Capítulo 20: Hidden attack
Volkner didn't expect the wolf to understand what he said, but as if he knew by instinct that the deadliest enemy had just appeared, he turned his eyes on him.
Growl
The Persian leapt from the ground, straight for Volkner.
Volkner rolled to one side quickly, out of the way where the Persian was attacking, and swung his sword. His teeth nearly cut his throat.
What saved him was some vines that came out of the ground, hindering Persian's movements.
That scratch alone cut off 40 health from him.
"Volkner, run away! My Pidgey PP is gone, so I can't help you with Sand Attack!" Vanessa screamed.
"Shoot. What kind of support doesn't know how to manage your PP?" he spoke to himself.
Since Vanessa was fully assigned to support, she should always have reserved a sufficient amount of PP in case of an emergency. Otherwise, someone could end up dead or, at worst, the entire group would face annihilation.
'But she spent it all on Seera's escape...'
Volkner believed that Vanessa must have something up her sleeve when she offered to come to Seera's rescue. To his dismay, however, all she, a supporter by nature, had was heart.
The current situation didn't give Volkner time to blame her. The wolf was growling at him.
After a few flames from Ray with his ratata, no boosting power came. Apparently, it only had a few support moves and fast attack.
Only Parker was shooting arrows from a distance while his Spearow kept circling the Persian through the air, attracting his attention. The wolf was left bleeding, but Parker's futile attempts only led to him intensifying his aggression.
"Come on, you bitch!" Volkner swung his sword and confronted the wolf.
Howl
Screaming, the wolf leapt at him. From that moment on, Volkner's pose and movements changed dramatically.
His legs were glued to the floor as his waist and shoulders rocked back and forth. Like a breeze, Volkner let the ferocious wolf pass.
"I'll be a fool if I die here."
Volkner was able to predict the wolf's next move, and a single wound wasn't as much as he'd feared.
"I know I can defeat him."
Volkner loosened his grip on the sword on purpose.
"Time to use it"
Am sorry
The wolf groaned in pain. Even after Volkner sacrificed some of his power in exchange for higher speed, the physical damage dealt by his sword was substantial.
"Damn it!"
Volkner was also hurt every time the wolf grabbed him. His health from 200 dropped to 50.
He was already covered in his own blood.
"Sorry Volkner! I can't fix it. It's moving too fast!"
Parker's low agility and Spearow made it impossible to hit the wolf, which moved like lightning. His only move at the current level was Attack and Peck.
"I will fight too."
Seera came to Volkner. She had already been injured when she was chased by the wolf, her life less than half full.
Stumbling on shaky legs, Volkner said, "Now, listen. You all must run to safety while I can still cover you.
"But..."
"It's the only chance you have. Now!"
Parker and Seera looked at each other, but their legs showed no sign of escape.
Then Volkner muttered coldly, "You fools! What's the point of sacrificing your life for a stranger?"
Parker felt like crying. For the record, Volkner could have escaped death if he had decided to do so. He could have run from the wolf to the City gate, where the guards would protect him from the threat.
Instead, Volkner approached, held his sword and his stance, and faced the wolf for his teammates, who he had never seen hours before.
"Volkner." Seera's eyes were watering. She, innocent and sensitive, was deeply touched by Volkner's heroic act.
Looking at the wolf that was staring at them with pure hatred, Volkner said firmly. "If you want to stay here, so be it. I'll do my best to fight the bitch. Still, you should get out of here the moment I'm killed.
"Yea."
"Promise me you will."
"OK."
Seera and Parker walked away, creating a stage, and Volkner began a bloody fight against the wolf, who still posed a serious threat.
Volkner's health dropped to 40 and before long, it dropped to 20. The iron sword continued to miss the wolf by inches.
The Persian was bleeding so white, but he was still steady, but Volkner looked like he was going to fall at any moment.
Vanessa and Ray realized that Volkner's life had finally reached the life-threatening moment, below ten percent.
Parker's heart raced and Seera's did. They tried to entice the wolf's aggression, but he knew that Volkner was the one to kill, completely neglecting the smaller players.
The ratata and spearow were at a critical point of dying, they preferred their avatar to die over their pokemon. It was better to go 1 day without playing than to lose a level.
Vanessa's Pidgey no longer had PP for attacks, it had to rest.
Ekans was useless in this situation where it couldn't get the poison right.
The fight was fierce. One more hit from the wolf, and Weed would die.
If Volkner died, he would lose some items from his inventory, would be penalized by being denied access to Royal Pokemon Online for the next twenty-four hours, all because Volkner decided to sacrifice his life to save a bunch of strangers.
The wolf chuckled, sensing he had the advantage of his archenemy. His fang was collapsing.
Growl
When the wolf sprang to kill Volkner with its final blow, an incredibly fast attack came out of some trees and hit the Persian in the ribs.
Before Volkner's eyes, a cascade of message windows opened.
