Chapter 11 - Chapter 11- Lady in white

"Weird". Michael said when the alpha wolf did nothing and just watch as it's members get wounded by Michael.

"This wolf is definitely up to something". Michael said and continued to watch its movements from the side of his eye to see if it would try to do anything but even after five minutes had past and he killed another wolf, the alpha wolf did nothing.

But he did notice something strange that happened every once in a while. Whenever the moonlight shone at just the right moment on a wolf, it's speed and power would drastically increase.

But it only happened once in a while if not he wouldn't have been able to hold his own. And it only happened to one wolf at a time.

When there were only three wolves remaining, the alpha wolf suddenly let out a howl and joined the other wolves in attacking Michael.

The fur of the wolf changed when it started to attack and the alpha wolf was now gleaning with a silver light.

The alpha wolf was much faster than the others and Michael had a hard time following up with its speed. Whenever it struck, Michael would be flung away like a broken doll but the mutant armor always managed to tank its attack.

He killed another wolf and heard the sweet voice of the system congratulating him.

{Primitive creature Night howling wolf killed. Beast soul gained. No beast shard gained.}

'Another beast soul?' He was surprised and after a little hesitation decided to summon it. It was another dagger and they looked exactly the same.

'Cool. With this dagger I can now kill a lot faster'. He multi stabbed a wolf and it died before it could touch the ground.

{Primitive creature Night howling...} He heard the system say and was estatic. He turned his attention now to the alpha wolf who was looking at Michael with great hatred. It wanted to rip the human into pieces a little more than chopped beef but the armor was making all its attack futile.

And Michael always managed to avoid its attack to his head. It was very frustrating and not only that, but Michael had reduced its pack members to only three now. The alpha wolf included and the other wolves wanted to run away now.

They no longer had faith in their leader anymore and were thinking about running away. They only stayed because the wolf king was fighting with them also but even with that they were still hesitating.

"You guys are diced meat so I suggest you run away while you still can". Michael said with a carefree attitude.

He had the armor to protect him from the wolf king and the other wolf members couldn't do anything to touch him now that he had two daggers. He could retaliate with any given attack and thought it was kind of boring since he was getting the advantage.

The wolf king would have no reason to stay and fight him once the other wolves were killed so he considered this fight already won.

He just told the wolves because he wanted the fight to end quickly. 

The wolf king was furious but the other wolves seemed to have no reaction to Michael. Like they did not even know he said something.

'Oh i see, only the wolf king could understand him when he spoke. The other wolves were not that intelligent so to them he was just blabbing in his own native tongue.

'Won't make much of a difference anyway'. He shrugged and continued to do battle with the wolves who had lost their morale now.

They no longer put their power into the attack and were acting lame. But Michael took this opportunity to kill the wolf while it was distracted and while they were still in shock, he killed the other one.

Leaving only him and the wolf king to fight. The wolf king was mad with anger. It wanted to tear Michael to pieces but all its attacks couldn't get past his armor and it was very frustrating.

It howled with madness gleaming in its eye and rushed at him with even more speed. Michael was still wondering how the wolf kept getting faster and faster and he could hardly do anything.

If not for the mutated armor he was wearing right now, god knows how many times he would have died by now. The wolf was too fast for him to keep up.

"Damn you. Stop relying on speed and fight me like a man". Michael shouted at the wolf but it ignored and kept dishing attacks like mad.

There were plenty white marks on the armor right now and despite the armor being white itself, there was still white marks.

Michael's face paled. If he could not find a way to kill the wolf or at least escape. It was only a matter of time until the wolf began to attack his head and when it did...

'Bang'. The sound of metal hitting metal was heard again but Michael wasn't using his dagger to make such noise, it was the sound whenever the wolf struck his armor.

They kept on fighting like this for two more hours and now Michael was very tired. In fact he could hardly maintain his vision.

The bony spiked armor was now full of white marks all over but it had not been pierced through once.

The fog was now changing to the color black and very soon the lady in white dress would float over and would see them fighting.

The wolf however was also tired and its eyes were bloodshot and it was practically foaming from its mouth now due to anger.

It would soon be day and when the moon light was gone, it would lose it's boost in speed which it normally got. But it still continued to attack Michael with overwhelming ferosity. It felt that Michael was already on his last legs and it could kill him soon.

The fog completely turned black and Michael saw the lady in white dress floating back to the broken temple again with her sword dyed in red.

She was two thousand meters away from them yet she couldn't see them and still continued to float like she normally did.

Michael knew once she got close enough, she would be able to see them and once she does. It is finished. He had no hope of fighting against her even when he was fully awake and alert but not now.

The wolf seemed to ignore the lady in dress and still continued to battle Michael. It just wanted to kill Michael and be done with it.

When the lady in white dress got to one thousand meters, she saw them and held her sword In a weird pose before coming towards them.

Michael just turned his head to look at the wolf for one second before turning his gaze to the lady but when he did, he nearly ran mad.

The lady had covered a thousand meters in just the split second he turned his face away and was bringing her sword down towards him. It was too fast and he could hardly react to her movements.

He froze and watched as the blade slowly came down at him and saw his reflection in the side of the blade.

'So is this how I'll die? But I haven't even got the chance to live my life and yet I will die so soon. Is this how it is meant to be? Is this my end?'
