章 15: Infernal Lightning Wolves
We start making our way into the ninth floor of the dungeon very careful of our surroundings. I'm in stealth and Aurelia cast a small spell that made the light go around us, thus making us invisible, getting Illusion magic in the process. It didn't take us long before we found a pack of infernal lightning wolves, and they were increadibly aggressive. From what I was seeing they were currently standing over the corpse of a bear, which is a whole sub rank higher than them. As I thought about it though it wasn't suprising they could, a pack of low B-rank could easily take out a regular B-rank. I start to put those useless thoughts out of my head as I get ready for battle, infusing all my body with ice and lightning. I can only put ice in my weapon though due to monsters being able to absorb the lightning.
I then feel a series of buffs placed on me by Aurelia, and a few moments after get the all clear to go. I go forward with an immense burst of speed as ice spreads out around me, and I blitz forward like a lightning bolt. The first wolf almost had time to react just as I sent its head flying in the air. As I reach the center of the pack the battle starts to look like a carefully coreographed dance. Like a feather in the wind I faught amoung the wolves, because it wasn't a surprise attack though I wasn't able to end them in one hit anymore, due to their strength.
As I weave through the pack I make occasional counter attacks as Aurelia supports me with occasional metal spears, I attack the injured wolves in unison with her. This goes on for several minutes until the last wolf in the pack dies by a head shot metal spear spell.
"That was a lot harder than I imagined it was going to be, not dangerous yet, but definitely would make you think before attacking a higher ranked pack or horde," now understanding the dangers a more powerful group could present.
"It definitely is a lot more dangerous, but it is also a lot more exhilerating to fight packs," Aurelia exclaimed to me, the exitement clear in her voice. "It's kind of like a game of chess, trying to control their movements through the movement and attacks we do."
"You could say that again, I always thought that was the most fun part of the VR games we played back on earth." I mentioned this as I thought about the games we played and the player wars our team would get involved in from time to time. "It's a little weird not having Derek here, do you thing he's okay, you know with everything that's apparently happening on earth?"
"I don't know, but chances aren't good for him, especially considering it's a God interfering with earth. The only question is if they have made their move yet," I commented after thinking for a moment. "There's no point in talking about something we don't know will or already has happened. We'll just have to play a game of wait and see."
Aurelia took a moment to sigh saying, "Ya I know, it's just really hard you know, he's my twin brother after all. I'm just really worried about him, his wife is great and I wouldn't wish him dying on her either."
"Ya, I get what your saying, they seem so happy together. I wish I could find something like they have," I said slowly getting quieter and more red as I continued my last sentence, till I couldn't even be heard.
"What did you just say Tess?" Aurelia asked me, not having heard the end of my sentence.
"No no no nothing! nothing important, don't worry about it," I exclaimed to her in a slightly flustered tone of voice.
"Okay," she said in a slightly sing songy voice, "whatever you say Tess." A hint of newfound understanding hidden in her voice as she smiled out of my view.
What I didn't notice was a small snap of a twig behind me, because I was to flustered to notice. Aurelia turned around as her eyes wide when she saw the huge tiger pouncing towards Tess.
