The Ruined Death Knight

Chapter 102 - Alpha Predator

A cloud of dust was raised through the air.

In the place where the third-eyed wolfs and Danzel were now a pile of rubble lying motionless there.

But that soon changed.

Though the middle of the pile of rocks dead mana was seeping out with each second the mana growing bigger.

And when the dead mana resembled burning flames, the rock at top of such mana was pushed to the side with a tall dark figure emerging out of there.

"Ugh... to think that I would bury myself once again. At least it worked this time around.." Danzel grumbled to himself.

After taking a glance at the several notifications that came, he moved at top of the rumble and shook the trapped dirt off his armor.

"So annoying, after I'm even done with those dogs I will have to clean the dirt trapped in the armor." Patting lightly his armor, he look closely at the window with the notifications.

Receiving seven notifications in total he could tell that one wolf beneath the rubble  was still hiding with either being close to death or pretending to be dead.

`Count yourself lucky for this one, as I find it annoying to dig you out of there.´ Danzel thought while focusing his attention towards the two other wolves that collided with each other and the mouth-wounded wolf.

"Those are much better targets..." Guiding the mana in his body towards his legs, he used [Leap] to jump at them, closing their distance until they wereseven meters away from him.

A feeling of strong dread befell upon both of those two third-eyed wolves, but instead of running away, they started to growl at him and even put their own killing intent towards him.

One had to know that the dense bloodlust that Danzel was emitting was so disgusting strong through the help of [Sin of Wrath] that the bodies of the third-eyed wolfs were shaking no stop.

It seemed their actions and body spoke two totally different languages.

While one was pressing the gas into a void less hole, the other one was smashing the breaks of the vehicle with all his four pawns while screaming internally out of despair.

Which those expression's alone made Danzel wonder if the wolves had some kind of suicidal disorder.

"Growl!

"Woof!"

Both seemingly terrified third-eyed wolves rushed towards Danzel barring their teeth towards him.

If a normal person were to watch his scene they would already crap their butts and probably feint of fear.

But that sight in Danzel's opinion looked like two small dogs walking under the guillotine willingly.

"They are hopeless..." Raising Veren towards his side, he swung at the approaching third-eyed wolf right towards the head. Resulting in cutting through the head sideways.

Taking the opportunity that his fellow wolf created, he leaped at Danzel who already swung the long sword.

But before it could fully approach Danzel, the dark crystal shield glowed with dark green light and came smashing into the other wolf's head.

*Crack!

"Wo-of..." 

With a caved-in head, the wolves dropped dead after a pitiful yelp.

[You received 5000 XP]

"..." Staring at the two dropped dead third-eyed wolves in front of him for a moment, he turned around and gazed at the first third-eyed wolf that he wounded.

"Woof~" The third-eyed wolf who received Danzel's gaze whipped pitifully.

As soon as the wolf made a step back away from Danzel, his red third eye twitched to all directions without showing any signs of stopping.

The wolf's whole body started to shake as it was thrown into ice-cold water.

Danzel in turn just stood there observing the third-eyed wolf's reaction.

`Why does their red-eye twitch like that? Was I right with them having a suicidal disorder?´ As he was trying to make sense of what that wolf was doing, the wolf's red eyes started to bleed suddenly.

"A Wooooh~!" The third eye wolf went into a sitting position and howled to the air with his wounded mouth.

As the howling of the third-eyed stopped, it turned around and started running away.

"You!" Danzel who was expecting something to happend cursed out loud as the wolf just howled and made a run for it!

His dark green mana together with the dark dead mana traveled through the Verens blade, readying a [Gale Mana Blade] towards the running wolf.

Raising the Veren blade who was engulfed with both moving mana around it, he was about to release the wind blade upon the wolf who was 15 meters away from him now.

But Danzel halted his swing as he saw something.

The wolf which was running straight at top speed was suddenly send flying with incredible speed to the left side.

The wolf who had his bones cracked all around his body, soon hit one of the massive trees.

*Baaah!

As if a mosquito full of blood splashed to a wall, a huge amount of blood was splashed at the tree as the third-eyed wolf fell like a broken doll who had his strings cut.

"Huh?" Danzel stared at what just happend with disbelieve.

`What just happend!?´

To him, what just happend looked no different to the wolf being sent flying by seemingly nothing!

As he was about to look through his surroundings, he noticed the footprints that were in the direction where the wolf was running towards.

Which were at least four times bigger than the third-eyed wolves self!

What shocked Danzel the most was that another footprinting appeared out of thin air towards his directions just now!

"Don´t tell me..." As Danzel strengthened his grip on Verens hilt and kept the mana in the blade.

Exactly 10 meters away from him a giant figure was starting to appear as if it was gaining the original color that it once had.

After the giant figure was at least two times taller than Danzel regained his color, turning fully visible.

Danzel cursed internally.

`Crap did the dad of those things come out!´

The giant wolf who was twice as tall resembled the third-eyed wolfs but unlike them. This wolf's iris color was pure gold with the outside part being the same red color as the other wolves.

The toe bones of all his legs seemed to go outside the skin itself which made it resemble some bone armor. Not only the wolf's legs, but the neck who was a lot longer from the other wolves had rows of bones that were flexible enough to move his massive head without piercing his throat.

For a second Danzel thought that his massive wolves were one of the undead with all his exposed bones.

But after taking a better look at the giant wolf's chest shrinking and expanding from time to time, it clearly showed at it was breathing, thus in Danzel's mind he crossed it being a undead out of the list.

"How can such a thing become so big..." As he said that, he noticed the muscles of the wolve flexing.

The moment he noticed that he imminently shot his [Gale Mana Blade] towards the giant wolves.

*Fsheeeen!

Seeing that, the wolves accelerated towards the coming wind blade with impressive speed.

With a small sidestep, the dark green wind blade barely scratched the wolf's side without disturbing his speed at all.

"This thing..."

The wolves raised one of his legs and swung them at Danzel's side.

With the bones that were on his feet together with his size, the four toe bones were no different from four massive scythes with the support of a four-meter-tall wolve.

Luckily the wolf's attack was simple and thus predictable.

But that didn´t mean that it was easily dodged.

Danzel just in time managed to put up his dark crystal shield to his shied, completely caught the scythe-like toe.

Unfortunately, though, he was shortly pushed back and threw to the side 5 meters away from his position.

Danzel who barely caught himself from falling looked at the giant wolf with wary.

"This thing..." His ethereal eyes stared sharply at the giant wolves.

And with an internal command, a whole new status appeared in front of him.
