wolves closing the distance, he started to rack his mind to find a solution.

nBut in every scenario he imaged himself to be, he found himself bounced by all the eight wolves.

nThough the one bite of that wolf didn´t manage to bite through his armor, that was only because the wolf had lost all his momentum by climbing to Danzel's tall figure, and his own awkward positioning was not best to bite.

nIn reality, he wasn´t confident that his armor could hold against eight of those wolves.

nAnd even if it did, his armor would turn into some scrap metal.

n

"Growl!

"

n`With wolves in front of me and a wall behind me, I can only force my way thoug-´ As Danzel was preparing himself to pure force it.

nHe was suddenly struck with an idea.

n

"Hehe, Right! The wall!

" The death mana in his body flared outside his body and a massive bloodlust filled the nearby area.

nThe wolves who noticed that chance flinched for a second and a hint of fear was inside their eyes. But they still continue closing the distance slowly.

nDanzel who was surrounded with death mana and a strengthened body through the use of Sin of Wrath, surrounded himself with layers of mana through his new skill Armor Mana Plating and started casting his spell Earth Wall

nWith Armor Mana Plating only requiring to place mana around your body, as long as you knew the technique it could be activated in no longer than one second.

nAlthough the spell Earth Wall wasn't that hard to cast and generally took around two seconds to activate, the spell itself was really mana demanding.

nMaybe that was only because it was still on level 1.

nCurrently, though, I didn´t care about the mana cost.

nThe Injected mana in the ground flowed behind the wolves and started raising an earth wall that was growing taller by the second.

nOf course, that action surprised the wolves.

n

"Woof!?

" With the wall behind them, the eight wolves third eye started to twitch and look in all directions.

nAnd as soon as their third eye stopped moving, a cold voice sounded before them.

n

"You damn dogs, in honor of the two of your suicidal friends let me...

"

nTurning around, Danzel threw a punch at the wall behind him with such strength that made the wall grumble...

nTowards the directions of Danzel and the third-eyed wolves.

nThe wolves who realized what was going on subconsciously turned around to run away, only to meet a tall earth wall blocking their way.

nBringing the dark crystal shield out of his storage ring, he placed the shield on top of his head.

n

"Allow me to take you guys with me!

"

nAs soon the wolves started to run to the sides, pieces of the wall started to fall upon them, completely burying their whole group and Danzel.

n
