CHAPTER 33: MOON AND WIND

Chapter 33: Moon and Wind

Arthur:

[Unfortunately, you did not obtain a Skill Book]

Who needs a skill of a trash like him? And I am still in a beast form with Rage Mode.

A wolf rushed running toward me visibly since he had no mana. He lunged with his claws toward my face, so I raised the sword which was still hot to block the attack.

The sword cut his claws like tofu, making the wolf retreat baring his fangs.

I advanced toward him with short steps; he used his other claws to strike me. Easily, I raised my left hand and stopped his claws before they reached me.

I raised my sword which was in my right hand and brought it down vertically on his face, cutting from the top of his left eye to the side of his right cheek.

"Ugh... Ughhh..." The White Night Wolf retreated in pain and turned wanting to escape.

"Where do you think you’re running?" I held the sword as if I wanted to throw it, pulled my hand backward using the momentum, and sent the sword flying strongly toward the wolf’s head.

The sword hit his head from the side, putting him dead on the spot.

[Assistant System]

[You have killed a monster of Elite Rank]

[You have gained 300 points]

[Level 5 (570/1600)] — [Level 5 (870/1600)]

The light red color disappeared from me with the transformation of my beast form.

[You have reached your limit in mana usage, using more than this and you won’t stand on your feet]

Alright, I’ll be careful.

[Assistant System]

[You have met the requirements to activate your ability]

[You learned, then created]

[Skill]

[Skill I Thermal Sword (Level 1)]

[Description: A sword of high heat. It doesn’t matter what sword you hold. As long as you have mana, you have a thermal sword.

Mana Use: 2]

[Level 1 — Level 2

Condition: Continuous use.]

Wow... a skill worthy of attention. I went toward the wolf’s corpse, which was melting blood, grabbed the hilt of the sword, and pulled it out of its head.

I placed it in its sheath.

As soon as I placed the sword in the sheath, I saw a white light on my right side while my chest was facing the wooden wall in front of me not far away.

The light collided with something, making the ground shake and dust rise.

"What is this attack, for god’s sake?"

Terius:

"Can I ask for compensation?" I looked at a giant wolf with moving fur and blue eyes.

The wolf sat at the entrance of the destroyed camp, looking at me silently.

"Hmm... you don’t want to talk to me? Or you don’t know how to speak? Looks like you’re new to the True Lord rank." I held the hilt of my sword.

"What’s happening in the forest that even a being of your strength has to leave its area and search for food? There was no alert or even a threat, everything happened in total secrecy. Maybe it’s just bad luck, I should have listened to Dark."

"[Wind Ability] – Great Wind Blade Skill." After pulling my sword from its sheath, I sent my attack, a large green wave.

It headed toward the True Lord, but was blocked by a pure white wall. The wall wasn’t even scratched.

Even the atmosphere started to cool and give a blue tone.

"One of my strongest offensive skills didn’t scratch the wall." I frowned in worry.

"Hmm? Your [Moon Magic] ability is really strong." I raised my head to see a small moon coming toward me from above.

"[Wind Ability] – Great Wind Blade Skill."

"[Wind Ability] – Compressed Wind Shield Skill."

Damn you, two attacks? I sent the wind blade to cut the moon in half. At the same time, I placed a green wind shield in the air to block the wolf’s claws.

The shield couldn’t resist and shattered into fragments. That gave me time to retreat backward and avoid his deadly claws.

I know that I really can’t face you, but that doesn’t mean I’ll surrender to death. I’ll fight until my last breath.

"[Wind Ability] – Compressed Wind Shield Skill."

More claws came down from above, striking the shield and breaking it without even resistance.

"Arghhh..." His palm came down on me, pressing me into the ground.

It’s a misjudgment from me; turns out his strength is more than I expected.

He treats me as if I’m a toy to him. I rose from the pit I was pressed into while he looked at me, covered in blood and my armor cracked in several places.

"Phew... Ugh... I think I have to use everything, to get even one chance against you."

The atmosphere around me changed and the wind started gathering toward me like a vacuum. I stabbed the tip of my sword into the ground, holding the hilt with both hands in a vertical stance.

"[Wind Ability] – King of Wind Skill." I released a skill of Rank B that consumed almost all of my mana.

Suddenly, as soon as it started forming, a semi-transparent green shield appeared on me, with a green cloak emerging over my shoulders down to my feet, and a green aura coming out with my eyes.

"[Wind Ability] – Wind Storm Skill." I held my sword and began spinning it quickly until a storm formed.

The edge of the storm struck the cold white wall, starting to scratch it.

"This isn’t enough."

"[Wind Ability] – Wind Cannon Skill." I placed the sword in its sheath, gripping the hilt tightly, and pronounced the name of the skill.

Then I pulled the sword from its sheath, releasing a strong wind cannon toward the white wall.

It succeeded in penetrating the wall and hitting the wolf. Finally... but! I felt disappointment. All this effort just to wound his skin.

A large red spot appeared on his fur, on his chest only.

Is there any hope?
