章 12: The Other Fight
'BOOM!'
Explosions and heat waves spread out in all directions. Clyde had just sent a fireball bigger than before toward the Silver Lunar Wolf.
But its tough fur proved to be able to withstand the attack.
"GRRRR..." the Wolf growled as it brandished its teeth.
Then its two fangs extended beyond its lower jaw. The fangs almost looked like frozen tusks.
In addition, the Wolf's fangs are not shaped like usual teeth. But it is clear like a block of ice sticking out of its mouth.
Clyde grinned. He felt like he was going to get an exciting fight now. Clyde landed on the roof of a shop.
His hands were still covered in smoldering flames. He saw two people standing and watching the fight from a distance.
"Hey! Don't worry about me!" shouted Clyde. "You guys just deal with the other monster!"
Mona and Reed looked at each other in bewilderment. It seemed that the man didn't need their help.
So instead of wasting time here, they'd thought it was better to help Eric and Rodney.
The two Regressors didn't think for too long. They immediately ran towards another battle and left Clyde alone with his Wolf.
The Wolf suddenly jumped at Clyde. Behind him, he left frozen trails.
Clyde greeted it by throwing fireballs the size of footballs.
But the running Wolf jumped to the side and was able to dodge the fireballs well.
Clyde noticed that the Wolf was getting faster and more agile. Yet he felt with this power, the Wolf still couldn't beat him.
The self-assured Clyde lunged fearlessly. He's confronting the Wolf monster head-on!
*BANG!*
Clyde collided with the Wolf. His hands hit the Wolf's two front paws.
Clyde could see its clear jaw and fangs right in front of his face.
But Clyde still grinned. This fight made him feel excited.
Clyde also knew that his strength was enough to hold the Wolf head on.
'This is my strength.'
The grin on his face grew wider. Flames shot out from Clyde's hands.
The Wolf screamed and jumped back.
Clyde dashed forward towards him and punch the Wolf with his hand covered in flames.
*BUAGH!*
The Wolf was tossed and bounced across the street before stopping.
As soon as it got to its feet, Clyde was already in front of it and hit the Wolf again. Makes it bounce even further.
"Is this supposed to be Rank B?! Ha ha ha!"
Clyde caught up with the Wolf and prepared to hit it again.
However, suddenly the Wolf opened its jaw.
Clyde's eyes widened. He wouldn't be able to escape.
When it came to that conclusion, instead of looking for a way to dodge, Clyde stretched his arms forward instead.
*CHOMP!*
The Wolf's jaw grabbed Clyde's hand.
Now Clyde's hand was inside the Wolf's mouth. He felt a chilling sensation begin to rapidly spread throughout his body.
Ice appeared and started to freeze the part of Clyde's bitten hand and the frost spread throughout his body.
Luckily, Clyde was wearing a Dark Night Coat so his body wasn't affected by the frost.
Now they were both locked in this situation.
However, this is exactly what Clyde wanted.
The hand that was inside the Wolf's mouth was still covered in flames.
Clyde smirked.
As if realizing how dangerous the situation was for it, the Wolf's eyes widened.
Unexpectedly smoke rose from inside the Wolf's mouth and hot air came out.
"You'll give me a good reward," Clyde muttered. As if to say goodbye.
*BWOOSHH!!!'*
Flames shot out from behind the Wolf's head breaking through its body.
The Wolf's body fell helplessly. The cold blue light in its eyes dimmed.
Its frozen fur began to melt. Clyde pulled his hand away from the Wolf's jaw.
Turns out he didn't suffer any injuries.
"Wow, this coat is amazing!"
Clyde admired his black coat. A notification appeared before Clyde's eyes.
[ Quest Complete! ]
[.Reward: B-grade Equipment: Honed Silk Coat, 300 Coins. ]
[ Rewards sent to Inventory. ]
After receiving the notification, Clyde nodded in satisfaction.
He wasn't very interested in the B-grade Equipment he got because it wasn't a weapon.
Clyde thought maybe he would give the coat to Asqa. He walked towards another fight.
However, as soon as he got closer, it turned out that their fight was not over.
Clyde decided to look from afar. He wanted to see how capable the four of them really were.
They didn't look like ordinary people.
Instead, they looked like experienced people in these situations.
That raised a question in Clyde's mind.
'How can they be this calm and ready to face the apocalypse?'
Seeing how they fought, seemed to confirm Clyde's suspicions. The four of them did have experience.
'Are they related to The Ender like me?'
Clyde couldn't rule out that possibility. Maybe they also know that there will be an apocalypse like this.
Clyde had no idea what The Ender was. There's no way they're just ordinary survival game developers.
The Ender might have been also involved with these four people. He had to find out later.
Suddenly, Asqa came out and approached Clyde. Clyde is quite surprised to realize Asqa's presence.
"Have you defeated the monster?" asked Asqa while looking in all directions.
Clyde glanced back. But that Silver Lunar Wolf's corpse had already disappeared.
"Yes. I've defeated our monsters."
In fact, Clyde didn't actually know which Wolf was for their Quest because suddenly another Wolf appeared.
But it doesn't matter. The important thing was that he killed the Silver Lunar Wolf and the quest was complete.
"Oh, right."
Clyde withdrew the B-grade equipment he had just obtained.
It was a soft white coat that was the complete opposite of his.
"For you." Clyde held out the coat to Asqa.
"What's this?" Asqa's eyes widened as she accepted the coat.
"Put it on," said Clyde.
Asqa wears it. As soon as she put on the coat, a notification appeared before her eyes.
[ Equipment Effect: Magic Power +1. ]
"Magic Power plus one?" Aska frowned.
"That must be the effect of the coat. That means your Magic Power has increased by one level," Clyde explained. "That's a good thing."
"Thank you." Aska smiled. She looks happy.
"Sure. You look good wearing that."
Suddenly a scream was heard. The two of them glanced at the battle.
They saw that one of the men from the group was bitten on the arm by the Wolf.
Then the Wolf threw him until he hit the wall of a building.
"That doesn't look good," said Clyde. "Let's go!"
He and Asqa ran together.
