Chapter 132: 132

*3rd person POV

"Kwaaaaang!!"

The golden wolf, whose skin and flesh had been ripped off in chunks, screamed. The gray wolf spat out his flesh and revealed his shiny teeth stained with blood as the golden wolf stumbled and showed his teeth.

"Grr! Grawrr!!"

The gray wolf, who had started rushing at the golden wolf, flinched and widened their distance by space jump.

"Cough, cough---! Your Majesty, are you okay---!!", shouted Galenos, who had thrown his own sword and hit the gray wolf's hind leg. Ignoring the blood dripping from his lips, Galenos managed to get himself up.

*Fwoo*

Water droplets covered his and Karmeut's wounds. Feeling his wound slowly recovering, Galenos turned his gaze to Miel.

Miel, whose complexion had turned pale blue now, was breathing heavily and struggled to stand up properly so that he had to lean against a pillar.

Anyone could tell that he was at his limit. It was amazing that the spirits hadn't disappeared.

A sharp howl rang in their ears. It was because Rainelle stopped the gray wolf from trying to rush over Karmeut again.

The gray wolf fired magic attacks, but not a single one hit the black bird effectively through the black feathers. Rather, the black bird squealed sharply and scratched the gray wolf's back.

"Kwaaaaaang!!"

The gray wolf howled in annoyance. Shaking his fur, which was now dark enough to be called black, the wolf revealed his fangs.

The wolf's gaze, which was glaring at the black bird hovering overhead with a sharp cry, turned to Karmeut.

The gray wolf had only one goal. To kill the enemy who was his kin and his competitor. In his head, it was the only way to protect his female.

When an electric shock was aimed towards the staggering golden wolf, the said wolf just shuddered as he could not escape and could not even scream.

Seeing the golden wolf collapse, the gray wolf began to run toward him yet again.

‘Now is the chance. This is a golden opportunity to bite the scruff of his neck, block his breath, and tear him to shreds.’

Teeth as white as ivory were exposed.

When the gray wolf was roaring at it was about to bite the golden wolf by the nape of his neck,

"---!!"

*Tup,*

A strong force grabbed the wolf's snout. At the same time, feeling a weight on him, the gray wolf growled and joggled his legs, trying to open his muzzle.

However, the black bird's feet, clutching the wolf's snout tightly, were strong.

"Kaaaaaaaakk!!"

An intricate pattern of gold floated above the black feathers. She lay underneath the body of the gray wolf, but the black bird cried sharply and clutched at the wolf's snout.

She clenched it so tightly that the gray wolf couldn't even open his mouth.

He hit the body of the bird with his front paws to get the black bird off, but the black bird just flapped her wings as if the wolf's claws weren’t much.

Her other feet grabbed the wolf near his ribs and she flapped her wings a few times, bringing the wolf to the ground. The grip was so strong that the wolf struggled on all fours, forced to swallow a bark into his mouth.

The gray wolf trembled when the sharp black beak clamped his neck. The golden pattern on the body of the black bird began to emit a stronger light.

The black bird's purple eyes flashed as she flapped her wings, turning to make her be on top, crushing the wolf beneath her. As if she wouldn't let go even if it moved just a little bit, she gave more strength to her feet. The gray wolf's eyes lingered on the black bird's due to that action.

*Pajijijijik!!*

Sparks so powerful, that her vision turned white, flew around her.

"Kaakkk!!"

The black bird flew up with a piercing cry. The tips of the black feathers must have been burned, because with each flap of her wings, whitish ash fluttered.

As the golden pattern flashed, the body of the black bird, which had been billowing with white steam, was back to normal. Seeing that, the gray wolf lowered his posture and growled.

The figure of the gray wolf, which had bristled his fur to the fullest, disappeared in an instant.

The black bird made a sharp cry and flew backward. But still, the gray wolf appeared from behind the black bird which allowed him to land an attack on her back. She let out a choke.

Moving fast, the black bird's claws flashed as it swooped down to catch the gray wolf, who was free-falling. Just before the big, sharp talons snatched the wolf, the wolf disappeared.

When the wolf appeared on the ground and released another electric charge, the black bird flapped her wings and got out of his range.

The black bird and the gray wolf made a threatening noise. Their hair stood on end, while their teeth and claws flashed as if they were about to end each other.

"Namuel-!!"

The movements of the gray wolf and the black bird stopped at the screaming voice. The black bird, who lost her balance for an instant, flew higher.

Held back by Sedarun, Adriana's face flushed red from how much she had used it.

Adriana, who breathed strenuously as if her throat hurt, opened her mouth once more,

"Namuel."

It was small, almost a whisper, but the gray wolf's ears pricked up at the voice amplified through the wind.

Adriana yanked her hand and pulled away from Sedarun. After confirming that the gray wolf had stopped moving, Sedarun had indeed relaxed his hold, so Adriana was able to release herself easily.

"Namuel."

Once again, Adriana whispered. At that whisper, the gray wolf pricked up his ears and licked his nose with his tongue.

‘It's the smell of my female. It's sweet, and I want to smell it forever... The smell of MY female.’

Sniffing, the gray wolf looked at Adriana. He raised his nose high and smelled the scent mingling in the wind.

‘A sweet, familiar smell. She is my only female.’

As the gray wolf's gaze turned their way, Sedarun tightened his hold on the dagger in his hand.

The gray wolf, looking at Adriana, was defenseless. If they attacked at this time, they would surely be able to deliver a fatal blow.

But could that really not be an act of pouring oil into a fire?

It was a wolf that was able to run well even with a sword stuck in his hind leg. In fact, the sword flinched and was pushed back little by little like he was recovering.

Even if they hit a vital spot, there was no guarantee that he will not recover. Rather, there was a high possibility of triggering the wolf’s mood, which had barely softened.

