Chapter 408 A Test!
-----
After reaching the Wolf Steppes, we were quickly greeted by a thick mist of Mana everywhere. This was because this area of the world was named "Haunt" a danger zone where monsters were able to breed and grow incredibly quickly by the remaining Miasma that had seeped and contaminated the area.
This was a wolf-breeding area with many powerful wolf-type monsters, but it was in these faraway lands that people with robes had been seen wandering around. Because of this, my parents and the rest of the adults decided to kill three birds with one stone by coming here with us.
They'll let us fight monsters to train and grow stronger, hunt down the massive wolf population before they get out of control and attack the fiefdom nearby, and also look for clues and perhaps the hideout of these guys.
And right now, we were fighting tons of Wolves. They were black-furred wolves with bright red eyes, and had amazing reflexes, strength, and size. A single bite from one of them would be more than enough to chomp down our heads.
This was a new trial as the monsters of the dungeon were not near as lethal as these wolves. Although we could count on our parents if things got very, very bad, they were not going to intervene as much either and were going to simply observe.
This felt like a test, in some way, as they were testing how strong we have grown to be able to fight this level of threat, a massive pack of wolves!
"Foo! Foo! FOO!"
Naturia was on fire, as we continued fighting the enormous Black Horned Wolves and killing them. Each wolf gave me between 600 to 800 EXP each, and thanks to the boost of Spiritual Blessing and other Skills, Naturia was leveling up constantly.
FLASH!
Her body quickly shone brightly with a golden aura once more, as she suddenly gained even more power, her seeds became incredibly strong, as these bullets began piercing through the bodies of several wolves at once.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Seeing the wolves weakened by Naturia's powerful Bullet Seeds, I quickly brought Ignatius to my side.
"Ignatius, let's finish them!"
"Alright!"
The small dragon roared, flying across the skies and unleashing a storm of flames that exploded into countless fireballs, consuming half the wolves in front of us, which were eight, while I enchanted by sword with the element of Light by channeling it with Alice's powers, and slashing through the other four wolves' necks one by one.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Thanks to Naturia's attacks, the wolves were weakened enough for my fast, Flashing Blade Arts to work on their hard fur and muscles, which I had a rather hard time slicing through at the beginning because I was surprised due to their toughness.
"GRAOOOHH…!"
With the last groan of pain, the fourth wolf I slain died out, as its enormous head rolled over the bloodied grassy floor. More wolves were coming as we fought, but Aquarina and Zack were fighting as well, channeling the power of their Familiars and Spirits to aid them in battle. We had to use every single trick we had to fight against these ferocious and intelligent beasts, who were able to abuse weak points and even see through our guard, if we lowered it for an instant, they would immediately attack from behind.
It was nice that the monsters had a very low perception of spirits, so even when they were fighting with me, they were not being as targeted, they were also able to naturally float in midair so they could evade attacks easily. Although sometimes a wolf would catch Ignatius and bite through him, but his defensive skills would save him from lethal damage and then he would be healed by Naturia's Skills.
[Calculating EXP Total Earned…]
[You have defeated [Black Horned Wolf] x14]
[You earned 10200 EXP]
[Ignatius] earned 18500 EXP]
[Ignatius] has reached Level 2!]
[Ignatius] has reached Level 3!]
[Naturia] earned 18500 EXP]
[Naturia] has reached Level 3!]
[Naturia] has reached Level 4!]
[Naturia] has reached Level 5!]
[Naturia] has reached Level 6!]
Wow, Ignatius is taking a while to level up now, he needs around 10k more EXP with each Level, I guess that's what an evolved Spirit will need. I am beginning to not envy the bonus EXP they get when they'll need so much. Naturia is at her first stage so she's flashing through levels. Four more Levels and she'll be able to reach Level 10 and Evolve, just like Ignatius did.
"GRARR!"
However, there was no time to think about these things, as a ferocious trio of Black Horned Wolves leaped towards us viciously, attempting to take advantage of the few seconds I took to look at the System notifications. I asked Alice to turn them off for now as I realized it might distract me too much, as I unleashed a slash of black fire from my sword.
FLAAASH!
"AGROOOHH…!"
The wolves groaned in agony, the golden flames were not enough to kill them as they were very tough, but these flames burned through their fur and cursed them, slowing them down in the process.
"ROAR!"
Ignatius roared valiantly, as his tiny claws shone bright red, flames surging from within them.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Using his [Dragon Claw] Skill, Ignatius slashed through the wolves bodies, burning through their fur and skin at the same time, as Naturia supported us from behind by shooting Bullet Seeds.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
"HYAAA!"
And as I saw the opportunity, I unleashed consecutive piercing attacks using my sword by imbuing it once more with Light, this was the element the Black Horned Wolves were the weakest against after all!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"GRAARR…!"
One wolf quickly died on the spot, while the others desperately tried to pierce my body with their sharp, black-colored horns. I evaded them and then slashed through the neck of both of them with a single, reinforced swing of my sword.
SLAAASH!
As their heads rolled, the presence of something stronger began to emerge from behind our group, the big wolf overseeing the fight suddenly decided to fight us.
"AWOOOOO!"
