Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

Chapter 61 The Massacre - Part 3: Betrayal

Shin was quite delighted to see at least someone survive. However, he was now wondering a way to save the young pup.

He hadn't evolved yet, it was taking quite some time. Due to that, Shin was a bit worried.

He could use the skill on both of them, but the effect would decrease. Already the healing failed to reach the level of burns, it wasn't even necessary to think what would happen if the effect of heal would decrease or get split up.

Well, while he was thinking intensely, the flames kept rising. It was weird because the flames seemed never-ending.

Also, the flames never once touched or moved towards the forest. It stayed exactly within the boundaries.

Probably the boulders could have been the reason, but a few large boulders couldn't possibly stop the gigantic flames!

Even if tiny embers of the flames were to be carried via wind, the forest would end up catching fire, but that wasn't happening either. A weird phenomenon perhaps!

Shin thought about that too and was wondering if it was some sort of magic when suddenly a notification popped up.

'Ding'

[ All the flames have will be absorbed in 00:00:00:30 ( 30 seconds ) ]

"Huh?"

That was all he could say before his body started absorbing the flames.

He did push the wolf pup a bit because he was worried that it could get some burns, regardless, his body was heating up and the pup felt the heat too.

The pup walked a step or two towards Shin but then stopped when it saw Shin showing his paw as if he didn't want the pup to get closer.

The pup trusted Shin because it had been saved by him once. It trusted what he said and waited there without moving a muscle.

Of course, it was scared. If the entire world went silent, one could hear the pup's heart pounding like crazy!

All the flames that were present below the cliff and those that had reached almost the cliff started to move towards Shin. They all were merging and were entering his body.

'Damn, what's with this intense heat?'

His body was getting heated. He hadn't transformed into a flame wolf yet due to which he could clearly feel the excessive heat from the surrounding and since the flames were getting absorbed by his body. the heat that he felt seemed to get even more intense.

Did it hurt? Of course, it did, such a massive amount of energy entered his body causing pain like none.

However, he bore it all as if it was nothing. Shin had already leveled up many times which had caused his body and willpower to grow stronger so such a minute pain was nothing for him right now.

The pup kept staring at Shin intensely before it withdrew its eyes from him. It was because all the flames in the surrounding were absorbed by him and now his body was emitting a strong red-colored light.

'Ding'

[ The evolution trait Flame Wolf has changed to 'Flame Wolf Emperor' due to the immense energy absorption ]

[ Conducting the transformation... ]

Shin was now completely fine because all the energy had been used up for the change in trait. The Flame Wolf trait had literally changed to a Flame Wolf Emperor.

Well, a wolf has many evolutionary forms out of which there are special ranks denoted when one evolves. The ranks are quite normal.

The lowest of all was Normal Wolf. After that came Warrior Wolf.

The other ranks were - Knight Wolf, Lord Wolf, Highlord Wolf, General Wolf, Warlord Wolf, and Emperor Wolf.

To jump even one rank, would take quite a lot of effort. However, Shin's Flame Wolf just jumped from the lowest rank to the highest rank!

'Ding'

[ Failed ]

[ Flame Wolf Emperor transformation failed ]

[ Host's body is too weak to form a link to transform into a Flame Wolf Emperor ]

Shin didn't understand what was going on. He had no idea about the ranks either but on hearing the word 'Emperor', he did expect it to be the strongest form.

But now again he received a message saying that he couldn't transform because his current body was too weak to accept the link.

'Ding'

[ Evolve into a higher form for the transformation to proceed ]

And that was the last notification about transformation.

He was about to frown because of that since he was hoping to transform into a cool flame beast. Well, it was for his own good anyway.

Also, the flames in the surrounding had vanished. They had been absorbed by his body thanks to which now there was no need of having a flame body or using the Heal skill.

He had nothing to worry about now. The flames no longer existed near him and now he could carry the young wolf pup with him to safety.

Of course, he was thinking of everything that could happen in the future. More than that, he was worried about what the previous wolf had said to him before it died.

'What betrayal? And who did?', Shin failed to understand what the wolf meant.

The first thing that struck his mind was that Aaron betrayed Kira, but that was too unrealistic.

But in this world, nothing could be trusted because many things would tend to give unexpected results.

Logic did apply here, but in most of the cases, that logic failed because of unexpected behaviors!

So Shin thought about rechecking and reconfirming his doubts.

He asked the system, 'System, check how many members of Biola Clan have died here...'

'Ding'

[ Searching... ]

The system started searching for all the members of the Biola Clan. It took some time because the Biola Clan's members weren't registered in the system.

The system had to go into Shin's inner consciousness to see all the members and register them into the system.

After searching and matching the shapes, figures, and characteristics, the system finally gave a notification.

'Ding'

[ Search completed ]

[ Number of members of Biola Clan that got killed due to fire: 153 ]

"Huh...?"

"That many? Surely, Aaron wouldn't have betrayed, it was just me making up things."

And when he had convinced himself that he was wrong, the very next notification of the system confirmed his suspicion!

[ 153 members of Biola Clan died and approximately 848 members survived ]

"..."