Ignoring Sedarun and Miel, who were watching him nervously, the wolf slowly approached Adriana.

 

*Adriana’s POV

"...Did you eat it for me? Namuel."

Adriana spoke to draw Namuel's attention to her.

‘As it is, if he calms down and comes to his senses, we could end it here. Karmrut seemed to be seriously injured, but he isn't dead yet.

So now, now, if I could end it here.’

At Adriana's courageous approach to him, the gray wolf licked his snout. The fur of the wolf, which had been standing and bristling, was slowly softening.

It was when the gray wolf took a step forward, slowly swinging his tail,

"---!! Awoo, woo---!!"

Black smoke enveloped the wolf's head. The gray wolf struggled and tried to clear the smoke, but the smoke clung to the wolf's head relentlessly.

 

*Namuel’s POV

[‘Look around. They're trying to kill you with your female as bait.’]

The low whispering was eating away at the wolf's soul. It was a tempting, yet dangerous voice.

The gray wolf gritted his teeth and looked around. There were a lot of fixed eyes on him.

Fearful, and vicious gazes.

‘They are trying to kill me.

How dare you try to kill me when my female is by my side---!!’

The gray wolf raised his head and roared. At the same time, several layers of defensive magic spread around Adriana.

"---!! Namuel!!"

Adriana hurriedly approached and pounded the surface of the defense magic with her fist, but it wasn't magic that could be pierced with just that.

Ignoring the distressed female voice, the gray wolf bared his teeth and growled.

‘Until I got rid of all the enemies around me, I couldn’t take good care of my female.’

The eyes that turned red were fixed on the black bird flying in the sky. Dozens of fireballs appeared around the gray wolf's body, who had bared his teeth and growled ferociously.

Seeing this, the black bird flapped her wings and tried to fly higher. No matter how much she could ignore magic to some extent, it was dangerous to receive such a number with her body.

But contrary to the black bird's expectations, the magic flew to the wrong place.

The fireballs that had been hovering around the gray wolf's body scattered in all directions.

Some knights were looking for an opportunity to attack.

"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!"

The knights rolled on the floor with a burning smell.

It was when the atmosphere was disturbed by the wolf's actions that changed his target in an instant,

"Guh---!!"

Realizing that the gray wolf had disappeared from sight, Sedarun swung his dagger. Unfortunately, the assassin's dagger shattered beneath the gray wolf's teeth.

"Khh!!"

The gray wolf had no intention to let the human male, who was by his female side, live.

Seeing the man managing to escape his teeth, the wolf blew electric-type magic to paralyze his movement and then bit his shoulder swiftly.

Sedarun gritted his teeth, took out a dagger from his waistband, and drove it deep into the wolf's shoulder until only the hilt was left seen. However, it seemed to be intensifying the wolf’s anger. Just as the wolf's muzzle was about to bite harder,

The black bird swooped down to grab the gray wolf by the neck. The gray wolf quickly let go of the man  he was biting, moved backward slightly, and then bit the black bird's leg the moment she came close.

"Keeee!!"

The black bird screamed. She screamed in pain as his teeth gnawed at her bones. In response, the wolf tried to tighten his jaw, but all he could do was not open his jaw when a dagger was stuck in his cheek the next moment.

 

*3rd person POV

“Huu---”

Breathing heavily, Sedarun cupped his shoulder with one hand. ---His right shoulder had been bitten, so his dagger went in shallow.

Sedarun: ‘At this rate, I will only be a burden.’

Judging so, the assassin leaped back.

Sedarun: ‘Right now, this is the limit of what I can do.’

The black bird, who came to her senses in the gap created by Sedarun, fixed her gaze.

When she tried to peck the wolf with her beak to pluck out his eyes, the wolf quickly backed away.

In the meantime, the black bird hurriedly flapped her wings and flew higher. The bite was so deep that blood was dripping down her leg.

The gray wolf growled, blood dripping from his muzzle.

Namuel: ‘I have to get rid of the annoying black bird so that I can easily kill my enemies.’

Fireballs began to form again around the wolf's body. Seeing that, the black bird hovering in the air bristled her feathers.

Rainelle: ‘It’s dangerous. But, what if the magic generated this time is aimed at Karmeut instead of me?’

The black bird, who had been agonizing for a while with worry and fear, glared at the gray wolf. Then, as if determined, she folded her wings and began to dive toward the wolf.

That number was dangerous, but the flames were the least effective. So, it was because she judged that it would be advantageous to attack the gray wolf as she tried avoiding as much as possible.

"Kakkk?!"

Suddenly, the movement of the black bird stopped. A silvery web-like thing was tying up the black bird's body.

It was as if he had expected the black bird's judgment. The gray wolf's eyes gleamed red.

Purple eyes were blazing with rage as she watched the wolf growling ferociously, baring his teeth.

The black bird flapped her wings softly while grinding her beak. A few strands were severed by the force, but it was difficult to escape.

Fireballs shot at the black bird in unison. To protect her, the high-level water spirit blocked them on the black bird's path. The next moment, the water spirit received dozens of fireballs and then disappeared as bubbles.

"Cough, cough---!!"

Due to the impact of the forced withdrawal of the high-level spirits, Miel collapsed while vomiting blood. ---But still, a few fireballs were coming flying at the black bird.

The black bird, who had been ripping off the silver threads with her beak, flapped her wings even harder and tried to escape somehow. However, the speed of the approaching fireball was much faster than that.

Resigning that there was no escape, the black bird closed its eyes tightly. Fortunately, it was flame-based magic, so the decision was made based on the judgment that she could endure without much damage.

A booming sound was heard. But the fact that the shock did not arrive made the black bird open her eyes. What reflected in those purple eyes was a golden wolf, whose fur had blackened, falling down.
